saloon and second cabin passengers to-
day, but would hold the vessel until
a place was found where the steerage
passengers might pass their interval
of observation.
DR.. Cofer said that the accommoda-
tions of Hoffman and Swinburne ISL.
ands were taxed to capacity and he had
applied to the army transport service
Tor the use of transport until the
congestion of the quarantine quarters
on Swinburne and Hoffman islands had
been relieved. When all the passen-
gers are removed the Nieuw Amster-
dam will be fumigated.
Among the saloon passengers on
board the liner are Fritz Kreisler, the

him you certainly would have thought
that he must be hollow all the way
through. For once he had all the
honey he could eat, and he intended to
make the most of it. There was no
doubt about that; he intended to eat
every bit of it.
And he did, too. He kept right on
eating even after his stomach had be-
gun to swell out like balloon. He
ate and ate until there wasn't a
particle Of honey left Bits of stick
and dead leaves went into his greedy
mouth. but he didn't seem to mind.
He didn't even take the trouble to
cpis them out.
1T last there wasn't drop Of honey
left. Buster drew long breath, licke d
off his coat and paws as we'll as he
could. and then began to think Of a
nap. You know full stomach always
makes one sleepy. Being so full, he
was uncomfortable. He didn't feel at
ell like moving about. And 50 he
simply walked to the nearest thicket
of young hemlock trees, and there,
with a great sigh of contentment, he
lay down and in no time at all was
sound asleep.

THE great interest in
l. period furniture which
has so Influenced the decor
alton of our homes in the
past few years has stimu-
lated us to assemble the
most delightful of suites
which are either reproduc-
tions or adaptations Of
early American, Louis XVI.
or English furniture.
EARLY American furni-
"a ture has a dignity and
charm which is undeniable
and of course absolutely
in keeping with the colonial
architecture prevailing in
the eastern states.
-FOUR poster beds have
= the pineapple or simple
ball or torch post tops.
Highboys are reminiscent
Of days of gay and quaint
band-boXes, with the scroll
or box top. Ball and claw
feet, reproductions of old
brasses and the carved fans
on the drawers are those
features which have been
carried out with particular
care in low and highboys.
THE piquant Marie An
l. toinette and the ubiqui-
tous Louis XVI. cast their
spell over many charming
suites of walnut or of
enamel in soft, feminine
shades. The modern SIM
plicity Of line adapted from
the French is in keeping
with the interior decora-
ton so favored nowadays.
Ivory, gray, cream and
blue are the tones pre-
ferred, as they blend de-
lightfully with the shades
of rose or blue so frequent
ly used as the color scheme
of a bedroom.
MOST interesting is a
AVA =" B a c h lor'' suite,
planned strictly to meet the
needs of man. 1t is oak Of
a rich brown finish, simply
inlaid. The bureau, desk.
tables, and upholstered
chairs have been planned
with the comfort and neces-
sites of a man in view. It
is suggestive of the Eng
lish style so often preferred
in a mans bedroom.
