ForBeokoftheEyeFrceask Are people who live In hotels less honest than those who stick to their own home and fireside? The stewards of the big New York hotels, who each year spend hundreds of thousands of dollars replacing missing silverware and furnishings, say they are. The ravages of souvenir-hunting guests as well as college boys and girls with a fad for collecting hotel silver, together with the wear and tear of the regular routine business costs each large hotel between $600,000 and >700,000 a year. The hotel managers hold their guests responsible for the loss of silverware stolen by employees, saying the servants just imitate the guests. In addition to the losses through souvenir-hunters thousands upon thou sands of dollars worth of small table ware, oyster forks, butter plates, spoons and bread-spreaders are over looked and thrown away. The hotel refuse is carefully examined before it leaves the hotel and an average of half a barrel of ware is recovered each day. But in spite of all precau tions a good deal is thrown away. The next most costly item of ex pense is in the china and glassware. It costs one hotel more than $100,000 a year to keep itself in these two items of tableware. The linen item in one of the Fifth avenue hotels cost $95,000 when the hotel opened last year. Since that time more than $20,000 has been used to replenish the supply. All of this linen comes from the north of Ire land. The war has made it increasing ly difficult to get the right quality be cause most of the best flax in the world came from Belgium. In the same hotel $12,500 was spent for candle and lamp shades before the hotel was opened. In the past year $7,000 has been spent for new stock. As the shades range in price from $1 to $20 it is easy to see where the money goes. A small detail in the annual budget of a hotel is matches. In spite of the fact that electricity is used exclusive ly, 20,000 boxes are needed each month. And soap ! Last year one hotel used 28,420 cakes of soap. A monster new hotel is being erect ed in New York and the purchasing agent has been very busy laying in supplies. As a sample of his pur chases the following may be men tioned : 160,000 pieces of silver in one day, costing $243,000; 18,000 sheets and pillow cases ; 60,000 towels for rooms and 18,000 for the restaurant department. He is going to buy thou sands of beds, chairs, desks, hatracks, bookcases and other furnishings be fore he is finished, and in addition he is In the market for baby carriages, toothpicks, cooks’ caps, bath mats, safes and about ten dozen other things.

Deceiving. With pardonable pride a lady dis played a very ancient piece of house linen to her servant, saying: "Look, Bridget, at this tablecloth. It has been in our family for over 200 years."

Prison literature has many fine pro ductions to its credit in prose as well as poetry, says the London Chronicle. In his prison at Athens, Socrates com pleted his great argument for immor tality; in a Roman dungeon Galileo made some of his greatest discoveries. In his prison in the Wartburg castle Luther translated the New Testament into the German language. During his 12 years in Bedford jail Bunyan dreamed his immortal dream of the “Pilgrim’s Progress.” Sir Walter Raleigh wrote his fragmentary history of the world to beguile the long years of his imprisonment in the Tower of London. Much of the New Testament also Is prison literature. Some of the finest of the epistles of St Paul were written during his imprisonment at Rome, and the book of the Revelation of St. John was written while he was an exile in the island prison of Pat mos.
