Possibly the idea of a few simple articles of ahso- _ lute necessity originated in the descrip- tion given in the Bible of the Prophet's chamber-the bed, the table, the steel, the candlestick, were in all probability the usual number of pieces allowed to as home, even in `homes of the wealthy, in those days. But now when guests are received, they -should at least be treated as well as the family, and even a little extra attention would not be amiss. Have the room as pleasant and cheery as possible. If there is a closet in it, do not think it necessary to ll it-up with the family garments that look to the visitor's eye as if they were destin- .~od to hang there for years . A guest does not enjoy living in her trunk, and merely a hook or two stranded off in _a dark corner on "which to hang her choicest garments, are very unsatisfac- tory.
