The Mythical American Again.
A Continental hotel-keeper recently
confided the following story to a
friend of mine: Some years ago. after
Queen Victoria had been staying at »
certain hotel, a wealthy American
called on the proprietor and signified
his desire to sleep, if it could be man
aged, in the same apartment, the same
and, if poasible, the same bed
clothes as those which held the sacred
person of her majesty before they had
been sent to the wash, Money was no
object to him. What would it cost?
The hotel keeper was equal to the
occasion. He thought it coull be ar
ranged for twenty pounds. A bargain
was struck on these terms. The mil
lionaire duly arrived, and retired to
the royal couch. No doubt he thor
oughly enjoyed his night's rest, and
the prospect of subsequently olectrify-
ing his friends with the story of his
regal experience, His pleasure must
have been somewhat marred when he
discovered later on that Her Britannic
Majesty always travelled with her own
