The Limit of Luxury.
Commodore Peary, discussing hotels
with a Washington reporter, said:
"Modern hotels are becoming more and
more luxurious. Every bedroom now
has its private bath and dressing-room. 1884
These hotels can't do enough to make
you comfortable."
Commodore Peary stroked his mous-
tache and smiled.
"In fact," he said, "when I stopped,
just after my return from the North
Pole, at Ford's luxurious hotel, Mr. Ford
bowed and rubbed his hands, and said
anxiously:
"We shall do everything to make you
feel at home. Would you like a nice
large cake of ice in your bed. sir?"
