METHODS IN GERMANY . „ j. ■ In one of the most famous and most comfortable hotels in Germany guests are consulted about their beds before the beds are made. up. _ A» list of questions is provided, and if after answering these the guest does not: sleep well, it is not the fault of.“mine host.” If one Ijkes a feather bed, ho may have it; if he prefers the healthier hair mattress, it is at hand. If he likes a bolster and a dozen pillows, he will not be given one pillow less. If he abhors bolsters, they will be spirited away. If he wishes to sleep in blankets he will not be given sheets. Excluding Germans, the Swiss are probably the most thorough bedmakers in the. world.
