New Hotel Rules.
A GEORGIA LANDMHiD ADOPTED THEM — IT IS NOT STATED WHAT THE GUESTS THOUGHT ABOUT THEM. A hotel in Georgia has adopted the following rules for the guidance of its guests : — The motbo of the hotel is : "Do uato others as they will do you." There are three departments — upstairs, downstairs, and out doors. Out doors is the cbeapest. If the bell in your rcom is broken, wring the towel. . No alarm clockfurnished by the management. Before retiring wind up your bed and hear the ticks. , To prevent guests from carrying fruit from the table, we will have no fruit. An j one wishing to take a drive after lunch can repair to the woodshed and drive nails. Guests having nightmare will find the harness in th« closed.
Thirteen at the diDner table is a bad ?ign. It is a sign that we will have no supper. Each room supplied with a handsome chromo card with the following inscription : "Honesty is tb.e best policeman." iff tbe hotel ia not en the right side of the street, let it be known at the office and it will promptly bo removed to the other side. No spooaa allowed on the table occupied by newly-married couples. This is to prevent spooning in public. Guests are not exp- e'ed to pay their bills units? they prefer to do fo. We have feen a tree •'leave its trunk for boird." — Homton Posb.
