A BIT TOO HARD.
”1 haven’t slept a wink all night.” Thus spoke the weary-looking man to the hotel-clerk as he paid his bill. “The bed was like iron,” he continued. “Next time you must give me another room.” “All the beds are alike,” said the clerk. “Nonsense. Some are better than the one I had.” “No, sir. They’re, all the same.” “They are not. And I’ll prove it. The man in the room next to me snored all night. He slept well; how do you account for that?” “There is no difference in the beds, sir ” said the clerk decidedly. “That man has been here before; he always sleeps on the floor.”
