SOME GUESTS TO BE BARRED

Their Families to Find No

Th concrete floors of the Castle are

There are certain residents of old-time
hotels for whom m quarters have been
provided In tho Castle.
Nor will any quarters he provided for
them. In fact, special pains were taken
to see that there should be no place for
these cUBtomory residents to live In tho
Caatle, because It waa well known that
they would not have to be invfted. They
are "buttlnfklg" and they need no Invi
tation. They pay neither board nor lodg
ing, and yet they take both. And besides
they are not popular with the other
guests the paying guests.
And so special care was exercised to
see that there should be no place for
these customary residents to live.
Who are they, these unwelcome guests,
who will find no place for them In the
Castle hotel?
All Are Barred.
They are Sir. and Mrs. Rat, and the
little rats, Mr. and Mrs. Mouse and the
little mice, and Mr. and Mrs. Bug and
the little bi:?3.
It is rumored that they have been
watching the erection of the new hotel
from neighboring buildings and planning
to move Into it.
"Just wait, my dear," said Mr. Rat to
his spouse. "Walt till the new building
la done and we will move into it and live
In luxury, with plenty to eat."
"Mebby It's a church," said little Os
wald Ruffon:Rat.
"Ah, no, It Isn't." said Papa Rat "Quite
the oppoalte of that, my son "
""What Is the new building, Edgerton?"
Inquired Mamma Rat, with an admiring
look at her lord and master.
"IJsten, my dears," said Papa Rat,
with shining eyes and twitching whiskers.
In anticipation of delicious meats and
cheeses that he saw In the future,
"listen: It Is going to be a hotel."
All the little Rats danced for Joy, and
some of them ran off to tell the good
news to their neighbors, the Mouse fam
ily. Papa Rat spent all the time he could
out at the door of their home watching
operations on the new Castle and figur
ing out Just what part of the kitchen he
would move his family Into.
But as time passed a look of disappoint
ment pased over his little brown face.
Mamma Rat noticed It and asked him
what was worrying him.
rnP fnr Worry.
"Oh, nothing." aaid Papa Rat, "nothing
at all. What a silly idea! What would
I havo to worry me?"
"There is something worrying you Just
the same," said Mamma Rat with a
searching look. "lias that big maltose cat
been around again?"
"No, no, I haven't seen any cat," said
rapa Rat looking uncomfortable.
"Well, then, what is it?" Insisted Mrs.
Rat.
"Well, my dear," confessed Mr. Rat, '
"I see they are putting concrete floors j
and walls In the new Castle hotel." I
Mrs. Rat said nothing and all the little
Rats were silent and stopped eating.
Finally little Aw Rat's shrill voice rose
tn a wall.
"Now we can't go an' live In the new
hotel," he cried.
Mrs. Rat wiped her eyes on a corner of
her apron.
"Isn't there any hope?" she asked.
"There's Just one chance," said Mr.
Rat "They may put some fixtures In
the kitchen that will give me a chance
to establish a home under them or be
tween them and the wall. We'll see."
But a few days later even this hope had
vanished. Mr. Rat came home and re
ported that they would not be able to
move into the big hotel where they had
counted on living.
Kitchen New Fanifled.
"The kitchen Is one of these new-fan
gled sanitary' ones." he said. "Kven the j
plate warming arrangements and the
steam tables are set up from the floor on
iron lets. Ah, things wtre different when
I was a little rat. I remember well the
place my father had in a hotel. And we
were a big family, too. Hut we lived on
the cream of the land, bad the finest of
everything to eat. I'm very sorry, dear
wife and children, but we must do the
best we can."
"Can't we go an' live In the new Castle
hotel?" wailed little Ruffon Rat
"No, that la Impossible," said his
father.
And the sad news was aoon communi
cated to the Mouse family and the bug I
family. They can never live In the Castle.
The kit' hen has four big rankles and :
all the most modern machinery for doing :
the work of the kitchen. It is located j
behind the cafe dining room in the most '
convenient place.
Just down the stairs from the kitchen
is a large room with shower and bath.
This Is for the exclusive use of the chef,
so that he can quickly take a bath and
rub either before or after his work.
Near this are two rooms, one of which
la the dining room for the kitchen "help"
snd the other is the service bar, a room
from which liquors will be dispensed di
rect to large gatherings without goinr
IhiuuKh the bar room.
