Mark Twain's Hotel
Having lately opened a hashery, I send you these my rules and regulations — This house shall be considered strictly inn-temperate. None but the brave deserve the fare. i Porsons owing bills for board will be bored for bills. Boarders who do not wish to pay in advance are requested to advance and pay. Boarders are expected to wait on the colored cooks for meals. Boarders are requested to pull off their boots before retiring, if they can conveniently do so. Sheets will be rigidly changed once in six months, or more if necessary. j Double boarders can have two beds ,' with a room in it, or two rooms with : a bed in it, just as they choose. Bed with or without bugs. All money and valuables to be left in the care of tLe proprietor ; this is insisted on, as he will be responisble for no other losses. Inside matter will not be furnished for editors under any consideration. Relatives coming to make a six months' visit will be welcomed, but when they bring their household furniture, virtue will cease to be a forbearance. Beds with or without boards. Dreams will be charged for by the dozen. Nightmares hired out at reasonable rates. Stone vaults will be furnished to snoring boarders, as the proprietor will in no wise be responsible for the broken tinpanums of other ears.
