It is built and furnished exactly like a first-class mod- ern hotel, with furniture of different | design and period in each of the 175 | private rooms.

Care has been taken to provide only a la carte menus for pa- tients—the ego is always bolstered up by the exercise of any choice, say the psychologists--and to furnish indi- bureau drawers, closets and chiffoniers.
