ON TAKING LIFE EASY Assisted by a “Romelink” Couch Hammock W'xth most of us life is a beastly rush, from rising in the morning till bedtime. Ina direct, or in an aimless way, according to our habit, we scramble from one task to another, and the hours of ease are few and far between. But when a rest time does come—oh boy ! T_o ct'retdl out in a good Couch Hammock, on a breeze-swept varandah, with a cigar or pipe if you be of the masculine persuasion, or with some sweets to nibble at if you are of the more deadly sex—that is the life. If Omar Khayyam had only owned a good Couch Hammock he would have added one more delight to his wilderness repertoire. His book of verse, his jug of wine, the object of his rhapsody, the list would have been added a noble Couch could have shing beneath the bough— and perfect contentment.
