The traveler who is prone to com- plain s1eeP1 ea8 nights spent' in u n Comfortable hotels in this "country may'find dorne solace in this account of the Roman hotels in the days of the late republic and the empire: Most of the' hostelries and taverns of Rome, says Humbert de Gainer In "Usages et Moeurs d'Autrefois," were situated along the Appian way. Some of them were passable. It`was.at one of the better ones that Cicero used frequently to stop and write. his let. lets.. , The most interesting hostelries, however, were near the circuses and amphitheatres. The shrewdand gen- erally dishonest ownershad a double purpose in selecting that situation. It was well chosen for the patron- age of the huge crowds that went to the circuses on holidays to see the fights between wildanimals and tha gladiatorial combats, and the land- lords could buy conveniently and rea- sonably those animals that 'had been slaughtered during the day, to -be ..served tables. eve outhsir t bl s a battle betm ecu a lion and a tiger In the amphitheatre in the afternoon, and if he went to anearby hotel night find parts or the same lion or tiger In his stew for dinner. A bear's steak was considered a great delicacy in Rome., The furnishings of the commit room, which in these hotels.served as dining room, parlor and, taproom were severely simple. A few wooden tables, a few wooden benches and a sort of elevated throne were the only pieces of furnittrre. On the raised chair or throne sat the owner of the tan and watched over his guests aed probably his. belongings; .• A large number of the hostelries displayed upon the ceilings 'of thee• uommon rooms a painting ;represeut- ing a rooster. The patnting,bore p inscription, the spirit of which will never grow old: ."When -`this cock crows, then we will give credit." That is the one link that binds the crude, uncomfortable taverri of -an- dent. Ro a to the elaborate hotel or ,,the present .day.
