On the Mississippi river In olden days the passenger steamboats were very ornate affairs, vying with each other in garish glory. One owner hit on the Idea If naming his steam boat's cabinets instead of numbering them. So ho named them in honor of the states of the Union, each having above tho door tho gilt title of somo state, the big central cabin being called tho "Texas," after the largest state. Other boat ownera took up tho idea, and thus the word cabin wa& gradually alternated by "state" room. For years the best cabin was still known bb the Texas. Then that sobriquet died with the ebbing glory of tho old river steamers. But the word "stateroom" became Incorporat ed into our language, nnd In time even broke into the dictionary, as does many another catch phrase. Not one person in a thousand who occupies a stateroom know-B the term onco meant "a room named for a state." Acid Kills Waterfowl.
