One thing which has con-tributed to this desirable end is the elimination of the conventional and universally prevalent grand staircaseleading from the dining-saloon to the upper deck. All of this space has been utilized in adding to the size of thedining-saloon on the main deck and to the social hall on the spar deck. Mrs. Goulds suite, located on the port side of the main deck, consists of boudoir, bedroom, dressing-room,and bath, in ivory and rose of the Louis XVI. period. The draperies about the portholes, the royal canopy of rich silk above the couch of spotless white, and thevelvet carpet upon the floor, are of a delicate shade of rose, in which garlands and bows of ribbon are worked ingraceful design. The dressing-room is brilliantly illuminated from the ceiling by glow-lamps set in tulip-shaped opalescentglass shades. A large, full-length, three-leaved folding mirror is one of the features of this room.
