Hither come the multimillionaires, theambassadors from foreign countries with their suites, the liter-ary lions of America, the big Wall Street kings of finance, thecaptains of industry from Pittsburg, the beef barons from Chi-cago, and the most beautifully gowned women from all sec-tions of America and Europe. When the great million-and-a-half-dollar palace hotel atBretton Woods, the Mount Washington, is aglow at nightwith its 5,000 incandescent lamps, there is an indoor scene com-parable in brilliancy with a reception to the diplomatic corps atthe White House or a levee at the Court of St. James. TheMount Washington is pioneer of a succession of other vaca-tion-season palaces whose walls are by and by to uprear them-selves in the Mountains, for the White Mountain fever thathas possessed our middle classes for a generation or more hasseized upon the plutocrats and the word has gone forth that.
