HE First Class Staterooms on the Empress of Japan are, designed and finished with the same art and luxury as the public rooms. Generally speaking, they are all outside rooms, with ship's alde lights, and are provided with bedsteads in lieu of berths. Intercommunicating ahors are atted between practically all the First Class Staterooms, thus enabling them to be let in groups of two or more, as required. Electric lighting is on a lavish scale, and the usual steam heating and ball louvre ventilation of the most perfected type are supplemented by electric fans and plugs for electric heating. Wardrobes with plerglass mirrors, dressing-tables with triple folding mirrors, and pedestal washbasins with running hot and cold fresh water are some of the many modern improvements introduced thoughout.
