A lady writing from Ann ArboF, Mich,
to the Ironton, Ohio, Riur Rlot says:
My next query is, did you ever take
trip on the Andesl | have on several oc-
casions, and hope before long to return to
my friends and family ditto. One can
afford to wait six hours for the purpose Of
enjoying the comfortable quarters, good
fare and polite attention to be had on
that prince OF steamers. Although very
much crowded with passengers, shared
room in the gcntlemen's cabin with a
venerable female Of the celcbistic persua-
sion, who wore COrk-sCrew curls; that did
not detract from my enjoyment, and l
really wished that the "Big Drink"
reached all the way to University Town,
1t would be fine to make the journey with
u gentlemanly captain at tho head OF the
table, attentive waters all about you, and
q string band discourSing the sweetest mu-
sic, ! tell you it's enough to make one
want to "throw physiC to the dogs" and,
| suppose, sas the LOtos caters did, scout
forever more the idea Of bakers bread,
Dutch butter, and potatoes cooked in hy-
drant water with their jackets on,
