Cost of a Trip around the World.

The expense OF trip around the world Is
calculated by the Rdihcay Age on the basis of
1870 days, as S84e for first class and S608 for
second class accom- modations. Under the
first head are included these entries: New
York to San Francisco, s129; sleeping car, S25 !;
meals on the road SIS; San Francisco to sgd
melbourne S25; expenses in Melbourne, $40
Melbourne TO Adelaide, S25, expenses In
Adelaide, $40; Adelaide to London IN sailing
ship, S255; England to New York SIS. 1t Is
admitted, however that little extra money
will not come amiss. No allowance is made
for expenses In England.
