The journey across the Channel and to
the capital of fair France is now twice
told-nay, -told-tale, familiar TO
every larry and his 'Arriet." Neverthe-
less, it was fraught with excitement and
delight to Uncle Sandy's inexperience.
The fair hop fields of Kent, the white cliffs
and blue glittering waters of the Channel
at Dover, the Admiralty Pier, the castle

body's carriage on to the deck, all afforded
him matter for wonder and admiration.
But the marvel of marvels was to land at
Calais, and not understand a word spoken
by the chattering crowd around him.

They obtained an early start next morn
ing, and the journey was tedious. Uncle
Sandy bemOaned the heat, the cost, the
WEAKNESS of travel; and his niece was truly

ton in a rather fiat but prettily wooded
country, and everyone got out.
