las lie Ua4a3d home from three
months ttip\, abroad, where he says
b fau1d that @uring the summer sea
son the ruInbelA> OF American tourists
is largely increased, there being Yam
l1ea traEe!eIs in evan the most unim-
poltact cities on the continent. The
GcardinaVian countri&s are, he says,
more than oTdinaTilS popular with
Amerioars, having, 10 q great extent,
sUppiaTted Germany aGd France as
the scene Of travel. Marry Of the class

this summer in Norway. Nj Benson
declares that the biggest Celebration III
all Europe after the que&n's jubilee
was the exposition in Stockholm, Swe-
den. which had much to DE-, with at
tracing the crowds to the fer north.
The y6ar past has convinced those
tourists " ho We're not aware Of the
fact, that the accommodations IN the
Scandinavian countries are in no wise
inferior to those Of Central Europe;
and that the railroad, steamboat and
hotel facilities are as good, and in
many. cases better, than in sections
which have for some years been pop
ular with experienced travellers. Even
With this true, many improvements
are being made to keep no with the
constantly increasing number of for
eigneIs who each year visit the coun-
try. MI Benson visited the Victoria
exhibition in London, the Exposition
UNIVERSAL in Brussels. and the big
horticultural exhibition at Hamburg.
According to the statistics the most
successful financially was the monster
celebration at Stockholm.
