All Americans who have reason to
travel along the Riviera and from there

with the shortcomings Of foreign rail

and west to Monte Carlo are so crowded

For short journeys the prices are not
unreasonable if the company provided
adequate accommodations but when
long distance is in question then the
charges would appall Croesus
Two women with their maids decided
to go from Mentone TO Paris last spring
by the train de luxe. but found they
could secure only one small cOmpart-
ment for two persons and for this had
to wait week The price Of each first
class ticket was $25, and for each berth
a supplementary charge was made OF

the next morning costing for each per-
son $42. 40 The maids, with eight
trunks, four of which were small ones
went by an earlier train. and the charge
for the extra baggage was $500. The
guard on the train de luxe after it had
left Mentone informed the women that

The women got the room for two and
the guard the extra tip The entire cost
of the journey. therefore amounted to
about $40. A II hours journey in the

When a crowd of citizens Of Beech
