ming the horizon for passing vessels,
and playing cards and "shufae-board'
for two or three days. 1t seems almost
a day between breakfast and luncheon
and another day until dinner. The last
two days pass slowly, with everybody in
good humor. On the morning of the
last day every passenger comes on deck
carefully dressed and smiling, each one
eager to catch the first glimpse of land.
And how dear that first bit of land
seems, whether it's your native land or
notl Then comes the hustle of getting
the mail bags and luggage in place for
unloading, and the anxiety to get
ashore.
~@~
Before an ocean liner can land in
New York she must report at quaran-
time in the lower hay, and must also
transferimportantmail to a government
boat. Then the custom house officers
board the vessel in the lower harbor,
and every passenger must declare his or
her nationality to an official. Then pas
sengers are required to form lines and
pass before custom officials and declare
if they have anything dutiable in their
baggage-if they have any clothing,
diamonds, or presents. If one declares
that he has thirty dollars worth of
presents or souvenirs he must pay duty
ON that amount. These statements are
made under oath, which the passenger
signs. The officer retains your declara-
ton and gives you check to correspond
with the number of it. When the boat
finally makes fast to the pier the pas
sengers are landed in the second story
of the custom house and no person can
leave until his baggage has been in
spected. Passengers form in line and
advance to the leading official who de-
tails an inspector to look through yonr
baggage. Some times they turn things
topsy turvy in your baggage, and again
they will only ask what you have.
My inspector, with my declaration in
his hand, checked up my souvenirs I'm
til he had the amount declared and then
invited me to walk up and pay my duty.
The duty was half the cost of the trifes,
and it was a beautiful illustration of the
tariff: This experience consumes from
one to two hours before you are free to
leave the house. Four custom houses
in England and France charged me not a
cent duty and the loss of time was trifiing.
Many passengers make no declar-
alton in New York and get through free
but they take dangerous risks. In this
case honesty is the best policy but it is
rather expensive.

A voyage across the Atlantic begins
to grow a trile monotonOus after the

all the way, you know. If the sky is
clear the water will be as blue as indigo
all day, but if clouds obscure the sun
the water looks black or dark green.

The S. S. New York on her Westward
trip had one seasick passenger who was
comical enough to make the angels
laugh. Hewas one of Cooks excursion
lists and hailed from the West. Being
taken sick ON deck he hurried below to
a saloon where he rushed in between a
pOrtly German and another suffering
mortal. All three were sick and were
not keeping it secret The Western
man was tall and lank and lean. Tears
flowed from his eyes and his nose and
mouth were both leaking. Looking a
perfect picture of despair he turned his
head moment to remark "Blankity

for a pleasure trip, and here's what /

Impressions By The Way.

The fortnight which the passenger
spends on an ocean liner in making the
Eastward and Westward trip across the
Atlantic is well worth the time and the
price, when the physical benefit, pleas
ure and seasickness are considered. The
sea breeze is very invigorating and
gives the passenger a wonderful appe-
tite-if he or she doesn't happen to be
seasick. On the Eastward trip Of the
S. S. New York the ocean was so
smooth that scarcely twenty of the
eight hundred passengers were seasick.
The doctors say that little seasick-
ness is good for fellow-or a woman
being kind of an internal Spring clean
ing. A very little of it, however, is
sufficient to satisfy the average person.
On the Westward trip almost half of
the passengers were sick on two differ
ent Edays, half the passengers leaving
the dinner table one evening. When
one promenades while the vessel is roll
ing he appears suddenly to be walking
uphill and Instantly he feels the deck
sink under him. 1t is the upward move
ment which makes one feel like giving
up hope-and supper. Having the good
fortune to escape seasickness in the trips
over the Atlantic and the two trips over
the English Channel, had many oppor-
tunities to study the afflicted passengers
at all stages of the game. Some of the
girls fought bravely against it, one lit
tie woman in gray walking at least ten
miles on deck to stave it off, only to
give up gracefully at last. Seasickness
is no joke, however, though there is
considerable ''gag" about it.

Two concerts were given on the S. S.
New York in way of social diversion on
her Westward trip, both being largely
attended, many of the passengers being
in full evening dress. Another amuse-
ment ON the New York was a tug-of-
war one day between the teams of men
from the first and second cabin passen-
gers. The prize was a handsome cake
and Senator Chauncey Depew was the
referee. The second cabin men won
and in presenting the prize Mr.. Depew
remarked that he observed that the
men with a pull" always "took the
cake" An Englishman who received
the cake for the second cabin team said
that he knew little about the American
''pull," but he did know that they
landed the cake-for he had it in his
hand. He then paid Senator Depew a
compliment, assuring him that no
American name was more honored now
in England that Depew.

One explanation OF the prevalent embasrass-

doubt ed fact that the people reading the news
papers more than before, and the newspapers
are all the time improving the quality OF their
reading matter. No doubt there those who
will maintain that this tendency denotes ,iti-
ated taste but they will have to allow that it. j.
popular nevertheless.
