EUROPEAN TRIPS.
Some Points For the Traveller who
Would Be Economical.

The apparent cheapness of cab fareA
in Europe will at first lead one into I'M
necessary extravaganza, which can
easily be avoided. In every large city
and many smaller ones little hand
books Of the tramway lines can be had.
and the cars are SO plainly marked that
the intelligent traveller soon learns to
use them. You do not really know a
city or it's people until you have studied
both at close range in the street cars;
you are too far away from them In a
cab
Museums, galleries and palaces are
always open one day at least in each
week free of charge. To arrange for
visit on this day will save quite
tidy little sum in entrance fees when
the expenses are counted up at last.
To sum up, So day is a liberal al
lowance for living expenses, for they
will not rise to this sum in cities where
a long sojourn is made, and so the
greater cost Of short stands will be
equalized to this one average. Almost
all European countries offer special cut
railroad rates for number of tours
during the summer months. Informal
ton as to this is obtainable in the bu-
reau of information in every city rail
way station, where officials speaking
English can always be found. These
round trip tickets cover about every
thing to be seen in the country in ques-
ton, and international routes can also
be covered by their help at 4 cost less
than that offered by the tourist agen-
cies. Steamer travel is cheaper than
rail, but the great time demanded
makes the question of meals a serious
one, as there is no helping yourself out
with a sandwich bought at station.
To be able to avail oneself Of all
these possibilities for saving money
and really getting the most out of ones
trip a good guidebook is absolutely
necessary
