Trips Short and Long for Vacation Where to Get
There and Where to Stay

The way through the customs houses of Europe
and across the frontiers is not hard il one keeps
ones head and does is told. The few rnixups
that occasionally come to the American consulates

misunderstanding.
RAILROAD TRAVEL ABROAD.
Everywhere in Europe the traveller win find rail-
way travel divided into first second and third
class. the English Midland Railway and a
section Of the Great Northern. which have no Sec
ond class. Express trains the Continent have
third class. First class is best for long jour
neys; second good enough for short runs II one
wants to study the European masses he will find
all the opportunity he desires by journeyng in third
class carriages. Second class in Germany and
Austria Is almost as comfortable first class in
England and France. All the railway and station
employees expect tips. but these need not be large.
Many difficulties that beset travellers will be over
baggage. The American system of checking bag
gage Is practically unknown on the Continent. The
railroad puts baggage vans the train and throws
up its hands to further responsibility. You look
after your own baggage pay porter TO do
IL for you. On crossing a frontier il is necessary
for the passenger to go to the baggage van get out
his trunk watch 1t through the examination and
then that it goes on board again. At the terml-
nal the baggage is dumped in a heap and each pas
senger picks out his own.
The amount Of baggage carried free varies with
the countries. Let those who have Rrunblea AZ a
15O-pound allowance American rules with Tia
bility limited TO 800 for wearing apparel" prepare
for the worst. In England where one finds rail-
roads most generous. the allowance is only 1l2
pounds In most Continental countries it averages
sixty pounds. In Belgium, Bavaria, Italy and
Switzerland not a pound is carried free
Smokers will have TO be careful on foreign trains
or they will find themselves in carriages where
smoking is prohibited. In Germany smoking is al
lowed in all carriages save those marked Fur
Nichtraucher." In England. France and Italy it is
prohibited In all save or two on each train
which the guards will designate application.
