Timely Hints for Summer Travellers.

An experienced traveller frequently en-
aures many little Inconvenience which
could he easily avoided if care were ex-
ercised.
If going on long journey in the sum
mer when travel is at its height, secure
your ticket and sleeping car reservation
well in advance. DO not postpone this
duty until you arrive at the depot.
If you have through ticket to your
destination and you live in large city.
checked from your house to your final
destination.
In travelling in a sleeping car whether
you have an upper or lower berth, you
are entitled to one full seat during the
day. If you want to get the best ventila
ton ut night select an upper berth. If
you have a lower berth, insist upon hay-
ing both windows open and fitted with
double screens.
The usual fee for the porter is -
cents for each day or fraction thereof of
your journey.
If you are of an economical mind,
learn in advance the dining car and lunch
counter facilities of the train On which
you travel Ii the service in the diner is
on the table d,hote plan, 81 meal, you
can carry with you fruit, crackers and
sweet chocolate for your lunch, and eat
only your breakfast and dinner in the
diner. The tip for the dining car waiter
varies from ~ 10 - cents Tor NQnlIH.
Men are by far the most extravagant
tippers.
Do not allow your pretty light travel
ing hat to be exposed to the dust. Give
it TO the porter when you pay him his
first tip on entering the train, and he will
put it away in a locker or tie it up i'll Il
pillow case for you.
Garry your own toilet equipment in
your handbag, particularly your soap
and sponge, which may be kept in an
oil silk bag. Do not use the soap sup
piled on the train if you value your com
plexion. Many women do not use water
while travelling, but simply cold cream
or a cleansing lotion.
You will find your hands in better con-
dition at the end of the journey if you
wear an old pair of soft. supple gloves
all the time YOU are on the train.
If friends fail to meet You at your
designations do not be alarmed because
you find yourself in a strange city. In

Then communicate with your friend by

If they live in the city and fail to
meet you. after waiting a reasonable
time. hire cab, making a distinct bar
gain with the driver. and you will reach
their home in safety.

Girls Making a Social Mistake.

Col y. was one of the most popular
army officers of his day, loved by his
fellow officers and much sought after in
social life. Al the age of 50 he is still
a fascinating man with hosts of friends
among young and old. He looks out
upon life with Il kindly tolerance. giving
way to none of the usual prejudices of
age. Recently. in speaking of the girls
of today. he said; Il am not one of
those who think that there are no beau
ties now to compare with those Of the
past, nor do | think that the manners of
the young people have undergone as
much deterioration as is usually ascribed
to them. There were rude and Inbred
girls fifty years ago, and young people
were as needless then as now. What
am struck with is the change in attitude
between the sexes. In these days the
young men | know are SO run after. so
coTrted, so feted, that they have no
opportunity to do anything of their own
initiative. They are no longer even ex-
pected to call after social occasion
The natural consequence is that they
are spoiled darlings Girls. on the coa-
trary, receive much less attention than
they did. How can young nen find
time to entertain their young women

ing all their time in arranging for the
amusement of their masculine friends :!

young men feel that they must exert
themselves to win their smiles, il would
be much better for both sides. Man is
naturally 81 selfish creature. and as long
as he has nothing to do but to accept
he will do nothing else. This is not
coed for him, and to an old-fashioned
observer there is something painful IN
