that several comparatively new ideas

Instead Of the hard rice pellets,
which occasionally are thrown with

some brides go in for substituting the
tiniest ladies slippers as well as

When purchasing steamship tickets,

In England it is correct to travel In
second or third-class railway carriages
in preference to the more expensive
first-class. On the continent it is nee
essary to travel either first or second
class.
It Is convenience to purchase rail-
way tickets at one of the agencies or
companies, where explicit information
can be had about trains, routes, etc.
No extra charge is made. Tickets so

and they are quick and obliging, and
expect only small fee.
Trunks are troublesome things for
constant use in Europe. They are
weighed and extra charges are made
for them. Checks such as are known
in America, are not obtainable, al
though certain methods prevail OF

making trips, therefore, it is best to
have ones trunks stored at one of the
