Presents No Bills

PALMA, Majorca, Dec 6.-In this,
one of the loveliest of the Balearic
isles, is the most attractive hotel known
to travellers. Not that it is ornate rn
its equipment, or highly giIded in its
decoration; on the contrary, it is very
plain and clean and simple. But its
surroundings are. beautiful its view
superb, the sea it looks upon is Of a
ravishing shade Of violet-and no
charge is made for stopping as a guest
under its roof.
IL is, in fact, a guest house--0r, as
The Spanards call it, a ''hospederia"-
for travellers, established on the beauty
spot of Miramar, which was the Med
iterranean retreat OF the late Empress
Elizabeth OF Austria before her assas-
sination, and is now in. The possession
OF the Archduke Luis Saivator Of Aus
tria.
Miramar is magnidcently situated,
but quiet simple in design and equip
ment-a corner Of earth's paradise
where Austrian royalties can go for
the simple life and forgetfulness Of
pomp.
Fronting the castle is deep gorge.
and on the further wooded side is this
guest house. Palma. the principal Ma
jorca town, is Is miles away, on the
side of the island, and the entire neigh
bOrhOod is full Of attraction to the
traveller. SO by making early appli-
cation to the archduke'S agents accom-
modations. may be had at this rest
house for three days, free Of cost.
Courteous Spaniards are in charge.
who will see after the welfare of the
guests, who must, however, provide
for their own food. Beds, linen and
table appointments they receive gratis,
and bread and wine can be obtained
very reasonably
1t is said that This provision is due
to the qualification the Austrian own
ers felt, years ago. when they first
came to live at Miramar. Such peace
and such ioveliness, they felt, should
be shared by all lovers Of nature who
passed that way

not fitted for. (3) "Ye shall not en-

not only not enter it, but not catch

Portable, experimental and slightly he

cheerful gathering crowd upon the

Getting there was little difficult, t

THE Development of these water

huge and swarming popularizatiOn of
flying which is now certainly imminent.
We ancient SURVIVORS of those who be

there was any flying, used to make a
great fuss about the dangers and diff
cultieS of landing and getting up. We
wrote with vast gravity about starting
rails and landing stages and it is
still true that landing an aeroplane, eX-
cept upon a well known and quite
level expanse, is a risky and uncom-
Portable business. But getting up and
landing upon fairly smooth water is
easier than getting into bed This
alone is likely to determine the aero
plane routes along the line of the
worlds coast lines and lake groups
and waterways.
'The airmen will go to and fro over
water as the midges do. Wherever
there is a square mile Of water the wa

are much stronger reasons than this
convenience for keeping over water
Over water the air, it seems, lies in
great level eXpanses; even When there
are gales it moves in great uniform
masses, like the swift rush Of deep
river. The airman, in Grahame Whites
