SUFFER WHILE ON SHlPB0ARD
Many People Really In Agony During
Trip Made on Comparatively
Calm Waters.

Sir George Trevelyan tells Of cross
Ing the English channel once In bad
weather and that during the whole
passage his companion stood on deck
slowly reciting poetry with emphasis
and gestlculation. His companion
had explained that this singular prac-
tice had been recommended to him as
preventive against seaslckness.
When they reached France he told
Trevelyan that he had nearly got to
the end Of his English poetry, and II
the crossing had been longer he would
have had to begin on other languages.
Darwin suffered terribly from seaslck-
ness during the whole Of his early
voyage on the Beagle, and never quite
recovered from the evil effects Of this
experience. His bad health during
the rest Of his life has been attributed
to the shocks thus caused to his con.
stitution.
Another distinguished victim OF sea.

ing a voyage to Capetown from Mau-
