As the highlands are often cool during the evening hours, you should take a heavy overcoat and at least one suit of flannels. * * * * * SUGGESTION III—Our third suggestion would be to make up a jolly little party and spend your July vacation in touring Switzerland and the Petroleum Alps. Excellent motor-cars may be obtained in Paris (No. 19 Arc de Triomphe) and the roads from the gay capital to the Swiss uplands will be found most excellent. Luncheon may be secured at convenient cabarets along the way, and by speaking to the chauffeur stops may be made from time to time to allow you to make photographs of choice bits in the landscape. Arriving in Switzerland, you should retire early in order to be up for the sunrise, which, in those latitudes is much earlier than in America on account of the difference in time. While in Switzerland you should not fail to visit the tomb of William Tell, who is dead at present. Here a short stop may be made for luncheon, photographs, etc. In this little side trip you will have delightful weather, according to recent unconfirmed rumors from Chefoo. Having toured Switzerland, it would be pleasant to have a yacht meet you some place nearby and make the homeward journey in this way rather than by the Atlantic liners. There are so many vulgar tourists on the regular steamships during the summer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SOME HAPPY LITTLE VACATION SUGGESTIONS FOR OUR READERS TO THOSE WHO ARE IN DOUBT AS TO WHERE THEY SHALL GO FOR THEIR HOLIDAY, WE RESPECTFULLY SUBMIT THESE HAPPY HINTS [Illustration] [Illustration] [Illustration] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ THE PACE THAT KILLS [Illustration] ------------------------------------------------------------------------ SEEING EUROPE FROM TWO POINTS OF VIEW [Illustration: UNCLE GID—“_Well, by Jiminy, I reckon the Judge and the Missus are having a fine time out there in Europe.
