Cheap Traveling.
It costs an Englishman more in the matter of fares when taking a Journey in England than anywhere on the continent. For instance, the railway fares in England are nearly twice as much as those obtaining in Belgium, Mr the latter is accounted the cheapest country in Europe in which to travel, both speed and accommodation considered. The charges in Russia are a trifle lower than those in Belgium. But because the trains there go at such a slow rate, and the third-clasß carriages are scarcely habitable, the fareß in the czar’s domain may be said to be more expensive. Cheaper again than England is* Germany, where luxurious accommodation can be obtained at low rates. But even less expensive is traveling in France, after which comes Italy.
