(By a Hesitating Trippist.)
Antwerp.—Lots of Rubens, but the Harwich route is objectionable in "dusty" weather.
Boulogne.—Great attraction this year—Ex-Queen of NAPLES installed—but the port, at low tide, requires all the perfumes of Araby, and more.
Cologne.—Cathedral finished, but local scent is accurately expressed by "Oh!"
Dieppe.—Casino cheery, but the passage from Newhaven to French coast at times too terrible for words.
Etretat.—Amusing society, but the sanitary arrangements are rather shady.
Florence.—The Capital of Art, but at its worst in the dog days.
Geneva.—Within reach of Mont Blanc, but hotels indifferent, even when under "Royal Patronage."
Heidelberg.—Magnificent view from the Castle, but too many Cooks spoil the prospect.
