He travels equipped with sufficient luggage tor a family of five, a latent conviction that western America is still In a state of savagery, and an awful grief at having forgotten to bring his rubber bath tub. Throughout the three aots. the Hon.

Wedgewood is. according to his own notion, being continually "put The porter of the Pullman car does not show the foreigner anything like the amount of. respect that he believes to be his due. and the enraged Briton is finally driven to threaten that unobliging attache with the results that will follow the publication of the letter he purposes to write to the London Times.
