STILL NEW TO MANY LANDS National Geographic Society Says There Are Many Places Where Airplane, Automobile and Even Horse Would Be Curiosity. Washington.—"Now that the At- . /antic has been crossed and there are , plans afoot to fly over the Pacific, the 1 day may not be far distant when some aerial Magellan will make an air plane tour around tbe world," says a bulletin of the National Geographic society, "There are still many corners of the world where airplane, automobile and even the horse would be curiosities. And If a man set out to tour the globe and 'do as the Romans do' in re spect to adopting native conveyances he would have to : "Resort to « donkey in Spanish America and In the Holy Land. "Climb aboard a camel to traverse African deserts. "Cross some rivers of India on the inflated skins of bullocks, and others by a bridge of one rawhide rope. Using Elephant as Taxi. "Submit to the sea-going motion of an elephant when he continued his Journey on land. "Get into a man-borne palanquin at Calcutta. "Jolt over far Eastern roads in a non-shock absorbing cart drawn by I oxen. "And In China he prepared to climb Into n Jinrikisha, a sedan chair or a i wheelbarrow." A few of these curious means of j travel are described In a tommunlca- ; tlon to the society by O. P. Austin, ns follows : "In all parts of that great line of deserts, stretching from North Africa j across Central Asia to Northwest China, the camel is everywhere in j evidence; the total number in the i world being estimated at about three millions. "Not only is the camel a valuable j freight carrier, but he serves ns the | traveling car of the Rockefellers, the I Carnegies, the Morgans and the Har rlmnns of the desert. When he is chosen for this more pretentious serv ice a light framework is placed upon his back, and covered with cloths to j screen the occupants from the sun and the observation of the passers, and decorated with pompons of vari- i ous colors. In this gorgeous com n,.rtment which mnv he not inantlv 1 f , J , , f ,, , ' termed the palace car of the desert, c the master of the camel train places his wife and children, his choicest a merchandise, his cooking utensils and dully requirements, and travels in ; state, the observed of all observers, the envy of the wandering native of ; j I the desert. Craft on the Euphrates. "On the Euphrates and the Tigris ! : are still retained the curious water transports of centuries ago—the raft | of skins and the circular boats. These rafts are sustained by inflated skins, prepared for this especial pur- j pose, and after the raft floats down ! the river to its destination the inflated skins are removed, the air permitted to escape, and the skins carefully } folded and carried back to the upper ! waters, where they are again inflated and used as the support of another and still another raft. "Even more curious to the eyes of j the traveler from other parts of the I world are the circular boats, made of | wickerwork and covered with skins, | j or made watertight with pitch, which ! are still in daily use on the Tigris 1 and Euphrates rivers. "The three principal methods of j ; transportation of people In central j and southern China are the sedan chair, the jinrikisha and the wheel- I barrow. "Probably more freight and more passengers are transported in China ; by the wheelbarrow than by any other j land method. The wheelbarrow there 1 used differs from that used by us in j the fact that the wheel Is set in the j center and thus supports practically the entire load, while the handles are 1 supported in part by a strap or rope : over the shoulders of the man who ' operates it. As a result, the wheel barrow coolie in China will transport nearly a half ton on his vehicle." HERE'S NEW FINANCIAL "WIZ John Fixes the Pump So That HI* Wife Can Take in Washing; Charges Her $1.
