TO THE HOLY LAND. The Rush of Tourut* Is Now Uo usually Great Vaellltle» for Travelia« ira Not I'» tu the KrqulreMi u Is — Amer- ieaas Vlaltla« Mlbla 4 vwMtries. People who have deeidtd on taking a tour through Egy p’ ai d ihe Holy Luml this yeur comp •«.. of umisua difficulty iu getting bertha in trans Atlantic liners and agent» in charge of trips to these countries say that it is almost imptMuibie to get them started on schedule time. 'Phis, says the New York bun, is a»crii*ed to two eamn-s. Ont is that the number of in tending tourists iu the lamia of Bible story baa Increased beyond all ex pectations ar.d the aecutrl is tbv British government has taken no less than 15 lurge stramslnpa off the hands of the different steamship com panies, and the ber and curding hot desert winds begin to blow Egypt and by the end of April it cornea too warm fur comfort even in Palestine, although the nights arc cool. A man who has personally conduct ed a great number of tours through the Bible lands said lately in talking of the pre-lent status of travel in these countries: “I do not suppoNe there ever was a time when it was so hard to make dates for tourist*. The number of people who want to go to the Holy Land is far in < \c< - « of the accommodations. The taking of so many sliijis by the British govern ment for war purposes makes it tiilli- eult to arrange tours, especially as the season last» only a few months. How do J account for th« large num ber of people who are going thi* year? Well, there are a number of contributing causes. During and for some time In-fore the war witii Spain, the tourist business dropped lower than It had I wen for several year», ami tourists arc now making up for lust time. Then again times have bri'ti good since the war And people are spending mole money. The chief reason I believe is flint a trip through these countries is not considered so formidwble an undertaking ns it used to lw. Modern inventions have worked wonders, aud even the road from ('aim to the Pyranuds, which used to I m » /raversed on mules has a trolley line, with aii Arab conductor, clad in a garment that to an American looks like a nightshirt, Jumping on and off flir rars, roihi ling far.« an«l pulling th»- I m -II strap Just like/an American •onductor. “It may be too that the prominence given by newspapers to questions of religion and dUcussions on the Bible ha« inspired a number of Americans with trie*, there many countric* ns nt present, the year is the popular one for tak ing the trip. The later rains are over nml Hie nir is pure and balmy there Just like ideal June weather in this country, with aii average temperature of MS degrees in the dnytime. Ihe niglils are cool. Most tourists leave for home in March, but a few take chances of the desert winds ami re main longer No one who has not en countered them ran realize what these winds are like. The particles of sand find their way through closed dour* and get into the food. They even find their way into your watch amt stop It aud the sand, being sharp and gritty, cuts the mucous mein- braife and causes nose bleed. Il acts the same wav on the langs with some people anti priMlucss hemorrhages. But that is nothing to the sand storms. I once was ci^ight in a small Olie with a friend. Our Arab guides covered their fac«s but we were not p<»strd and the sand acted exactly like a sand blast and took all the skin off our noses anti lifts. 1 would know bet ter now how to act if I was unfor tunate enough to be caught again. The hot winds wlUch bring the In- visible pfirtirle* of sand however nr« hard«r to deal with than the sand storms, which can an I l»e mj seen. I believe they gave rise to She custom of Moslem women never ap|»euring in public unveiled. “Of hit« years most tourists want to visit the Dead sea, but the season for that ends early. It is situated In a great depression and the atmos phere alxvut It becomes unbearably hot by March. Most tourists too want to sec brickmaking as it was done when the children of Israel were In Egypt. The so-called bricks are real ly cakes of clay or mud. dried or baked in the sun and would not hold together without straw.’* SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY.
