One
rule
to
be
always
observed
in
traveling
is
punctuality.
Rise
early
enough
to
have
ample
time
for
arranging
everything
needful
for
the
day's
journey.
If
you
sleep
upon
the
boat,
or
at
a
hotel,
always
give
directions
to
the
servant
to
waken
you
at
an
hour
sufficiently
early
to
allow
ample
time
for
preparation.
It
is
better
to
be
all
ready
twenty
minutes
too
soon,
than
five
minutes
late,
or
even
late
enough
to
be
annoyed
and
heated
by
hurrying
at
the
last
moment.
A
lady
will
always
dress
plainly
when
traveling.
A
gay
dress,
or
finery
of
any
sort,
when
in
a
boat,
stage,
or
car,
lays
a
woman
open
to
the
most
severe
misconstruction.
Wear
always
neutral
tints,
and
have
the
material
made
up
plainly
and
substantially,
but
avoid
carefully
any
article
of
dress
that
is
glaring
or
conspicuous.
Above
all,
never
wear
jewelry,
(unless
it
be
your
watch,)
or
flowers;
they
are
both
in
excessively
bad
taste.
A
quiet,
unpretending
dress,
and
dignified
demeanor,
will
insure
for
a
lady
respect,
though
she
travel
alone
from
Maine
to
Florida.
If
you
are
obliged
to
pass
the
night
upon
a
steamboat
secure,
if
possible,
a
stateroom.
You
will
find
the
luxury
of
being
alone,
able
to
retire
and
rise
without
witnesses,
fully
compensates
for
the
extra
charge.
Before
you
retire,
find
out
the
position
and
number
of
the
stateroom
occupied
by
your
escort,
in
case
you
wish
to
find
him
during
the
night.
In
times
of
terror,
from
accident
or
danger,
such
care
will
be
found
invaluable.
