When
in
the
car
if
you
find
the
exertion
of
talking
painful,
say
so
frankly;
your
escort
cannot
be
offended.
Do
not
continually
pester
either
your
companion
or
the
conductor
with
questions,
such
as
"Where
are
we
now?"
"When
shall
we
arrive?"
If
you
are
wearied,
this
impatience
will
only
make
the
journey
still
more
tedious.
Try
to
occupy
yourself
with
looking
at
the
country
through
which
you
are
passing,
or
with
a
book.
If
you
are
traveling
without
any
escort,
speak
to
the
conductor
before
you
start,
requesting
him
to
attend
to
you
whilst
in
the
car
or
boat
under
his
control.
Sit
quietly
in
the
cars
when
they
reach
the
depot
until
the
first
bustle
is
over,
and
then
engage
a
porter
to
procure
for
you
a
hack,
and
get
your
baggage.
If
upon
a
boat,
let
one
of
the
servants
perform
this
office,
being
careful
to
fee
him
for
it.
Make
an
engagement
with
the
hackman,
to
take
you
only
in
his
hack,
and
enquire
his
charge
before
starting.
In
this
way
you
avoid
unpleasant
company
during
your
drive,
and
overcharge
at
the
end
of
it.
If
you
expect
a
friend
to
meet
you
at
the
end
of
your
journey,
sit
near
the
door
of
the
steam-boat
saloon,
or
in
the
ladies'
room
at
the
car
depot,
that
he
may
find
you
easily.
