Tickets reading via Detroit & Cleveland Navigation Co., Detroit & -Bufialo Steamboat Co., Manitou Steamship Co., Cleveland & Buffalo Transit Co., Northern Steamship Co., Richelieu & Ontario Navigation Co., Niagara Navigation Co., Ottawa River Navigation Co., Rideau Route, Hudson River Steamers and Mississippi River steamers do not include meals and berth. The Anchor Line steamer "Japan," although large and most sea- worthy, has but a limited number of staterooms, which are -all located on the upper deck and are all outside rooms, giving ample light and air; some have a double lower berth with single berth overhead; others have two single berths. (There are no parlor rooms on the steamer '"'J: apan.") A cabin passage includes meals and a berthina stateroom, but not an entire room when there are other passengers to be accommodated. A man and his wife will always be furnished one of our best staterooms (if disengaged), without regard to the number it will accommodate. One pascenaer. occupy- ing an entire room to the exclusion of other passengers will be charged for the capacity of the room at tariff rates. Berths should be engaged in advance for both the east and west bound passages. (See instructions on pages 5 and 6.) The steamships "Juniata" and '"Tionesta" each have fourteen large parlor rooms, each with private bath and wardrobe, one large double bed and a sofa berth. An extra charge for these rooms will be made as per parlor room tariff on pages 3 and 4. The 'Juniata' and "Tionesta" each have 100 large rooms, each room is furnished with two wide berths and a sofa verth, electric lights, call bells, and running water. A few of the rooms will accommodate four persons each, having two berths and two sofa berths. A passenger holding a single ticket is entitled only to one berth in a stateroom; one or more passengers may obtain the exclusive use of a room only by paying the full passenger fare represented by the number of berths in the room. During May, June, ee and October (an exceptionally pleasant season of the year for the lake trip), the traffic not being so heavy, accom- modations can usually be secured on short notice. On the steamships "Juniata" and "Tionesta" hand baggage and steamer trunks, not exceeding fourteen inches in height, may be taken to parlors and staterooms. On the steamer "Japan" stateroom berths will not permit a steamer trunk being placed under them, and consequently only hand baggage may be taken to staterooms. All baggage, except hand baggage, is checked and is easily attainable. By showing their checks to the porter, passengers can have access to their trunks at stated hours. 150 pounds of baggage carried free on each full fare ticket; 75 pounds on each half-fare ticket. Excess baggage to local ports twelve per cent. of first-class fare per 100 pounds. Dogs and guns must be given in charge of the porter. With the excep- tion of boats, uo charge is made for sportsmans's outfits. Bicycles carried free at owner's risk. Attend to the rechecking of your baggage at the dock office before going on board of the steamer. In the event of any disagreement with the purser relative to tickets, privileges, charges, etc., passengers should accept the purser's ruling, taking proper receipt for money paid under protest, and refer the matter to the General Passenger Agent for adjustment. The purser has no discre- tionary power, but is governed by rules which he is not authorized to change. The unused portion of any ticket of this company's issue, when of any value, will be redeemed in accordance with regular rules if presented at or forwarded to the General Passenger Office, The climate of Lake Superior is exceptionally bracing, and even in midsummer the need of extra wraps is felt as soon as the steamer has left the harbor. The numerous points of interest en route invite tourists to stop over and to facilitate this the Anchor Line issues stop-over checks on all unlim- ited first-class and tourist tickets, Passengers may resume their journey upon any of the compariy's passenger steamers. : 9 MACKINAC ISLAND The particular attention of parties suffering from HAY FEVER igcalled to the well-known curative properties of the climate of Lake Superior.
