LONDON, July 17.—If American
voyagers have qualms about sea trav
eling after a voyage from New York
to London, a short sojourn in Lon
don before continuing across the
channel to Paris or the North sea to
Holland is not designed, just at pres
ent, to act as a sedative to frazzled
nerves.
Outfitters’ shops, liberally scattered
in Americans’ usual London itinrv
ary, and the newspapers, constantly
sound the warning “Be Prepared.”
Display windows of these outfit
ters’ shops are constantly filled with
patent life belts, while the newspa
pers are reaping a harvest of adver
tisements pointing out the relative
merits of “Somebody’s Patent Waist
coat.”
A news column also is occasionally
devoted to a new invention which ap
pears like an ordinary suit of clothes
but fs capable of floating the heaviest
man.
Here is a sample “ad” from a big
London daily which injects a doubt
into the mind of the most intrepid
civilian sea dog!:
“DO NOT RELY ON DEATH
TRAP LIFE BELTS WHICH TURN
UNCONSCIOUS WEARERS FACE
DOWNWARD AND DROWN THEM.
“REMEMBER THE MALOJA
AND SUSSEX DISASTERS. OUR
WAISTCOAT MAKES DROWNING
IMPOSSIBLE BY TURNING THE
WEARER WHEN HE CEASES TO
: STRUGGLE.
“It has saved hundreds of lives
I from the Lusitania, Falaba, Costello,
Kyi Edward, India, Persia, Galicia
and other well known disasters.”
The “ad” is fortified by illustra
tions showing the “unconscious” sur
vivor floating serenely on his back,
while others (who failed to go pre
pared) are maneuvering through the
preliminaries of a watery death.
One • manufacturer of life saving
waistcoats quotes in his “ad” from
the experiences of a real life Lord
who owes his present status to his
foresight in purchasing a wa.stcoat
before venturing on the Mediterran
ean.
There are many and divers models
of life-saving waistcoats. Inquiry to
day elicited that the sale of all mod
els since the latest German submarine
campaign, has been enormous.
Some models may be worn as an
ordinary vest. The prospective sur
vivor has only to reach down and ex
tract a little tube, with a valve at
tached from somewhere in his shirt
front.
When danger comes he simply in- ;
dates the vest like a football and he 1
is ready for the worst.
All travelers from England wear
their waistcoast day and night while
in the danger zones.
The American who leaves London
without this little necessity is in a
class by himself.
HOTEL IN CLASS
ALL BY ITSELF
The Daily Times is not particularly
boosting for any one Seattle Hotel
but when word comes from that city
that one of the management of the
New Richmond Hotel is an old tried
and true friend of Xome and Candle
creek days it believes in stretching j
a point. And a peculiar coincidence
in connection with the matter is that
in a reminiscent talk last night the
name of 11. K. Mac Rae was men- j
tioned in connection with several of
the deeds of the frozen north that
have made history and put Alaska
on the map.
When '.laska lost Mr. Mac Kae
the coast cities from Portland to Se
attle gained, for in him the hotel
business found a gentleman excep
tionally well qualified for this line
and the old Alaskans knew where to
go for proper and courtons treatment.
Mr. Mac Rae has been connected, as
manager, with some of the leading
hotels of the coast cities, being identi
fied with the famous New Oregon, at
Portland and several others of high
class reputation.
If Mr. MacRae says so it is true
and he writes that the New Richmond
hotel of Seattle is in the class A when
it comes to hotels, being absolutely
fireproof with 304 outside rooms and
200 rooms with baths and has the ad
vantage of being centrally located.
The New Richmond hotel is making
a bid for Alaskan patronage and any
old Tillicum learning of Mr. McRae’s
connection will unquestionably stop at
this hotel, knowing full well that
their comfort will be provided for and
their every want anticipat ' by this
affable, courteous manager—M. K.
MacRae.
