Since the railway people began to exploit them at per ticket (excursion), and the Markenites have been brought somewhat more in contact with civilization, they have undoubt edly lost many of their unsophisticated and pro verbially primitive ways and manners. The many tarred wooden houses on the different ter pen, as the hummocks are called, which are often crudely painted in green and red stripes at the gables, do yet preserve their quaintness, and upon the arrival of the boat laden with tourists, the children, some of whom are veritable pests, gather on the dike and importune the visitors for money — Baby cents they scream, and at this shrill call out come the beggars and the old people who are forced to stay at home.
