PRACTICE BETTER THAN pREACHING-THE Rx-
PER1ENCE OF THOSE WHO HAVE USED THEM
THE VERDICT ALL ONE wAY-THEY ARE LIKED
by EVERYBODY.
Read the following, and you will then be
better able to appreciate the fact that the Chi
cage Il Northwestern Railway is the teddfng
line between Chicago and Council Bluffs that
it can give you more value for your money
than any other line that it, in the use Of
these elegant hotel cars, has taken n long
stride ahead, and that if you wish the very
best accommodations, you must buy your
tickets over this rond.
The following is from the pen of Mrs.
Frank Leslie the wife of Frank Leslie, Of
Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper, who has re-
Gently published readable book under the
title of "Californin: Pleasure Trip from
Gotham to the Golden Gate 1t is needless
to say that Mr.. Leslie and his party went over
the Chicago d Northwestern Railway in
"Thc President one of its line of hotel cars
ION arriving at the Chicago a. North-Wes-
tern Railway station, we enter the famous
Pullman hotel car exhibited at the Centennial
Exposition. In the midst of the cheerful
hustle and excitement we are of, and able to
look about us at our new home. First, we
IRE impressed with the smooth and delight
full motion. We proceed to explore the
internal resources of our kingdom. We find
. one end of the car partitioned of and fit
| ted up as a kitchen, store room, scullery; re-
| minding one. in their cumpactness and varie-
| ty, of the little Partisan CUISINES where every
inch of space is utilized, and where such
modicum of wood and charcoal produces such
marvellous results. Our chet, Of ebon color
and proportions suggesting liberal sampling
of the good things he prepares wears the reg
| ulation snow white apron and cap, and gives
us cordial welcome and information, showing
us amongst other things, that his refrigera-
tor. aud harder are boxes adroitly arranged be-
| meath the car. The tables are laid for two
each, with dainty lined and the finest of glass
and china. Our repast is Delmonican in
its nature and style, consisting of soup, en-
trees, roast meats, and vegetables, followed
by the conventional dessert and the essential
| French coffee.
In these Hotel Cars the meals are Ia carte
| you pay for what you get and nothing
more and this at very reasonable rates
The managers of the Company have de-
termined to omit nothing which will add to
the convenience, safety and comfort of the
travelling public who favor them with their
patronage and further, that they will not
be eclipsed in this direction by any other
railroad in the world. Hence these cars, con
structed by the Pullman Palace Car Company
especially for the Pioneer Line, are the finest
ever built
1t is not exaggeraton to say that no road in
the world can produce the equal to these
magnificent cars and as the average traveller
wants the best of everything that can be had,
he must of necessity use this line in his trans
continental trip.
The charges dor births in these Hotel Cars
are the same and no higher rs are made in
the more common Sleeping Car. SO that the
traveller using one of these pn.atial hotels is
given much more worth for his money than
he can get on any other line.
Remember! Pullman Hotel Cars are now
running regularly between Chicago and Coun-
ell Bluffs. on the Denver and California Ex-
press Trains Of the Chicago q Northwestern
Railway. West-bound, they leave Chicago
daily, except Sunday, land on every third Sun
day. from the Wells Street Depot. at 1890 A.
NJ, and arrive at Council Bluffs next morning
East-bound they leave Council Bluffs at =. 30
p. NJ, daily except Saturday, ,and on every
third Saturday, and reach Chicago the next
afternoon.
Bear in mind No other road runs Pull
man Hotel Cars, Pullman Dining Cars, or any
other form Of Hotel, Dining, or Restaurant
Cars Nrough between Chicago and the Mis-
souri, River. On no other road can you
get all the meals you require between Chicn-
60 and Omaha without leaving the car you
start in. This is the only line that has
