hotel cars and railroad meal stations
than they do at home or in hotels.
They spend more nights in sleeping
car hunks than in beds. To a person
who travels only occasionally it ia in
teresting to note how thoroughly
equipped these professional journey
ers are. Upon entering a sleeping
car early in the evening, for instance,
they remove their shoes and put on
slippers, hang their hat up and don
silk travelling caps, take off thei. coats
and put on short sack coats or smok-
ing jackets.
In the morning when the occa-
sional traveller. obliged to wear the
only clothing he has brought. goes to
the toilet compartment in his coat
and vest, and thus struggles in an
effort to cleanse his skin without
soaping his sleeves or his eoat::oollar,
these professionals again excite his
envy. They come along all smiles,
having slept swell, and feeling per-
feetly at home. They hang up their
smoking jackets and display snowy
white robes, ornamented with colored
binding and braid, and capable of
being thrown open at the neck and
rolled up above the elbows. From a
pocket ia the suspended jacket one
produces an ivory-backed brush and
costly comb, toothbrush. and per-
haps a nickel-plated soap box.
Another opens out q prettily en-
broidered receptacle, composed of
many folds. each one q pocket and
each one labelled. In these pockets
are q comb, q brush, a tooth. brush,
soap box, pair of razor cases, nail
brush, whisk broom, hand glass and
cologne bottle.
The familiarity with their sur
roundings is as noticeable part of
their equipment. A glance ont of the
car Window is almost certain toreveal
to them their whereabouts when they
arise or when they are walked up, or
are about to 60 to bed. They carry
their timetables in their heads, and
give good advice as to which station
has the best caterer. They are socia-
BILE and democratic.
