harder than ever during the long days
of summer, feels that he can leave
the boys to fodder the cattle and car
ny swill to the pigs, while he takes a

in the East, he will not go to Europe,
but try to see some of his own coun-
try, the Dakotas and the Pacific North
west, or California and the Rockies.
To do this, rail travel must be his
means, and his enjoyment of the trip
will depend mnch on his selection of a
line. In whatever direction he goes
he will find 1.-The Burlington" unpar-
alleled for speed, safety and comfort,
