Popular LOw-Frice California
Excursions.

The Santa Fe Route daily excursions
to California in tourist sleeping cars are
deservedly popular. The service pleases
everybody who tries it. Cars are of
newest pattern and very comfortable,
having all necessary cOnveniences.
These excursions are patroniZed by
many of the best people, and the ticket
rates are low.
The Santa Fe's California line is re-
markably picturesque. Its middle course
across the continent avoids extremes of
heat or cold.
