Nurseries on Railroad Trains.

Now comes the travelling nursery to
take its place alongside the barber shop
bath room, etc, on our fast trains. The
travelling nursery is to take up about the
same amount of space as the private
stateroom of the ordinary sleeping car.
There will be a saving of space of sew
eral feet. however, as the wide seats on
the sides of the stateroom below the
berths are not needed in the nursery, be-
ing replaced by ottomans and tiny easy
chairs scattered over the floor. In this
way any danger from sudden starts or
sharp curves is obviated. AS a further
protection against injury to the little
ones the walls of the nursery are heavily
padded and the floor thickly carpeted so
that bumps and bruises will be altogether
avoided. At each end of the compart-
cots in which the smaller children lie
and watch the games of the older ones.
Each car containing the nursery attach
ment VIII carry "a matron or nurse. who
Will be selected with a special referenc,

ment of the simpler remedies for childish
ailments. miniature toy shop is an
other adjunct of the travelling nursery.
and IL VIII contain everything from baby
rattleS to picture books and fairy tales.
Nothing in short, will be missing that
would add to the comfort or amusement
OF the young travellers.-Railway Review.
