FROM POVERTY no WEALTH.

George NJ. Pullman was born poor
boy. He died a multi-millionaire be-
cause his practical mind conceived a
good thing in railroading and he had
business capacity sufficient to see 1t and
to profit by It. He was born in New
York and worked in a store until he
was II years old. Then he joined his
brother in the cabinet-making business.
Not until he was % years old did he
branch out for himself. The State of
New York decided to widen the Erie
canal. To do so It was necessary to
move many warehouses and other
buildings which occupied sites on the
sides OF the artificial waterway. He
contracted to do this work and was
successful In his undertaking.
In 1858, while travelling on the rail-
road. his attention was called to the
dlscomforts of travel, particularly at
night. That circumstances brought him
both fame and fortune. In 1863 he
went to Chicago where he converted
two old day coaches into sleeping cars,
and the public appreciated them immc-
diately Then he built the Pioneer. at
cost OF 1000, and it's success led 10
the present great system of vestibuled
cars which is the wonder of the world.
He not only founded an immense plant,
but he also founded the town OF Pull
man, which now contains II, 900 inhabi-
tants IL is a model town, and one OF
the healthiest in the world.
Mr.. Pullman was great public bene-
factor, and as such he will be long re-
membered.
