One of the cars that is attracting atten-

garage. The car has been sold, but Is be-

purchaser. AS one takes a seat in 1t he

train is complete in its furnishings and

Ing like those in drawing-room Pullman,

coat hangers, clocks. card cases, book
racks lights writing desk and such things
that make the machine a travelling home.
