CHAMBER FINALLY
STOPS CARS HERE
Richmond Pullman on Coast
Line Trains Expected to
Help Boost Trade.
WILL BRING MORE TOURISTS
Travellers Go By Now Because
They Won't Leave Sleeper
Long Before Daylight.

! Exactly what a little thing like a
sleeping car is worth to big town
| will be put to a test after November
l, when the Atlantic Coast Line Rail-
road, acting finally at the urgent re-
| quest of the Chamber of Commerce.
VIII inaugurate additional Pullman
! service between Richmond and Flor
| ida points
For some months committee from
me chamber has been impressed with
the fact that the city was losing trade
ana the hotels large share of the
tourist business because of the sched-
ule which forced travellers to leave
thelr uiimans at the Byrd Street Sta
ton at 4:+0 o'clock in the morning.
Inc train arriving from the South at
.hat hour carried no sleeper which was
cropped here, while the southbound
train arriving at l A. NJ picked up no
Pullman for Richmond.
AS result, however, of a conference
ana much correspondence. 1t was an
sounced by the chamber yesterday
that the Atlantic Coast Line mad
man on these trains, which means
mat the car arriving here at 4:4O
CLOCK in the morning Will be switched
OH at Byrd Street so that passengers
The same car will so out the next
morning at l o'clock, but 1t will be
open for passengers at or 10 o'clock
In the evening.
Merchants. and especially wholesale
deaHars, who have been advocating |
gust such service, contend that 1t Will |
brlng buyers here in larger numbers |
than ever before, for the reason that /
many preferred to go to Baltimore |
rather than put up with the unsatls-
factory sleeping schedule. While
Richmond, of course, does not expect |
to bring Florida buyers, it will mean
that more merchants from the Caro-
mas Will come jobbers estimating
mat while the thing looks small in
Itself. 1t Will largey increase trade
relations with those states.
Helps Tourist Business.
Even In the tourist season, when the
Atlantic Coast Line operates special Il
trains between New York and ST. Au-
sustine, Richmond got very little of
this business, because the tourists
would not get out of a sleeper here
before daylight. Manager Weisiger,
Of the Jefferson Hotel. said yesterday I.
that Florida Richmond Pullman will
Increase the tourist trade of the JEFF 4
serson fully % per cent. during the !
winter months. |,
The lack of conveniences heretofore
las been regarded as handicap by ,
business and hotel men in this city, (.
md the chamber is rather much elated
'Ner the fact that the new schedule c
VII be put into effect the first OF next j
month. 1t was explained by the rail- 7
Dad people that the through trains \
we're too heavily burdened TO haul an / !

Never before in the history of the

Why do people who do not eat pork
as meat continue to use it in the form OF
lard? Lard is just as indigestible as
pork. In recent article on cooking
fats, Or, Paige Emery, the eminent spe-
calist, writes as follows:
tion of the cooking fat problem Is the
use Of Cottolene. Cottolene is purely g
vegetable product is easily assimilated.
have shown coIclusively that when a
vegetable oil Is used In cooking In pref
erence to animal fat, it Is more easily as.
simulated and yields far more nourishment
to the body"
Cottolcne is not only wholesome; it is
economical as well, one-third less being
reguired.
