DINING CARS

The gratifying manner In which
the travelling public has taken to the
innovation sprung on 1t some time
back by the Burlington in the shat e
of a wall papered Qess homely ard
more homelike) dining car. which
the sculptor and art critic Laredo
Taft pronounced the most beautiful
dining car he has ever SEEM" has
led this progressive road to carry
the experiment further. Eight new,
all steel, wall papered seventy-nine
foot diners, seating thirty-six passen-
gers at time, will be delivered to
the Burlington by the builders with
in a very short time. There is an
absolute absence Of dust-collecting
fixtures in these cars-the indirect,
concealed system OF lighting having
been used; they are heavily insulated
with regard to both cold and noise
and special attention has been given
to the matter of sanitation. Each
car will carry an entirely different
scheme Of wall decoration, so that
passenger making a trip which re-
quires him to eat m ore than one meal
enroute may enjoy the luxury of din
ing In a new restaurant on wheels"
at each meal.
The new diners will be placed in
service on the Chicago-St. Paul. Chi
cago-D Denver, ChicagoKa City
and ST. Louis-Denver trains Of the
Burlington in time to accommodate
the rush Of summer tourists to the
