TO LOS ANGELF.S AND SOUTHEKX CALI- 

 FORNIA. 



Every Friday night, at 10.35 p. m., a 

 through Tourist Car for Los Angeles and 

 Southern California, leaves the Chicago, 

 Milwaukee & St. Paul Railway Union 

 Pas-senger Station, Chicago, via Omaha, 

 Colorado Springs and Salt Lake Citj-, for 

 all points in Colorado, Utah, Nevada and 

 California. 



In addition to the regular Pullman 

 porter, each car is accompanied by an in- 

 telligent, competent and courteous "cour- 

 ier," who will attend to the wants of pas- 

 sengers en route. This is an entirely new 

 feature of tourist car service, and will be 

 appreciated by families or by ladies 

 traveling alone. Particular attention is 

 paid to the care of children, who usually 

 get wean^- on a long journey. 



These tourist cars are sleeping cars 

 supplied with all the accessories necessary 

 to make the journey comfortable and 

 pleasant, and the berth rate (each berth 

 will accommodate two persons) is only 

 J6.00 from Chicago to California. Ask 

 the nearest ticket agent for a tourist car 

 folder, or address Harry Mercer, Michi- 

 gan Pass, .\gent, 22 Campus Martins,

THE COME'ANIONS NEW CALENDER. 



The Youth's Companion Calendar 

 for 1900 is unique in form and beautiful 

 in design. The oval centerpiece, in high 

 colors and enclosed in a border of flowers, 

 represents " .\ Dream of Summer" and 

 is supported on either side bj' an admira- 

 bly executed figure piece in delicate tints. 

 The whole is delightful in sentiment and 

 in general effect. Larger than any of 

 The Companion's previous Calendars, it 

 is equally acceptaple as a work of art. 

 .•\s an ornament to the home it will take 

 a pre-minent place.

 by The Comp.\nion. It cannot be ob- 

 tained elsewhere. It will be given to all
