IRE Pennsylvania Railroad. As in Boudoir or Club. Reminder Bulletin. The Limited trains of the Pennsylvania Railroad appeal to the women as well as the men. The exclusive drawing rooms and com- partments, the bright and cheery obser- vation parlor, the ladies’ maid and mani- curist, the inviting dining car, the books and periodicals, all yield a sense of particu- lar service that women like. There are cosy corners in these big trains where one may be lost to everything save the fas- cination of smooth motion. As for the men, they know of the fit- ness of the club smoker, the aptness of barber and bath, the utility of the stenog- rapher and the worth of the stock reports. _It is either business or pleasure with them, or a combination of both. All these exceptional features are at hand on the PENNSYLVANIA LIMITED leaving New York at 10:55 A. M., the ST. LOUIS LIMITED at 10:55 A. M., the PENNSYLVANIA SPECIAL (18 hours between New York and Chicago) |(- at 3:55 P. M. and the TWENTY-FOUR HOUR ST. LOUIS at 6:25 P. M. This group of trains represents the highest skill of train construction, equip- ment and operation. Right Up There (Continued from page 529) “We don’t agree," he said quietly at last. “That's plain.

"? he asked. “No, sir!" “The whole thing couldn't have cost you more than thirty thousand, if that. Tl give you fifty thousand for it.” “No, si “T'll give you seventy-five.”” “Not for sale.” “Nonsense! I've never seen a place yet that wasn’t for sale. I'll give you eighty-five.” SCHOOL OF Voice.toty nnd Mind ratoet tor clture and EXPRESSION cise.

The whole force of his pride was working. He didn't think anything of buying a hundred thousand shares of almost any stock. Merlin pushed up the bar leading in- side. “Won't you step into my office," he i VM see about this. He ushered the way into his private den and offered his visitor a seat “TL don't know whether I want to take you up or not,"’ he said, “but I must confess it is tempting. Now, if you will excuse me for just a moment, I should like to consult with a friend and sce what he thinks about it I'll be back in five minutes.”’ As a matter of fact he was gone nearly fifteen. Selzig savagely puffed his Ha- vana, He was a man of impulse and action and he didn’t like to be kept wait- ing. “Well?” he said, as Merlin came back. “You must remember that your com- ing into this neighborhood is going to raise the price of real estate."’ “Hal" Selzig turned on him with a large smile. “And so you are not so dull as I thought! "" he exclaimed. “ All this talk of yours about being unselfish and virtuous and so forth—well, I guess I had it sized up. I know the kind. I've dealt with you before. Will you accept?
