Five liiimitcs' stop at the Williams railroad station you breathe enough good air to start every red and white corpuscle attending to business. Only the power that made it could describe this country, the level stretches covered' with green trees, flooded with warm winter sunshine, mountains in every direction covered with snow, and those mountains start at an elevation of 7000 to 8000 feet. The sky is as blue as the waters of the Mediterranean, and not a cloud as 1ig as a man's little finger. What looks like a little cloud off to the northeast is a three-quarter moon, faint as a transparent skull in the blue sky. Beyond question this country and great stretches of Xcw Mexico and Colorado adjoining it seem made by Divine Wis dom for a superior race worthy or it. If in the meanwhile you can send your children out to spend the winter in this country, they would be almost super-children an the return. " "'" - How it would delight the late V tieorgc M. Pullman, father of all sleeping cars, if he could see the wonderful trains that carry his name back and forth across the continent today, traius of solid steel, ears SO feet long, beautifully made, and inexpressibly comfortable. They arc different from the one with which he started business, sell ing tickets himself on the plat forms in Chicago, the passen ger paying 50 cents for the right to one-half of a berth. Ho told how he sold one-half a berth to a tall, lanky individ ual, and how the 'man who bought the other half complain ed that there was no room for )iiiu, because the first man in the berth had such long legs. The first man was Abraham Lincoln, who obligingly dou bled up his legs as iuuchas he could to let the other man have li is half of the 1erth.
