Nowhere in the world will $200 buy so
much comfort , satisfaction and pleasure
as in California.
There are fifty places near Los Ange
les which can be reached in from one to
three hours , and at a cost of from ten
cents to four or five dollars. There is
Santa Monica , for instance , right on the
sea coast and surrounded by scenes of
remarkable beauty. Santa Barbara , one
of the prettiest places in Southern Cali
fornia , is but four hours ride from Los
Angeles. San Diego , which enjoys the
reputation of having the most perfect
climate in America , is only 120 miles
distant. Pasadena , the winter home of
millionaires from all parts of the coun
try , is to all intents and purposes a
suburb of Los Angeles.
These , and many other equally at
tractive places , are described in "Cali
fornia , " a book of 72 pages , published
by the passenger department of the Bur
lington Route and mailed to any address
on receipt of six cents in stamps.
The Burlington Route is the line to
take to California. It runs through
standard sleeping cars daily from Omaha
to San Francisco ; tourist sleeping cars ,
three times a week , Omaha to Los
Angeles. One car runs by way of Kan
sas City and the Santa Fe ; the others via
Denver and the "Scenic Line. " A good
plan to follow is to go west by one of
these lines , returning by the other. No
additional expense is involved and the
sight-seeing opportunities are just twice
as great as would be the case if you used
the same railroad in both directions.
