    men000925_Chicago and Alton Railroad, menu, page 2 <br> <br> <br> “Now good digestion wait on appetite, <br> And health on both.” - Macbeth. <br> <br> <br> An interesting matter for those who patronize <br> THE <br> CHICAGO & ALTON R.R. <br> <br> <br> (From the CHICAGO NEWS LETTER, March 1, 1884.) <br> THE LATEST. <br> THE CHICAGO & ALTON RAILROAD ever on the alert for the comfort and <br> well-being of its passengers has added another to the many comforts which <br> people already meet with on its line. The latest idea is a Train Lunch <br> which is served to those who cannot afford high-priced meals. These <br> lunches are served by colored waiters employed by the Company, and the <br> bill of fare they carry covers everything needful at a price which will enable <br> everybody on the train to take ample care of the inner man. The ALTON <br> is the progressive line of America and the people who have charge of its <br> affairs seem determined to keep the lead in all matter which effect the well- <br> being of the passengers. <br> <br> <br> These Lunches are now served under the immediate supervision of the <br> Superintendent of Dining Cars and have been made a special feature of our <br> road. For the present they will be served on Night Trains in both directions <br> between Chicago and St. Louis, and on Denver Express Trains in both <br> directions between Chicago and Kansas City. <br> <br> <br> Passengers will please report any inattention or incivility on the part of waiters to <br> M.L. LYNCH, <br> Superintendent Dining Cars, Chicago. <br> <br> <br> C.H. CHAPPELL, <br> General Manager. <br> <br> <br> JAMES CHARLTON, <br> General Passenger and Ticket Agent. <br> <br> <br> Shepard & Johnston Printers 140 to 146 Monroe St., Chicago. <br>
