Mr. F. J. HiLLiAcn, sec SOMETHING AIIOUT OOl NO EAST. The shortest possible route between the Great West and the East, North and South, is over the St- Louis, Kansas City and Northern Short Liioe.

nis road nas gained surprising impor tance by reason of immense expenditures in tbe last two years, of over two millions dollars, besides earnings, in improvements of road-way, in relaying their line with best quality of new steel and iron rails, on broad new tics, and by substituting for ordinary cars, new reclining chair coacbes, elejrantlv carpeted and fitted. with dressing rooms with -toilet conveniences for ladies, gentlemen and families traveling with children, without wig extra charge. This line runs six fast' Exprc trains between the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers, two more than any other road, and connects with all the great through lines East, West, North and Sonth. It is remarkably exempt from accidents by reason of adopting every modern appliance for comfort, speed and safety, including night and day watchmen, who inspect the road before and after the pasage of each train to see that everything is secure. We recommend those contemplating a trip East to take the St.

Louis, Kansas City A Northern Short Line, either through St. Louis, the great metropolis of over" 450,000 inhabitants, or through Chicago, via the Chicago A Alton Short Line, over the Lousiana Bridge no open for passage of through trains. Ticket Agent of connecting roads selling through tickets to the East, North or South, will furnish tickets by this excellent line.
