"HOW TO GO WEST

Forty years ago, Illinois was as far West
as most people wished TO go, and journeys
were made IN the legendary "Prairie Schoon-
err but in these days Of Progress and I'm
provsment, tile word West has come TO mean
Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado, Califor-
MIA md the Territories, and the traveller reach
es almost any point therein BY splendid line
of Railroad.
This Line OF Railroad IS the Burlington and
Missouri River Railroad, running irem Bur-
ling;on to Omaha. Lincoln, Nebraska CITY,
st, Joseph, Atchlson, Leavenworth and Kan
sas City, connecting with the Union Pacific
Kansas Pacific and other Railroads running
from those cities
People going to Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas,
California, or any point in the Territories,
will study their own interests BY going BY
way of Burlington" for TIE rates of that
Line are always as low as any other, and it
is the best Route in the West, therefore YOU
are more sure Of your safety and comfort.
The Burlington Route has admirably ans
werd the question Chow to go West?" by
the publication of an Excellent Pamphlet,
containing large, truthful map of the Great
West, and much interesting and valuable in

people are complaining some Of
hard times just now, owing TO the

destined to have one Of the richest
farming regions here west Of the Mis-

An "Old Mill II the WYOMING Va

An cold Mill IN the Wyoming Val-
ley" by f. L. Vance, is picturesque
tit Of Pennsylvania scenery. A
series OF Illustrations of the Adiron-
dack region, the famous North Woods
OF New York, is worthily commenc-
ed with q magnificent full page view
By George Smile, entitled Morning
on the Ausable." The rising sun,
dispelling the mists of early dawn,
dscloses a scene of wood, mountain,
and water of the rarest beauty. "The
Truants," by Miss NJ. H. Stone, is a
natural and attractively drawn group
OF boys, just such boys as might be
seen playing "hookey' any where in
this great country of common schools.
But the feature of this number is the
tulI.page cut, Manifest Destiny"
after a drawing by w NJ. Cary. An
Indian in hot pursuit of buffalo bull,
is intercepted and foiled Of his game
by white man, whose drawn revolv-
er and determined gaze very plainly
announces that he considers tho an
imal ahead his meat The headlong
rush of pursuers and pursued is a
powerful effect and is handled in d
mastery manner The truth to ma
ture Of Mr.. Cary's drawing is shown
in the careful delneation Of even the
wild grasses and shrubs of the plain
from the looks Of the mountains we
should Judge the scene to be some-
where in the Yellowstone region.
Mr.. Stoddard furnishes an original
poem to accompany the picture and
treats the Indian question in a truly
western spirit, rather novel as COM
pared with the usual flow of senti-
ment from the east. There are some
beautiful specimens of the highly
ornate architecture OF Portugal and
the beginning of series of ilustra-
TORS BY Gilbert Burling Our Feath-
cred Pets-"Tho Song Sparrow" re,
ceiyes the attention of Mr.. BurliDg's
pen as we'll as pencil, and this feature
will be by no means the least attrac-
ton which The AldiRe offers to peoo
pie Of refine taste. We are glad to
learn that The Aidine is meeting a
very hattering success, not alone
from the larger and weather. towns,
but from the smallest hamlets and
newest neighborhoods, showing that
this country is fully prepared to sup
port the highest forms OF art. We
should be pleased TO hear that our
town was well represented among
tie patrons of The Aldins. The pub
fishers are James Sutton Il Co, %
Liberty Street, New York, and the
subscription price is So, whichs in
cIudes handsome oil chrome.
