A Word of Advice 90 travellers.

The Missouri, Kansas and Texas railway
has become so well known to the people of
Texas, ~ one OF the finest and most COM
Portable roads on the continent TO travel on,
that II seems almost unnecessary that we
should say ought in Its praise. Yet We can
not ever get back from trip over this line
without saying something In praise of the
management, who always seem To he striv-
ing to make their patrons comfortable while
travelling over their road. The track is al
ways In the best possible condition, and
trains are AT all times run at uniform speed.
Pullman's Finest Drawing Room Sleeping
cars accompany all through passenger trains,
and II you are going north or east, by maxi
Ing your wants known, you can go either via
Hannibal or st. Louis. And for Kansas
City, Denver, California or any Of the north
western states or territories, II Is much the
best route we have from Texas. Their din
ing stations and hours for meals are all that
traveller could wish for, and in fact there
seems TO be nothing left undone 10 render a
trip over this line pleasant. 2S5dtf
