EXTENSIVE CONNECTIONS
Are very desirable when about to make
selection of railroad line if your jour
ney is to be at all long one. "The
Burlington" - Chicago, Burlington &
Northern r. R.-is admirably "fxed"
IN this respect. At Chicago it connects
in union depot with leading lines for the
seabord cities, New York and Boston;
at Peoria with roads East and South; at
st. Louis with Southwestern transcon-
tinental and Southern lines; and at st.
Paul and Minneapolis in Union depots
with the Northwestern and Oregon rail-
roads.
Purchase your tickets by "The Burl,
ington'-be sure that they read "via
Chicago, Burlington q Northern Rail-
road"-and you will have no trouble in
making connections for any point in the
United States or Canada. Ask your
agent for tickets via this line. If he
don't have them write to W. J. c.
Kenyon, Gen. Pass. Agent, c., B. & n.
r. r., ST. Paul, MINI.
