A Word OF Advice.
Our readers are cautioned to make
their arrangement for tickets to points
beyond St. Paul and Minneapolis with
their home Agent of the Minneapolis &
St. Louis r. R. thereby saving in nearly
all cases not less than $3.50 in the cost
as compared with what it will amount
to if you pay local fare to these cities.
All rate disturbances have ceased and
you cannot hope to get ticket in the
Twin Cities at less than full tariff rates.
Always consult the nearest Minneapolis
&..St Louis r. r. Agent as he will be
able to obtain full information about
routes, lowest rates, etc. and can sell
tickets and check baggage through to
destination, avoiding all trouble or care
after you start.
We have found that the Minneapolis
& St. Louis r. r. always gives the low
est rates and best accommodations.
