Travelers on business or bent on pleas tin, invariably visit one o! the great cities of the West, if their journey is at all prolonged. Nowhere else can be seen such centres of enterprise and American vim as in Chicago or Kansas City, and few invite lovefB of elegance and beauty like St. Louis. In going further into the "Great West" there are various routes the tourist may select, but supposing the •tart is made from Chicago the great starting point of western travel, no line can be found more desirable than the Chicago & Alton, the great "Three Link" route, and its unsurpassed connections. Elegant cars, courteous train men, a first class track, and every convenience that modern railroading employs is here found for safety and comfort. The coun­ try traversed is unexcelled for beauty of scenery--the vertible garden of the conti­ nent. Be sure and secure tickets of the Chicago & Alton if you would have a pleasant journey. INTELLIGENT people, who ore familiar with the respective advantages which are offered by the several competing railroad lines between Chicago, St. Louis and Kansas City, and who desire to travel with the utmost speed, safety and com­ fort, always take the popular and relia- » ble Chicago & Alton Railroad between these points, and passengers going to or ' coming from the South, via St. Louis, or when going to or coming from the West, via Kansas City, should insist upon hav­ ing tickets that read over the Chicago & Alton. It is the only road with three complete and elegantly equipped trains between Chicago and each point named, and no railroad managers in America have a more intelligent appreciation of the wants of the traveling public than do those of the famous Chicago & Alton. "If mt . SUDDEN DEATHS. Heart disease is by far the most fre- auent cause of sadden death, which in iree out of four cases is unsuspected. The symptoms are not generally under­ stood. These are: a habit of lying on the right side, short breath, pain or dis­ tress in side, back or shoulder, irregular pulse, asthma, weak and hungry spells, wind in stomach, swelling of ankles or dropsy, oppression, dry cough and smothering. Dr. Miles' illustrated book on heart disease free at Geo. W. Besley's, who sells and guarantees I)r. Miles' un- equaled New Heart Cure, and his Restor­ ative Nervine, which cures nervousness, headache, sleeplessness, effects of drink­ ing, etc. It contains no opiates. V MERIT WINS. W« desire to say to oar cituens that for years we have been selling Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, Dr. King's New Life Pills, Bucklen's Arnica Salve and Electric Bitters, and have never handled remedies that sell as well, or that have given such universal satis­ faction. We do not hesitate to guaran­ tee them every time, and we stand ready to refund the purchase price, if satisfac­ tory results do not follow their use. These remedies have won their great pop­ ularity purely on their merits. G. W. BEBLEY, Druggist. -v ill* Atade only I am laden with freight From ttjejrolden gat«. To lands across Hi® sea.
