TO THE WE8TfT0THE7ESTl
Belore making your arrangements to fol
low the advice of the "thousands who have
already gone," it would be well to consider
what has been done to make the journey to
your -'Homes in the West" as pleasant and
free from danger as human skill and fore
sight can accomplish.
By consolidation and construction, a road
has been put into operation on the shortest
possible line from Nashville, Tenn., to St.
I,oui3, "the future great City of the world."
This line, the
ST. LOUIS & SOUTHEASTERN RAIL
WAY, has, during the past year, earned an envia
ble reputation by its smooth track, prompt
time, sure connections, and the magnifi
cence of its passenger equipment. Its
traius arc made up of new and commodious
day cars, provided with the celebrated Mil
ler coupler and p'atform, and the Westing
houto air-brake.
It is positively ilieoi.ly line i mining
Pulliuau P.ilidc Drawiug Booui fIc ping
Cars through without change Irom Nasn
ville to St. Louis. No other line p cteuds
to otfor such nd vintages, either iu distance,
time, 'r equipment. Why, then, journey
"by circuitous routes? Do not be induced
to purchase tickets to St. . Louis or the
West by any other line, remember that
The "St. Louis & Southeastern"
is the ehortest, cheapest, quickest, best and
only line under one management from
Nashville to 8t. Louis, and is from GO to
200 miles the shortest to St.?Louis, Kansas
City, Omaha, Denver, California, Texas,
aud all western points. It is also the "Chi
eigo Shortest Line," via Evantville.
You can secure the cheapest rates for
yourselves and your movables on applica
tion, in person or by letter, 4o Charles
