PUBLISHERS'S DEPARTM'T 



Going West. 



The advice given by Horace 

 Greeley so many years ago, to go 

 west, is being followed every day 

 by an increasingly large number of 

 men and women. Some go to 

 stay, to build new homes, others 

 for pleasure, still others go to look 

 after great business interests, but 

 they go, and they one and all wish 

 to go by a route which combines 

 safety, speed and convenience in 

 traveling. This is the reason why 

 so many choose the Nickel Plate 

 Road. From Buffalo to Chicago 

 its line lies almost as straight as 

 an arrow, and intersected at such 

 frequent intervals by connecting 

 roads that the map looks as if the 

 road should be named "Through 

 line to everywhere." More than 

 thirty connections are given, reach- 

 ing out in every direction. Then 

 too, many travelers demand a cer- 

 tain amount of luxury when travel- 

 ing, and Wagner cars between New 

 York, Boston, Buffalo, and Chica- 

 go. The uniformed colored por- 

 ters in charge of day coaches, and 

 the unsurpassed dining car service, 

 supply this. Accommodations may 



be secured in advance by address- 

 ing Mr. F. J. Moore, 23 Exchange 

 St., Buffalo, N. Y. He can give 

 details as to rates, connections, 

 and all necessary arrangements, 

 both east and west of Chicago. —

Our Premium List Supplement 

 was issued for the purpose of in- 

 creasing the circulation of our 

 publications, but if you are already 

 a subscriber to either or both of 

 them we will cheerfully fill your 

 order for any article offered there- 

 in at prices quoted — should any of 

 these prices seem high you can 

 rest assured that there is either 

 quality or quantity, perhaps 

 both, back of them to fully satisfy 

 the most avaricious collector. 

 Try, and be convinced — remember 

 "Lattin" always "Guarantees 

 Satisfaction. "
