The Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul
Railway has made an arrangement with
a first-class publishing house to furnish
a series of beautiful World's Pair pic-
tures'et large size, at the nominal
cod to the purchaser of only ten cents
for a portfolio of sixteen illuatratiops.
Nothing so handsome in reference to the

The series would be worth $12 if the
pictures were not published in such
large quantities, and we are therefore
able to furnish these works of art for
only ten cents.
Remit your money to George H.
Heafford, General Passenger Agent,
Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Rail-
way, at Chicago, Ill., and the pictures
will be sent promptly to any specified
address. They will make a handsome
holiday' gift.
