a smile that cheers the hearts of

Have You Heard of the
New Kansas City Train?
Leaves Oklahoma City daily at 7 :30 p. m. via Missouri, Kansas &
Texas R'y—arrives Kansas City at 8 :40 a. m. the following morning,
making all important connections.
This train carries a through (buffet) sleeper to Kansas City, and chair
cars.
Change of cars is one of the greatest inconveniences of travel. You
don't have to change cars if you travel via the Missouri, Kansas & Texas
Railway. Through trains (over its ra,ils) run from Oklahoma City to
Kansas City and St. Louis. All through trains have Chair Cars and
Pullman Sleepers.

from the Creek nation. He will work
for his brother, B. E. Arnold.
We wish to correct the mistake in
last week's items ; Mr. Pickett pur-
chased one half of the southeast
quarter of section twenty, instead of
half section.
M. K. & T. trains leave Oklahoma City daily at 10 :30 a. m. and
p. m. for St. Louis, Hannibal, Sedalia, Nevada, Ft. Scott, Kansas
Parsons, Joplin, Galena, Columbus, Coffeyville, Bartlesville etc.
