For Railway Passengers Guidance.

SUMMARY OF THE NEW TIMB table. Tlio alterations and amendment* to tli© railway time table have reduced many a citizen to the Btato of John Jones, costermonger, some time of London, made illustrious by a song writer who sang of him that "since Jack Jones came into a little bit of oof 'e dunno where e' arel" Tho experiences of varying time tables during the past three or four months have left dubious impressions in the minds of citizens, and quite a number have missed their passages through confusing last month • times with those of the present. No doubt there will be general appreciation felt for the summary of train times, which will be printed in "The Chronicle" from day to day, until familiarity cures the present doubtfulness with which residents in various localities are a (Hided.

As previously mentioned, there aro several wayside stations at which one or moro of tho above trains will stop whenever passengers desire to bo set down or taken up. Local residents may ascertain which aro tho trains which cater for their towns, and may then work out, from tho above figures, the time which the train will take to travel from tho station immediately preceding. The Auckland express reaches Palmerston, from the North, at 12.40 p.m. and arrives at Thorndon at 4.7 p.m. The Auckland express leaves Thorudon at 12.15 p.m. and roaches Palmerston at 3.35 p.m.
