For Railway Passengers Guidance.

THE LOOAti TIME TABLE. Searching through a railway timetacle makes most people irritahle. The railway tahle, like tike polony, contains many good things, bat the public prefer to have the one particular food (whether mental or alimentary) desired on a given occasion, not a hotchpotch of figures concerning the branch line of Toko, the side track at Waggonville, or the cross line to Nevermarch. The particular figures likely to be of benefit to dwellers between Paekakariki and Palmerston North are what readers of the Horowkenua Chronicle need most, and for our readers' convenience those figures

are now appended:—

Some of the above trains will stop at intermediate stations, such ea Tokomaru, Ohau, Manakau, Te Horo, etc.; but there are some which do not. Residents should acquaint themselves with the trains which do stop at their particular stations

As previously mentioned, there are several wayside stations at which one or more of the above trains will stop whenever passengers desire to be set down or taken up. Local residents may ascertain which are the trains which cater for their towns, and may then work out, from the above figures, the time which the train will take to travel from the station immediately preceding. The Auckland express reaches Palrnersixm, from the North, at 12.40 p.m. and arrives at Thoradcm at 4.7 p.m. The Auckland express leaves Thorndon at 12.15 p.m. and reaches Palmerston at 8.35 p.m. bump" «—"««ijEagaaiMg
