For Railway Passengers Guidance.

THE LOOAIv TIME TADLJB. Searching through a railway Jamafcacle makes most people irritable. The railway table, like tbe w>lony, contains many good things, but the public prefer to have the oil® particular food (whether mental or alimentary) desired on a given occasion, not a botch potch of flgnrea concerning the branch line of Toko, tho side track at Waggonville. or tho cross line to Neyermarch. lb® particular figures likely to be of benefit to dwellers between Pa©kakariki and Palmerston North are what readers of the Horowhenua Chronicle need most, and for our readers' convenience tbose figure* are now appended:—

gome of the above trains will «top at intermediate stations, such »• Tokomaru, Oh&u, Manak'an, T« Horo, etc.; but there are som« which do not. Residents should acquaint themselves With th« trains which do Gtop at their p&rtlOQiM stations.

As previously thora are several wayside stations at which one or more of the abova trains will stop whenever paasengers desire to bo set down or t&k6H np. 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 reaohea Palinerston, f the North, at 12.40 p.m. and arrives at Tborndon at 4.7 p.m. The Auckland express leaves Thorndon. at 12.15 p.m.and reaches Palmerston at 3.35 p.m.
