For Railway Passengers Guidance.

THE LOCAL TIME-TABLE. j Searching through a railway time i table makes most people irritable. I'Tlio railway time-table, like th« polony, contains many good things, but 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 of Waggon ville, or the cross line to Nezermareh. The particular fig-irei likely to be of benefit to dweltar# between Paekakariki and Palmovston North are- what readers of -he Horowhenlua Chronicle read m.»t, and for our readers' convenience those figures are now appended.—

j Some of the above trains will stop at intermediate stations, such as ■ Tokoinaru, Ohau, Manakad, I G Horo, etc., but there are <i>ma which do not. Resident* muxta ' acquaint themselves with the trains r which do stop at thoir partis f'&r • stations.

3 As previously mentioned there •re Beveral wayside Btations at ' which one or more of the above trains will stop whenever pas angers desire to be set down or taken ,: P- Local residents may ascertdin which- are the trains which cater 'or 1 their towns, and may then »,ork ' out from the above figur©3, the time • which the train will take to trive'i from the station immediately pre--1 coding.
