— .—f THE LOCAL TDIE TABLE. Sarching through a railway timetable makes most people irritable. The railway table, like the 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 botch potch of figures concerning the branch line of Toko, the side I rack at Waggonvillo, or the cross line to Novermarch. The particular figures likely io be of benefit to dwellers between Paekakaiiki and Palnierston North are what leaders of The llorowhenua Chronicle need most, and for our readers' convenience those figures are now appended :—

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 aseer- t fain 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 reuuhes Pafmerston from the North, at 12.40 p.m., and arrives at Thorndon at 4.7 p.m. The Auckland express leaves Thermion at 12.15 p.m. ami reaches Palmci'Bton at '■j.'Vo p.m. The extra Auckland express commenced Ist October.
