Reserved Train Seats and Sleeping Berths

HE Railway Department recently announced that arrangements had been made to enable passengers to reserve seats on principal mail and express trains between stopping places, irrespective of distance. In order to provide still further for the convenience of intending travellers who may: desire to reserve seats or sleeping berths, but who are unable to make personal application, the Department has arranged that bona fide re-

quests by letter, telephone or messenger, will en gre accommodations being held. Those who avail themselves of this privilege should confirm the reservation in the usual way later. During holiday or rush periods, it is particularly desirable for the smooth working of the system.that reservations be confirmed in reasonable time before the departure of trains. It is only by passengers in general doing this that congestion will be. avoided.
