The question which to day most forcibly
presents itself to the prospective traveller Is
not "By what line can / earliest reach my
destination 81 (for running parallel with each
other, the competing lines make the same
average time between their Western and
Eastern tcrminD but "By which route can j
travel with the grestest degree of comfort and
Of freedom from those annoyances hitherto
considered inseparable from journey OF
thousand miles or more?"
The inquiry is easily answered. Seated in
one of the spacious and luxuriously finished
Drawing-room coaches peculiar to the broad
gnage Erie Railway, running without change
from Cincinnati, Cleveland, Dunkirk, Buffalo
and Rochester to New York, the traveller finds
ences of his own bone. Roomy seats, neat
Washing and Dressing rooms, parlors wcn
ventilated and cool in summer warmed by
steam in winter. and illumined by gas when
night cores attentive servants, and view
of the grandes Of American scenery, com.
bine to transform the formerly slow and to-
dious Journey into an enhancing panorama,
quickly to the beholder. At the Company's
hotels along the line, the traveller alights to
refresh the inner man-eating breaktast in
Ohio, dinner in Pennsylvania, supper in New
York, yet faring surnptuously and with the
same regularity as fiat his own hotel or resi-
dence at home h9NsA
Sleeping coaches well lit and ventilated,
and with clean, roomy beds, and all the con-
veniences Of the boudoir are attached toeacb
of the three daily Express trains, guarantee
ing the traveller, delighted with the novelties
OF the daylight, rights rest as untroubIed
as If in his own bed at home.
Prompt arrivals are made at all connecting
points, and passengers on arriving in New
York are delivered either down town in the
business center of the city, or up town in the
immediate vicenity of the leading hotels and
the New York and New Havcr Railroad
1lckets via this popular route can be puT-
chased at all Principal Ticket Offices through

A pine tree, twenty feet in height and ten
inches in diameter at the base has grown up
on the solid rock in Beverly, Mass, and, as it
grew unable to obtain moisture and support
from the rock or to penetrate it's surfaces, sent
out its roots for supplies. These travelled
twenty or more feet over rocky ledge I'M
til they reached a swamp, and from thence
the tree has been built up The roots, where
they run over the ledge, are three or four in

of the rick, SO that they can scarcely be dis
