Travel by the Allan Line.

The season being now at hand when
there is but little apprepension of
rough and stormy weather at sea,
those intending to make an ocean voy-
age or desirous of sending for friends
abroad should make the necessa.
~ arrangement to secure passage.
BY means Of modern appliances for the
comfort Of passengers, transatlantic
travel has been rendered SO safe that
to-day it is really less dangerous to
GROSS from Baltimore to Liverpool, in
one of the swift staunch steamships Of
the Allan Line, than to make trip
from New York to San Francisco by
rail. In fact, in q fine Ocean steam
er OF the present day, the dangers
Of the sea are reduced to q minimum
by The exercise Of constant vigilance
anl enforcement Of tho strictest disci-
pline on the part Of careful officers,
all of whom are required to possess the
most extensive experience in their
vocation, and all who have ever
made a voyage in one of the Allan
steamers will admit that in these par
ticulars they rank second to none
crossing the Atlantic.
The captains Of these steamers have
all service, and are assisted by officers
