The Only Line That Gets There.

It has been we'll said by a distin-
guished writer that "the Michigan
Central is the only .Niagara Falls
Route in the country"
1t is the only railroad that runs direct
ly by the falls and stops it's trains ut "a
point from which all parts of the falls
and the rapids are in full view: From
this point, called Falls View, the scene
from the Michigan. Central; train,
whether in its summer setting of emer-
aid or its winter setting of crystal, is
one Of unexampled grandeur and sub
Unity. AS it is on the direct route
to New York, Boston, ana New Eng
land, no east bound traveller should fail
. to take advantage of it.
