SAFETY OF RAILROAD TRAVEL.

Last year on American railroads
only one passenger was killed in ac-
cidents out of every 2,S27,474 pas
senrers a train carried. That is to
say, YOU can take train 1927, 474
times before, on the law of averages,
YOUR turn comes to be killed. You
will have to travel 1908, 963 miles
on the cars before the turn comes
and 4,641,9 45 miles before you are
injured. If you travel 20 miles a
day for 800 days in the year. you can
keep on at it for 75s years before
your turn comes to be hurt. If there
had been railroads when our Savior
was born, and you had begun to trav-
eli on the first day of the year A. D.
l. and had travelled 100 miles in
every day of every month of every
wear since then, you would still have
lin this wear 1889 nearly 100000
miles vet to travel before your turn
came to be killed.-Jacksonville Ola.
