To Austria.

Circuit tour tickets covering the
railroad trip to the Pacific Coast and
via the various Pacific steamship
lines to the far East, are each day
becoming a feature of greater popu-
larity to the travelling public. The
Chicago and Northwestern Ry. have
recently announced the sale of ticket
of this character to Sidney, Australia
and return, in connection with their
Overland Service to the Coast, tick
cts being good returning via the Roy
al Mail Line to Vancouver or via the
Oceanic S. S. Co.'S Line, the direct
route to San Francisco.
These circuit tour tickets are sold
at very low rates. The trans-Pacific
service has grown and improved very
rapidly in recent years and tourists
find the trip filed with scenes of pic
turesque interest not equaled in the
old journeys made by tourists through
England and on the continent.
The trans-continental train service
and the trans-Pacific steamship ser.
vice are of the highest possible char
acter and the time required for max
ing these journeys is much less thar
ever before.
