Pennsylvania Railroad Bulletin. THE EASE OF TRAVEL TO-DAY. It has just turned a century since the first boat was propelled by steam. There was not a complete locomotive in existence then nor a mile of railroad tract. But the pendnlum of time has swung rapidly forward within the last two generations- The railroad, tbe telegraph, aai the telephone have revolutionized tbe commerce and the industry of the world and have made neighbors of remote people. First of ail in this work of upbuilding, expansion, and development comes the railroad. It is the medium of exchange, the agency of transfer, and wherever it has gone prosperity has followed. The Pennsylvania Railroad has built thousands of miles of track and equipped it with the best rolling stock. It has constructed or absorbed branch lines and consolidated them with its main stem, thus bringing indnstrial and manufacturing interests in direct touch with a'l the centres of trade and affording the people the facilities of travel in all directions. Travel is no longer a dread, it is a pleasure. Comfortable cars by day or night drawn by the best type of locomotives over a roadbed maintained at the highest degree of excellence, elimintte as far as possible the annoyances of travel and mtke it recreative rather than bordenaome Tickets •resold at the lowest rates consistent with good management an l a tJet coalitions moH accommodating to tbe passengerThe schedules of the trains are designed to meet the wishes and requirements of the greatest number of travelers, and the equipment, both as to vehicle* and employes, is kept st the highest state of efficiency. It is the object of the management to encourage travel by making it easy. Interchange i* the life of the social system Travel is a tonic to the tired—the lens of observation to all. The Petiasylvania R tilroad sells tickets goal for s mile as well as for a trip aronnd the world. It will plan a trip for you or provi le the tickets for one of your own selection. It is a fine thing to have a great transportation agency like the Pennsylvania Railroad at yonr command.
