Traveller (waiting for train already twenty minutes late). "Porter, when do you expect that train to come in?"

Porter. "Can't say, sir. But the longer you waits for it, the more sure 'tis to come in the next minute."


"THE NURSERY SALOON ON THE RAILWAY"

Our Artist's Notion of what we may expect if the Suggestion were Adopted

The saloon is fitted with refreshment bar, replete with all baby delicacies. Patent swing sleeping cradles
can be secured
by wire or letter.
Rattles can be obtained at most
of the large stations.
Efficient nurse guards, to look after the babies, travel by all trains. The saloon is fitted with amusing toys, to beguile the tedium of long journeys.
