Three Grand Tours to Honolulu.
ipou
Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands, atfout which so much has been written,/ has been aptly termed the "Paradise off the Pacific," and the title is well deserved, for aside from its magnificent sceWry its wonderful volcano, Kilaua, and its interesting inhabitants, its climate is ^inrivaled, and offers a most delightful change to the residence of the eastern and middle states who desire to escapethe rigorB of a northern winter.
The attractions and advantages of these beautiful islands are brought within easy reach by the series of excursions which have been inaugurated by the North Western Line, which leaves Chicago at 6 p. m., January 15, February 10 and March 5, reaching San Francisco on the evening of the third day after departure from Chicago. Steamers of the Oceanic S. S. Company leave San Francisco January 21, February 15 and March l0, and it will be observed, therefore, that those who join these excursions will be afforded ample time to view the many attractions of the principal city of the Pacific coast and its beautiful surroundings.
Excursion tickets, good for nine months will be sold at rate of $225 for the round trip from Chicago to Honolulu and return and this price includes state room and meals on steamers in both directions.
The entire trip from Chicaga to Honolulu is made in only nine days, and these excursions, which are strictly first class in all respects, offer an exceptionally favorable opportunity for visiting these beautiful islands at very reasonable expense.
Detailed information will be furnished upon application to W. B. Eniskern, General Passenger and Ticket Agent Chicago jy North Western R'y, Chicago.
