Swift, comfortable, reliable travel by rail is no news. Even the vast forces of Nature seldom ruffle the smooth flow of passen. gers and freight.

These virtues are no accident. For under the wheels of your speeding train and along the right-of-way that rushes silently past your window, the Illinois Central last year spent $100,000 every 24 hours for up-keep of rails and ties and signals, bridges and build. ings and ballast, and many other items that stand. still that the trains may move swiftly and safely,

The Illinois Central, and other railroads, pay their own highway up-keep and for all other facilities, besides, and till contribute their full share of taxes that keep governments, both state and
