THE TAXICAB.

ITS CONVENIENCE —ITS COMFORT—ITS GOST. Till,- taxi-cub is now displacing all other methods of locomotion iu the great centres of population. Its popularity is unprecedented. The taxi-cab is now in Wanganui, Telephone to 533 will bring it to your door in a few minutes, or it may be found at its stand just outside Hie Rutland Hotel. It is tiie speediest, quietest, and most comfortable mode of locomotion and it is not expensive. By the hour the charge' is 12/6. But for running short journeys about town, the charges are the same as the ordinary cab-fares up to seven o’clock. After seven double rates are charged. The touring charges are especially attractive. Tho rate is only 1/- per mile, lor four persons or less, and 5/per hour waiting time, so ,that for a “round” trip through the suburbs and out into the. country for four persons would cost them only 3fi. per mile per passenger. It is tJie ideal afternoon’s outing. For “touring” engagements after 7 pm. there will he a minimum charge of £l.

Remember Telephone 533, or on the stand near tho Rutland Hotel,'
