WABAN is one of the most picturesque of the villages of the City of Newton, situated on the line of the Circuit Road of the Boston & Albany R. R., about 30 minutes ride from Boston. Some of the most desirable lots for building purposes can be obtained on favorable terms and are sold subject to reasonable restrictions This part of Newton is growing rapidly and attracts the 1110st desirable class of residents. A new school house has been built, city water, gas and electric lights have been introduced, which combined with the natural attractions of fine old shade trees, picturesque scenery, healthy location and near proximity to the Charles River, combine to make Waban the most attractive surburban residence near Boston. Its railroad facilities are unsurpass- ed, and being on the circuit, trains going either way carry passengers to Boston at short intervals. The rapid and healthy develop- ment of Waban justifles the intelligent and advanced methods by which its attractions have been brought to the notice of the best people. The Home Improvement Society has done much in furnishing literary, inusical and social entertainments in the new hall recently built .- For terms and particulars apply to FREDERICK H. HENSHAW, Waban, or CHARLES J. PAGE, 82 Devonshire Street, Room 31, Boston.
