ADVANTAGES OF A RESIDENCE ON THIS ROUTE.
Somerville, Medford, Malden, Melrose, South Reading, and Reading, towns within the range of the special, as well as the longer trains, possess many advantages for country residences, either through the warm season or the whole year, not exceeded by those of any other towns in the vicinity of Boston. The cheapness of the fare, the number of trains, both early and late, in connection with the convenient depot at Boston, render this railroad a desirable channel of intercourse between the city and country. That the advantages of these places are appreciated, is evident from the increasing demand for residences on this route, the demand for house lots, and the steady rise in the value of the land.
