who gave us a very preesing invitation
to accowpan niu to the Hotel taut
e
that to sit on the steps and pick your
teeth at the International would re-
quire from four to ten dollars per day,
we very relactantlY declined to accept
his generous invitation. Among those
however, who were in waiting for the,
beat was Ur. S. Doyle, of theAlliien,
who fermerly kept the Park House in
Goderich, a gentleman with whom we
had the plee..aire of making our stay,
while at the Soo. The Albion is ono
of the °iciest rend best known hotels in
the Plane, ,and although it is not by
any means the largcrit building, yet it,
is one of thebest conducted houses we
have ever stopped at, and certainly re-

any of (JOreaders who should ever
visit that town.
----It would be a difficult matter for us
to tell our readers just what impression
we have formed of the "Soo," but from
what we can learn it has certainly
made wonderful growth .during the
past three or four years, and from a

There is nothing more refreshing to

weather of " dog days" than to hie.
theniaelves away to some pleasant spot
-where „they can escape the turmoil and
drudgery of every day life. In this
eespect we are a favored people; for
our native soil teems 'with many such
4ite
ietreats, rich in their health giving
qualities and affording scenery so
charming and varied that the' eye
never tires to look upon. With the
great advantage of the modern means
of‘travel these "pleasure resorts" can

thought and with the.hope of shaking
off the few remaining fangs of La
Grippe, we resolved to take a trip up
the ,lake as far as the "Soo" and in
company with Mr. G. W. Berry and
family ; and Mrs: D. Hays and
daughter ; rind Mr. and Mrs. W. J.
II-rumpton -and son,. we got on -ITrd
the "Campana" in Kincardine harbor
on Saturday afternoon, the 19th July.
Our party consistedof thirteen, and as
the boat was not proaaled, the obliging
Purser, a Mr. Ronan, soon had us pro-
vided with comfortable sleeping coin-
partnier.ts. The "Ca.mpana" which
was the first iron boat ever brought to
Canada, is considered one of the best
on the hike. -She is 26 feet in length
and was built on the Clyde in Scot-
land, end for some years was used 'as
an ocean steamer. She -is under coin -

half -past two, but as our course was
almost directly north we soh passed

till about six o'clock next morning
that we began to enjoy the scenery,

places, that the towering • rocks • on

as we passed along. Here we' had the,
pletasure. of ' viewing • the famous
"pictured rocks" and the -lonely peak
upon which two mail carriers were
frozen Many years ago, during .a
terrible storm in winter. It is indeed
a bleak and lonely looking spot even
now in the mid.st of summer, with the
green foliage ot the trees and, the
beautiful landscape to the. west, but
what must it have been when the.snow I
was over six 'feet deep and the frosts
fifty below zero, when. these poor fellows
met their untimely death. All through
