of weeks AM and he declares that
the success which attended that trip
makes it a matter beyond all doubt
that the mono -rail system of railways
will in. the not very distant future
revolutionize transportation.
'This great invention," mild Mr.
Anstruthers, "has tar greater signifi-
cance for Canada than any one nere
has any idea of, for not only will it
affect an immense saving in the cot
of transportation, but it will bring
the most inaccessible portions of the
Dominion within easy reach of the
traveler. For instance, I understand
which meant that he had to cover a, that many. parte of, Labrador are im-
mensely rich in roineralsa but that
the development of these rich mineral
areas is absolutely prohibited by lack
of transportation. To build ordinary

by -way on a quiet oigtit, unaware a ridiculous waste of capital that no
one would think of undertaking. With
the mono -rail system, however, the
cost would he insignificant. There
would be no need to grade a track at
all, Jrf_the mono -rail par will run
uphia..1 mid down dale With perfect
east. Ties, tea would be unnecessary.
for there are not two rails to be kept
rigid and absolutely parallel. A sin-
gie rail can be mounted on woen,
tock, iron or concrete blocks, and can
be run througn toreste and ecross
muskegs. Hilly or mountainous
coun-
Iry presents no obstacles at all, ior
the mono -rail ean climb gradients of
one in site and a half. 'The great
cost of bridge building will also be
'done away with, becituseethe gyro-
scope cars can cress rivers if new be
en a steel cable, or light steel lattice.
Then again the ear will take tne
sharpest claves with the greatest
ease,. so, that the lines may be as
wirenng as a river in following the
route or least resistance, and may be
built at any kind of grade. Liars
may also be built of any width. In
fact, Mr. Drennan himself told ate
that railway trains of the future can
be as large as hotels and climb un
the mountain side,. and that they will
take all curves as a Wiled cyclist
does a corner. • As to 'speed, from 150

Canadian Life and Resources. •
Within four hundred miles of James
Bay, which is the eouthern extension
of Hudson Ray, these enterprising
agricultural brothers have establish-
ed themselves most comfortabiy,
though only a few years have passed
since they hewed their way through
away to the north ot the Laurentian

Leaving the city of Quebec behind
ae on a lovely june evening we were
whirlea across the St. Charles River
mut off to the north, climbing height
alter height of the rhountMn range,
that runs almost parallel to the St.
Lawrence Rivet and which takes
its name from it, We reached
an altitude ot• fifteen hundred
feet above the level ot the St.
Lawrence, the sharp curves M the
road almost upsetting one's equili-
brium. Then we began the descent
of twelve hundred feet to the level of
Lake St. John. During the whole of
the railway journey one's eye is con-
stantly attracted by the noble scen-
ery of lakes and hills, hills and lakes,.
innumerable, and always beautiful.
There are few stoppages on the jour-
ney because there are few places at
which to stop. •
The railway, which is called the
Quebec And Lake St. John, is of com-
paratively recent construction,
During the sift:rimer there are two
or three ways of reaching the Monas-
tery at Mistassinti, but we chose to
go by way of Lake St. John. A large
side -wheel steamboat, capable of
carrying several hUndred passengers,
having been put at our pervice, we.
left Roberval the oext morning, soon
after sunrise. After a ride of two
hours across the lake we reached the
mouth of the Peribonka River.
As three of our party. 'consisted of
ladies, we were not at, all sure of our
reception at the monastery. However,
we , drove boldly in and dismounted
in the stable -yard and stood waiting
for deeelopments. it was some time
before any one appeared, the broth-
ers being all at work in the fields,
with the exception of 'those who were
in entire seclusion. Our ,genial
friend, the M.P. for Chicoutimi, who
had gone in search of the brothers,
presently arrived with the Father Su-
perior of the community. A most
striking -looking man he was, unusual-
ly tall with a rather slight and dreop-
ing figure, till dark beard and eyes
that seemed to penetrate one's very
thoughts. The vows of perpetual sil-
ence cannot, of amuse, be bidding ou
the Father Superior. This. one cer-
tainly bad not forgotten how to talk.
French is the language of the major-
ity of the brothers, and necessarily
most of our conversations were car -
tied on in that language. We ladien
were roost cordially welcomed and im-
vited with the gentlemen into the
reception room, two other brOthers,
in. the meantime arriving from the
fields, in their working dress. Clue
, wore a coarse, brown robe, the other
a gown of whitish • woollen stuff,.
looped up around the bottom to form
sort of pockets. • •
These brothers were apparently ab-
solved from the vow of silence during
our visit, and truly, they made the
most of their, liberty. Their tongues
flew and theirlaughter was • both loud
and frequent. The unusual sounds
must have aroused some curiosity in
the chapel, where the poor old blind
retired Father Superior was spending
his last days in prayer and fasting.
The present Superior had only held
the office for about a year, since his
predecessor. became entirely blind.
As one watched the eager, clever
faces of these men, who seldom 'meet
with men of the great, busy world,
one could not but -wonderawh.at were
the various reasons that had led thein
to join their lot with this most aus-
tere. community. Men of action in
the world, they undoubtedly at one
time must have been, now mortify-
ing their bodies for the sins of their
souls. Memento tenni was their only
salutation as they meet and part
from one another during their long
days of toil and fasting. In the work
of the fields and garden, DO word is
spoken, no question asked, except by,
signs. One could hardly Imagine these
intelligent, gentlemanly fellows lash-
ing their bodies with whips every
Friday. As agriculturalists, they are
an immense success, and though
France expelled thorn from her bor-
ders, little more than twenty years
ago, Canada hos apparently received
them with open arrns, as in addition
to this monastery, there is a most
prosperous settlement of them at Oka,
not far frotn 'Montreal, and auother

TORONTO% NEW MAYOR.- -
Reginald Geary Set Out to Be Chief
Executive Many Years Ago.
The success of Aft Geary in the
recent, Toronto mayoralty contest is
the victory of a young men who has
steadily set bie face toward a certain
goal with a eaten confidence that few
Individuate possess, Some years ago
when he first decided to make polities
his protession—and it is worth te.
merobering that politic with the right
man can be a clean, decent, aud
honorable profession—a friend who
had bannsaast—linfter-CanedIC College
with him met him on the street aod
said:
"I re yea' are running for alder,
man.'
"Yes," said Geary.
"Why should a man like you bother
with municipal politics?" said his
friend, who had some disdain for the
average alderman.
"Oh! I like it," said Geary, "And
I'm going to boss the whole job some
day," he added.
The friend went away availing to
himself at the assurance of Young
"Reggie" Geary. That was only about
six years ago, and to -day he Is mayor
of Toronto. If he keeps clear of seri-
ous mistakes—there seems to be no
doubt that he will do so—and pre-
serves his health and strength, he
will be a permanent figure in the
public life of that city and afterward
of the province.
Mr. Geary is not quite $4 young as
be looks, but the attitude of some
people toward him until gaffe recent-
ly recalle a littleconversation that
occurred nearly twenty years ago.
One day in the late autumn, Mr, John
Shaw, M.P.P., then an alderman and
chairman of the executive' committee,
the most powerful post in the council
as formerly constituted, rnek, Mr.
Stewart Lyon, at that. time municipal
reporter of The Toronto Globe. The
scene was the corridor of the old City
Hall on Front street.
Lyon," said Mr. Shaw, "I
see that the young comedian of the
city council is talky:1g of running for
mayor."
"Yes," said Mr. Lyon, "and the,
young • eomedian will probably be
elected!"
"Nonsense," laughed Mr. Shaw, and
went his way. •
*The "young comedian" ran and was
elected. His name was R. .T. Pleat-
ing.As a matter of fact the outcry

THEY ACTUALLY CURE •
RHEUMATISM
Gin Pills Prove it
It is one thing -to claim to cure Rheu-
matism, It is quite another to do it •
Gin Pills bear out every claim we make
, for they are not a "favorite prescription"
or a "marvellous discovery" or a "won-
derful secret preparation." •
They are sunply a common-sense,
scientific combination of medicines that
have proved their value in Rheumatism.
