The Wingham Advance -Times, August Gourmet food in Que by Claude R. Lemieux If you plan to forget your diet, at least temporarily, why not do it where such au act of defiance can be a real gastronomical de- light? At La Sapiniere, at Val David in Quebec's Laurentians, for instance. Located in an idyllic mountain setting 80 kilometres 09 miles) north of Montreal, this Lauren- tian resort hotel has charmed gourmets since 1936. dowing a stay, no matter short, at La Sapiniere, you'll abree with French writer Montesquieu that fine food is an excellent antidote against melan- choly. La Sapiniere is an ideal place to relax in the convivial company of other guests who have chosen this hospitable inn for its cordiality, its comfort and especially its fine food. You feel La Sapiniere's warmth the moment you enter the grounds and notice the handsome stone and log building nest- lingcosily among tall ever greens. , When you approach the desk to register, you are made to feel more a .guest than a client. The 70 well-appointedrooms have all the Modern conven- iences of any large city hotel', This all -season resort offers a heated swimming pool, tennis, putting green and, canoes in summer while winter' visitors may enjoy skiing, snowshoeing, skating or sleigh rides. Many visitors prefer the so- called off-seasons. In the fall, the whole countryside is ablaze with color, while in the spring, it's the awakening of nature that is the added attraction. There's horseback riding, golf, hiking and an indoor pool nearby while La Sapiniere has its own playroom with ping pong, billiards and other games. Just plain relaxing, however, is high on the list of "activities" at the popular mountain retreat.

The Able Criminal works in the shadowy areas of international law, the ' unlegislated no -man's lands where fields of fire are measured only by looking through loop -holes. One such sophisticated Wheeler-dealer is Paul Firman, and the obsessive Professor Krom is determined — with his fellow criminologists Geroge Connell and Geraldine Henson on hand as `witnesses' — to expose him. Neither Firman nor Krom bargained for the, horrendous outcome of their en- counter.

COMA by Robin Cook 'The surgery was routine, the kind performed many times a day at Boston's greatest hospital, and the teams that worked in OR No. 8 were among the best in their field; but even their 'skills fell useless as something terrify- ing began to happen. Certain patients never regained con- sciousness: first Nancy Greenly and then Sean Berman, and a dozen others, all admitted to Memorial Hospital for minor surgery. All were victims of the same inexplicable, hideous acci- dent on the operating table — their brains had been destroyed. Coma is the spine -chilling shocker about a crime beyond imagining and the young woman medical student who 'commits herself to solving it. -... . 1 a a t h C c m S evergreen or the eaerdi a rbap tackle.

The names may sound fanoiliar on La Sapinieress menu but it's in the savoring of Chef Marcel Kretz's succulent dishes that the elegant dining room reallycomes through as a truly special place: Twice a day, at La Sapiniere, you can start your meal with something like an artichoke, vinaigrette or a quiche suisse, follow this with a chilled vichys.. soise or a potage petite marmite and you're ready for the piece doe -- resistance. It could be roasted, boned and stuffed rack of Canadian lamb au jus or a civet of rabbit with mush- rooms, or a braised duckling with olives, all served with fresh vegetables.
