The Brussels Post, 1900-11-8, Page 4TR -Si BRUSSELS POST Nov, $ .1:000 THURSDAY, NOV. 6, 1900, Din you loan your vete on Wodnoeday? Whether you did or didn't let us all settle down now and buokle into our individual parte in making this great Dominion What it is destined to be—a land of peace, plenty and power, • T1I0 Chineee question le about as prob. leinatie as ever and uoleee the Powers work a good deal more than they have done on the "give and take" principle the aaletion ie a difficult one. : We are not gnawing very meoh when we say that the Chriebian religion with ite aocompalei• menta would do more to lift China than anything etas in the wide world. One of the chief b trxler8 to pea0eful and pro. greaeive tintee in the Mongolian Empire is the selfieboese and want of eoufidenoe among the nations represented there at the present time coupled with the un. stable and unprogressive ways of John Chinaman. With the teeming popula- tion the future looks none too bright unless doors are opened to admit 20111 century ad tenement. IN the reairement of B. S. Cook, a well known gentleman of Fordwiob, from the office of Co. Connoillor, Huron County will loge the counsel and aseietance of one ` who bag put in a long and useful term of office. Mr. Gook is a man of peace, yet nan fire np and hurl hot shot when he is assailed or his rights men- aced and his influence was for good in the Oo, Parliament whether as a private member or filling the Warden's chair, and in hie withdrawal he will carry with him the good fellowship of past and present members of the Council, We have not the slightest doubt that Mr. Gook will continue to feel a lively inter - eat in all that pertains to Mason Go. and will not be Blow to accord praise or ex. press hie disapproval of legislation pave. ed. Tam welcome to the.soldier boye return. ed and retnrniog from Africa hae been as wholeeouled and sincere as the send-off when the contingent, left the land of the M tele to fight for freedom and jestioe. What a wonderful change one short year makes in the history of a nation. Can- ada has a broader and riper experience of the greatness of the Britieh Empire now than ever and this Dominion stands before the world as it never did before for fidelity to the )bIotherland, bravery in the fleece onslaughts of battle as they stood eide by side with the flower of the British army and did themselves credit along with the veterans of many hard mediate. In not a few Canadian homes the return of the soldiers will open afresh sad eoeoes and the lonely grave in South Africa will be made more real than ever. War ie a cruel monster yet we believe in almost every instance in eonnention with the history of onr beloved Empire the oo, fliote have been engaged in only when the dove of peaoe refaced to settle down on the scene and when Britain's power had to be xemplified in the best interests of all concerned, India, Egypt and Saab Africa are illustrations whose history hag and will prove the benefio- ieoae of British Sovereignty. Our boys are welcome back and we are justly proud of them. grawth' but must have a solftl feandatien. if the structure 10 going to be perluanent,.

" Tim Pose would be glad to hear briefly from othere along this line as the above ie eimply intended to be suggestive and may be amplified to suit the circum. stances. How are yon going to spend the long evenings of the coming Winter ? Thie ie a question that should be carefully con• eidered because upon it hinges a large store of interesting and profitable inform. ation or the idle passing away of menthe that will never return. A. program of good reading should be marked tent in which the whole family cirole might take a hand, tVith booke, papers, magazines, Public Lilaariee, Sabbath School, ohurob and Sooi"ty literature at hand there e honld be no difficulty in finding the Eaoeeeary materiel. Take for instance an evening or two with the poets ; the great generale ; notable discoverers ; missionaries ; rulers, dao., what a fond of intereetins: information ie at onr disposal. Then thr re might be a review of map geography, taking a glanoe over South Africa, China, the Philippioee, the Tonkon and other sections of the globe o o08pyleg a large plaoe in the public, eye. Many an Interesting hone could be spent in a musical and literary program to which a few invited neighbors could be added and a taste for the refining influ• enoe of vocal Bed ioetramental mneio or literary pursuits acquired or developed. Along this "tame line of improvement would come an occasional spoiling match among the members of the household or some email reward for the best sample of penmanship in letter or composition, while not a email measure of good might k0000ein the preparation of mere ors ✓ arious departments of farm life, nob as the dairy, stook and so on or on live questions, of the day either at home or abroad.. A weekly study by the family of the next Sabbath's Sunday eohool Leeson or the topic of the Young Peoples' Society would perchance leave impose- siring more abiding than this world.

Home of Refuge has no Lees than 86 inmatee at the present time and the enlargement of the building now con. frocte the members of the Go. Council, Whatever little opposition to a publio institution of this kind existed hae long since passed away and we are not ear• prised that instead of compulsion being used not a few elderly people have urged their claim for admittance to the com- fort and oare to be found there. The Clinton people, and others as well, give considerable attention to many little courtesies that go to brighten np the lives of the many aged or unfortunate who have found their way to the Reneeof Refuge, It is a well managed inetitq- tion and the only wonder is that it was not built years before it was. A VISiT TO LOON LOMOND. The following interesting amount ie given TEE Pon by Mies Jennie McNair, of Cranbrook, of a day's jaunt in Soot. land in connection with her eojouro there a short time ago : Perhaps one of the moat interesting of the many tripe I have had was the Bail down Loch Lomond and the ascent of the Ben, a loch and mountain famous in song and story. There were eight of us altogether and we formed a jolly party. We left Balloch Pier in the "Princess May" at 9 a. w. one beautiful September morning. There was a fine stirring breeze and the ',Princess May" glided smoothly over the glittering, edvery water past the many interesting and pretty scenes in the earroundioge. Oo both sides of the looh finely wooded hille stretched towards a blue and cloudless sky, Along the ehoree are numerous mansions nestling in their well kept grounde at the base of the hills or in the openings of the valleys, but the loch itself realms a good deal of our attention. Thirty ielande, varying in eine, are scattered on the wartime of the lower part of the loch, some of them being of considerable height and most of them finely wooded ; these loom a rich variety of picturesque eoenery. On some of the larger islands deer may be seen running out and in amongst the trees and there an antique ruin amongst the rocks re. minds us the bygone ages. The hills here have net the true Highland aspect however, they are not wild and rugged enough. Their appearance is pastoral and valleys smiling everywhere in the sunshine, present scenes of calm and quiet beauty. Nearing the North end of the loch we find the eoenery vasty different as the hills now acquired more of the stern, majestic, beauty of the Highlands. The loch here narrows to the appearance of a rivet winding amidst bold and ragged mountains whioh in some places seem about to oloee over it. The hills rise to a greater height, pre. senting a bare and wild outline. The valleys are deep and narrow and their sides are everywhere marked by the rough and rugged bade of mountain tor. rente. The looh ie varied everywhere by great stretches of land, enclosing bele which in themselves are lakes. There are several piers of the loch, Luse being the most important one. It le prettily situated at the foot of beautiful hille, green as emerald, and is quite a fashion- able plane. Looh Lomond was at one time famed for three wonders—waves without wind, fish without fine, and a floating island. These enppoeibiooe have since been ex. plained away as follows:—"The waves without wind" are caused by Budden overwhelming storms sweeping np the numerous valleys. Thie sometimes menses serious damage and lose of life. Boats are unexpectedly upeet and their crews once in the water seldom are seen again, The bottom of the loch, where it has one, is full of crevices and great long shelves and when bodies are washed into these it is quite impossible to extricate them. "Fish without floe" are supposed to be weterenakee which are sometimes seen swimming from island to inland. Ae for the floating island" some of them mamma so many different forme as seen loom different paints of view that they seem to be floating. Wbea we bad admired the loch eufi4. oiends, from the "Princeas May" we got off at Rowardannan at the foot of the famous Ben Lomond, It was a beauti. fol clear, oold day and promised us a splendid outing. At Rowardaooan Hotel we obtained alpenetooke and then we turned our faces merrily toward the grand old mountain. First the ascension wee easy and we all felt quite happy ; true, there bad been heavy rain the night before, and the ground was moist and slippery, but that was only part of the fun, but in a abort time we began to climb in earnest and the heat, which hitherto had been quite moderate, now began to increase deoidediy. We had taken onr waterpoofe with ne (for the Scottish climate Is treacherous) and now they grew alarmingly heavy. What a time we had, jumping stream, wading through marshy grated, climbing rake. Away behind as was the long peaoeful stealh.of water with its fairy like, tree- oled islands ; in front of us the maleetio and forbidding guardian of the laab— t Ben Lomond. The morning mist had cleared off the WQetltain paaileand the sen shone bravely out an the frowning moantains.and on the little ielande in the lakes a6 they lay Ae quietly ee spots of airy, Among the eveniug Moeda." To come beak to the earth, however, we were meanwhile wading knee deep 1u heather, whine and all Berta of ebrub• r b w 'ch 't v as elf It be y, throng bl t t lieu Go pae0. Away up on the brow of the hill something was gleaming white. Oo ask- ing what it was, I was told that it was "quartz," a white rook whioll 10 very plentiful at the top of the Ben, The keep our guides io eight. Our alpen. Pe, now dieeppeared end we had to etooke were not 01 mob uee going np, though we found them invaluable on Otto downward journey. Al we aeoeoded the air grew so sweet and pare that we all became dreadfully hungry, so hungry that we couldn't wait till we had climbed the right shoulder of the Ben ars bad been previously arranged, so we just eat down and emptied the luncheon bags as quickly as poesible, How good our luneb was. We finished our lemonade and filled the bottles at the loveliest little spring of water you ever saw, and we emptied them and filled them again and again. How sweet and pure it was, I Dever tasted such lovely water. The partyagreed that We must be moving and up we got with a sigh. Our horizon had now widened aooslderably and we could see over the tope of many of the =rounding hills, some of which had curious little mountain looby like silver caps on their summits. Down on the loch we oould see the pleasure boats slid• ing along merrily. Sheep were nibbling the grass at our feet, but Pin afraid they were very poor specimens. Refreshed by our Iucoh we once more oommenoed our journey. I thought we were never going to get up that hill, but we did, only to Ree a more formidable one still frowning over us. Here and there on the ground we could see the marks of the hoofs of donkeys or "cod• dies" ae they say in Sootland. Thie in• formed us that some poor wretches bad been trying to ride up the mountain, which I guess would be a thousand times woree than walking. We passed several heaps of atones "cairns' as they are palled, and of course we added a atone or two to the piles as we paeeed, Tbeee Nes are mostly composed of fragments of quartz, a beautiful silvery grey stone. Once more before we reached the top we stooped at a little mountain stream and quenched =thirst, and then we made our final effort and gained the summit. Away to the E tet stretched the wind- ing Forth and in the distance Sterling and Ediuburgle appeared. Turning to the right one eeee the Lake of Monteith and Looh Ard and between them the old world town of Aberfoyle. There the greater part of the basin of the Clyde manes into our picture ; on the Western mainland glimmer the old towns of Ayr and Renfrew, while almost indistinguish- able in the distance, the North of Ireland 1e shadowed out, bat the scenery North of Ben Lomond ie by far the most im- pressive, mountain rises over mountain ; hill over hill ; gorges sink to a seeming, 1y fathom:eee depth. Ben Cruaohaw and Ben Vuirliob rise victorious over "Craigs, knolls and mountains confused- ly hurled, The fragments of an earlier world, And mountains that like gieote etaud, To sentinel enchanted land." and away in the far distance towers the king of Scottish mountains—Ben Nevis. An awe inspiring scene it is, such poor little creatures we feel amongst those wonderful monuments of the ages, bat a nearer terror aeizee es. Right in front of ne just as if part of the mountain bad been torn off, yawns a terrible precipice 2000 feet deep. It is too dreadful to look at and eick and shuddering we torn our backs on the dreadful North. Then what a contrast we find in the lochs. What a softening effect those stretches of water have on their rugged and wild surrounding!. They look indeed like roughly set diamonds. Around ns far down in sweet disorder they gleam : Loeb Lomond, the Fairy Loeb ; Lombe Long and Aohray, and hundreds of beautiful little glimmering sheets of water. And now from the mountain tope we mould see numberless little mountain lochs. I.8 was so strange to see them there, hundreds of feet above the level of Looh Lomond. We eat there a long time resting and looking at our surroundings. The mountain tope in sone parte present a very curious out- line. Sometimes I fanoied I could see a huge profile of a human fade. Presently we selected a suitable spot, overlooking the plains of the Lothians and the wind• ing river Forth, and epread out what we bad left of our lunch. This soon was finiehed and our laborious and painful descent began. Never far a moment, however, did we regret our day's outing though it is six long miles to the top of the Ben, and there are blistered toes for acme days after but I, at least, will never forget the grandeur of the Soottieh moan• thine and the queenly beauty of the Scottish lakes. A FEW NOTES ABOUT CALGARY, In conversation with Jae. Ballantyne, who returned from Calgary recently THE Poet gleaned the following interest- ing pointers :—Calgary hae a population of about 6,000 people and is making good progreee, having added about 2,000 to iia inhabitants in the peat 8 years. The oountry aronod it ie largely devoted to ranching, altbongh ante, rye, barley and a little wheat are grown and tike year turned ant very well owing to the rain showers which are often lacking. Rye le anally ont for green feed. There are two linea of railway, the 0. P, R. and the Calgary and Edmonton Branch whose junction ie at Calgary. The 0. P. R. ebope employ a good num• her of hands and the other employing agencies are the abbatoir and the brew. ery. Considerable building le being done and some 8 storey stone btildinge erected on Main street, the atone being pro. cured from a quarry near by. Living comes high and rents range from $10 to $60 per month for houses.

People at the Fair who visited the Art Gallery and admired the paintiuge also took time to ipepeet theviews of Canadian eoenery,which was most artistically ar- ranged on the stairway 'ending to the first gallery on the South side of the main build- ing. The most attractive display wee made by the Grand Trunk Railway system and iu every case i)lustrated eoenee alo ug the route of that popular route for tourists and travellers. Strangers who viol led the Ex- hibition had in a few mtmoute unfolded to their astonished gaze a aeries of actual photographs typical of the varied and de ligbtful ;memory in Canada iron the bab- bling brooks and trout streams, to the wild, rugged, yet majestic beauty of Muskoka. The very name Muskoka is so well known, even to peeple who have never sot foot in the territory, that it at once brings up vieiooe of an ideal Summer resort, and fish- ing exouraions that rival the moot noted Enropeon resorts. T10 scenes of beauty. spots in Muskoka, Lake of Bays district, and around ]iawartba lakes were simply fascinating, and suggested a country almost. Utopian for the sportsman or the lover of nature. The views taken along the coast of Maine and in the Bacteria States were also worthy of ..note, What probably appealed most strongly to the tourist were the soap. shote of the "Highlands of Ontario," de- picting pretty Summer homee, facing streams that the angler at once prononnoed the home of speckled beauties • placid watere, on the slim ee 0f which comfortable looking Bummer cottages are Ionated ideal places to spend the hot Summer months. One of the most etriklag views in the col- lection was one of the celebrated Shadow river, the shadow 01 the canoe and its thou - pants beteg reflected in the smooth watere co perfectly that it ie really difficult to de- tect the difference between the shadow and the river. The arrival of the steamer at Muskoka wharf is very realistic, andmore eloquent in proolaiming the attractive 18etnres of this Summer resort than col- umna of literature. The wharf is peeked with a holiday erowd, while stretched along the wharf are the carcasses of a couple of eoore of deer, which have been brought down by the huuter'a deadly rifle. There aro many other bunting scenes, all true to life for they are actual photographs and the camera does not lie as a general;rule. Fisherman's look in Muskoka ie different from what is generally conveyed by the term, as the photographs of a number of eplenpld catches amply testify, In fact, life io Muekoka, a story without words, could he read by any pereon who could see. Some of the vi ewe of the Sawartba lakes district was a revelatien even to Oanndiane, for it le ouly comparatively resent that this romantic dietrlot hae been opened up to tourists, through the Grand Trunk Com- pany's aggreestve policy of exploring our Northern regions, They are located North of Peterborough and Lindsay, and combine scenery, wild and rugged, with here and there alandeoape that might pace for au idealist's dream of Summer land. Some of the soma represented were : "A Likely Spot fur Base,' punning the Rapids of Bel ]truer""View from Buokhorn Falls,' An failed Landimg on Hawartha Lakes," and "A Portage on Eel River." The enap•ahot of the annual regatta on the Sawartha lakes pictures very aptly ono of the popu- lar sports engaged in by visitors. The Monarch end Ills Hord" 8068 probably one of the pictures which came in for the meat general admiration. It portrays a scene, once a comparatively common eight la the wilds of Canada, but only met with in the Highlands of Ontario, the aportaman'e par- adise, The vie Ns are of the very highest type of photographic art, and were obtain- ed at great expense. That they were appreciated was quite evident from the constant throng of visitors which lingered around the exhibit. rr Thankful Mothers.

Many children are troubled with week. kidneys in the form of nocturnal urinat- ing, which is very hard to treat.
