CANADA will snake a large exhibit at the
Pads Exposition and preparations are
now befog oompieted for the same, This
Dominion has a wealth of preclude that
would be well worthy of a plaoe in the
7xlloeition but as the space allot:ad is
limited a curtailment is necessary.
Tants is u. shortage of rentable lameea
in Toronto owing to a large number of
them being out of repair. Temente, we
guess, are 'bunt the seine iu the Qaeen

own and henoe every move means a fresh
outlay beforee new tenant is settled.
$5,000,000 le shown asa surplus for the
past financial year in the Dominion of
Canada. The expenditure has grown by
about $3,000,000, and the debt baa been
in0reased by $1,770,000, Thiele 0enada'e
growing time and necessary expenditures
must be made but if for eaob dollar ex-
pended $10 comes book it is a good in-
vestment. The Poetoftioe Department is
$3,350,545 shy owing to the redaotion in
postage rate but the deficienoy will be
made up in the coarse of a few years. No
one will say that the reduction was not a
proper move.
GODERICH TO GUELPH,
PL ICES VISITED BY ALD. P11O1P
ON ICS RETURN TRIP.
The following ie the closing letter of
Alderman Tborp,of Guelph, on hie trip
Along the section of oonntry between
Guelph and Goderioh. He drove to
Goderich by the Southern route and re-
turned by way of the North. The letter
ie of interest to all who have au eye on
increased railway facilities
to my last letter I confined myself to
Goderich and surroundings. In this, my
final letter, I will deal with the Northern
route from Goderich to Guelph.
Leaving Goderich, wo eroes a high and
very long bridge over the hfaillaud river
and enter Saltford, It is a small village of
about 200 population, with one suit well.
The village le practically a suburb of
Goderich, and, on a bluff above the village,
there are a number of very handsome resi-
deooes winch command a splendid view of
the harbor and lake beyond.,
We next pass through the two email vil-
lages of Dunlop and Darlow, and enter Au-
burn, or Manchester as itis sometimes call-
ed. The land from Goderich to this point is
quite rolling, but is one of the finest sections
of forming country that 'have ever driven
through, and shave driven through Ontario
from Montreal to Windsor ana North Bay
to Wager n Falls. The grope axe simply im-
meaee. Eerything, with the exception of
wheat, baa been particularly good. Even
the apple crop is fairly good. They also
grow peaches and ]'ears. The apple buyers
had already been through there and bought
up all the orchards, They paid from 01.50
to a2 per barrrel for Winter stook. Ae Ioame
.East the orchards were smaller and the crop
was also less. Manchester has a aopnlabinu
of 900 and is quite a thrifty place. The
people are very keen for the railroad.

thriving Mildness Here I had the pleasure
of being shown all through the Coleman
salt works. They do quite an extensive
business with their well here, 1un2ing both
a day and a night gang, The way the salt
is produced is quite simple, They pump up
the salt water brine into a large axon pan,
about80x00 feet square, which stands about
twelve feet high, with furnaces underneath,
When the salt accumulates on the bottom
of the pan, they hoe it out on to a platform
about ton feet wide, which eurrounde the
pen on all sides, and when the salt hoe be-
come fairly dry, they shovel it off a platform
into bins, where it is again allowed to dry
before barrelling. The table salt undergoes
a special proce0s of drying in a separate
building before it is bogged and sewed up
by girls, who look quite neat 1 g u es and tidy s.

On the Rideau Callas,
DEAn Por AND POST RrAoogus,--
Those who know where Westport
is on the Upper Rideau Lake, can, 1n
fancy, come on board the "James Swift"
steamer, and the uninitiated, who like
Pat, "Never hird of the place," oan catch
on later. This boat runs from
Kingston
to Ottawa through probably the grandest
natural and artificial waterwaof the
world, and among scenery the moot pin.
turesque. In what other land has Nature
hung out such pictures as the Falls of
Niagara, the St. Lawrence among the
Thousand Islands or that inimitable map
of the Rideau. For excitement, life and
grandeur on the largest scale go among
The Thousand Islands," but for quiet,
rest and time to think of poetry go to the
Rideau. For time to review a past life
and think of home, camp by one of the
innumerable camping grounds of the
Rideau. home is where "the crimson
thread of kinship" is warmest and where
the heart most fondly turns—so as I
follow the Betting sun across the plains of
the West, I see you all in the calm and
the sunshine of everyday life, contented
and happy. As I return to the banks of
the Rideau I see obhet conditions of life
among a people, in many respects, twenty.
five years behind the times. The farming
is naturally, like the ohoeblack's pants,
"verypatchy" and irregular
fshape.
The roads run every way nd it is ot
hard to get lost. In one day I saw four
threshing machines going, all with the old
fashioned horse -power. It is a great
dairying country, but where there ie any
ahurninq to do you will see a bare legged
boy or girl at the old perpendicular dash,
or the dog round the corner doing pen-
ance. Drilling for water ie mostly done
by horses on the old tread mill, and log
houses or hate are more common than
any other.
The people think longer before they
speak than in the West—that is those
who think at all, They are the more
swarthy in color and it sometimes is bard
to tell, when they look at you, Whether
the mouth aids in Seeing or not, it being
the most open, Still, though theft waye
are not a5 011r ways, they too aro con-
tented and happy, and "get there just the
Frame." When one base the diversity
across the stages of life, the words of
Adam Lindsay Gordon seem more true,
viz,: --
"Life is mostly froth and bubble,
Two things stand like stone—
Kindetess in another's troubles,
Courage in your own,"
