Exeter Advocate, 1905-07-13, Page 4/y� ap oriel of m user rumautic advents exctt't~ Advocate, victory nod defeat. Shortly after 10 o'clock Mon evening the party are found wend their way to the C. P. R. depot, where there are in waiting three special new car;. These are models of luxury, elegance and comfort, and had never turned a wheel until sent out by the ('.P.11. for this trip. Arriving at Mile bind early Tuesday morning we breaticfast as guests tif the C.P.R. and then a1 .it their fatuous "Angus Shope," one of the largest and: most thoroughly equipped loco- motive car shop plants in America. These shops are intended to provide t•epairs for the Company's lines east of Winnipeg, including some 450 locomo- tives and to constructnew cats and locomotives for the entire System. The output is about 7000 freight cars and 100 new locomotives annually. The plant is equipped thoroughly with fire protection and the ventilation of these immense shops is perfect. It is done by cuestas of fans, which give a complete change of air in the build- ings once every twenty minutes. The lplot of ground occupied is 4700 feet ong and '2000 feet nide. Over 3500 wen are at present employed and the scene is indeed one of great interest to the person of a mechanical turn of min. After spending a few hours at Mile End we leave for Montreal, and on arrival take up our quarters at the Place Vigor Hotel, another of the C. P. R.'s famous and magnificent struc- tures provided for the travelling public. A few minutes walk !rands us at the City Hall where Mayor Laporte de- livers an address of welcogtea. o which Messrs. McNee. Downey add Young very ably respond. The Mayor then tenders the visitors the freedom of the city. Cabs are furnished, and accom- of its modest church shining in the panied by one of the Aldermen, all go light of the summer sun; or perchance for a drive around the Mountain. we see the pretty little dwellings of After luncheon photographs of the party are taken in front of the Place Vigor and also while on board the Montreal Street Railway's new ob- servation car which had been placed at our service for the afternoon, and which afforded a splendid opportunity of seeing the sights of the grand old city. In the evening the excursionists are invited into the parlor of the hotel when President McNee. on behalf of the members of the association pre- sent Mr. Foster, of the C. P. R., Mr. Chaffee of the R. & 0., and Secretary J. R. Bone, each with an elegant tra- velling hag and a handsome ebony toilet set as tokens of appreciation of their efforts during the outing. These tokens were indeed merited and could not have been bestowed on more worthy recipients. At 9 o'clock Wednesday morning we again take possession of our 'com- fortable cars and land in Ottawa about noon. After taking luncheon at the Russell House the party proceed to the parliament buildings. These are indeed magnificent structures and are the chief glory of Ottawa and the principal objects of interest to strang- ers. Other objects of interest are the Rideau Canal, RoclifTe and Major Hill Parks, the city buildings, the Roman Catholic Cathedral, the Geological Museum, etc. In the afternoon, ac- companied by several of Ottawa's most prominent citizens, a drive around the city reveals the beauty of many driveways, parks, and streets, and a visit to the works of the Eddy Company in 11u11 and also the Expel i- tuental Farm prove of great interest. In the evening the party is invited by Hon. R. T. Sutherland, Speaker of the House of Commons, to his private apartments where a dainty luncheon is served, after which all repair to the Speaker's gallery to listen to the dos- ing debate of the Autonomy Bill, Mr. Bourassa being the principal speaker. At about 11 o'clock the excursionists again occupy the sleepers, and return to the Queen City. all carrying pleas- ant memories of the Press excursion of 1005, the outing being pronounced one of the best in the history of the Association. thanks to those in charge and likewise to the generosity of the R. Sc 0., and the C. P. H. Coto. pan ies. Sanders & Creech, Prop:t. THURSDAY, JULY 13, '05 Outing of the Canadian Press Association. Visit to Quebec, Montreal, Ottawa and other points of Interest. Continuing the sights of the famous city of Quebec we may say that no finer promenade can be found on the continent of America than that of Dufferin Terrace, and the still higher terrace facing the walls of the citadel. The view from this coign of vantage is singularly fascinating. Across the river lies the odd-looking, old-fashion- ed town of Levis, with its precipituous streets and fine fortifications, but hav- ing many a ebnrining view in the back -ground. A little to the east is the beautifully green Island of Or- leans, a favorite resort for those. who, during the summer days, seek a calm and pleasant retreat from the city's heat and glare and dust and weariness. With its shady grove and purling brooks, its gentle undulations. the songs of birds in the trees and the murmur of waters as they leave its beautiful shores—indented with pic- turesque bays—Orleans is a delight- ful spot. Nearer still we see the river St. Charles flowing calmly on its sin- uous course through a vale of wonder- ous fertility and beauty; here and there we catch a glimpse of a quiet village, and see the tin -covered spire ire, I131t1ke da . I P. Douglas has purc`i ased the black - S ing i smith shu and a man has arrived the farmer peeping out from beneath the wide -spreading branches of the leafy maple or the majestic elm. Within easy distance of Quebec there are many places of note which the tourist should see --that is if he has the time to spare; but if not, it will be better for hint to content him- self with leisurely visiting two or three of them rather than rushing over it great number. Hoought, however, take a trip to the Saguenay River, if possible, or Jeune Lorette, a little village, having a beautiful cascade nearby; then there is picturesque Lake St. Joseph, which affords pleasure in abundance. Of Course, no one would think of spend- ing even so short a time as a couple of days at Quebec without visiting the world-renowned shrine of St. Anne de Beaupre, a shrine which has such a reputation as the scene of wonderful works of healing and curing the afflict- ed, that it has drawn, and continues to draw, trillions of devout pilgrims and others from all parts of the con- tinent. We wonder if there is any truth in the account given of these miracles. %Veil, wlien one sees the collections of crutches left there by cripples, who, when they came to the shrine, were unable to walk without their aid, and when one listens to the statements of those whose testimony seems to be of the most unimpeach- able diameter, what can one say? To be sure the sceptic will turn away with scorn and say that such works are absolutely impossible, that they ate contrary to the laws of liatute, and that no miracle has ever been per- formed at St. Anne de Beaupre or any- where, else. But may there not be "morn things in heaven and earth than are dreamed of even in the phil- osophy" of the skeptic? Rev. Father Caron, brother of Sir Adolph P. Caron, received us at the shrine and most courteously gave the party the benefit of his knowledge in an explanation of the hit'resting surroundings. Returning from Heatupre we call at the Duke of Kent blouse and are very pleasantly entertained at luncheon. The surroundings here are vet y beaut• ful, an interesting feature being the collection of Wild aniinais placed thee., by Holt, Refrnew & Co., furriers of Quebec. which include buffalo, moose, deer, bears, heaver, foxes,etc. After several hours of an outing as guests of the Quebec Light & Power Company, we again laud in Quebec, and it few more hours of pleasurable sight-seeing is spent in the quaint old - capital --that ancient and historical City of Quebec. with its majestic mem- ;hers You can depend on Ayer's Hair Vigor to restore color to your gray hair, every time.

Sr No flour in the world is so nourishing, so vitalizing, so rich in all the elements of body, bone and brain building as pure, well-balanced, white flour. Bran in bread is just so much wood fibre—so much extra work for the Stomach—there is no nourishment in it for man. Cattle digest it and get nourishment from it because nature has given them a fermenting plant and double chew- ing facilities. But man masticates once and digests once. For that reason he gets nothing whatever out of anything but the gluten portion of wheat—the inside of the grain—the part which yields "protein.' And he gets more out of Royal Household Flour because more of the branny and waste portions are removed in making it than from any other flour. The Royal Household Mills eliminate more bran and snorts than any other mill—therefore Royal Household Flour is the most nourishing flour in the world.
