tents at this season of the year was a.

with the I. C. R. the day we left Mon-

of us did spend an hour over a. meal,
while others were waiting. To give

with an excellent roadbed, and tra-
verses the longest stretch ot varied
and beautiful scenery to be found on

Rocky Mountains, and attracts tourists
every year from all parts of the •world.
Starting from Montreal the I, C. R.
crosses over the river St. Lawrence on
the Victoria Jubilee Bridge, which
was opened in 1897. We passed
through the beautiful country east of
the Eastern Metropolis, and took the
shortest and most direct route to
Quebec, passing through a country .al-
most exclusively agricultural. Our
first afternoon was spent principally
in getting acquainted. We were pre-
sented with boquets by Mr. Archi-
bald, Supt. of the dining car service,
and souvenir fans by the President of
the C. P. A., Mr. Macdonald, of
Alexandria. after partaking of dinner
we were all unanimous in our praise of
the dining service, and along our trip
we found it to surpass that of the
leading hotels in the several cities
which we visited. On reaching Quebec
we did not stop there as we were on
the south side of the river,at Levis,but
being directly opposite the ancient
capital we got a good view of it, and
further down we view the Montmor-
ency Falls. For the next 200 miles
after leaving Levis, we pass through a
purely French Canadian country,
where the inhabitants live tranquil
and moral lives, and are filled with an
abiding love for their language and a
or druggist will tell you that .nathing profound veneration for:their religion,
equals it ic'r Catarrh and all other the Parish church being in evidence
with every cluster r of houses, and un-
like our Western • towns, where the
rural churches is for the most part a
small edifice compared with the finer
farm buildings, here we found the
church to be by far the most imposing.
While here and there could be seen the
shrine of some patron saint clearly de-
fined against the setting sun.
We pass through Rivieve du Loup,
where the sportsman has a field only
limited by his time and inclination to
shoot and, fish. Six miles further
down is Cacouna, where by an easy
drive of three miles over a smooth
highway, Cacouna Beach, the famous
watering place of the Lower St. Law-
rence, is reached, where may be enjoy-
ed the fullest luxury of sea bathing.

Uppers all gone."
" Now, here are the uppers
of these shoes all gone to
pieces. The soles are as good
a ever, apparently. They
ought to be, because I've only
worn them a few weeks, But
1 wonder why the uppers broke
out so badly."
The reason why the uppers
of some shoes wear out quickly
is that the soles are made so
stiff they pull the uppers all, to
pieces.
When you wear "Sovereign"
shoes you get the Flexi-
ble Welt sole that tvears
as long as the upper and
does s not pull your shoe
