She was lying buck amoug the cushions of the divan, and her hat was tbe picture of cruel neglect. For three solid hours she had stubbornly withstood Yetlve'a appeals to remove her bat, Insisting thnt sho could uot trust herself to slay more than a minute or two. "It seems to me, Yetive, that your Jallera must be very Incompetent or they wouldn't have let loose all this trouble upon you," aha complained. "Prince Gabriel Is the very essence of trouble," confessed Yetive plaintively. "He was born to annoy people, just like the evil prince In tint fairy tales." "I wish we bad him over here," the Amerlcau girl answered stoutly. "Ho wouldn't be such a trouble, I'm sure. We don't let small troubles worry us very long, yon know." "But he's dreadfully Important over there, Beverly; that's the difficult part of It," said Yetive solemnly, "i'ou see, be la a condemned murdcror." "Then you ought to hang him or electrocute bim or whatever It is that you do to murderers over there," spoke Beverly promptly. "But, dear, you don't understand. He won't permit us either to bang or to electrocute him, my dear. The situation Is precisely the reverse. If he is correctly quoted by my uncle. When Uncle Caspar sent nn envoy to Inform Dawsbergen respectfully that Grau- stark would hold It personally responsible If Gabriel were not surrendered, Gabriel himself replied, 'Graustark be hanged!'" "How rude of him, especially when your uncle was so courteous about It! He must be a very disagreeable person," announced Miss Calhoun. "I am sure you wouldn't like him." said the princess. "His brother, who has been driven from the throne���and from the capital, in fact���Is quite different. I have not seen him, but my ministers regard him as a splendid young man." "Oh, how I hope ho may go back with his army and annihilate that eld Gabriel!" cried Beverly, frowning Horcoly. **Alas," sighed the princess, "he hasn't au army, and besides ho Is fliid- lug it extremely dilHcult to keep from being annihilated himself. The army bos gone over to Prince Gabriel." "Pooh!" scoffed Miss Calhouu, who was thinking of the enormous armies the United States can produce at a day's notice. "What good is a ridiculous little army like his anyway? A battalion from Fort Thomas could beat it to"- "Don't boast, dear," Interrupted Yetive, with a wan smile. "Dawsbergen has a standing army of 10,000 excellent soldiers. With the war reserves she has twice tbe available forco I can produce." "But your men arc so brave!" cried Beverly, who had heard tbelr praises sung. "True���God bless them!���but you forget that we must attack Gabriel In his own territory. To recapture him means a perilous expedition into tbo mountains of Dawsbergen, and I am sorely afraid. Oh, dear, I hope he'll surrender peaceably!" "And go back to Jail for life?" cried MIbs Cnlhouu. "It's a good deal to expect of bim, dear. I fancy it's much better fun kicking up a rumpus on tbe outside than It is kicking one's toes off against au obdurate stone wall from the Inside. You cau't blame him for iightlug a bit." "No, I suppose not," agreed the princess miserably. "Gren Is actually happy over the miserable affair, Beverly, lie Is full of enthusiasm nnd positively noblng to be lu Graustark���right iu the thick of It all.

"Don't you ever see the serious side of life?" "My dear, the Amerlcau always lets the other fellow see the serious side of life," said Beverly. "You wouldn't be bo optimistic If a country much bigger aud more powerful thau America happened to he tlie other fellow." "It did sound frightfully boastful, didn't It? It's the way we've been brought up, 1 reckon���even we southerners, who know what it Is to be whipped. The Idea of n girl like me talking about win* nnd trouble and all that! It's absurd, Isn't It?" "Nevertheless, I wish I could see things through tliOBe dear gray eyes of yours. Oh, how I'd like lo have you with me through all the months that are lo come. You would be such a help lo me, such a Joy. Nothing would seem so hard If you were there to make me sec things through your brave American eyes. Tbe princess put her arms nbout Beverly's ueck nnd drew ber close. "But Mr. Lorry possesses an excellent pair of American eyes," protested Miss Beverly, loyally aud very happily. "1 know, dear, but they are a man's eyes. Somehow there Is u difference, you know. I wouldn't dare cry when be was looking, hut I could boohoo all day if you were there lo comfort me. He thinks I am very brave, and I'm not." she confessed dismally. "Oh, I'm au awful coward," explain- ed Beverly consolingly. "I think you nre the bravest girl in all tbe world," she ndded. "Don't you remember what you did at"��� aud then she recalled the stories that had come from Graustark ahead of tho bridal party two yenrs bo- fore.

(To Be Continued.i PULPIT DRAWL. WHEN PRINCE OF WALES Opinions of ths Church Con-rei- at Barrow- In - Furn-ii. The pulpit drawl In England waa debated at the Church Congress. Tho -uhject was raised In a paper written by the ltev. Canon Hensley Henson, who was himself unable to attend, the paper being read by th�� Rev. Canon Beechlng*. In It Canon Henson attributed tha faults of clerical reading* to the practices of monotoning and Intoning th* prayers, and he did not think It untrue, to say of many clergymen that their lirst years In the ministry, when, aa Junior members of the clerical staff, they were constantly employed In monotoning or Intoning tha services, spoilt for the rest of their Uvea their work at the lectern and In the pulpit. Audlbleness, naturalness, reverenoe, and Intelligence were necessary for good reading and good preaching. To be audible, ho said, la within the competence of most healthy men, and when men are Inaudible the reason Is generally due to their Indifference to the point whether they are heard or not. The Rev. Eric Robertson, Windermere, offered to train free of cost a dozen embryo curates in the art ot voice-production, which, he said, could be acquired In a fortnight, In order to prove to the bishops the need for an1 Institution which should undertake thla work. Canon McColl spoke of the appalling reading In churches, and his remarks were enlivened with anecdotes, the best being the Idea of a country farmer, who thought the Church Congress was the place where all the par- eons met once a year to "swop" aer- AMERICA'S EX-CHAMPION WRESTLER says:��� " After my great wrestling match wi.h J.

Who Should Raise Horses. In growing horses, as lu growing other kinds of live stock, the most potent factor is the man. Some men should grow draft horses only. Some should grow only trotters. The many should raise the former, as they are so much more easily grown. The few should grow the latter. The men who can grow good trotting horses, that Is, trotting horses of really superior merit, are few and far between while those who can also develop them are fewer still. Some men should not grow any kind of horses, as they will not make u success of It. They will not make n success of It because they do not understanei It or because they do not like It, or for both reasons. No one should entrnge In growing horses who does not take kindly to the work. And no one should -engage In growing any particular kind of horses or any class of the same unless his tastes run In thnt line. However, If one understands Ms business and grows thnt clnss of horses In which he Is most Interested there Is but Uttle doubt t.rmt he will succeed 1n tlie work���Prof. Thos.

Haartlaaa Remark of Prinoe Herbert Bismarck Almost Provoked H. R. H. to Throw the German Offender Out of the Room���Britona Interested In the Astounding "Memoire of Prince Hohenloha"���Kaiaer'e Telegram. Much that Is Interesting to Britons la contained In the astounding "Memoirs of Prince Hohenlohe (published by hla son), which shed considerable I light on the relations of Kaiser Wilhelm ! II. and Prince Bismarck. The publlca- I tlon of the book has given the Kaiser ' much annoyance, and ha3 drawn forth a fiery telegram of reprimand for the young prinoe. Prinoe Hohenlohe refers to Prinoe j William (the present Kmperor) in the j following words: "He is rather boyish, Inconsiderate young man of whom his mother Is afraid. He also has rows with his father." On Sept. 22. 1S88, Prinoe Hohenlohe was received In audience by the Empress Augusta Victoria, the wife of Wll- Uam I. "She was," he says, "very broken down and sad. We began by dls- ousslng the Emperor's last days, and then she beoamo animated, and spoke of the maliciousness and the disgraceful behavior of certain people whom she mentioned by name. Angered Prince of Wales. Prince Herbert Bismarck, the Empress added, had the Impudence to tell the Prinoe of Wales that an emperor (Kaiser Frederick) who was unable to carry on a discussion was really Incapable of ruling. The Prince of Wales ��ald that, If he had not attached Importance to the good relations between Great Britain and Germany, he would have thrown Prince Bismarck out ot the room." The pagea relating to that period su interesting to Britons���viz., tlie months of December, 1895, and January, 1896��� oontaln no reference to tho Kruger telegram, and the South African war la barely mentioned. Prince Hohenlohe, however, records at length a highly Interesting conversation on Far Eastern policy which he had with lhe Emperor Nicholas at Breslau. "His Majesty thinks," says tho Prince, "that Great Britain Is responsible for the whole movement In Armenia and Crete, and he said: 'I am very fond of Great Britain and the British, who are sympathetic with me. but I distrust their policy.'" To Gobble All Africa. The Czar also told Prince Hohenlohe that he had heard that Great Britain had a plan to bring Afslca, from the Cape to Egypt, Into her possession. That was, however, in his opinion, a long way off. The prince, In reply, said that the British attached so much importance to their supremacy In Africa because they sought relief In South Africa from the fear that they would one day lose India. "But who Is going to take India from them?" asked the Czar. "We are not so stupid as to pursue such schemes." Alluding on Jan. 7, 1900, to the prospects of the passing of the navy bill, Prince Hohenlohe wrote: "We must not expose ourselves to the danger of meeting at the hands ot Great Britain the fate of Spain at the handB of the United States." Unquestionably tho publication of the memoirs was an act of Indiscretion, and It Is easy to understand the Indignation which prompted Kaiser Wllh-ilm to send a telegram to Prince Philip, which Is one of the most fiery doouments which even the Kaiser has ever launched. Text of Kalser'a Telegram. The North German Gazette publishes the text of the telegram as follows: "Have Just read with amazement and Indignation the published account of the most private conversations between your father and myself concerning Prince Bismarck's retirement. How was It possible that material of thla kind could be published without having first obtained my permission T 1 must describe this proceeding aa tactless and Indiscreet In the highest degree, and as entirely Inopportune, sine* It Is unheard of that incidents which concern the reigning Sovereign should be published without his consent." The Kaiser's Indignation Is supposed to be out of chivalrous regard for Bismarck's memory, for the memoirs disclose nothing which does not redound splendidly to the Kaiser's honor. Thi Kaiser very early In his reign realize*] that It was a question of showing that he and not Bismarck was the ruler ol the Empire, To Print Bismarck's Side. It Is Interesting to learn at this Juno* ture that the third volume of Prlno�� Bismarck's memoirs Is at present deposited In a safe in the Bank of England. They were left to Prince Herbert Bismarck with the proviso that while the ohlef persons figuring In tha volumes were alive they were not to be published. On the other hand, if an account of this Important episode Irt modern German history waa published, Prince Bismarck left Instructions that the volume should Immediately be senl to the printers. It will be Interesting to see whether the recent publication of Prince Hohenlohe's memoirs will be considered by the Iron Chancellor"* family as sufficient cause for th* latter step.

With thai portion of tbe country traversed between Winnipeg nnd the Mountains, most of those who chance to scan this brief narrative, will, no doubt, be already familiar, nnd therefore il is necessary to make but passing mention, At that time of year, however, and in n year which for abundant harvest bids fair to eclipse anything on record, tbe sight of .so many immense stretches of ripening groin wus one culculnteil to Implant u spirit of pride und satisfaction in tlie breasts of ull who cun drink ill the view nnd revel in reflection upon the Illimitable possibilities of agricultural development in a country of such lingo areas of soil of matchless fertility, Indeed, there is siiinll room to doubt thnt Ihe eight hundred odd miles of pruirio covered in the run to the foot of tht) Hockies will one day appear ns it wero nn unbioken Held of waving grniii--n glorious tribute to that wealth of heritage to which we flic proud to lay claim today. but while dwelling for a moment upon tlie consideration of the almost unbounded stretches of grain lields, there is another (actor, and thnt a potent one, in the development ol Western Canada, which must not be lost sight of, and that is the cattle Industry, One needs but a passing glimpse of the. vast herds of cattle and flocks of sheep thnt dot the landscape, to obtain a pretty accurate c~-caption of the important port played by this brunch of husbandry in our country's upbuilding. One may see ns mnny ns ten thousand in one flock of sheep, while bands of cuttle, many hundreds strong, nre no uncommon sight; and more finely-conditioned stock one could hardly wish to east eye upon, but ibis is no cause for wonder when the boundless stretches of that most nutritious ol pastorage ��� Western Bunch Urass- ttre taken into consideration. l'rom Moose Jaw to Calgary seems one vast eaitle range, but with the advent ol irrigation facllitios it is sole to predict thnt the grazing areas will mako wny for the plough, cultivator and binder. By the time Calgary is reached, und even before that, a well-defined view of tbe Hockies is had, and swiftly rolling on one wakes almost as it wero from n reverie, so rapid, if not almost instantaneous, seems the transition from prairie to mountain environment, to find himself in the very presence of those awe-inspiring monnrchs that people as it were the Pnoiiie province. To one who hns spent most of his life on the pin ins the sensation in first gazing upon those mountain giants is certainly n peculiar one. Tlie tourist experiences alternately a sense of boundless admiration and it feeling of ecstutic pleasure that seem to paralyze all powers of speech and leave him transfixed with astonishment. Adjectives hnve not yet been manufactured that will begin to convey nn adequate idea of the magnificence and majestic grandeur of those lofty snow-capped peaks whoso towering heights on evei'y hand seem to penetrate the very clouds and defy human estimate of size nnd altitude, One of the most striking features in connection with this sen of wondei is the remarkable purity nnd transparency of water wherever seen, while there seems a very legion of springs bubbling lorth Ur>m the crevices along tho9e portions of the bases of the mountains that are visible to the naked eye. First you will see u little stream trickling through a small cleft in the rock to wind its almost trackless course through a myriad of small pines and ferns and empty itself in some mightier Hood; or, again, you catch sight, far up tbe rocky steep, of some rushing torrent, fed by seemingly inexhaustible snows nnd glaciers, leaping turbulently from crag to crag in its impetuous haste to lind its level in one of the many lakes so constantly ill view. Of the glories nnd wonders of the many places of interest nlong the route, fluch as Ilnnff, Laggan, Field, (!ln- eier, etc., too much cannot be snid, but the greatest tribute to tbo wealth of beauty and scenery is found in the ever-increasing numbers of tourists from every quarter of the globe that are everywhere seen and tax to their limit nf capacity the resources of accommodation of the ninny superbly appointed hotels of the C. P. R. and fill to repletion all the privately owned hotels nlong the route throughout the entire season, While the hikes in the clouds, the hot springs, and the vast glacier fields always command a protracted visit, there, are other equally interesting sights that should not be missed, such for instance us "Tlie Great Divide," where n small stream is seen gently des- eending the mountain side, nnd ere it reaches the railroad trnck dividing into two smnll rivulets, the one to "well into a mighty river thnt will forever be pouring its waters into the Pacific ocean, the other to How eastward arid northward with ever-increasing Strength till it finds its outlet in the Hudson's Bay, Or take, again, some of tlie great engineering feats in the construction of thnt necessarily most tortuous of lines thnt runs from mountain to sen. It ia not sufficient that the path of the iron steed should be hewn out of the solid granite, but it hns nt times to be swung across some torrent rushing hundreds of feet lielow. One of the most interesting nnd withal nerve* shaking pieces of construction is that found west of Glacier where the course of the line in crossing a deep valley, takes the shape of the letter S, spanning several times, at tin alarming altitude, the same rapid stream, nnd ultimately leaving the valley nt an elevation mnny feet below that al which it entered. Again, the view nt such places as tlie Kicking Horse Canyon, with its four tunnels to be soon at one and the same time, und Roger's Pass, with its tremendous grados, nnd glimpses of mnny astonishing twists and turns and cur- vos nlong the route, will all serve to lteep green in the memory of the traveler a trip that abounds in un paralleled scenery nnd thrilling fents of engineering. At Sicnnrous Junction a divergence wus made to visit the far-fnjiied Oku- nogan Valley, and little could one realize what a glorious surprise wns in store. This is without n doubt one of the loveliest spots in all llritisli Columbia, -while it is not too much to sny there is no fruit raising men on tlie continent tlint will compare with it for fertility of soil, abundance ol yield and quality of product. Moreover, there is n peculiar character of climate here not to lie found elsewhere from const to const. Even extremely hot ns it certainly wus while the writer wits there, there wns yet thut dryness nnd buoynucy in the nil that seemed to neutralize tbe intensitj of the heat and render it even Agree- able; nnd this climatic feature is the more noticeable to a person accustomed to the enervating effect of hciil in n naturally humid atmosphere. Having never spent u winter in this enchanting valley, wo accept the statement that n freezing temperature is seldom experienced, nnd then it Is only of very short, duration; very little snow falls, while the lake, on the placid surface of which I'm days at a time hardly n ripple may be seen, never freezes. What wonder, then, that so many newcomers are establishing homes in this district where climate perlinps more llinn nny thing else conduces BO greatly to perennial pleasure and comfort r .Shortly aftei leaving tlie main line the mountains seem to recede from view, like mists before the rising sun, and gradually diminish in size till nt the bend of the hike, they assume more the contour nnd appearance ol hills of average size. Around Vernon und north to Armstrong, lying to the north of the lake, there is a magnificent stretch of rolling country when Immense crops of grain und fruit are annually harvested, and where irrigation is available it is no uncommon tiling to out (our crops of buy or clover in lhe same year. A visit to the-extensive fruit ranch 'they cnll them ranches, not orchards) established near Vernon by Lord Aberdeen, affords one of the most pleasing spec tai'lcs-to be found anywhere in the country. Here may be seen to what degree'of perfection fruit culture cni: be developed with the aid Of skill nud seience and modern facilities and the co-opera!ion of Dame Nature in her most generous mood; nnd one enn readily understand how it is the products of this ranch huve attained such a world-wide reputation. Al Okanagan Landing the writer embarked on tlie C. P. R. Steamer "Aberdeen" for Peachland. the point of destination, and the memory of the pleasures of this most enjoyable portion of the trip will ever remain, Lake Oknnngnn is a lovely, transparent sheet of water some 75 miles long and averaging two tc three in width, and is literally teeming with iish of the genus trout. Indeed, fishing in the lake ns well op In the creeks thnt skirt its shore affords constant occupation to mam who make it n source of livelihood while the amateur devotee of line and rod will find bis Elysium within con stunt reach In almost any portion o; the valley.

This thriving town is situated ill the henrt of n famous fruit see tion and is acquiring * ever-increasing notoriety for the quality and qnan- titv of ihe products annually export ed. From Kelownn is a short run pi some fifteen mile lo Peachland, the limit of our lake trip. The first glimpse of Peachland nestling on the western shore of the lnke is suggestive of thnt peace and contentment that ever appeal so strongly to the jaded city slave, while the, physical surroundings of the district seem to have been designedly constituted bj Nature to afford one of the most charming landscapes the eye could wish to rest upon. But there is u material charm to this district Hint is daily forming a still greater attraction. Peachland, ns its name suggests, is essentially a pencil-raising district, nnd in the production ol this peerless of fruits it stands unrivalled in Canada today. This section, though of comparatively recent settlement, already boasts of mnny bearing ranches, and the writer picked fruit from trees in their fourth year that would average at lenst three enses of punches to the tree, nnd saw ns much us one thousand dollars' worth of fruit gathered from less than two hundred five-year-old trees. And such peaches I We had never tasted fruit with such a peculiarly luscious, mellow flavor���BO different to the insipid, green-picked apologies tor peaches one frequently finds exposed for sole in centres fnr removed from the source of production, And it is not alone in the raising of penches that Peachland will excel, for there are today in thnt district thousands of trees of all other kinds of fruit yielding equally large crops, while roots and vegetables seem to lind in this intensely rich soil all thnt makes for perfection of growth und development, This area of fruit land is by no menus confined to Peachland; already vast tracts in Sumuierlnnd, Penlieton nnd elsewhere on the lnke, where irrigation facilities nre possible, nre being rapidly denied and planted, and the time i-i not far distnnt, when the Oknnngnn Valley will form fl material fnctor in the supplying of the markets of the Oanadian West with Your little on-j are a constant cart ia Fall and Wint-r weather.

After a brief sojourn In Peachland, we rejoined Hie main line nt Sicu- tiious Junction to continue on to the const, and soou were again traversing a wealth of lake and mountain splendor, shortly to emerge into a magnificent . stretch of ranching country reaching out for many miles in all directions, with a distributing centre in the nourishing and picturesque town of Kamloops, From Salmon Ann clear to Ashe.roft, on either side of the line, are seen mnny attractive homes, in the establishment ol which mixed farming, Under most favorable conditions, hns evidently played no nieun part. Here, too, we lind that irrigation is becoming a strong factor in successful ugrieul- lure, and huge crops huve been garnered wherever an unlimited wntei supply wns available to develop thai latent wealth of soil so common in these mountain regions. Prom Asli- croft on toward the const we ugnin passed through numerous rugged mountain defiles, where rnilroud and river seem constantly vying for the I'ight-or-wuy, though considerable expanses ol comparatively open country are seen wesi of Agnssiz, tn which point there is a very interesting niiel extensive experimental farm operated by the Dominion Government, l'erhitps the most attractive sight between here and the const i.* the magnificent view had of Mount linker, in Washington, rearing its twelve thousand odd feet of. rock and glacier fur into the clouds, Op reaching Vancouver, the features of paramount interest, after n protracted residence so mnny miles inland, were naturally, the ocean and its commerce. The sight of the sen ni nil times arouses u pleasureable, exhilarating sensation, and one nevei seems to tire in the contemplation oi the wonders of the deep and the study of the important part tlie ocean plays in the commerce of the world, so freely instanced on every hand lu ihe couniloBB varieties of merchant craft. Alter indulging in it clip in the briny and enjoying the sights ol Vancouver for a couple of days, which, of course, included u visit to tlie far-famed Stanley Park and an inspection of its mammoth trees, we shipped on the Princess Victoria foi Victoria. That is, without a doubt, one of the finest homing palaces evei engaged in the passenger traffic oi the ocean. It is fitted with every modern convenience, hns exquisite cuisine, und is elaborately furnished in perfect iaste nud style, and offord- another instnnec of the magnificent scale upon which anything undertaken by the C. P. K. is carried out_. The beauties of the trip to Victoria on a day <*f perfect calm and cloud less firmament, with it clour perspective of tlie. gorgeous island scener} that lines the route, cannot easily be described, nud winds can only con vey but a faint conception of the pleasure experienced, The "Princess' traverses the Gulf of Georgia, nnd entering the Georgia straits winds its course through myriads of lovely islands nnd sandy burs down into the Straits of Junn de Fueu, nud, rounding the southernmost point of Vancouver Island, conies to anchor In o harbor of natural beauty tit the verj threshold of one of the fuirest eiiic- of tlie Pacific. And here it isi that Nature seems to have been most lav isli of her gifts, for there abound in and around Victoria many spots 0i great scenic l^eauty the charms 01 which beggar description. Tlie physical formation of tlie district is decidedly hilly but from the many eminences may be obtained some oi tlie most delightful views of island and sen, promontory and buy, and hill nnd dule. Indeed, so fascinated wus the writer with tho extreme natural beauty on every hand thnt he was very loath to terminate an uli too short u stay and commence the journey homeward, to again enter the arena of that hustling activity foi which our prairie capital is noted. The morning of August the sixteenth found our party trudging, grip in hand, down to the wharf where rodent anchor the Princess Victoria, fresh from her Seattle trip, to mingle with the throng of tourists homeward-bound. Tile sun's scintillating rays, coupled with the dazzling reflection upon the water of the white- painted hulk ol our craft, nhnost enveloped us In a flood of brilliance that seemed to nioek at the general reluctance to leave so charming nnd congenial a resort ns Victoria. But it "hod to be," and clearing port at an early hour, we seemed to traverse all too soon the beauties of the return voyage to Vancouver; nnd aftei enioying a few short hours around the city, once more were established in one of the comfortable tourist ouches of the O. P. R., resolved to enjoy all the sights one might have mitsed on the outward journey. And, indeed, there wus much to interest us that had before pnssed unnoticed for it is the imposing, solemn gran- dour and magnificence of the mountain lhnelsciipe, when seen for the lirst time that seems to command all one's admiration and attention nnd to erowd out ull regard for thnt exquisite harmony of detnil so essential to the charm nnd sublimity ol the whole. And here let it be nddetl that one might traverse the Rockies an hundred times, and never cense tc find fresh objects of interest nnd attraction in such nn oft-recurring tli veisity of scenery. One of the man] beauties that had a particular fascination, and which could be seen on every hand, throughout the mountain ride, was that remarkable densitj and profusion of fern growth. Fernt are ever beautiful, and certainly lose naught of their charm of natural grace in the midst of such loveliness of scenic environment. And tlie journey buck over the prairies wns by no nienns uninteresting, for at frequent intervals throughout tbe entire distance the fnmilini hum of the hinder wns distinctly audible, while full mnny a mighty field of golden grain hnd already bowed its head before the reaper, and now, us fur as the eye could see, thickly-clustered stooks dotted the horizon awaiting the fun of the separator. In conclusion, the writer has endeavored, though imperfectly, to briefly . describes the pleasures of tho trip and to pay n fitting tribute to the glories ed Nntttre'sicreations, there is a deed of tlie Canadian* Pacilic thnt cannot be too highly extolled. Few of us, no doubt, realize what tV colossal, Almost superhuman, undertaking it must hnve been to penetrate such a labyrinth of mountain nnd valley nnd complete the steel engirdlement Of this vnst continent. And surely, indeed, do we one and all owe n lusting debt of gratitude, to that eoin- pnny for making possible the enjoyment of stu'li majesty of scenic beauty, while compassing such pleasure with every comfort and convenience known to the executive and me- ehunionl skill of modern railway genius.
