Tenvied good Capt, Ballast and his man-of-all- affairs, Tom, their sea trip from Annapolis Royal around the splendid shores of Nova Scotia to Hal- Max. They saw everything romantic and beauti- fui along tne coast, and came upon the ancient city from a point of vision where its bay-islands, Mts out-reaching headlands and sunny capes, and its quaint old self, are all very fascinating and Winsome to the traveler's eyes. But from the Witching shores of the Basin of Minas to the peninsula's capital city, one must possess a rare and radiant fancy to conjure from the dreary landscape even one sight or scene which lingers asa pleasant memory. Vast Teaches of stunted hemlock and spruce broken ouly by some black lagoon, swampy lake or God- forsaken collection of houses which stand for a rallWay station, appear and disappear until one stifles from the monotonous sameness and dreart- ness. The very horizon is Jagged and cruel from bieax and haif-purned trees. Crows wheel and swirl and caw above the blasted landscape. Here and there great fields of broken rock lift their sharp angles as If some race of Titans bad sudden- iy deserted a intghty task of quarrying. I know of no use to Which the entire region may ever be put Unless it be ceded to Great Briain when we finally take possession of Canada.

Over 30,000,000 livres were expel by France, and “ail the energies and resources of her government for twenty Years” were devoted to itscompletion. Historians State that this was the greatest fortress of the World in its lime. ‘The harbor was guarded by a battery of thirty 28-pounders on Goat Island, and by the Royal Battery of thirty heavy guns which raked the entrance, On the landward side was a deep moat jecting bastions, the great careening-dock was opposie.” The land ‘and harbor sides of the town were defended by lines of ramparts and on which 80 guns were mounted; and the West Gate Was overivoked by a battery of 24-poundera. The loity Citadel was in the gorge of the King’s Bas- ton, Tu the center of the ‘city was the stately stone church, nunnery and hospital of St. Jean de Dieu. ‘The sireets crossed each otuer at mgnt al gies, and communicated with the wharves by five ales in the harborward wall, ‘The world looked with awe upon the somber walis of Loulsburg, whose Lowers rose like giants above the Norther, Siac zbem, ngicaliy, came incalculable ios and jaughter.

This expedition was destroyed by unparalelled stormns, but two ships Of line and a few transports reaching Halifax, Where D'Auville died of grief, and Vice-Admiral D’ Estourneile committed suicide through humilia- on and shame. Again France dispatched six- teen men-of-war and twenty-eight other Vessels to Louisburg. ‘'Th-se were nearly all captured by the English with $5,000,000 worth of convoyed goods. 1n 1749 the ciose of the Franco-English war re- stored Louisburg to France; but ou the outbreak of another war In 1755 Louisburg was «gain the ‘objective point of tremendous defensive and ag- essive operations.

LADIES GOODS. ioe Clinging Draperies Encourage Posing. From the New York World, ‘It 1s said that since the empire gowns began to ‘be popular women have begun again to practice ‘the dine art of posing, as they did in the days of Josephine, Iviseven said that the pictures of the women of that day known as “The Court of Napoleon” serve them as models. At all events ‘the striking of attitudes has become very notice- able since the advent of clinging draperies, Among the two most successful aud most ob- served have been Elia Wheeler Wilcox, at Narra- feasts Pier, and Mrs. Awéile itives'Chanier, at ewport, ‘They are both rather given to ine Picturesque in their gowns, Drs, Wilcox Wears black saun einpire’ dress, " trimmed with white lace and red und green cords, and she quite naturally into that Position on the side of a chair, with one palm carelessly upturned, that we aave grown familiar With in the famous picture of Mine. Recamier, ‘Mrs. Chanler ts somewhat too short and pium| lor the pseudo-classic styles of tue empire ai therefore, prefers the really ciassic draperies of ancteut Greece, Sue wears long Rowing garments of white China silk very frequeatiy, und bas a fashion of coming suddenly turough’ a doorway with a swift upward sweep of the curtains, while ‘the long open sleeves fall away from her rounded arms; Lue effect a8 she stands there for oue brief Insist belug, it ts said, beyond measure charm- ing. She and Mrs, Wilcox are great friends and mutual adiirers, having corresponded regularly since the publication of “The Quick or the Dead?” Which Mrs, Wilcox declares 15 the greatest of American novels. Mrs. Chanier returns the com. Pulment by aN earnest admiration of Lue former’s “poems of Passion,” which four or five years ago created the sume sort of sensation in the West that Airs, Chanler’s novel did uere. Ignorance of Sanitary Principles, From the Popular Science Monthly. In his census reports Dr. Blilings estimates that in the United States 100,000 deaths occur every year from strictly preventable diseases alone, ‘This 1a unquestionably a very moderate estimate, and, if there are reckoned also twelve cases of serious illness for every death, we see what agreat amount of suffering results from ignorance of sau- tary principles. But how ts this ignorance mani. fested? Are not our architects competent to deal with the problem of household sanitation? It will be said, perhaps, that it 1s the province of the architect to direct the entire work of house build- ing and to arrange every detail of the fittings, But 1 should be considered that the selence of sanita- Uon ts broad and comprehensive. Years of study and of experience in sunilary-work are necessary for ® proper understandidg of the subject. Icis perhaps unfortunate that there is $0 little 10 Uhe severe and unpleasant details of Unis work to commend ii to those Whose tastes have led them Vo the study of the inore attractive principles of artistic construction and the science Of esthetics, An architect should wave the soul of an artist, but Unere are few men whose nature 13 80 broud us to combine truly artistic tastes with a love for the details of dificult mechanical work, invoiving Ube necessity for undertaking comprehensive and scientific research.
