U'KKLV the one who wrote these lines w;is basking in the smiles of Yarmouth at the time the inspiration ^^\ caught him! Situate at the extreme noiith eastern point of Nova Scotia, its shores almost washed by the Culf Stream, with a humid climate nevt-r very cold even in winter, with a sui xmer thermometer seldom exceeding 70 de- grees, it is a haven of rest, a refreshing bath to the heat-stricken United Stateser who comes this way during the holiday season. A daily steamer from ISoston during the summer lands the traveller in Yarmouth in from thirteen to hfteen hou*-'!— steamers that are titled with every detail that com- fort can ask for, manned by officers whose A MORNING'S CATCH ON THE TUSKET RIVER iXtltntion to the wi'lfire .inci wisht'H of tlu'ir mustN, \\.\s ii.unvi\ tlu-m ,\ mori; th.in loi.il ri|»iit.itn»».

Deep sea fishing from boats or small steamers is one of Yar- mouth's chief summer pleasures, and great and vig- orous sport is had amimg the cod, haddock, halibut and dogfish, with which our coasts abound. Our inland fish- ing, too, is still m its prime, the rivers, accessible best in May and June for trout and salmon catching, but good in the later months in the upper waters of Camiiing out is ;i pleasure in which even the ladies can take part here, for the fishing grounds are easily by train and coach or \va;;on, and the scenery gives splendid employment to the photographer and to the B ,'i i I f. ■'■- *■' A FALLEN MONARCH. ? ^H i ■■I ^ H 1 r 1 • t artist. Experienced boatmen, with a river boat, can be hired for ^2.00 per day. They understand their work and relieve one of all the attendant drudgery. You can have your choice of the quaint French tones of the seventeenth century or the soft sweetness of the Micmac Indian's tongue, for here we have them both. Yarmouth County is a perfect network of rivers, streams and lakes, fully one-third of the County being water- covered, and roads good for driving or wheeling thread in and out among them, giving new surprises at every turn- I he sea-coast is rugged and broken and dotted, with islands. And here we must mention one important fact, the why and wherefore of which we know not, but those who come here to visit us year after year say that our climate is a perfect panacea for hay fever. It is a disease absolutely unknown here, and the victim of this annoying luxury speedily loses all traces of his pet summer ailment on his arrival. I his alone is worth a trip to Yarmouth this summer. And then our sunsets ! Such cloud vagaries, such tints, such kaleidoscopic changes, such effects and colors of sunsets as we have ! Tourists rave over them. We are not much for art ourself, preferring a good substantial meal at most any time, but there are those who like such things and you may be one of them. Your palate, too, will be tickled in Yarmouth, for where can you get such fruits in such abundance- not shop- worn and travel-tired, but fresh and luscious from the picker's hand ? Strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, currants, blueberries, huckleberries, and real honest Jersey cream to go with it all. 'rhere are churches and schools in Yarmouth that will repay a visit to themselves and their surroundings. There IS a library building at the North Knd, occupied by a book society organized in .825, and having amongst it^- possessions many old and rare volumes. There is also a small museum in connection, liack of the town lies the " Mountain Cemetery," our only large park, and here art has aided nature in producing a most beautiful and well-kept garden. It is considered second only to the public gardens of Halifax, and in many respects excels them. The visitor can enjoy a pleasant evening and make many friends if he wishes among the Masons, Odd Fellows or Forester societies. There is also a branch of the Temple of Honor of Massachusetts. Twelves miles north of the town, after a pretty drive along the sea shore or up bv the Milton lakes, you come to the Port Maitland beaches, mile upon mile of hard level sand almost without a rock. A few miles further to the northward and y.n, reach the French settlements, full of interest for the tourist.
