 HOTELS. 
 
 Hotels are, to some extent, the reflex of a city's modes and mannei?. 
 Viewed in this light, the hostelries of this city are evidence of the houu;- 
 likeness so noticeable in Toi nto. They embody i)erfect comfort without 
 ostentation, luxury without display.

 The bnil(lin« contains two thoroughly 'ireproof elevator sliafis, in which are three 
 of the largest ;.n(l finest elevators in the city, besides the stairs, which are of steel, slate

 The ro.d'. also, is of absolutely tire-proof material, on which bonHres mifht be built 
 witliont in.iury to it or the buildini;. 
 
 There are four tiers of Hre-iiroof vaults in the buildinn, extendini; from the bavenu'iit 
 to the ninth story. To snanl against any possible danijer fn.m fire, within or without, 
 two standin« water piiies have lieeii iilaeed in tho bnildinj; with steam pump to make

 TheTempleislieutedby steam, and liKbtcd by electricity produced on the premises 
 by the latest and most improved machinery. Nentilation has received special attention, 
 niul the sanitary arrantjements are in every way up to date. 
 
 The Temple is intended ;is, 'in otlice buihlinj;, but .1 iiortioimf it will bedevoi.d toother 
 purposes. A bank occni.ies i>;n-i ot the main lb.(,r while near it is another larye monetary 
 institution, and a pul rhl- ;; hoijs occupv , rooms on three floors. In the fourtli and Hfth 
 stories of the western wintt are magnificent ('(mrt Rooms and necessary adjuncts for 
 Forestric and other society meetings. A inasjniflcent assembly room is immediately .above 
 these, occnpyinK the sixth and .seventh storie.s. The eighth story is whoi ..r-eupied by the 
 Supreme Court Offices and statr. The niul li and tenth stories are ham! iiely tiMed up 
 for the use of the Masonic fraternity. 
 
 The Temple has lieen erected under the iirofessional supervision of Mr, lienrije W . 
 (iouinlock, wlio has certainly succeeded in producinsr an excellently planned and ornate 
 buildint,', and so well proportioned that few would realize when lookinii at it that it is the 
 highest buiidint; yet erected in Canada. As a matter of fact, it is Ho feet lii«h, exclusive of 
 the tower, which adds 4.-. feet, making a total heialit of Is.', leet from thesi.lewalk to the top 
 of the tower. From the roof of this eminence an extensive view may be enjoyed of the 
 city and surrounding country, and even Niagara Falls may be seen. 
 
 The bnilding is most conveniently located, being only half a block from the new City 
 Hall, less tlian '.'(Kl feet from the City Registry OtHce, a block distant from Osgoode Hall, 
 and the same dist.ance from several lines of electric cars. 
 
 The Temple Cafe, lately established, is a welcome addition to Toronto's Justly jiopular 
 places of refreshment. It is an innovation in restaurants, for hardly will there be found 
 its superior on the continent. On the ground tlor>r or basement are tho restaurant and 
 lunch counters. On the f^rst floor are dining rooms superbly furnished and eciuipped with 
 all that modern art can command; no expense has been spared, and the cuisine challenge.; 
 comi.arison with tiie best. Mr. T, G. T),T.vey. the manager, is a man of long experienee,.

 ANDERSON'S FISH PRESERVES, GEORGIAN BAY. 
 
 While an abundance of fish is to be found in almost all the northern 
 waters of Ontario, still it is well worth while knowing that within short 
 distance of Toronto, there is a first-class, extensive, private fish pi-esei've. 
 This is known as Anderson's, and consists of a beautiful lake 2i miles long 
 by 2 miles wide. It is situated 3 miles from Muskoka Mills on the (Georgian 
 Bay— inside channel. The railway point is either Midland or Penetjuio-

 thence by S.S. "City of Toronto," of the Northern Navigation Comtmny, to

 direct to Anderson's wharf at fishing grounds. This lake is well stocked 
 with Black Bass, ranging from two to five pounds; Pickerel (dore) two to 
 eight pounds; Maskinonge, up to twenty-five pounds. The water is of 
 various depths, down to eighty feet, affording abundant feeding grounds and 
 a natural fish hatchery. The shores are deeply indented with picturesque 
 bays and inlets and the surface of the lake is dotted with numerous well- 
 wooded islands. 
 
 The property comprises in all 2,000 acres, the densely wooded shores 
 affording co'<^r for deer, bear, foxes, partridge, and fur-beaiing animals. 
 There is good duck shooting in the fall. There is accommodation for a 
 limited number of fishing jMirties and tourists at rates from $l.oO i)er day, 
 including fishing privileges. Adaress all communciations to J. J.'

 .Since tin; Moik of inakiiin' ()iillia",s advaiitaj^^es as a suniniei' I'csort 
 kiiowii lias \,vvn iindertakeM in an ()i<>-anize(l way, the town and the piettv 
 lake upon which it is hnilt have advanced hy leaps and l)ounds in popnlaV 
 favoi'. Last sinnnier the available accommodation was taxed to its utmost }»y 
 the to.nists who Hocked thither from Canadian cities and fnmi across the 
 border, particnlarly from the Southern States. In conseciuence of this, 
 preparations have heen made for a large increase in the nnmher of visitors 
 during the coming suunner. 
 
 Several new resorts have heen opened on the shores of Lake Couchi- 
 chiiig, impiovements have l)eeu made in the hotels of the town, and a number 
 of additional private houses have ojiened their doors to visitois. This latter 
 class of accommodation is the distinguishing feature of Orillia's bid for the 
 tourist trade, the Board of Trade having persuaded many of the best homes 
 in the town to take in summer toui'ists, at very reasonable rates, and having 
 })repared a list of these lioardiug pLiees whicli will be gladly forwarded l)y 
 the Secretary to anyone who may apply for it. Orillia is also making "a 
 specialty of I'enting furnished residences (many of them splendidly appoin'ted 
 homes, fi-om which for one reason or another the owners ai'e to be absent for 
 the sunnner) and furnished cottages, and quite an array of these were 
 ottered through tlie Board of Trade this spring. In view of the large 
 amount of sjKice devoted to the subject in last year's (Juide, it is scarcely 
 necessary to state at length Orillia's many attractions and advantages as a 
 summer resort. Suffice it to say that for beauty of scenery, healthfuluess 
 of surroundings and opportunities of enjoyment it is unsurpassed, while in 
 the combination of all the comforts of civilization with the freedom from 
 restraint that makes roughing it popular, Orillia occupies a }X)sition that is 
 (juite uniciue. 
 
 Built upon a jieninsula between Lakes Simcoe and Couchiching and 
 fanned by the breezes of both lakes, this charming summer resort is always 
 cool. It may be added that additional means of amusement are being piovided 
 for this season. For one thing, two new steamers have been built to ply on 
 lakes t'ouchiching and Simcoe, making four excursion boats of various sizes 
 with Orillia as their headciuarters. For another, a Canoe Club has been 
 organized, which ))romises to provide abundance of aquatic sport. Consid- 
 eralile improvements have also been made in the town's beautiful lakeside 
 resort, Couchiching Beach Park, which, by the way, otfers unrivalled 
 attractions as an objective for excursions. 
 
 Empuiers can alVvays depend n\nm receiving jiiompt and reliable 
 information from tlie Secretary of the local Board of trade. 
 
 It may lie mentioned in passing that there are still many excellent 
 sites round Lake Couchiching which are worthy the attention of {jersons on 
 the look out for desirable locations for summer residences.

 he three larger bo<lies of water, viz. : .Muskoka, at the foot of the chain and 
 the largest, bemg •_>! miles long; Kosseau next in order, 12 miles long: 
 .aseph, the most northerly, although parallelling Kosseau, is IS miles lont. 
 Ihe width o these lakes is in phu-es about six miles, narrowing ,lown t"> 
 mere channels barely wide enough for b.)at passage. 
 
 The distance from Toronto is 1 fj miles, fn.m Hamilton 14.5 miles, on 
 he Northern Division of the (irand Trunk Railway, trains running direct 
 to Muskoka wharf and connecting there with the well appointed mail 
 steamers of the Muskoka Navigation Company. From Toronto or Hamilton 
 .t IS little more than a half day's journey to the extreme end of the lakes. 
 Ihe Muskoka Lxpress is a very fast train, leaving about 11.30 a.m 
 
 A complete new complement of parlor ,.ars, of the hitest design and 
 costliest workmanship, will this year be a feature of this popular train. 
 
 Muskoka IS famous for go.„l ileer and bear hunting, partridge and duck 
 shootmg, and in many phices for excellent fishing, salmon trout, black bass 
 and pickerel (dore) being the most plentiful.

 of the attractions of Muskoka Lakes, has greatly enlarged, beautified and 
 renovated the house througliout, and the tourist will find the Wiiulsor 
 second to none. It is only about five minutes- walk from the celebrated 
 Bala Falls, the fisherman-s paradise, the realization of the dream of 
 enthusiastic anglers. There is a daily mail and Toronto daily pafiers are 
 placed on tlie table, keeping the pleasure seeker in touch with the outsi.le 
 world while he or she is enjoying the delig'.ts and restfulness of Xature's 
 wilds. The rates at this house are .Sb.lO to A2.m per day, *7.00 to .-^10 00

 LAKE OF BAYS OR HUNTSVILLE LAKES. 
 
 THE SPECKLED TROUT COUNTRY. 
 
 Hnntsville. a village of •2,(»00, distant Uo miles from Tor. ito, is the 
 centre for this district. It is on the main line, Northern Division of the 
 (i. T. K. The Muskoka express runs to Hunt lie, meeting the steamers 
 for the lake trip. The village is one of the highest points in Ontario and is 
 prettily situated between lakes Vernon and Fairy. 
 
 The journev from Hnntsville to Baysville or Dorset (two terminal points) 
 by Captain Marsh's Himtsville and Lake of Bays line of boats is through 
 beautiful scenery. The route is down Big East River, across Fairy Lake, 
 then through a narrow winding channel a mile long, across Peninsula Lake, 
 in which is'the well known summer resort Deerhurst ; at the end of this S 
 mile stage of the journey is Lake View Hotel at the portage, which leads 
 from Peninsula Lake to Lake of Bays. An electric railway is to be con- 
 structed across this mile portage, at the end of which the steamboat again 
 takes up the thread of travel. Eight miles across Lake of Bays is Baysville 
 which, with Dwight on the same lake and Dorset on Trading Lake, the 
 farthest point, or 18 miles fnnn Hnntsville, are good fishing grounds. 
 
 At Dorset, connection is made by portage with the famous speckled 
 trout region, commencing at Hollow Lake. There is a boat service on these 
 waters also, which comi.rise Hollow, Kimbairs, Rock, Bear, Round, Fletcher 
 and hundreds of streams and smaller trout ponds. Baysville is also noted 
 for its speckled beauties, and salmon trout and white Hsh. The larger lakes 
 on the main line of steamboat travel have been stocked with black bass. 
 
 In Hnntsville are excellent stores, a private bank, two hosi.itals and 
 very comfortable hotels, notably the Rei«l House near the boat landing.

 While it has fre(iuc-ntly been urged that the great tieecss.ty of our 
 summer resorts is the erection of new hotels, modern in design an.l equip- 
 ment and with large guest capacity, it has remained for the proi-netors ot 
 the H..tel Brant to take tlie initiative in this matter and to be the hrst to 
 complete such a building. 
 
 Burlin-ton is 9 miles from Hamilton on the north shore of Lake 
 Ontario. Tlie Hotel Brant is built on the site of tlie old house of Chic 
 Bunt of the Six Nation Indians, a portion of the house, 1(M» years old, still 
 remaining. On the hot^'l property can still be seen some of the Indian mounds 
 and burial grounds.

 The journey through these beautiful waters is described by J. (i. 
 Holland as "the iinest tri}) on the continent." The boats o^H!rated by the 
 above company are t!ie splendid steamers "James Swift" and "Rideau 
 Queen," which leave Kingston on Mondays and Thursdays at 7 a.m., 
 Tuesdays and Fridays at 1 j).m. Leave Ottawa Mondays and Thursdays at 
 3 \).\n. These steamers are electric lighted, steani heated, ventilated by

 The Rideau Lakes trip is one of the most enjoyable in Canada. The 
 onind scenerv for whieh these waters are noted is seen in dayli-ht. Each 
 year manv expert Ameriean anglers visit this district for the bass hshni-, 
 which is about the best in Canadian inland waters. Sahnon and ,\hiskmonge 
 are alsr) plentiful. The Rideau Route only reciuires to be known to become 
 ,„ie of the most popula.^ on tlu- (•.•ntinent. The scenery is varied and 
 charmincr, one of th.; finest spots beinjr the famous Jones' Falls. One 
 of New" York's celebrated nuiomine writers describes it as follows: 
 "Jones' Falls is one of the mo t beautiful spots in Ontario. Those who 
 have seen it and been in a lu.sition to comi)are it with other 'beauty spots' 
 on the continent, state p..sitively that while they may have witnessed its 
 equal, certainly they never saw its superior, all points of interest taken mto 
 consideration. It is simjily fairyland." 
 
 The season of the "James Swift" is from May 1st to Nov. 1st, "Rideau

 Ottawa and Neighborhood. 
 
 Of the many beautiful cities of the Continent of America, not one can 
 ))oast of more beautiful scenery, statelier buildings, or more attractive 
 hunting, rishing and pleasure resorts ir. the vicinity than the regal city of 
 Ottawa, the capital of this fair Dominion of Canada. 
 
 Ottawa is rea(,-hed from Toi'onto by the C. P. R. direct ('25i\ miles), or 
 by (i. T. R. to Brockvilleor Prescott, thence C. P. R. ; from Montreal and 
 east by Canada Atlantic Ry., C. V R. or Ottawa River Navigation Co. ; from 
 Kingston (on (!. T. R. or R. & O. Steamboat Line), by Rideau Lakes 
 Navigation Co. It is also easily reached from Niagara Falls, Butlalo, 1,000 
 Ishmds, New York and Boston; and from MuskoUa and Parry Sound by 
 the Ottawa, Arnprior and Parry Sound Ry. (Canada Atlantic Ry.) 
 
 The city is beautifully situated on a lofty pinnacle at the junction of 
 the Ottawa,^ Rideau and Catineau Rivers. Tiie popidation is about 40,000. 
 In Ottawa itself are many attractions, which alone make a visit 
 profitable and pleasant. Among many objects of special interest are the 
 Parliament Buildings, built of white stone, only equalled in beauty of 
 architecture l>y tho.se at \Vashington; Rotikclitfe Park; Chaudiere Falls; 
 Rideau River "and Falls; Rideau Hall, the residence of the (Jovernor- 
 <leneral; (Geological Museum; Fish Hatchery; National Art (iallery and, 
 not least, the gigantic lumber mills and slides. Of the vast accumulation

 Besides the city's attractions there are many l)eautiful resorts easily

 Hall and Russell Theatre, and close to all public buildings; it is one of the 
 best appointed commercial hotels in the city, and is largely patronized by 
 members of Parliament, tourists and the travelling ))ublic. It is fitted 
 throughout with steam heating, electric lights and speaking tubes. An 
 addition has lately liu'ni made of twenty rooms, affording accommodation 
 altogether for 330 guest ■^ The building has also been tiioroughly e(|ui|)ped

 The building itself is of handsome architectural design and of ornate 
 interior construction. It contains elegantly furnished bedrooms, single 
 and en suite, the most modern sanitary airangements, steam heating, 
 electric light throughout, electric bells, passenger elevators, etc. Ample 
 provision has been made for indoor amusements, in the tine bowling alley,

 accom])animent of a good orchestra. Bicycling, bathing, rowing, sailing, 
 tennis, water tolwgganing, fishing, etc. , are among the outdoor amusements. 
 
 The Hotel Victoria is situated in the centre of a fine park of thirty 
 acres, on the shore of Lake Deschenes, a widening of the Ottawa River 
 twenty-eight miles by one to four in extent. Mr. F. X. St. Jaccpies, of The 
 Russell, of Ottawa, is also proprietor of this fine hostelry. The rates are 
 §2.00 per day, §10.00 per week and upwards. 
 
 MONTREAL. 
 
 The city of Montreal, the conunercial metro])olis of Canada, is liuilt on 
 an island, bearing the same Jiame, and formed l)y the confluence of Uvo of 
 Canada's noblest streams ; the Ottawa washing the north shore, and the St. 
 Lawrence the south shoi'e. This island is thirty miles long by ten wide. 
 
 Tlie city itself is built for three miles along the river front, the 
 numerous quays and wharves ju'esenting a Inistling and interesting scene. 
 It <- tends north to the foot of the mountain where are located the principal 
 residential streets. The views and drives to be enjoj-ed at the summit of 
 the mountain, 700 feet above the level of the I'iver, are exce])tionally fine 
 and are enjoyed alike by resident and visitor. Montreal is notal)ly a 
 beautiful city during the summer season. 
 
 There is much to im[)ress the traveller when approaching the city, 
 either by river or rail. One of the most striking objects ol)served from the 
 deck of one of the R. & O. Co.'s fine steamers is the (Jrand Trunk new 
 dou])le track steel bridge, called the Victoria Jubilee Bridge, wliich Ins 
 replaced the old tubular structure. This bridge spans the St. Lawrence 
 •onnecting the island of Montreal with the south shore and forming the link 
 to Portland and Quebec by (irand Trunk Railway. In addition to double 
 tracks this bridge has carriage ways and foot walks on each side of the 
 main trusses. 
 
 A notable feature of the ai)pearance of the city as viewed from the 
 river, is the many glittering sjjires and towers of churches and cathedrals. 
 Chief among these religious edifices are the St. James Cathedral, 240 feet 
 in height; and Notre Dame Churrih, with lofty towers rising to a height of 
 200 feet. 
 
 Among numerous interesting points near Montreal are St. Helen's 
 Island and Mountain Park on Mount Royal, one of the finest parks anywhere 
 to be seen and easily reacheil l)y incline Railway. Lachine; Beheil

Montreal. 
 
 f3 
 
 Mountnin; St. Lambert; St. Anne's; Lon<,nie)iil; UiPrairie, and many 
 other i)Iaces in the vicinity of Montreal are popuhir siuniner resorts. 
 
 Montreal contains massive warelionses, palatial hotels, Wvi educational 
 institutions, thoroughly eiinipped ; brilliant, modern stores, and an excellent 
 Electric Street Railway system. 
 
 Si)eaking of stores, there are many that will tempt the tourist and 
 si<;jht-seer to part with a portion of their loo c sj^ndinj; money, which rintls 
 its way into the tine jewelleis, furriers and imunmoth retail emporiums. 
 An institution which is well worth a visit and tour of inspection is "Carsley's." 
 This fine store occupies a whole block in the centre of the business section 
 of the city, bounded by St. James, Notie Dame, St. John and St. Peter 
 Streets. 
 
 To f^ain an insight into the methods employed in conducting such a 
 large retail business as that of the S. Carsley Company, Limited, and 
 thereby to form some idea of the perfection attained in (.'anada by this class 
 of business, will in itself be a revelation to strangers. Tlic innnense 
 assortment of articles of every description, Indian curios, views, souvenirs, 
 silverware, books, etc., etc., atibrds an excellent opportunity for the tourist 
 to replenish their stock of travelling necessaries. The building is a sort of 
 modern hmdmark, as it is situated close to many places of interest which 
 should lie included in a tour through :Montreal, such as Notre Dame Church, 
 Place D' Amies, Maisonneuve Monument, Victoria Scjuare, Court House, 
 Bank of INlontrcal, Bank of B. N. A., Post Office and many others. The 
 store, with its late additions, has frontages on St. James, Notre Dame, and 
 St. Peter Streets. It is easy of access from all parts of the city by street 
 cars. ,

 It is the enti'epot for ocean travel, the link lietween America's great lakes 
 aiul foreign connnerce. Canadu':i iwo great railways, the (i.T.R. and 
 C.P.R., have their Head Offices here, the former Company having under 
 course of construction a splendid new building, which will afford much 
 needed modern and central acconuuodation.
