Glorious Lake St. John. ‘A Vacation de Luxe in Canada, the Tourist’s Mecea | O those to whom a vacation when spent near to Nature’ ada affords the greatest and most unlimited opportunities imaginable, and no section of that wondrous country is so characteristic of its primeval grandeur and beauty as the region round-about that vast inland sea, Lake St. John the home of the leaping Ouananiche, or fresh. water salmon. The northernmost settlement in the Domin- ion, situated midway between the ancient city of Quebec and Hudson’s Bay, the tourig ‘drops anchor” in tne quaint village of Rober- val, a veritable stranger in a strange land, and he is not surprised to learn that the English tongue is almost as much a stranger in the place as he himself. This is the abode of the “habitant,” or French-Canadian peasant, cele- brated in song and story, whose French patow would puzzle a Parisian and whose English is most “fearfully and wonderfully made.” The hotel Roberval is near at hand, however— luxury and creature comforts in the midst of the wilderness—and here we find the result of Yankee enterprise in a most comfortable and thoroughly equipped hostelry under the man- agement of Mr. H. G. Beemer, a native Pennsylvania, who still maintains his allegiance to “Uncle Sam.” One can scarcely realize that Lake St. John is sixty miles long by twenty-five miles wide and is fed by three tremendous rivers compar: able to the Mississippi in size, which prac: tically drain all that vast territory lying south of Hudson's Bay. Its most wonderful feature is the “Grand Discharge,” or a series of terrific rapids formed in giving -birth to the famovs Saguenay River, extending from the outlet to the Lake for a distance of fifty miles to th village of Chicoutimi, the beginning of naviga- tion. Nowhere on this continent, is Nature more lavish with her charms, more awe-inspit- ng in her majesty or more terrible in ber stormy moods. With Roberval as headquarters, the tourst can spend a whole summer in the most fas cinating and absorbing hunt for pleasurable adventure. The birch-bark canoe is the on versal method of transportation, which, in th hands of the unerring and well-nigh infallible guides of this region, constitute the most thrill Jing and exciting sport imaginable. There is literally no end to the trips and expeditices lasting from one day to six weeks, upon whic the tourist may embark under the expert 60% duct of the guides, with the satisfying asset ance that there is nothing quite like it to found in any other corner of the county Up the big rivers for Muskallonge and Pile weighing from five to thirty-five pounds; P* dling up some little stream for a few 6238 sport with the liveliest brook-trout Gal hooked, running as high as two and a Mi pounds, or trying your hand at luring the k of these waters, concededly the sreatest 30! miest fresh water fish in this part of comicbooks.com
