Hints to Tourists.
As this is the season of the year when | persons are seeking for scenes of pleasure’ and enjoyment, the frequent enquiry is: where shall we go to escape the excessive heat of our crowded cities? In answer, I would say: take the first train going east for the Island of Prince Edward, and try! any of the following localities. Arriving at Pictou, N. S., or Point du Chene, N. B.,, you can take passage on either of the Steam Navigation Co’s. large and handsome boats to Charlottetown or Summerside, or by way of Cape Tormentine to Cape Traverse, in the Messrs. Strang’s steamer. At all those points the trains of the P. E. I. Rail- way will carry you to any part of the colony you may wish to visit. From Char- lottetown trains run east to Mount Stewart, where the junction of the Souris and Georgetown branches are located. In going south you touch Cardigan, and in a few minutes arrive at Georgetown, which is the shire town of King’s County. Here will be found the finest harbor in the colony. On the opposite side of the Mon- iague River there is one of the most highly cultivated agricultural districts to be found\ anywhere. Further up the river hes the town of Montague Bridge. Penetrating into the country, excellent farms with com- fortable buildings are seen on every hand. Following on to the southward you paces through the Murray Harbor district, and thence along the shore going west fine set- tlements are met until you return to Char- lottetown by way of Belfast, Vernon River, etc. Or returning by rail from George- town to Mount Stewart, you may take the eastern line touching at Morell, St. Peter's Bay, etc., until you reach Souris, the rapidly rising town of the eastern terminus of the line, where a view of the breakwater and spacious roadstead can be obtained. This place is destined to be the outport of the Island in the near future, for early and late shipments of the products of sea and land. Going further east, you will arrive at the West River district, and thence to the East Point lighthouse. Returning along the north shore you reach the North Lake district. Then on retracing your steps to Souris, you take rail for the western portion of the Island. On arriving at Royalty Junction, trains are found ready to convey you to Hunter River for the North Shore. Proceeding west by rail, you reach Bradalbane, where convey- ances can be had for Stanley, Clifton, &c., or, following the line of railway, you come to Emerald, where the junction of the Cape Traverse line is situated, anda train will carry you to the Lansdowne Hotel, thence across the Strait if desired. The tourist going west from Emerald, will then arrive at Kensington, an inland town of much en- terprise, from which roads are leading to Malpeque, New London, &c., on the north, and Centreville on the south. Going further | west you soon arrive at Summerside, the commercial capital of Prince County, where a steamer plies between this port and New Brunswick. Extending your trip further
‘west by rail, you pass several stations until | Alberton is reached, where an extensive business is carried on, then on to Tignish, the western terminus of the line. A very interesting trip may be taken along the western shore towards West Cape and ad- joining localities.
The many features of interest which are found on our Island must be seen and realized to be appreciated, and unless some attention is called thereto by our people though the press and otherwise, we will re- main in the shades of obscurity and _ isola- tion to the end of the chapter. To ensure an increase of visitors to our shores during the hot months in summer, more accommo- dations are required throughout the rural districts, especially along the sea-side. If some more of our well-to-do farmers would add two or three bed-rooms to their already comfortable homes, hundreds of tourists from the Upper Provinces and United States would be induced to come to our beautiful Island home. With the aid of our steamers from Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, and our railway, we present facilities for travel which should attract a great number of the pleasure-seeking popu- lation of the larger cities on this continent.
To the sportsmen we offer shooting, fish- ing, boating, etc. To the lovers of nature we give free access to our forests of hard and soft wood, our fields clothed witha mantle of living green, and winding streams of pure water meandering in their serpen- tine courses, thus supplying a feast of reason and flow of soul. To the tourist we present our line of railway from one end of the Island to the other, or horses and carriages at our various livery stables, and if that is not sufficient inducement, full permission is given to test the qualities of ‘*shank’s mare.” To the invalid we furnish free bathing in our spacious gulf, cooling breezes and fresh wholesome food. ‘To all who visit our shores we extend a hearty and cordial welcome. Unfortunately the “Garden of the Gulf,” with its health- giving climate, its beautiful scenery and pleasant surroundings, is but imperfectly known to many of our brethren of the western provinces, or our cousins of the neighboring Republic. Our sea-girt isle needs but one visit to make it the resort of the careworn man of business, the admirer of new scenery, the man of pleasure, the lover of quiet retreat, the exhausted lady of fashion, and all who desire to enjoy the delicacies of the earth or the sea. In short, our Island presents - a quiet and calm re- treat for the harrassed and worried denizens of the bustling centres of the commercial cities of the present day, and now is the time and this is the place to enjoy life in seclusion and comfort.

Several cases of cholera are reported in the neighborhood of Berlin.
A good horse-meat dinner can ad in Berlin for five cents.
Mr. Gladstone thinks that land values in England are destined to improve.
One New York firm recently sold in one day forty thousand quarts of ice creawi.
It is said that San Salvador has rejected the peace proposals of Guatemala, and a renewal of hostilities is expected.
Miss Frances Willard said in Chicago that a movement is on foot to amalgamate the Women’s Christian Temperance Union and the Salvation Army.
A St. Paul despatch says the crops in McIntosh County, North Dakota, are a total failure, and some of the farmers are already asking for assistance.
There are now 120 women in the Berlin telephone exchanges. It has been Cecided to use only women in the future, as it has been found that their voices are much more
now be

{ audible than men’s, owing to the higher
pitch.
The steamship Parthia, which arrived at Vancouver on Thursday, made the trip from Yokohama in 13 days 22 hours and 44 minutes, She had 49 first-class passengers, 106 Chinese and 12 Japanese, also 1500 tons freight.
Of the 1342 abandoned farms reported in New Hampshire a year ago, 301 are now occupied. fThey have nearly all been bought either by well-to-do people from cities for summer homes, or by practical farmers.
Trade-marks were known in ancient Ba- bylon: China had them as early as 1000 B. C.; they were authorized in England in 1300: Guttenburg, the inventor of printing, is said to have had a lawsuit over a trade- mzrk.
A watch for blind people has been in- vented in Switzerland. In the middle of every figure is a smail peg, which drops when the hour hand reaches the figure. The owner feels that the peg is down, and counts back to 12 to determine the hour.
The apple crop in the Annapolis Valley at ihe present time does not promise well. It will probably not be large, as the early fruit is small and scrubby. There are en- couraging reports, however, with respect to the winter crop, which not only promises a large yield, but excellent quality fruit.
Mozart’s harpischord stands in a drawing room at Windsor Castle, which many years ago was in the Queen’s morning room. The double set of keys are yellow with age, aid itis an antiquated and shabby looking instrument. ery few visitors are privileged to enter the drawing room.
The tomato is having a great run in London as a medicinal agent, especially for biliousness. One correspondent informs a leading journal that he found in the tomato a specific for a chronic throat trouble, and if there is any virtue in the vegetable as a hair renewer and corn cure the extensive experimentation now going on will surely bring it out.
In a thick fog on Friday night list the iron steamer Latharna, Capt. Gray, bound from Philadelphia for Glace Bay, ran ashore on Soldier’s Ledge of Tusket Island, off the Nova Scotia coast. Her bottom is gone, and she is badly damaged otherwise. Her crew were taken off by the schooner A, M. Burnham, bound from Gloucester for the banks, and brought to Yarmouth.
In the House of Commons a few even- ings ago Mr. P. O’Brien asked whether the Government would prosecute the poet Swinburne for his poem in Je Fortnightly Review, which, he said, was grossly calcu- lated to incite the murder of the Tsar. He was proceeding tv read the poem when the Speaker called him to order, saying that Parliament could not control the poems of Swinburne—a remark which was received with laughter.
It is mentioned by the New York Sun that the United States are now second among civilized countries with respect to population, according to the following figures :—Russian Empire, 113,354,649; United States, 64,000,000; Germany, 46,- 852,450; Austria-Hungary, 40,464,808; France, 38,218,903; Great Britain and Ire- land, 35,246,633; Italy, 28,460,000; Spain, 17,560,246. [t must borne in mind, however, that while the census of the Unit- ed States has just been taken, the popula- tion of the other countries is given accord- ing to much less recent enumerations, some as old as 1881. Preparations are now be- ing made for a new census of the British Islands.

It takes more religion to hold «a man level in a horse trade than it does to make him shout at a camp meeting.—The Ram's Horn.
‘**’Tis hard to part,” sadly remarked the man with a bald crown surmounted by three little whisps of hair..-—Somerville Journal,
‘**Well Uncle Israel, how did you get on with your farming this year?’ Uncle Is- rael—‘‘I didn’t make nothin, marster You see, mean’ de boss was workin’ on sheers. I ’greed to do de farmin’ for harf de crap, an’ I didn’t make but harf a crap, dis year, an’ so, in course, I didn’t git nothin’.”— Harper's Weekly.
The corn crop of Indiana will be very nearly a failure, but the people will find compensation in the fact that they can make a hole in the ground with a stick and kindle a fire from the natural gas that emerges. As corn has become recognized as an article of fuel, the supply of this natur- al agent will take the edge from the mis. fortune of the failure of the yield.—Detriot

Dyspepticure—lIs not a palliative, but acure; it first relieves, then controls, and finally entirely subdues the irritation and in- flammation of the stomach that causes indiges® tion and dyspepsia.
