Improvements at the Hotel Davies. Extensive | The measure of prosperity attending the | Hotel Davies is evidenced by the improve- | ments that it has been found necessary to | make of late as well as by the changes it ‘nded to make next year. This year, although tourist travel in this direction bas not been as extensive as usual, the Hotel Davies has heen Jargely patronized, | and all the guests have been well pleased | with the treatment they received. This is is 1D in accordance with the eternal fitness of things, for in Mr. and M-s. Davies they have an ideal host and hostess, while Mr. Jourke, the courteous and efficient clerk ir | always at hispost and ever ready to do what is right by patrons of the house. The alterations and improvements made to the horel thie year have taken the best part of the season to perfect, and they are greatly appreciated by the travelling | public. That portion of the house bitherto used as a dining room has been cor verted intoan office and smokivg and writiog room combined, and is large and well fitted throughout. The main entrance to this part of the building is yestibuled, and the room is lighted by large plate glass windows. The clerk’s desk is directly oppositethe door, and has a private offi ze i aojoioing. [he portion of the hotel which former- ly served for office and other purposes has been set apartfor the especial use of the ladies, and the guest of former years would hardly recogn ze it so material is the change that has been made. Ihe old writing room is now the general reception room, and the gentlemen’s parlor has been en- larged ond fitted up as a ladies’ parlor. W hat was formerly the ladies’ parior has been fitted up for sleeping spartments, some of the rooms being en suite. The new ladies’ parler is done in blue. The new dining room is in the rear of the office, and will accommodate about 110 guests. Theceiling is finished in natural wood, and is so trussed-as to doaway with the necessity for posts. The wainscotting is also in natural wood, and stands about four feet from the floor. Above the wain- scotting and extending around the room is a hunting scene cleverly painted on canvas by Miss Chisholm. There is au open fire place in the northern section of the dining room, surmountivg which is a large mirror. The sideboard is built into the wall on the southern side. The wiodowsare all of stained glass. The finishings throughout are of the best des- cription, and the cuisine is in keeping. Although the new dining room ranks with the handsomest and best-equipped in the provinces. The carving room is off the dining room, and is fitted with steam carving table aad the latest improvements in thatline. The kitchen 18 on the floor above the dining room. The wails and ceilings have been artis- tically painted and papered by Messrs Taylor & Stentiford, and all the wood work in connection with the ehanges and ad- ditions made was performed by Lowe Bros. The houee is lighted throughout by eiec- tricity, and the heating is by steam. The Hotel Davies, all things considered, was never in a better position to accommo. date the public than it is at present, and next year it is intended to build out to the corner with a view to adding a goodly num- ber of bedrooms to its equipment. — HEROES WANTED. “T won't vote for the Scott Act; but [ll vote for prohibition every time.” How many times bas the temperance Ccanvasser heardthis. How many thousands out- wardly courting recognition in temperance rauks have used this excuse to cover up 4 secret compromiee with the liquor evil. It has even dove service tothe direct ad- herents of the liquor traffic who were voluble in adoration of “total prohibition” when it was not an issue. Any person can be valiant against an absent force, but it takes a hero to confront a present danger. ¥ .ur manhood is now to be put to the test. The question of prohibition,pure and simple, is now before you. Are you going to face it like a man and redeem your oft- repeated utterance or are you wobbling around afer some lame excuse to cater to the influence and at the same time preserve | @ se.rblance of respectability. The ques. tion is put before you in eych a peculiar the other, Whether you vote or not your vote counts. There will be no room in this plebiscite for the excuse “I didn’t vote atall.” Youdid. There is only one way to show approval of prohibition. That is by marking it#oon the ballot. If you fail to go tothe polls and mark your bal- lot for prohibition on the 29th inst, your vote will be counted as against moral re- form, pure homes and virtue just as surely as the fates that are around you and just as surely as if you had recorded your ballot directly in favor of the liquor evil. Will you be a herotrue to your best con- victione and your oft-repeated utteranca, “I won’t vote Scott Act; but I will vote prohibition.” —_—_-_—_ + o-e — -____—- —The St John Sun bits the nail upon the head when, referring to the popular ovation given Sir Charles ‘lupper at Cape Breton, it says that the people “reccgnize that some men are greater without office and out of power than cthers are with the whole macninery and influence of an administration behind them.” SES The news from all parts of the Island is that everyone is coming to town to tke races.

I do see the man, W ho is the man? He is a business man, W hat is a busine-s man? He is a man who makes money by sup- plying the wants of people. Does he always make money ? If he’s agocod business man he does. How does he doit? By advertising. W hat’s advertising ? I.’s the biggest thing on earth in a busi- nest, ls it bigger than the business ? Yes, because the business couldn’t live without it. Is it bigger than the business man? Yes, for it keeps him bumping himself. thing? good; but what is this wonderful It is the everlasting and perpetual vre- senting of those who wish to buy 4 clear statement of what there is to sell. Why must it be so everlasting and per-~ petual ? Because people’s wants are that kind and the advertising must match the wants of those to whom it appeals. Is there no let up? Yes, when the people let up on wanting to buy. But isn’t it expensive ? Not at all. My! Do they everlastingly and perpet- ually present, and charge nothing for it? Ub, no! they charge, of course, but for every dollar paid out, from ten dollars toa thousand c)>me back. How is this advertising done ? ‘here are ways and ways of doing it, All good ? Yes, but some are better than others. What is the best way ? The newspapers. Why newspapers ? Because they go farther and hold on longer. Why do they? Their subscribers make them. Do all business men advertise ? T hose who know the most do. But some are successful who do not? Yes, just as there are some people saved from a wreck in which ninety-nine per cent.are killed. It’s their luck, not their wisdom or their own efforte.—Fame. ee AT THE TARGETS. Scores Showing the Work Done by the Ottawa Team.
