known tailoring establishment of D. Morgan, now occupying this historic corner, is always happy to show visitors the upper room, which was the scene of that memorable declaration. Here is a good place to linger and enjoy a recital from an inexhaustible fund of historic anecdote or narrative of this unique and genial public-spirited citizen.

At the next corner (Buade Street), on the northern façade of which is the original tablet of the Golden Dog, is the Post Office. This building occupies the historic site of a former residence of M. Philibert, an honorable Bourjaise merchant, frequently referred to as "A Friend of the People," whose trade was largely curtailed by the unscrupulous interference of Bigot, the French Intendant, who was at the head of the Court Chartered Commercial "Grande Company."

After fruitless appeals to the Court for the privilege to conduct his own business without the interference of the Grande Company, M. Philibert placed over his door a gilded sculptured tablet of the figure of a crouching dog gnawing a bone, and underneath the French inscription, which translated reads:

"I am a dog gnawing a bone.

While I gnaw I take my repose.

The time will come, though not yet,

When I will bite him who now bites me."

Further on, opposite the City Hall, is the old French Cathedral (Basilica), which is very interesting-one of the sights and contains notable paintings of the old masters, mostly French-among others a fine Van Dyke. Tourists enjoy the unique and impressive service here, fine music being a prominent feature.

Mr. Kirby's novel, "Chien D'Or, or Golden Dog," describes in a very interesting style of romance the history of this, which resulted in the assassination of M. Philibert.

Some of the illustrations used in this article are supplied by the art souvenir publishing house of James Bayne Company, Grand Rapids, Mich., from whom can be obtained photographic and pictorial souvenirs of many points of tourist interest, souvenir postal cards, booklets, etc., of the St. Lawrence Region and elsewhere.

Opposite the Basilica is the well-known fur establishment of Holt, Renfew & Co., wherein prevails the same cordiality peculiar to Quebec, and here is every kind of fur, also Indian novelty, fascinating to the visitor.

About nine miles out from Quebec is found the worldrenowned Falls of Montmorency, reached by a most excellent electric express service of the Quebec Railway, Light & Power Co.'s line. Here may be seen a natural waterfall of surpassing beauty. Not the mighty, storming impression of a Niagara, but here is a touch of the art in nature, greater than even a Longfellow could describe. Like a huge coliseum, with walls reaching up heavenward, is the basin, over the edge of which falls a great volume of water from a height of 300 feet. So graceful is the effect that the scene seems to be impersonated and the falls become the flowing hair of a goddess, and, where the shades of rocks show through in darker streaks, there is a suggestion of a lingering tinge of color in this profusion of silvery hair.

Surrounding these falls are extensive park grounds, the old estate of the Duke of Kent when formerly governor. Further down the line is the Mecca of many pilgrimages, Ste. Anne de Beaupre, where many miracles have been wrought.

At every turn the traveler is almost bewildered in the number of things he has not had time to see-things he has missed but he will not fail to run down the line of the Quebec and Lake St. John Railway, passing out from Quebec, over the new steel bridge, across the St. Charles River, and then off to the north, way up to Lake St. John; thence down to Chicoutimi, on the Saguenay River, where connection is made with the steamers of the Richelieu & Ontario Navigation Co. for a change of travel back to Quebec,- yes, and way up the St. Lawrence to Kingston, if he chooses. The rail route out of Quebec to Lake St. John is
