T is predicted by the managers of the Exposition at San Francisco, California, which is to remain open to December 4, 1915, that because of the European war the attendance will be largely increased. American tourists, who customarily spend their annual vacation periods at one or more of the pleasure resorts on the European continent, to a great extent will be deterred Irom doing 80 this year, for the reason either that the war has ravaged and wiped out of existence their favorite ones, or else they are no longer easily accessible, even If they do not lie actua ly within It is also probable that only in a less degree tourists who are residents of Europe will be similarly affected, and an unusually large influx of these may be ex- MADE IN CANADA Woman's work 1s never done, but the woman who knows the nutritive value and culinary uses of SHREDDED WHEAT can find time for other duties, pleasures and obligations outside of the kitchen.

The finest salmon fishing in the world is found at Sicamous and every provision is made for the tourist by the guide at very little expense. A large part, if not all of this, is lost to one who travels to and from San Francisco by the more southerly routes; none of it need be misscd if one goes or comes back over the Canadian Pacific Rall way. - The accompanying pictures are merely slight glimpses of the beauties of the Canadian route, ---------- a The Key To Success Many a man owes his start in life to the purchase of an endowment policy.

The year previous to his death his | assistant, Glovanni Ferrini, made a | pianoforte, which became famous. It | was' bought by the Queen of Spain, | and by her bequeathed to the singer, | Farinelli. The fame of the Cristo- | fori invention soon spread through | Europe, and there were many inven- | tors to follow him, up to the time | that Sebastin Erard made vast im- | provements in the. construction of the instrument, almost revolutioniz- ing it. + Krard, at the-age of ™ 8, left Stras- burg, his native place, for Paris, where he bound himself apprentice to a clavichordmaker, soon proving himself so skillful as to excite the Jealousy of his master. They quar- reled and parted, and Sebastien en- tered the service of another const- ruetor of clavichords, who appreciai- ed his skill so much that he set him to make an instrument that was to surpass everything that had up to that time been done in this line. Young Sebastein accomplished the task with complete suecess, and when his master took the clavichord to the purchaser and was asked to explain the mechanism he was un- able to do so, and. was. obliged to confess that Erard had made it. This invention at once _procured the youthful mechanic the friendship of distinguished persons. The Duch- ess ity of her hoyse, which he ac- cepted, and it was for her that he made his first piano, being onal i on to his effort by having had one, German constructed brought un his notice. pronounced to be a distinet improve- ment upon the German instrument.
