WHERE TO GO.

House, W. B. McLean; Port Cockburn, H. 

 Fraser & Sons, are the most important 

 points. From one end to the other, sal- 

 mon trout, black bass and pickerel are 

 abundant, while on the West side of the 

 lake are hunting grounds unexcelled any- 

 where. Here are the famous Crane and 

 Blackstone lakes, for which the Robinson 

 Brothers, of Port Cockburn, are guides. I 

 have never met a sportsman who came 

 away from those waters disappointed, and 

 many visit them each year. 



North of Port Cockburn lies a sparsely 

 settled country, dotted over with small 

 lakes, each abounding with fish of the 

 choicest varieties, and surrounding these 



waters are woods that hold our noblest 

 game birds and animals. 



Hotels charge $2 a day down to $5 a 

 week, the majority being $1 a day. Sum- 

 mer boarding houses charge $5 to $3.50 a 

 week. Those are rates during June, July 

 and August, but before and after those 

 months the prices are much -reduced. 

 Guides range $1.50 to $1 a day. Some in- 

 clude dogs and canoe or boat in their fee, 

 while others charge extra, usually 25 to 50 

 cents a day. Boats and canoes average $5 

 a month, or $2.50 a week. 



The glorious region of Muskoka, which 

 is an apt derivation of an Indian word 

 meaning clear-sky-land, is indeed a para- 

 dise for sportsmen.

AFTER THE DAY'S SPORT. 



"Gee whiz !" exclaimed the first microbe, 

 "you look fierce." 



"Don't I?" replied the crippled one. "I 

 deserve a pension. The Philippine war's 

 responsible for my condition." 



"O, come off!" 



"Fact. I got mixed up in a kiss be- 

 tween a returned soldier and his best girl."

"How would you like to have Dewey's 

 job?" asked one of Senator Pullard's con- 

 stituents. 



"Some land office would be more to my 

 taste," replied the eminent statesman. 



"Well, I reckon that's so," rejoined the 

 constituent. "You haven't done anything 

 but land offices ever since I've known you."
