The time when Quebec could DO called
the Gibraltar Of America and the key
10 the 81. Lawrence. and its much
vsunted citadel an impregnable fort
ress, IL long since past A series OF re-
markable admissions upon this score
has just been made In an interview
with New York Sum correspondent
by q high official Of the Canadian army.
The whole System Of Notifications ID
20 obsolete that they arc now positively
valueless, and under the modern
methods Of attack and defense II Il
certain that they would never be 70
formed. At = distance Of ten miles
from the citadel. whose Notifications,
designed by the duke Of Wellington,
cost England some twenty-five million
dollars, modern ships Of war could
silence and destroy the entire fortress
within an hour. The outer walls Of
Qnebec, which cost the French govern.
ment % much In treasure that one OF
the kings inquired Il they were built OF
gold, are even more worthless than
the works upon the citadel. Not hall
. dozen modern guns have been
mounted upon any Of Quebec's fortified.
tions within the last century. As q
fortress the whole place Ia being
gradually abandoned, und three hum
dred and atty Canadian troops stationed
In the citadel would be withdrawn, but
for the fact that the ample barrack nc.
commodution affords better facilities
for housing them than those to be had
elsewhere.
There are no possible means for pro-
tecting Quebec from the operations OF
q hostile fleet, the advance OF which
must be checked by naval defense ut
the mouth Of the st. Lawrence or In
the gulf.
One Of the results of the neglect Of
Quebcc's Notifications Of late Is that
tourists and visitors find II much
cnsier to obtain admission To
the citadel and its works, and
the once famous but now crum'
bling towers, than heretofore, In strik'
ing contrast to Halifax, where nc
foreigner Is permitted to view Its
splendid new system Of Notifications
and nobody but officers in uniform Z
admitted inside its citadel.

500 to insure family against any
serious consequences from an
attack of bowel complaint during
the year. there are many who would
feel II their duty to pay il; that
they could not afford to risk their

such an amount. Anyone can get
this insurance for - cents, that

neighborhood some one has died
from an attack of bowel complaint

ing to continue their subscriptions
from year to year.
To order periodicals. stopped

not prevent publishers from contin-
uing to send such periodicals until
the amount due is paid up in full.
There is but one way to avoid
mourning liability for newspapers

refuse such literature and order II

have done this and have proof of It,
you may avoid judgment being
rendered against you when suit 10

No responsible man will allow,

have judgment and costs rendered

make defense or settle an account
is before the case gets into court.
When once judgment is entered,
