patriotism is OF a peculiar sort. in
that it does not SAVIOR of allegiance
| TO France nor concern for the welfare
| of Canada, but is measured by the
! mere ambition TO preserve French DOM
nance in the province of Quebec.
The one mark of the habitant is his
love of home. The Grand Trunk rail
wa for several hundred miles east of
Montreal has a large local otronage,
which is designated as the moccasin
trade. y The French Canadian who is
employed away from his birthplace
will spend his last cent to visit the
homcfolks. The reluctance to sever
home ties is shown in the character of
The farms, which are merely long lanes,
with rows of houses at the ends. When
the eldest son marries, the father
splits the home place and gives the
youth slice of land. The sons often
become so numerous and the slices so
thin that in order to continue the null
tiplication quartenng process is nee
essary.
Matrlmony is an honored institution
among the habitant folk, and they pre-
serve the European custom according
TO which parents settle a sum of money
on children when they marry Illus
trative of this point there is story
about Yankee farmer who had mar
ried a French girl, and settled in one
of the back districts of Quebec. Al
though he had lived there for years,
and his children had grown up among
his French neighbors, this man re-
tanned enough of his American spirit
to refuse to offer n cash bonus TO get
his girls married OFF, Consequently
they threatened TO become drug on
the market. Finally he relented and
offered $500 with each one.
AT once came Pierre, a big. lumber
ing lout, who said: ~ ear you give Fl ,
'ondred dollars wild Maric9' He was
reluctantly told that such was the offer.
ear you give Fl 'ondred dollars
with ,Iulie7" He was told the same
amount went with julio, "Woll. mon
sieur. said Pierre, 81 tink l III take
dc bot o 'em. " The Yankee was so
indignant a this attempt to Joke about
such serious matter that he withdrew
his offer at once, and his girls were
forced to wait until they could find
husbands who were willing TO take
them for themselves alone.
popular tradition among the
French Canadians is that relating to
- La Chasse-Galerie.' This tells how
the shantymen snowbound in the north
ern woods used to make a contract with
the devil to take them home in the
night for a brief visit TO their wives
and sweethearts. These trips were
made In the air in bark canoes. The
arrangement was desperate one, such
as no pious shsntyman would enter
into. Only profane and sacrilegious
characters would venture TO take such
risk. The devil gave them the power
to navigate the air for that one night,
with the understanding that if the
name OF God was mentioned. or
church steeple was touched during the
flight that he should have their souls
for torture. There is many an old
timer who will solemnly affirm that he
has seen the canoes passing overhead,
and that he has heard the reckless dare
devils hsndylng each other as they
piled their paddles IN the air.

A PUBLIC BENEFIT.

We're giving the public benefit as we have done before at this time of year. All the balance of stock of the best seasons business in our history will be closed out at 8 reduction of fully one-third. Davis & Savard, at the corner of Main and Fairfield ave- nue, Bridgeport, don't believe in car rying stock over from one season to the next. They prefer to clean it up while it is new and fresh and give you the benefit of clearance sale prices. You can save money and make money; there's lots of time to wear these goods this season and they are equally good for next season with big dividend on your investment. Mems, boys, youths and children's clothing, hats, caps, sweaters, in fact most anything you need, at cut prices for good quality This is not a half way sale. Not 8 price-redueing sale as it is usually done with the prices marked up and then down again-it's genuine complete clearance sale.@ Davis & Savard. M air street and Fairfield avenue, Bridge port.
