To Awaken

Coated tongue, aching head, biliousness,
indigestion, constipation alternating with loose

The French in America.

Echoes of the recent celebration Of
the Champlain tercentenary are sim
heard in the land The New York
Post notes the fact that the Cham
plain celebration drew attention TO
one side OF French genius which An
glo-Saxons have been wont to slight
| II realizes that the story of the French
in the New World is more thrilling,
more compact OF historical romance,
than that OF the English, and ii is re-
minded of the hardihood of the old
seamen who sailed the st. Lawrence,
through the perusal in the London Out
look of an article on The Seaside
Life of France The London Jour
nalist has at last discovered that
Trouville does not sum up the subject
in one word. He writes, presumably
of the Breton sailors who were later
to exploit the Canadian fisheries;
"As early as the thirteenth century
these simple and hardy sailors car
ried on an enormous trade. Their
fleets traversed every sea. One cap
tured the Canaries, another merchant
squadron sailed up the Tagus and
bearded the King of Portugal in his
capital II was they who
opened the fur trade in Canada and
establihed a European colony in Sen
egal; and even now the men travel
TO the uttermost parts OF the earth,
and the women take their full share
in the varied life of the great sea
port towns and little fishing villages
of the country"
The events of the past few years
have emphasized the prominence OF
the part taken by Jacques Cartier
discoverer of the st. Lawrence, Pere
Jacques Marquette. Louis Joliet, who
discovered that the Mississippi river
flowed to the Gulf of Mexico and not
to the Pacific, Sieur De La Sale VINO
gave the name of his king to Loulsi-
ana, and other French explorers, III
connection with the early develop
ment of the American continent.
In our own Champlain valley names
of various islands and rivers and his
toric spots, bear testimony TO the
early visits and colonizing work OF
French navigators, and the lapse OF
centuries and the domination of an
other race have not served to obliter-
ate traces of these pioneers OF civil
ization and progress in a new world.
On the other hand the descendants OF
these men and their colleagues have
continued to constitute large fac
tor in the development of the Ameri-
can continent.
1t is a remarkable tribute TO the
French that while the British were
able to acquire control of Canada
through force of military power and
skill. they should nevertheless con-
tinue to dominate that country to
very large degree even to the point
of furnishing its present brilliant pre-
mier as well as the heads OF dinerent
of government. The
British were victorious in war but
the French have triumphed in peace.
So in this country, the French have
some of our most success
ful and useful citizens, and in the Uni
ted States as well as in Canada the
of the early French explorers
have fallen upon worthy shoulders
