The grass at your feet is delight.
fully real and sweet woody smells
pervades the whole building.
Some admire this as the pref.
TEST of the exhibits but there is
bound to be the widest difference
of opinion, for all the hundreds of
thousands that visit the fai. each
is bound to find the n most in
teresting or beautiful thing to
him or her. For instance, the
Butterick Pattern display in the
Palace of the Varied Industries
which consists of miniture lady
dolls dressed in the latest modes
IN beautiful constructed gowns of
silk or wool, all made in the daint-
lest possible stitchery, with hats
to suit. This display finds many
admirers and little girls are n
tranced by these dainty groups.
One cannot enter the Canadian
building without being impressed,
no matter what the age or occupa-
ton of the visitor may be. You
enter and leave by the same en-
trance and are invited to "Please
keep to the left" which we did, of
course, and found ourselves gaz-
ing into the depth of a valley or
canyon with all the trees, grass,
water and rocks 30 near you can
touch them in the foreground with
the scenery melting away in the
distance into Paintings exquisitly
real in execution Stuffed ami
mails and birds are everywhere in
their native surroundings. Buff
alos gaze at you from shaggy
faces, while elk stand nearby, coy
otes skelk among the shrubbery
and a big black bear is seer COM
ing out from the depths of great
standing timber, real green timber.
Another is playing with a cub, it
rolls over in the dirt, while two
immense grizzlies are seen in
characteristic positions, badgers
and other small denizens of the
wilds abound and you think you
have seen the last when you look
at the contented looking fat beav-
ers, real live ones, busily working
at a never finished task in a pond.
Then the great wheat fields of
Canada are shown, with dozens
of prairie chickens enjoying the
grain. Cozy looking homes and
towns and valleys, great power
plants with rivers and boats, grain
elevators loading trains that move
by busily, and you are shown
Dawson City under the midnight
sun. Passing on still to the left
left, we saw the fruit display, with
apples the principle thing, Over
thirty varieties are shown in a
very large exhibit. Tons of ap-
Piles are heaped in baskets, each
apple a prize beauty and piled
about on the grass. They blend
in with a heap of the fruit painted
on canvas which shows a scene in
an orchard completing a most de-
lightful picture. both real and
artifcial-and what smells sweeter
than ripe apples, anyway
One can, by no means, stop here
for there is a most interesting and
wonderful exhibit of minerals and
ores, and fish and the canning in
dustries. Then up the central cor
rider is the most interesting and
artistic display of coats of skins,
seals, etc landscape paintings and
MIXTURE homes that one can i'm
agine, and all entirely executed in
the seeds and grains grown in
Canada. Imagine, if you can, 8
home with buildings aud wheat
fields or orchards in miniture and
the scenery with mountains, rocks,
trees and water, with animals il
the background apparently paint,
ed with all the fgurment a master
could desire and all of the differ.
