Perhaps that Is because it is sprawled over 4' large area, but on the whole, if you do not view it from a distance, the impression it creates is one of majesty, a dignity and iso- Iation which befits the rank of kings, and it is safe to say that this edifice will soon find 'its place on the lst of the curious sight-seers. Without, the impression fs majes- tie. Within, it is one of splendor, with its high ceilings, its corridors, Its massive reception hall, which reaches the full three-storeys in height and over-reigning it a double tier of bal- conles, with its ball-room which for grandevr will not be equaled any- where in the whole city and which for the brilliance of the gatherings it must shelter through the future years will be rivaled only by a Rideau Hall or a Windsor Castle. Beneath that red-shingled roof there will be har- bored all the outward expression of the French instinct for magnificence. As one enters by way of the porte- cochere he finds himself in a spa- clous reception room, with three ways to turn. Te the left is tuat mayster- fous chain of offices with its brass- buttoned lackeys, through which one must pass before he can finally gain audience with his Honor, the Lieuteny ant-Governor, whose business office' will be located in the extreme south- west wing. A large, airy room, flood- ed with sunlight, is that official do- main, and scarcely less pretentious is the apartment of the secretary. If one turned {0 the right, he would find the suite for official receptions, three large eooms, any one of which might accommodate a moderate family, but if the sight-seer went straight ahead, inte the main corrider,- which runs traverse of the building from north to south, he would find facing him thé chief reception hall, large as the Pit of a theatre, capable of accommo- dating hundreds, From this ball, which is to be draped in the most modern manner, lead spacious steps which end In the tangle of rooms above, or open upon fi) the corridors from which doubtless DAVID HALL . és 'gnoCK wt. | Phone 835 or 836. to Gain 10 to 30 Lbs. , Perinanent Flesh I undevelo men 'women everywhere urd heat do "1 can't understand. why 1 do } at. 1 oy lenty Of good, Shing Food." be season is Just or not get fat, no matter veh or ol unless your di- assimilate the fat- g elements oi your food in- -enty by fifty, "| which are designe: thousands of curious foik will some day look down upon gay scened.

To reach the dining dcpartment. one must cross the main reception hall, and there he will find either the pr'vite dining room of the Lieutenu t-Governor's family, or the state dining hall, built upon a scale to accommodate a hun- dred guests or more.
