celebraton, for a stop-over in that
line city will prove a pleasant rev
elation in many ways, besides af

into the third city of Canada, with
an area of 16,287 acres, of which
874 are laid out in magnificent
parks: 600 miles of streets, includ
ing 118 miles of bonlevsrds; 112
miles of street railways; is the
third largest retailing city in Cana
da with nearly 2,000 stores of
which the mammoth ’‘Eaton’s” and
“Hudson’s Bay* Company” are
known far and wide. The Hudson’s
Bay Company has recently estab-
eity boasts 876 factories emplm •
ing over 23,000 hands whose ar,
nual payroll is mare than *24,(iop
