Days of Rest

WHEN the excitement of departure is over, the last good-bye said, and the ship has slipped from her berth and is steaming downstream, worries and ties will grow indistinct as the little waving figures on the crowded pier soon fade away altogether.

Seven, long, glorious days, wherein to rest and doze and dream—or if you care, to play. Passengers have many nights to enjoy the deep-health-giving sleep that the salt breezes bring in the luxurious comfort of your cabin. New friends, pleasant conversation, dancing on a broad, smooth deck in the moonlight—All these joys will be yours.

Crossing the ocean once on a Canadian Pacific Cabin Class Steamship means realizing that you have found the ideal way to travel and understanding why these vessels are so popular with experienced travelers. Your trip will reveal what comfort can be, and you will want to go the same way the next time and the next.

Cabin Class ships are preferred not only for the pleasant company and good fellowship but because the rates are reasonable—only slightly more than the regular second class fares on ships of two classes of cabin accommodation.

These vessels are modern, specially built for the cabin class service, and furnished artistically with an appreciation of the highest degree of comfort.

During the summer months, the eastbound sailings are from Montreal and Quebec. On the smooth waters of St. Lawrence, which is bordered by quaint French-Canadian villages and picturesque farms, passengers have two days in which to find their sea legs before the ships put out on the open sea. Sailings during the winter are from Saint John, N.B., by the shortest sea route to Europe.
