A GODERICH FATHER
WRITES HiS SOLDIER SON.
(iodericb, Ont., June 19.
DEAR t3oN,-1 have just had a nbat
with a couple of fellows who are unde-
cided sato whether to enlist with the
"flying corps" or the "ar-
tillery." Ah 1 Son. they feel that
comet iptiou is upon then,. Yes, and
it looks as if it were at this lima of
writing. Thr big argument 1s going
on in the Federal Parliament at full
swing, while the mothers, the wives
and the sweethearts of those who have
gone -and especially of those who
Metre gone never to return -are pray-
ing that God will speed the day when
conscription of wen for the war may
he at hand, thet these, the cream and
Rower of Canada, may not have died
in vain. There is considerable aglta•
tion just now, too, as to the conscrip-
tion of wealth. Yrs, so far as I aw
concerned -which is not very far -in
the latter suggestion, I em out for
that also. It is very true that just as
there have teen those who were slow
to offer themselves and theirs in the
great cause of liberty and freedom,
and thst the highest principles known
to mortahl y may predominate in the
ages yet to come, so there have leen
and ate those today who heeitate a
good many tenet) bettors they dig
down in their "jeans." It won't do.
Son. No ! It simply won't, that's all.
The men who have the wealth would
not have had it were it net. for the
great democracy in which they have
lived, do live and prosper. And of it
was on Centedian soil that they won
their fortune and Canada was and is
good enough to live and prosper in,
surely jn the face of all that stands for
the great banner of liberty they can
now afford to spend that • subetane
that -the world may be saved.
Well, tion, we are having elegant
weather and how the garden does
grow. The vegatehles-well, you can
almost see thew grow, end it Wight
be said that the weeds'' are coming
along Just about ten times as fast, as
anything else. Let me tell you, SOD,
Chat the sweat does roll almost in a
stream, but it is a noble work, and we
at twine are out to show the lads over-
seas that if we can help it they shall
never wait for food as long as the
sit uggle shall last.
Yrs, I .rut you a copy of The Signal
not' week. By the wry. note Prid•
tlsn't "ad.' Pridham the tailor might
altno-t. 1w termed the "Wait Mason"
of Goderich. Yo(u asked ab nit A. M.
Polley -yes: hes 0. K. He is anxious-
ly awriting.ths day of the next gen-
eral election -just to see how badly
tbe Borden Adminjntration will get
whipped. Fellow-omeere of the late
Lieut. A. (i• Nisbet have written to
say how Much hes death was regretted.
"Scotty" was a fine n,lrcimeo of man-
hood; tion, and will be greatly missed
in Goderich in the days to come : but
missed as he may be, and while the
hours foesthose who knew him best
and loved him most may 'deettt like
weeks and almost years as they pass,
there is the disine consolation, that
"(;rester love bath no man than this,
that he lay down his life for another."
You asked how the subscribers to
the various war funds were paying up.
\Nell, to be brief, some ere coming to
the mark toll right, while others- you
know the other kind -the fellow who
likes to get his "name down," but who
is always "shy" of funds when the
call for collection conies, well, "rte' es
a trifle slow in settling. Then, too, as
you know, we Neve an occasional
"bard shell" here who, as Billy Sun-
day says, when he puts a dime on the
collection plate hums the tune, "God
be with you till we meet again."
Several cave to town again this
year on the steamer Greyhound and
likewise did several go to Detroit
aboard her. I would have liked to go,
too, hut 1 felt that there are thousands
in France who would also have appre-
ciated the trip -but that couldn't be -
so 1 also stayed at house.
'1 he talk of the hour is "whatclass
1',are you in 'r" Ther} are ten classes in
the proposed conscription bill alto-
gether. but it is generally conceded
„that the first three will lake all that
will be required to put Fritz and his
murderers to the wall. Some of the
`younger married men are priding
themselves that they are aboye the cine for childho.xi ailments.

Altnoet every women et the head of

care of ber little oars. the wort about
the house all contribute to these
worries. Most of them may be too
small to notice en hour atterwatdi,
but they constitute a constant strain
that affects the blood and the

of wrinkles which every women
dreads. To thoee thus afflicted Dr.

cure : a restoration of color to the
cheeks, brightness to the eye. a hearty
appetite and a sense of freedom from
weariness.. Among the many thou-

found new health and strength through
these pills is Mrs G. Strasser. Acton
