member Roy Thomson. sat of Mr. Fred
Thomson (now of Southampton), tholtdt
he was only a small boy when the famlly
lived in Goderich. 'Kuy is now with the
Canadian troops in Sibrna, and his aunt.
Mrs. Walters. of town, kufdly allows The
Signal to publish one of his letters from
that tar country.
February 1st. 1919.
Dear Aunt Ada. -You no doubt have
r eceived my letter written before we left
Victoria We loaded on to the S. S. Pro-
testiano, and had a fair trip across.
There was quite a lot of wind at times
and one heavy blow. One young chap
was buried at sea. Ile gut caught be-
tween a refrigerator which had broken
loose and a hatcMconbing, and lived
Only a very short time afterwards. He
was buried the same afternoon. We had
also quite a number with .mall injuries
from falling and other causes.
After leaving the Canadian coast we
saw no land till we reached the Japanese
islands. which took us hfteen days from
Victoria. We passed between the north
and (he main island of their empire and
after crossing the Sea of Japan came to
the Manchurian coast. and you may be
sure we were glad to get across, as the
boat we came on was a freighter and not
ince. ded for passengers and the accommo-
dations were poor. We are now in a
Russian barracks a kw miles from .tadi-
vostte k and are quite warm and comfort-
able. I was down to the city yesterday
and took in some of the sights. and com
paring at with other cities it is very old
and a lot behind our times.
There are troops of many countries
here and none of us knows what will be
done with us. but if none of Siberia is
any better than what we see here I think
it would be wise to let the Bolshesiki, or
anyone who wants it, have it. 11 is bar-
ren and desolate. the only nice part being
II the climate, It has been .toady sunshine
all daylong every day since we came.
Of course it is cold. but not any colder
than I have seen in Canada. although
000 reports from the interior speak of very
cold weather.
a You can now address me as No.

"FRUIT -A -'HIVES" AMalately Pre -
rat. This Dangerous Coad.tia.
The chi(/' tone of poor health is
our neglect of the bowels. Waste
matter, instead of passing from the
lower intestine regularly every day,
is allowed to remain there, generating
poisons which are absorbed by the
blood.
1n other words, a person who is
hat>ilually cuastipated, is poisoning
himself. We know now that Arlo-
rato.t-iceliow, due le eon -action of the
bowels, is dircrlly resfrowtrhle for
serious Kidney and Bladder Troubles;
that it upsets the Stomach, causes
Indigestion, Loss of Appetite w.1
Sleeplessness; that chronic Rheum-
atism, (.out, Pain In The Beek, aro

regular; and that Pimples, Rashes,

Permanent Leader for Province to Ire
('bo+ea
Toronto. March • 25. -While no an-
nouncement is anticipated before the end
of the present .ttecsion. It is understood
that a tentative decision has been arrived
at by the Liberals in the Legislature to
call a Provincial convention for the selec-
tion of a permanent leader of the party
in Ontario shortly after the Nouse Pro-
rogues. The date will probably be fixed
for about the end of May or early in
J une..
Present indications are that the Liber-
als of the Province will have to appont
delegates to attend two conventions for
ion of leaders. Latest advices
frorn Ottawa state that it is doubtful if a
I kaninlon convention will be held before
September.
it is stated that the plans of the Lib-
' eral members in the local House provide
for the holding of a convention altogether
separate from the Federal gathering. It
had been suggested some weeks ago that
the Provincial leader would he selected by
Ontario Literals at the same time they
were assisting in choosing a permanent
successor to Sir Wilfrid Launer.
Wm. Pr,udtoot. K. C.. M. P. P.. has
been the leader of the Liberal Opposition
in the Legislature for one session previous
t1 this. He is thoroughly in acc••rd wish
the calling of a convention after proroga-
tion. for he accepted the p0satian only in
a temporary capacity.
