No. 1, Lorne, Ont, "For over three years, I was confined to bed. with Rheumatism. During that time, I had treatment from a number of doctors, and tried nearly everything I saw advertised to cure Rheumatism, without receiving any benefit. Finally, I decided to try `Fruit-a- tives". Before I had used half a box, I noticed an improvement ; the pain was not so severe, and the swelling started to go down. I continued taking this fruit me- d./eine, improving all the time, and now I can walk about two miles and do light chores about the place". ALEXANDER MUNRO. 50e. a box, 6 for $2.50, trial size 250.

'Pin school children rmiced . enough murrey to give 2 splendid teas. These were the best meals I have had in the hospital. The money was given to two ladies who for 4 years have giv- en the boys of this ward tea every Sunday. They knew just what to buy, so it was a real treat. We had another original idea conte from the school, The Principal went to each room and told the children the boys in hospital bad no sugar and asked each one to bring some, In this way he collected enough to give us each a half pound. It seems most of my mail for the past 3 weeks has been sent to the Canadian hospital at Bexhill. They have a bright bunch iu the Post Office here, one would think that 5 months was plenty of time for them to learn where I arn, Since I made a com- plaint I have received considerable mail including 3 parcels and bundles of papers. Your parcel arrived about a week ago and was as good as gold. The apples were good, the cakes fine hut the best of all was the butter. No substitute takes the place of butter for me. All parcels containing goods in which is sugar have to go to the Customs officer to be assessed. So far I have not been taxed. Parcels nurses receive roust have Customs charges paid. It hardly seems right. They are in the auny doing their bit the same as we chaps and if ours come free why not the others P In the Globe you sent I saw IV. H. Fraser's, M. P, P., picture.

Yours truly, RALPH SHAW, Varsity Man on North Sea Trawler The following refers to a son of Rev. W. G. Hanna, 13. D., formerly of this locality, now of Toronto, and will be of interest to inimerous old friends in Huron County :— The war has called University men to remarkable tasks. The following is an extract from a letter recently re- ceived by Principal Hutton from SV. G. Hanna, 13. A., (U)'11. Mr. Hanna has since been promoted to the rank of Sub-Lieutentant R, N. V. R. "The trawlers and drifters, on which I spent the Winter, are small boats. The trawlers are rarely over 120 feet long and the drifters about 80. The quarters on hotrod are necessarily nar- row and the convenieuees few, The skipper, mate, engineers and cook sleep in bunks ranged rancid a little cabin aft, the centre of which is fully occupied by the mess table. The six men in the crew live in more crowded quarters forward. The bulk of the space is taken up by the engine room and coal bunkers, Many of the boats were fishing boats in peace time ; now they are at a more 8000113 game. They are sea- worthy ; too seaworthy for some land editors, and also for the Germans. They are out iu all weathers, perform- ing all sorts of duties, patrol, convoy, mine -sweeping, sub -hunting, They ate our "wooden walls" ; literally in some cases, for many drifters are built of wood ; besides they do the bulk of the work. They are the work- taday navy at the other end of the scale from the Grand Fleet. They ate perhaps the best, and undoubtedly the quickest way of becoming acquainted with the sea in all its moods—inti- mately acquainted in fact, for a cool caress down the back of the neck is often the only introduction. The boats are small and ride every wave. In calm weather, the gentle motion and the swish at the bow called to mind the” description at the close of one of the books of the Odyssey, evhere the men shove off from Ithaca at dusk, sail with a fair wind all night, the bow plashing in the waves, and at dawn push their prow on the sandy shore, The other scene, a trawler of drifter in a gale, I will not attempt to describe by any such reference lest I should become entangled trying to mount Neptune on Pegasus, I will say this, however, that profanity is heard at times and not without cause. When, for inattinee, the dinner has glided from table to deck between mouthfnlls or When a Oanitclian with a College education, propped against the edge otitis bunk, neither sitting nor standing, vainly endeavors to draw on hie trousers, then surely strong lan- guage is justiflsd. The boats are manned by fishermen, rather a class by themselves, different from the rest of the English people. The skipper of a drifter I was on, an Oast Ooast'herring catcher, wits typi. cal. He feared nothing on land or water, and used to • hunt up special ,obs of paintingfor Slioday afternoon, Jobs to antero tats ,Iudepeudeuao, On When the Titanic was sunk, The 'Toronto Daily Star rushed seven members of the staff to New York to "cover" the story. When Ulster threatened rebellion, three Star men travelled 4,000 miles to get the facts. When the Halifax explosion occurred, a small army of photographers and writers went to get the story. The Star policy is to cover big events in a big way. To cover the war meant not only to tell what was happening every hour, but to explain the; signi- ficance of each event. The occasion demanded skilled men; correspondents who could get news and interpret it, and others—war experts—who could piece together the happenings on the battlefields and in the capitals and weigh them all for the benefit of the reader. The Toronto Daily Star Has the Latest News Service in Ontario Of such experts, Hillaire Belloc, was the most noted in Great Britain, and Frank H. Simonds in America. So because The Toronto Daily Star "covers big events in a big- way," it retained these two foremost reviewers to interpret the strategy and politics of war. The Daily Star's Peace Conference despatches are exceptionally complete. The service of the Canadian Press and the Canadian Associated Press --alone considered sufficient by many Canadian news- papers—are supplemented in The Star by cables from the following and other exclusive correspon- dents: E. Percy Noel Webb Miller Paul Scott Mower Edgar Ansel Mowrer "Windermere" John de Gandt Henry T. Wood William H. Erayden Lacey Amy In the Capitals of Europe Lowell Mellett Paul Ayres Rockwell Junius B. Wood A. R. Decker (In London) Edward Price Bell T. Murphy W. J. L. Kiehl Ernest W. Clement Rosamond Boultbee William Philip Simms Frank J. Taylor Fred S. Ferguson F. A. McKenzie Edward L. Keen Eunice Tietjens Rene Feibeiman William R. Giles Thomas Geggie and the full service of the United Press and of the "Chicago News." The Toronto Daily Star readers are assured not only first news of what is happening in the world, but clear and authoritative exl'lana- tions as to what the happenings mean.
