A comment. 00 out Li•ip from Camp Norden to England and Bunte notes on our life here may perhaps prove 31 tlI-iti ng In you :— We left Camp on O ((ober 27th, taking the (i, P. R. at. 250, via Lindsay and Prlerboro but went through these at night so can't speak of them. October 28—Woke up hi the mnrn- Jng, train going full speed: Soon +re- rivetl at Montreal, crossed big bridge 1,1 miles in length, Victoria Jubilee bridge. Arrived nt n tittle village an oppn.ite side of bridge, where we post- ed 1etLeen, bought cards of different buildit/gs in Montreal. Train started agate, stopped at several small Flesch villages, the kids around the station couldn't talk a word of Englieh. The eouutry around here is mainly agri- cultural, the land is level and fenced off into long narrow fields. Don't see much ';tock. Buildings and balms are neatly all painted white, roofs are pecnl:,,Ily shaped and every thilig has alt Fre;trh nepect, We have stopped at Clamber,. Jut„ a French village, de- trained to go for a route march around the vin t„". We saw the Lig broken Quebec re edge, which the papers men- tioned ,r. Much. Entrain and start on Jour,.ey again. 29th—Still on train, \Vhen we woke up we were at Camp- bell tem New tlrunswick, where we had to Leet our watches on an hour. Everything seems more like Ontario, People speak English. Train star ted again anti we were at Newcastle in a short, time. \Ve arrived her,. about 2 o'clock ir, the afternoon, We detrain- ed and had a route match around Newcastle, Had church service In the park as ie is Sunday. \Ve saw the wireless e-r.paralus, own very high columns of iron structure and four wires str,'I.ehed from top of one to the top of Lb" other. These iron columns were supported by 0 shorter columns withguide wires strung from one to l'- 1 Entrained againand start- ed the other. nt t 30th—All nitre( we ed fol Halifax. were travelling parallel to the Chau- diere river, The eountry was very mountainous. Hills Lose up on either side of the track for hundreds of feet and the hills were thickly wooded, Scenery wasgrand. River gradually widened out as we got. nearer Monc- ton, N. B, We saw several fishing smacks and fishing nets. Houses small and roughly made. By the ap- pearance of the country and the lum- ber yards we paseed,it is a great lum- bering county. Arrived at Moncton, N. 13. about 4 o'clock where we posted mail, stayed about 10 minutes, and then we pulled nut. for Halifax, where we arrived at 6 30. When we got to Halifax NYS fouurl that the 108th Ox- fords and 133rd J'laklinrnnds were there ahead of us, but we were the first to detrain and go aboard the ship, When we detrained we matched into the Dominion shipping building, which is a bigcetnent building, After waiting for about 3 hours we boarded the ship te. S. Lapland, a White Star Liner. We, the machine gun section, a were put. into first -elms berths, the same as the officers and N. G. O's had. They are well fitted up aru J you don't get half as much rocking as you do ill 2nd and 3rd class. Some of the bat- talion was put away down in the steerage and seine were put up in the fot'emot part of the ship, right up near the deck. We stayed in the dock until next morning, Tuesday. Woke up Tuesday and had breakfast, while I was eating a shiver ran all through the ship and we beard the steam whistle blow,then there was another shiver and te hip started to move. Steamed slowly out into the bay and then chopped l nchor, When I finish- ed h- e1 breakfast and vent an deck I could getrn direction as the boat not s y had partly t rtl turned around and it was hard to find nut what direction the dock lay in. Halifax lies nestled at all 1 from h the foot of a bighill and tem the bay y you get a good view of the whole city. In the bay there are several small islands all of which are strong natneal forts but to look at them you would e know that here as a fort near tt w thereThere were several liners nut ! in the hay to be filled with soldiers among them was the m'ttsier which is to take us acl'oee. We left Halifax at 4.30 p, rn, with all the boats in a line, As we were passing out the bay into the Atlantic we were cheered by the crew of the four funneled British battleship (H. M. S. Niobe.) We pass- ed through a long line of red life buoys grid when we reached the end the pilot WAS lowered int a row boat and rowed to shore. Ab 6 p. m. we 'oet sight of the light house and the ship was rocking in the swell. There were 4 transports and one cruiser. 'ithnrstlay, got tip early, cnuld not see anything but our other boats, and water. Dui not miss any meals al- though quite a few did. At noon we were 212 mites from shore. Friday, got up and Went on deck and lounged around all morning. In afternoon I saw the crew have life boat drill. Towa'd evening the boats all spread nut, °rosier in lead, At noon we 111d gone 280 miles, noon to noon. Satur- day, got up about 8 o'clock, too late for breakfast, Had boat drill in the morning and after dinner went to bed and slept all afternoon. Towards evening the sea began to get rough and it rained a little. We travelled 304 miles from neon to noon. Sunday, We got up early had breakfast and than search parade at 0.45. Chicken for dinner. Been in cold storage for v. Drs Salton The folic wing sketeb taken from the Winnipeg Free Press, refers to a former pastor of the Methodist choral], Brussels, who is well known in Ontario :— One of Winnipeg's most masterful pulpit orators is the pastor of Fort Rouge Methodist church, Rev. Dr. G. F. Salton. Dr. Salton has held many of the most important charges in Canada and at different times ha; been stationed !n EIamilton, St. Thomas, Stratford and Ottawa. Not only has he always been a popular preacher and a leader in all the phases of church work, but be has beeu actively interested in other movements and has several hobbles upon which he frequently gives entertaining lectures, Dr. batten was born in West Harte - pool, Durham, Eng. and received his early education in the Western academy, in which he afterwards became a teach- er. For four years he taught as assistant master in the large Wesleyan day school at Colne, Lancashire. In 1882, however, he carne to Canada and enter- ed the Methodist ministry in the same year. One of the tmportaot charges which Dr. Salton z on has held Is the Domrn- ( 4 o mem ion church Ottawa, where over ti m Pa a eat were 'se of r the Hou be sof regular attenders, Among those whom he preached to were Sir Meckeuzie Bowell, the late Sir Frederick Borden, Sir Clifford Sifton, Sir Sam. Hughes and on several occasions, Earl Grey and Sir Wilfrid Laurier were addressed by him. In the large Centenary churcb at Ham- ilton, Dr Salton had the unique ex. perience for a Methodist minister of staving five years instead of three years Before coming to Winutpeg his charge was Ziou church, Moose Jaw. While there he was requested to take charge of the Saskatchewan Boy Scouts _on their trip to England in connection with the coronation of King George. During this visit of the boys Dr. Salton's troops had the very extraordinary experience of being reviewed In the grounds of the late Captain Grenfell by three field mar - abatis at one time. When it is remem- bered that there were but seven field marahalls in the world to -day it was re- garded as a distinct bettor that three of them, the Duke of Connaught, General French and Lord Roberts should have reviewed the Saskatchewan boys on that occasion. Kiug George and General Sir R. 13atlen-Powell were also present on that occasion, Dr. Salton bas the honor of being almost the first man to intro• duce the Girl Guides and Boy Scouts movement in Canada. In connection with the former movement he received his commission at the hands of Sir R. Baden Powell and he is also the possess- or of the distinguished honor the "Silver Wolf." Many of the honors of the Methodist churcb have been conferred upon Dr. Salton. He has been Secretary of two annual Conferences and a member of the General Conference in Montreal and on many occasions he has served as Presi- dent of Ministerial Associations. His academic degrees, B. A., M. A., and Ph D.. he secured in the Wesleyan Ifni versfty of Illinois. Two hobbies Dr. Salton has, one the study of art and the cute ,.tion of pictures sulfites other, the study of ways and means of uniting the so•called religious education with the day school education of the child. Dr, Salton is convinced that there can be no National stability or even individual character without edu- cation based ou morals. He has been requested to be present at the great religious education convention in Boston next month. Dr. Salton has travelled extensively. Twenty times he has been to Europe and the present battlefields are almost all familiar to him. Art is another hobby of the doctor's and be could act as "Cook's" guide to every Europeen art gallery. At the time the war broke out be was in England with a party from Winnipeg and Moose Jaw, assisting William Grayson to make his selection of Scotch, Welsh and English paintings.

Monday, the sea was rough, paesed passenger boat to left about 10 o'clock and also got into clanger zone. Those fellows that were put in the upper forward pat t of the deck nearly got drowned, The front part of the ship took a longe forward and the water poured over the forward deck and washed down into where Lite men were sleeping. Kit bags and life belts were floating all over the deck but the water didn't wash tip on any of the Inen. Wednesday the weather was fair and gen fairly rough. Trav- elled 250 miles, also mounted machine guns for defense agninst eubrnerhles, All the infantt•y had rifles issued to them.

You ought to see Liverpool at night: There are thousands of lights, bright and dirt. Saturday morning we event up on deck and ! found all the transports in line with the (Testi', and etusiers in the c ors dock 'There were hundreds of boats of all sizes and shapes moving around in the harbor all fere les, which cross every three minutes, cheered ue as they ;reseed. We disembarked at 2,30 p, nal, and were marched to the station a hanclreel yards away.

"We have used. " Fruit -a -Lives" in our house for over three years and have always found them n good medicine. Our little girl, Hallie, was troubled with Kidney Disease. The Doctor said she was threatened with Dropsy. Berlimbs and body were all swollen and Inc began to think she could not live. Finally, we decided to try ``Fruit -a -tines". She began to show imfiroveruenl a/ter we had given her afew tablets. Ina short time, the swelling had all gone down and her flesh began to look more natural. Now she is the heap/ties' one in the family and has no signs of the old ailment. We can not say too much for `(Fruit -a tines" and would never he without them".
