TRIP ONE OF INTEREST AND PLEASURE
Ha Her First Experience with Seasickness la
Crossing the English Channel Olimpse
of Paris aad Marseilles.
Marseilles, France, Dec.4.
We reached here from Paris last
night at eleven and 1 m trying to
get this written so I can mail It
before I sail to-day. We are at
the grand hotel Du Louvre a-el-
ite-la-Paux. Now isn't that b
name? My! but it is fine here! "V
From London we went by ra.1
to Dover (noted for its whte
cliffs) and took a steamer across
the English Channel, where I got
my first taste ol seasickness; but
it only lasted hn hour. When we
reached Calais ou the other side,
we got into a railway carriage im
mediately for Paris, which is one
of the most beautiful of cititjs.
We stayed at quite a grand hotyl,
too the St. James, which over
looks the famous gardens of the
Tuilleries and the Louvre (art
pallerius.) We secured first class
( compartments for Marselllos,
(( which city it took the whole day
tillaf-r 10 at night to reach..
Mr. Lee had bought quite a lot, of
fruit and lunch, and we had, a
regular picnic on the tram. "We

Well Known Soldier and Citizen Suc
cumbs to Attack of Heart Disease.
The many friends of John G.
Shafer will bo pained to learn of
his death which occurred at hn
homo at McKibbin postoftice in
Belfast township last Saturday.
While he had not been in vigorous
health for several years, he arose

breakfast, but au attack of acute
heart disease followed soon there
after, and before noon he had
passed away...
Had Mr. Shafer lived until the

much hard service in that great
struggle.

position he won to him a large
circle of friends who will sincere

A committee was appointed to
prepare a remonstrance to be dis

What a picturesque time it was
to start out on the beautiful blue
Mediterranean just a little before
sunset! We were scheduled to
sail at four, but were delayed. To
speak again of the sunset, it was
the most beautiful 1 had ever
seen. On the Mediterranean, and
here in the East generally, the
sunset itself is not so lovely as
the afterglow, which shows ev
ery color one can conceive of.
One never grows weary of watch'
mg the harmony of these colors,
This first evening on the Medi
terranean the sun itself was like
a ball of fire as it disappeared
over the island of hills; the after
tints were marvelous. The color
of the water in the Mediterrane
an is a wonder in itself; at first
one might say indigo-blue but
no. it is purple also, and has
snades of rose and crimson lake,
The conclusion is that it is quite
beyond description.
The interest of our southern
voyage was added to by the fact
that we rarely lost sight of land
The hills are of great variety in
outline and color. They are not
green hills such as we have in
America, but brown of various
hues with only patches of green
here and there, and villages dot
ted over them.
About the Equateur of the
Massagerie Maritime Line I have
said nothing. Really, there is
not a great amount to be said in
praise of any of the Mediterrane
an steamers. They are a decided
come down after the North Ger
man Lloyd steivaers a- To begin
with they're crowded with pas
sengers. There are only two
promenade decks; the upper one
runs about one-third the length
of the vessel to the rear; the low
er one, occupied principally by
the dining-saloon, covers the
same space as the upper one.
We managed to be quite comfort
able. Early in the trip we made
the discovery that the extreme
bow of the boat beyond the cap
tain's bridge was quite the nicest
part of the boat, so we spent
most ot our evenings up there.
Saturday at 6:30 a. m. we drop
ped anchor m the harbor at Na
ples. We got up early to see the
sun rise over Naples, and were
well repaid.
The Bay of Naples, with smok
ing Vesuvius in the background,
is a picture in itself. Again, it
was the most beautiful sunrise I
had ever seen. That's not saying
so much, as I can't boast of hav
lug seen so many sunrises as
sunsets in my life. Of course we
went on shore, and it was one
long circus from the time we
started to dicker to go on shore
until we wore safely on the Equa
teur once more. Naples is, as
,you know.ono of the worst places
on record for sharpers. They

As the first day of the New
Year was rapidly slipping away
from us, the parsonage was great

to give than to receive." Many be
her blessings for kindness mani
