CANADIAN SOLDIERS
Winning the Admiration of Lord Roberts.
Lord Roberts in his reports to the War Office bas on more than one occasion al- luded to the brilliant dashes of the Can-~ adisn troops. “Bobs” evidently ‘hinke the Canadians are the rigbt kind of men,
for he keeps them right at the front with him and they are prominent factors in the suecess- fal march to Pretoria. The Canadian
Boys seem to be in love with their great commander too, for every letter from the boys shows the confidence they have in bim and their determination to figtit uno» der him. Lord Roberte’ tributes to the Canadian soldiers have made bim dear to he hearts of al! Canadians, for there are few who have not some friend, relative, or acquaintance, fighting with him. Bobs would geta grest welcome if he ever ebould visit Canada.
Our readers will be glad of the oppor- tunity to secure a really handsome por~ trait of the great general, and we are glad to be able to present such an opportunity. The Family Herald and Weekly Star of Moutreal have had painted by one of the World’s best artists a truly handsome pic- ture, acknowledged by Military authorities to be the most life-like portrait of Lord Roberts yet produced. It is 17x22 inches, on excellent paper. This picture should be in every Canadian home. In years tc
adian to esy,““My father fought under that man!” Canadian children now growing up will never forget “Bobs,” the pride of the nation. This picture is placed within the reach ofall, They would sel! at one dollar each in any store,but we bave made exceptionally favourable terms with the Family Herald by which al] our readers casa secure it. We offer Tae Werxty Ex-
cluding Lord Roberts’ picture,for the smali sum of eighty cante. To our present
come it will be the pride of many a Can- |
‘subscribers whose subseriptions fr | year are paid we offer tbe Family
