The Cambrian News and Merionethshire Standard

Camp Reflections. (By a Sentimental Wallah). It was refreshing to find in last week's Cambrian News" that the question of a suitable war momorial for Aberystwyth has not been buried. It ..d"es seem unfortunate, how- ever, thas the public meeting made no more progress than to appoint a committee, while it had tho opportunity cf deciding once for all the form of the Memorial. The committee having been appointed, 1l only remains to be iiopoj tikt ic: iee> nmieiitiation will be I unanimous and acceptable. The arguments in favour of' a statue, or monument, or what- ever eise it may oe called, were not convincing. No iLna.L tr-- lia Lt costs, a monument cannot be its atfractiv., or inspiring, as a large public all, which can be impressive in its appear- ance, useful in its capacity, and in its constant usid be a worthy reminder of its object. To say that it is the duty of the Town Council to provide suitable public accommodation is benide the mark, because assuming that the Town Council will ever venture on such a pro- ject the cost will have to be borne by the ratepayers, who are -expected to bear the cost } of the Memorial. in deciding to honour the memory oi^lives sacrificed in the war, Aber- ystwyth people have the opportunity to do wliat is nobie and just, while at the same "time they will help to make the- attractions of their town even more warthy th&n it is of their affection and pride. The foll "wing ord. r wos issued recently in a camp where Welsh troops were stationed :— Saluting. The Brigade Commander has noticed with regret that the standard of salut- ing in the Brigade has fallen off. Officers commanding units are directed to imprest* on all ranks the extreme importance of the matter. Officers must be saluted even if they are in closed cars, and all ranks must look carefully at all cars to ascertain whether they are occu- pied by officers." t In ordinary life it would be considered impur dent, to say the least, if anyone appeared curious to know the occupants of a closed car; but in the army it must be different. Perhaps the nux t order w ll be to look out for officers in aeroplanes in order to salute them. When a noble lord said "wangle" in a par- liamentary speech, he surprised many people. Anyone acquainted with the vocabulary of soldiers would not be surprised by the use of such words; but, of course, noble lords are not expected to condescend-to use the lingo of soldiers. If they had no other language, soldiers could provide one for their *i; Con- versation. They may not be linguists or students of etymology, but are adepts at coin- ing and adapting words as good and* expres- sive as "wangle," whicil if classified, might make a rival universal language to Esperanto, provided the objectionable words, too com- monly used, were excluded, Now that efforts are made to educate the army, the waste of lung power in the use of what has been politely termed adjectival and meaningless words, deserves to be one of the first lessons. Mr. Gladstone OlfCe said (accord- ing to S.L.H."), that st ortg language differs from violent or vehement language in that it may be nicely adjusted to the circumstances of the case. There are no circumstances, how- ever, to which foul language can be adjusted. Army teachers have the opportunity of con- vincing their pupils that lung power can be reserved for occasions when strong languagel may be absolutely necessary, and that to waste it on indecent speech is not a sign of manliness or wisdom. It is certainly commendable that so much stress is being laid nowadays on education in the army. There seems, however, to be a lack of discretion somewhere. A young soldier who had passed through a Welsh intermediate school was obliged to attend ch sses to learn the rudiments of education. Assuming that to have been exceptional, in tb.3 majority of cases the new educational scheme is undoubtedly of benefit in promoting the desire for self-improve- ment. Every man of real learning Is anxious to increase his lore And feels, in fact,.a greater yearning The more he knows to know the more. This movement is significant in the history of the war, for out of all the destruction it comes as a constructive policy of immense possi- bilities. Not only dees it show that ignorance is the most painful and destructive enemy of mankind, but also that "Knowledge inspires Noble aims and pure desires."

A SPRING-TIME TONIC. Almost everybody feels the need of a tonic to brace up the system at this Season of the year. As the field of choice is a wide one, you should be guided in your selection by* the ex. perience of others. But, don't make the mis. I take of using a stimulant when you need a tonic; the former can give no lasting benefit, 'kn Mother Seigel's Syrup, howtfver, you have a proved stomach and liver tonic of nearly 50 years' standing, backed by the testimony of tens of thousands who have proved its qualities I by the lasting bensfits it haa wrought in their eases. The medicinal extracts contained in Mother Seigel's Syrup—of which there are more than ten vftrieties-niert a remarkable beneficial tonic effect on the organs of diges. tion, toning, strengthening, and stimulating them to bealthy activity. With youj- digestive organs in gocd condition vigorous health will I follow. Put Mother Se gel's Syrup to the test.

Yn ei anerchiad yn y Senedd y diwrnod o'r blaen egl'urodd Mr. Lloyd George, i raddau helaeth iawn, y rheswm dros yr oedi ynglyn a'r cyiundeb rhwng y gwledydd. Ac er fod I pawb ohonom yn awyddus iawn i gael heddwch ar fyrder, cto i gyd yr oeddem yn ein hawydd yn gullwng dros gof y gwaith mawr oedd gan y Gynhaaledd i'w gyflawni. Yn gyntaf peth, gwiw yw cofio i'r gynhadledd yn Vienna, ar ol I rhyfel Haenorol y Cyfandir, else.dd am un mis ar ddeg cj- n cael ar b- t!ia ac er cymaint oedd yr anawsterau y pryd hwnnw, diflannant megis yn ddiui o u cymharu a materion mawrion ein dyudiau ni. Yn ystod y rhyfel diweddaf, ac yng ngllwrs y cadoediad, y mae deg o wledvdd newydd wndi ei flurio, a.c ftil camyniad o ii^-nnv rhaid yw ad-diefnu ffiniau un w!ad ai ddcg; ac ar ben hynny drachefn y mae'r anesmythder diwydiannol yn y gwledydd i gyd wedi codi problemau newydd- ion otdf-I yn dal cysylltiad uniongyrchof a gwaith y gynhadledd. Diau fed llawer yn disgwjl y buasai'r Prif Weinidog yn dat- guddio'r amodaii heddweh yn ei anerchiad, one! fe'u siomwvd yn hyn. Ac megis y dywed- odd Mr. Lloyd George ffolineb o'r mwyaf a fuasai trafod y rlieiiiy eyti eu gosod gerbron I cynrychiolwyr v gelyn. Yr oedd yn annichon boddloni pawb mewn amodau o'r fath, ac o'u cyhoeddi cyn pryd bursid yn eodi rhwvstrau newvddiori ar ffordrl heddweh. I YR AMoDAU YN BAROD. Y mae'r sefylifa yn Rwsia wedi achosi" llawer l o brydcr yn y wlad hon o'r dechreu, a phawb r yn dyfalu both oedd oreu i'w wniftuthur yn wyneb y peryglon newydd oedd wedi codi ar y Cyfandir. Dywtdodd Mr. LloYd George eu bod liwy wedi dysgu gwers bwysig oddiwrth yr Almaew yn hyn o beth. Fe gofir i'r Almaen hithau fynd i mewn ymhell i drobwll Rwsia, gan gadw miliwn o filwyr yno pan ocdd hi ei hun yn ymyl dinistr yn Ffraine a Belgium. Yr oedd y cwestiwn o draul, hefyd, yn gw^estiwn mawr, a gw-ell gandklo ef oedd gadael i'r ysbryd newydd Nn Rwsia yinryddhau o'i drafferth ohono ei hun na gweld Prydain yn methu cyfavfod a'i gofynion ariannol. Dyma'r unig ffordd, ebr ef, i gawd'r ysbryd Bolshefic- aidd allan o'r wlad hon; ac er fod gallu mil- wrol y bloid newydd yn ymddangos fel pe'n cynhyddu mewn nerth yn Rwsia, yr oedd yr ysbryd Bolsheficaidd, er hynny, J81 graddol golli ei nerth a'i ddylanwad. Yn fwy na hvnny,ni chafodd y Gynhadledd yrri Mharis o'r dechreu unrhyw fath o gais oddiw/rth gyn- rychiolwyr cydnabyddedig y blaid newydd gyda'r amcan o gyrraedd rhyw gyd ddealtwr- iaeth ar y sefylifa. DywedodcJ y Prif Weini- df>g, ASmheJlacV, fod GynhadliedlH wedi cael cytundeb hollol ynghylch y prif seiliau i hedd- weh rhynrom a'r Almaen, a bod v telerau i'w I gosod gerbron y gelyn ymhen yenydig ddydd- iau. Yr oedd P°t> addewid a wnaeuiom fcl j gwlad, meddai, yn gynwysedig yn y telerau hynny. DIWYDIANT YN ESMWYTHO. Mae canlyniad y pleidleisio ymhlith y glowyr weithian wedi ei gyhoeddi, a mwyafrif mawr' iawn o blaid derbyn yr hyn a gynhygiwyd iddvnt yn unol ag adroddiad yr ymchwiliad a wnaed i achosion yr anesmwythter beth amMr yn ol. Nid oes yr un ardal wedi dangos mwy- afrif yn erbyn yr adroddiad^ hwn, ac hyd yn oed yn Neheudir Cymru, lie yr oedd gwrth- wynebiad mor gryf ar y dechreu, ond ychydig iawn, mewn cymhariaeth, a blsidlcisiodd yn erbyn cynhygion y Llywodraeth. 0 gyfrif glowyr y wlad gyda'i gilydd yr oedd yn agos i saith gan mil o biaid cytundeb, ac ychydig dros drigain mil a deg yn erbyn hynny. Er nad yw'r ffigyrau boddhaol hyn yn profi fod y glowyr yn foddlc 1 ar bobpeth a benderfyn- wyd, eto i gy danghosant yn eglur fod y glowyr, fei dosbarth, wedi sylweddoli'n briedol beth oedd cyflwr y wlad yn yr ar- gyfwng T,esennal a'r dylanwadl ofnadwy a gawsai streic gvffredinol o'r plegyi. Yn ffodus, felly, mae'r cymylau trymion oedd er ys tro wedi easglu ar y gorwelion yn graddol chwalu i gyd, ac oni ddaw rhywbeth annisgwyl ebo i afionyddu'r gwersyJlcedd y mae gennym obaith am dymor o lonyddwch i wynebu gwaith mawr y dyfodol. LLAIS Y MWYAFRIF. Ar y cyfan fe allwn dalu teyrnged i'r awdur- dodau gwladol are eu llwyddiant yn ymwneud a'r anesmwythter diwydiannol oedd yn bygwth cymaint ar j wlad yn ystod yr wythnosau a aeth heibio. Cyn cyfarfod o'r Pwyllgor Ym- chwiliadol yr oedd mwyafrif mawr iawn o blaid atal gwaith ymhob cylch, ac nid oes angen mynd ymhell cyn gweld y rheswm dros fod. c/r.ifer wedi newid eu meddwl erbyn hyn. Yn ffodus iawn, penderfynodd y Llywodraeth fod yr ymchwiliad i fod vn agoicd, modd y caffai'r gweithwyr, a'r wlad i gyd o ran hynny, weld popeth dro6tynt eu hunam. Ac oni chaf- ed y gweithwyr bopeth a ofnasant am dano, fe gawsant, o leiaf, yr hyn a ymddangosai, yn 01 y dystiolaeth a osodwyd gerbron y pwyll- gor, yn hollol deg. Gwyddai'r glowyr yn dda 1 v buasai barn 17 wlaA vn amt Vn A.. 1.), I pes gweithredent yn wahanol, a chafodd yr awdurdodau liwythau y cyfle i weld mai'r unig ffordd i bonderfynu anghydwe?d o'r fath yw trwy osod yr anawsterau i gyd gerbron a chodi'r Hen ,oddiar gefyllfa'r naill ochr fel y 10 e I lIall. Hyderir y diogelir y dyfodol yn sicrach ) eto yn y Gynhadledd Genedlaethol a gynhal-j iwyd gan weithwyr y wlad yn Southoort ddoe (dyId Mercher), ac y daw gwell dealltwriaeth rhwng meistri a gweithwyr fel canlyniad.

Leg a Mass of Sores. ZAM-BUK IIEALBD CRIPPLED LIMB "WITH SPLENDID NEW SKIN. Further strong confirmation of Zain-Buk's remarkable skin healing powers is recorded I by Mi-s. B. Hatherley. When interviewed by a representative of the Western Times at her home, "Claylands," Honiton, South Devon, Mrs. Hatherley said:— I had a very bad leg. In fact, it was so ) bad I began to fear I should be a permanent invalid. My trouble started with a spct, about the size of a halfpenny. This spot eventually spread entirely over my right leg. The skin scabbed and sealed and at times there was a terrible discharge.. My leg was one mass of scab, and the irritation was so intense that I couldn't sleep Hf- all. I felt I could tear my leg to pitoess j I I went to the chemist and later to the doctor, but though I persevered with their remediee I I got no benefit whatever. Then I saw Zam-Buk advertised and decided to try it. I felt relief after the first application, so I kept up the dressihgs, apply- ing Zam-Buk twice a day on clean bandages. After each application I felt better. All the bad matter was drawn out of the inflamed sores j which then filled up with healthy new flesh, j I could walk about again quite freely and there was no pain in my legs such as I endured 1 so long. j My leg is now perfectly healed, thanks entirely to Zam-Buk. To-day, 3 years after Zam-Buk healed her j bad leg, Mrs. Hatherley writes:— • I My leg is still quite healthy and strong, j Tn fact, I haven't suffered in any way with it I sinoe Zam-Buk healed tha sores three years ] ago. Zam-Buk is a splendid skin healer.. j Zam-Buk is the one reliable remedy for itching and running skin diseases, and for cuts, burns, scalds, and other minor Injuries. | Get a box to-day and bo prepared for the accidents that will happen and the skin sores and blotches that come with every Springtime.

Anxious to Help Others. Mrs. K. Brazier, of 80, Laugiey St., Luto., gives a striking proof of the lasting effect of Dean's Pilis. "Few women can have suffered more than I have from kidney complaint," said Mm. Brazier, on July 21st, 1906. "I think my reason would have left m« but for Doan's Backache Kidney Pills. "Across the back, just where fche kidneys are, hard cutting pains would catch rme. My legs became swollen and I seemed ib-lose all my strength. The urinary system was itie- ordered, a desire to relieve the bladder being too frequent. "Neuralgic headaches never seemed to leave me, and uric-acid so upset the optic nerves that I was nearly blind at timee.

I suffered for six months with a terrible Uice.rated Wound in my knee about two inches in depth. 1 was attended to by doctors, and had a nurse, but did not get well. The doctors thought I had a diseased bone, so I had an opera- tion, having a piece takea away from my knee about the size of a five shilling piece, but still did not im- prove. Hearing so mueJ. about 'Clarke's Blood Mixture', lat last resolved to give it a trial, and after a few days the improve- ment in my knee was great. The first bottle eased my pain, and by the time I had taken a few bottles three, I believe my knee was completely cured. All my iriaas were surprised at such A wonderful cure, especially after being laid up in bed foa si* months. Signed Mrs Denham, oi 29, Brynhyfrydd, Penyaarren, Merthyr Tydvil, Wales.
