The Children's Column. MY DEAR NIECES AND NEPHEWS, The/merry month of May is with us at last, but it came with frowns and tears upon its face instead of a smile. Did many of you play at crowning the May Queen ? Who of you my dear nieces were crowned ? I feel sure that all of you deserved to be, judging from the sweet letters which you have sent me. Do you know what is the Welsh for May Day ? It is Calan Mai, or clanmai in its abreviated form, and in the olden times it used to be our thirteenth of the month. And, say what we will, our fore- fathers knew the seasons of the year better than we do. I find from your letters that you managed to enjoy your Easter holidays in spite of the bad weather. Given and her brother went to Wales, where they seem to have had a glorious time of it. They were invited out to tea every day, and they found the bread and butter, and jam, and eggs delicious. But they did not hear the cuckoo, and were told that it has not been heard anywhere there this year yet. Tom Jones was taken by his father to see Maskelyne and Cooke, and he enjoyed himself so much that he is going to offer himself to them as an assistant as soon as his schooldays are over. What do you think of that, Wncwl ? he asks. Well, Tom, I don't know exactly. If you are clever enough to play tricks, you are also clever enough to do something better. Kate writes to say she went to New Jewin to Cymanfa'r Pasg, and did not miss a single service. On the other days she played with her little baby brother, of whom she is very fond. Her mother was making a new dress for her, and unless she played with the baby he would be playing with the thread. But I must not go on like this, or else the editor will cry "stop." Now for the answers to the questions of April 22nd. You observe that the word tro was in every sentence of the first question, and has a different meaning in every case. I.

Y "WELSH MEMBER." Nis gwyr y Welsh Member ddim o hanes ei wlad, a llai n& dim yw ei wybodaeth o'i llenydd- iaeth. Nid felly yr Aelod Gwyddelig mae ef yn hyddysg yn helyntion adfydus ei genedl drwy y canrifoedd. Bydd gwrhydri ei henwogion a dioddefiadau ei merthyron yn deffroi awyddfryd angerddol ynddo am wneyd rhywbeth clros yr Iwerddon Nid yw ei hanghenion byth yn ab- senol o'i feddwl. Dyna paham y mae yn gymaint o allu yn y Senedd. Nid bod diwylliedig iawn yw yr Aelod Seisnig; ond y mae yntau, chware teg iddo, wedi darllen English History a thyna'r rheswm ei fod yn Jingo heb ei fath. Am y Scotch Member, onid yw Bannockburn a Killie- crankie yn llosgi yn ddiddiffodd yn ei gof? onid yw Scott a Burns ar flaen ei dafo'd ? Ond sawl un o'r Welsh Members a droes erioed at hanes Cattraeth, a Thalmenai, a Chrogen? Sawl un fedr ddarllen cywyddau Dafydd ab Gwilym neu adrodd un o ganeuon Ceiriog ? Nid yw y fath gymhwysderau yn angenrheidiol i wneuthur Welsh Member. Cael sedd ddiogel a gweddol esmwyth yw y pwnc mawr iddo ef. Mae genym bump neu chwech o wyr i'n cynrychioli y gellir ei galw yn Gymry trwyadl ac yn addurn i'w gwlad ond, am y rhelyw, anodd dweyd beth ydynt heblaw Welsh Members. Paham, ynte; y telir iddynt y fath warogaeth ? Yr ateb yw, Onid dyma ddeunydd eilun-dduwiau ? Gwr cefnog, wedi ei gynysgaeddu yn dda a phethau y byd hwn, yw y Welsh M.P. Dyma hyny o hud- oliaeth sydd yn perthyn iddo. Nid yw yn gofyn offrwm nac aberth oddiar ei addolwyr. Bcdd- lona ar fod yn eilun. Mwy na hynny, mae yn barod i gyfranu llawer ced i'r rhai a'i haddolant yn gyson a ffyddlon. Y pwysicaf o'i addolwyr yw y pregethwyr. Yn yr ystyr hwn, y Welsh Member yw eilun yr eilunod. Edmygwr selog ohono hefyd yw y blaenoriaid. Ar y pregethwyr a'r diaconiaid y dibyna yn benaf am hel y defaid i'r gorlan ddiwrnod y pol. Heb eu cymorth hwy, er cymaint eilun yw, mae'n amheus a welsai ei ffordd i Sant Stephan o gwbl. Nid yw yntau byth yn anghofio eu gwasanaeth. Os bydd eis- iau diddyledu capel, cynal bazaar, neu godi tysteb i ryw berson fo yn rhy wylaidd i weled ei rinweddau ei hun neu os bydd eisiau cael rhyw- un i dalu am fod yn gadeirydd ar gyngherdd neu gwrdd llenyddol, nid yn ofer y gwneir apel at y Welsh Member. Clywsom, dro yn ol, am ei haeloni yn y ffurf o cigars a champagne dinners. Ie, eilun defnyddiol dros ben i addolwyr y "llo aur yw y Welsh. Member. Na warafunwn iddo ei fawr ddyrchafiad. Onid yw yn talu pris uchaf y farchnad am dano ? Peth arall, os yw yn hel- aeth ei barch a'i bwysigrwydd yn y wlad, ni dderbyniodd erioed nemawr o sylw yn y Ty canys gwr bychan ei ddawn yw y Welsh Mem- ber, a llai fyth ei wroldeb. Pan fo'r dymhestl yn rhwygo'r dyfnderoedd, a'r dwylo yn ymladd gyda'r elfenau, car y Welsh Member yswatio yn rhyw dwll i lawr between decks, rhag digwydd i fellten ei daro neu i foryn ei ysgubo dros y bwrdd. Rhyfedd, onide, fod un sydd gymaint o dduw yn Nghymru yn llai na llygoden fach yn Nhy'r Cyffredin: ond dyna'r ffaith. Beth sydd yn cyfrif am hyny? Dywedais fod y Welsh M.P. yn hael o'i roddion mae yn fwy hael fyth o'i addewidion. A ydych yn llefain am Ddadgysyllt- iad? Mae y Welsh M.P. yn berffaith barod i'w addaw. A oes angen mawr am Fesur Tir? Neb mwy boddlon i'w roi na'r Welsh M.P. A ydyw y tafarnau yn trwblo eich cydwybod ? Gofynwch i'r Welsh Member am Local Option, a chewch ymrwymiad rhag blaen ond nid yw byth yn cyflawni. Ni raid i eilun-dduw ymboeni yn nghylch addewidion etholiadol ? Ond y syndod mwyaf yw fod Cymru o'r un farn. Hwyrach mai y cigars a'r champagne sydd yn marweiddio'r ymenydd ac yn lleddfu'r siomedigaeth. Bu rhai mor rhyfygus a galw'r eilun-dduw i gyfrif am dori ei addunedau. Ei ateb bob amser yw, "Ychydig sydd ohonom. Wiw i ni dynu gwg yr awdurdodau goruchaf." Dylem fod yn ddiolchgar am un drugaredd. Y mae llu o ber- sonau a garent fod yn Welsh M.P.'s; ond y mae y nifer gofynol yn gyfyngedig. Oni bae hyny, mae'n sicr y buasai y lloi aur mor ami a "lloia Lleyn."—O'r Geninen am Ebrill.

Sport and Play. With the exception of the matches between Newport and Leicester (played on the latter club's ground) and the Aberdare v. Neath game on Saturday last, the Welsh football season had practically ended. In the first named game Newport were defeated by 13 points to 4 points, and in the latter Neath were successful with a score of 9 points to nil. The Swansea Daily Post has started a tes- timonial fund to the famous Swansea Football Team. The fact that the popular Rugby com- bination has gone through the season invincible is a highly meritorious one, and it is felt that there should be a tangible public recognition of the fact. -——— It is understood that Mr. Gwyn Nichols, the famous International footballer, has played his last game. He is to be married in the course of the summer, and his numerous admirers will wish him well. ———— We hear that W. Davies, the Wrexham centre forward, has signed on for Blackburn Rovers. Davies played for Wales against Ireland last year, and has been displaying good form this season. The transfer fee is believed to be jQ150. He will, we have no doubt, prove a great acquisition to the English club, as so many other Welsh players have in the past to other clubs in the League. Exit football, enter cricket, is the usual in the English counties, but in the Principality the summer game is not nearly so popular. How- ever, we may claim that we are really opening the cricket season this year with the South Wales v. Yorkshire match. Bancroft, not content with the honours he has gained in the winter game, was seeking for more laurels on the cricket field in the above match.

ARE YOU WEARING SOne of those steel trusses which cause you about as much pain as the rupture, and which in the warm weather, when you are perspiring freely, cut and chafe you almost beyond endurance ? If so, you will be glad to know that there is a simple method of cure which has enabled hundreds of ruptured people to rid them<- selves entirely of rupture, so that no truss of any description was required. As an instance of what this method has done we are referred to Mr. George Clayton, 9, Slater's Buildings, Sutton-in-Ashfield, Notts, who had suffered excruciating pain from a navel rupture for 5 years, when he tried the Rice method. He was 60 years old, but it cured him so he gave up wearing a truss. A method which effects such cures deserves wide publicity, as well as thorough investigation by every ruptured person. To learn all about this method and how it has cured the severest forms of rupture, write for the book, sent free to all ruptured persons, upon application to W.S. R CE, Rupture Specialist (Dept. 2423), 8 & 9, Stonecutter Street, London, E.C. Don't wait until to-morrow—you might forget the address, but write at once now. Extract from the "WEEKLY DISPATCH," April 9th, 1905. Rupture. Statements that have appeared in these columns to the effect that it was highly improbable that rupture could be cured except by operation have been questioned by a rupture specialIst, W. S. Rice, 8 and 9, Stonecutter Street, London, E.C., who has brought us indisputable proofs that he has cured ruptures of a kinds and conditions (among them ruptures of over forty yearîl standing, people up to 54 years of age, and ruptures which to a appearances were irreducible), so that the truss was entirely dispensed with even in the hardest kinds of work. He has shown us the original letters from cured patients, the genuineness Of which we have no reason to doubt, and has explained so thoroughly his method of cure, and his reasons for believing he can cure tne severest forms of rupture if his instructions are carefully followe"! that we have now no hesitancy in believing that in many cases IS treatment without operation is successful."
