L V Mrs. Peters (from n fholograph). Her Mother, A Chronic Dyspeptic Cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Theiatest cures by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, 'illustrating how they create new blood, and so restore perfect health to adults and the young, refer to the cases of Mrs. Elizabeth Peters, of 9, Oak Grove, Cricklewood, London, N.W., and her daughter Cissie, whose experience is printed on this page also. Mrs. Peters stated: "For twenty years 'through Chronic Dyspepsia, I never knew a clay's good health. But now, at the age of 42, I enjoy perfect health. This I owe to a course of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I was only twenty when the Indigestion ,began to torture me after every meal but after my marriage I suffered so acutely with Dyspepsia that I almost lost all desire to live. Stabbing piins cut through my chest after meals, and it was impossible to stand upright without agony. I suffered, too, from flatulence and palpitation,, and often fainted. In spite of medical treatment my stomach seemed to get weaker bilious headaches and sickness attacked me, and after even a morsel of nourishment the pain became violent. t., "We spent a lot unsuccessfully in treatments. At last my husband bought me a supply of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to try. After I had taken a few boxes of these pills my appetite began to return and food agreed with me. I was surprised at the ease with which I digested food, and the pains disappeared from nay chest and back. After further supplies of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills I was not troubled with flatulence, palpitation, head- aches or dizziness. My nerves were braced up, and every trace of Indigestion and weak- ness left me. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured me of acute Dyspepsia, and I am grateful to them far a new lease of life." Because the Pure, Rich, Red Blood that Dr. WsLlian.j' Pink Pills create, they have cured countless instances of Indigestion, Anaemia, Rheumatism. Eczema, and Nervous Disorders also ills that afflict women only.

Lady Aberdare, who presided, spoke in glowing terms of the work done in outher counties by the Red Cross Society, under the presidency of Lady Plymouth and Lady Llewellyn. Her ladyship, thought that nowhere was the sooiety needed more urgently than in Glamorganshire, where there was such a large area and scope for the volunteer workers in rendering first-aid to those meeting with accidents whilst following their employment in the collieries. She was pleased to. associate herself with such a useful and much-needed work, and trusted that all who possibly could do so would attend the. classes and take certificates for rendering first-aid^ Her ladyship, in introducing Dr. Lynn Thomaa said it gave her great pleasure to do so, and thanked Dr. Thomas for coming to further the Red Cross Society in Mountain Ash. Dr. Lynn Thomas, who was accompanied by Mrs. Thomas, was wall received. He said it gave him very gerat pleasure to see such a large number of people. Some very interesting pictures were shown, which he explained, illustrating his lecture on the work which he was most anxious to furth.1) in rendering first-aid to the soldiers in time of war. Mr. Thomas then went on to explain that in the South African war more than half the soldiers who perished died not through bullet wounds, as would be generally supposed, but through inattention. Lord Aber- dare proposed a hearty vote of thanks to Dr. Thomas for his lecture, and reminded the audience of the debt they were all under to Mr. Thomas for his great and valuable services in South Africa to his fellow-countrymen. He was one of the first of our doctors to volun. teer for the front. Colonel M. Morgan seconded the vote of thanks and Capt. F. N. Gray sup- ported. The latter said he trutsed that all who could do so would give her Ladyship all the help ahey could to further the cause of the society in Mountain Ash. A few very amusing pictures terminated a pleasant evening.

f Mountain Ash District Council, —- SUNDAY CONCERTS. OUGHT THEY TO BE PREVENTED? The ordinary meeting of the Mountain Ash District Council was held on Tuesday, under the presidency of Mr. W. Millar. The members present were:—Messrs. D. Rogers, Wm. Evans, Griffith Evans, Evan Morris, Geo. Hall, Thos. Jones. Wm. Davies J. Bruce Jones, Wm. Lamburn, Rev. E. V. Tidman and Mr. Silas Williams; with Messrs. H. P. Linton (Clerk), F. Stock (Accountant), and v Thomas (Surveyor). On the motion of Mr. D. Rogers, seconded by Mr. Thomas Jones, it was decided to hold a special meeting to consider the question of the water rates. A letter was read from a Mr; Morgan, in reference to Stoney Hill, Abercynon. The writer pointed out that his client was prepared to go on with the agreement on the terms con- tained therein—that no private improvement charges be made in respect of Stoney Hill after the new passage had been made.—On the motion of Mr. Bruce Jones, .seconded by Mr. William Evans, it was decided to send a copy of the letter to the Abercynon Chamber of Trade. The Clerk of the Glamorgan County Council wrote urging the Council to provide a small-pox hospital. Mr. W. Lamburn: We are taking steps as fast as we possibly can. Upon the suggestion of the Clerk, it was decided to relpy that the Council were already moving in the matter. SUNDAY CONCERTS. The Clerk reported upon the Theatres Act, 1843, and the Sunday Observance Act, 1781. Mr. Linton pointed out that there was a heavy penalty for holding sacred concerts on Sunday, at which a charge was made for admission. In the subsequent discussion it was pointed out by 6ome of the members that it was the rule at such concerts to make silver collections. —The Chairman said that whatever methods were adopted for securing payment for admission the fact remained that they were arranged for the purpose of making money. They ought to be stopped.—Mr. George Hall said that these concerts were arranged in the chapels, at which silver collections were made. Were they going to put a stop to these ?—Rev. E. V. Tidman: The only thing to do is to put nothing in the collection. They cannot send you out.—Mr. John Charles said that collections were made at the doors and if people refused to pay they would not bo admitted.—Mr. Silas Williams: How is it that these people run into these concerts ? Are there no good preachers at Mountain Ash ?—Mr. John Charles: They are held after the services.—Mr. William Lamburn called attention to the horse-play which was being carried on by young men in the streets of Mountain Ash, on Sunday evenings. He thought there should bo some attractions provided at the chapels for these young men. If churches were making complaints about the sacred concerts they ought to do something to improve matters.—Rev. E. V. Tidman: You do not expect the churches to compete with this silly nonsense, do you ?—Mr. Lamburn: No, but they should do something.—The Chairman We are going off the mark in discussing this matter.—Replying to Mr. Tidman, the Clerk said that the police would see that there was no infringment of the Act.—The matter was afterwards dropped. DECLARATION OF POfcLS. The Clerk reported that he was obliged to employ extra polling clerks at the recent Guardians and Council elections in the district. A motion confirming the action of the Clerk was carried. Mr. William Lamburn asked the Clerk, as Returning Officer, whether, on future occasions, it would be possible to have the results declared on the same night as the poll was taken.—The Clerk: I appeal to you, Mr. Lamburn, as a representative of Labour, would you like to work eighteen hours in a day ?—-Mr. Lamburn If we pay extra time.—The Clerk (interrupting): I do not want any extra pay.—Mr. Linton added that when they counted the following day they were more fresh for the work and got through it in half the time it would take up if they counted on the polling night.—Mr. Lambum: It is done everywhere else—The Clerk (heatedly): No it is not. It .is impossible to do it here. It you want it done, then all I say is, you must get someone else to do it for you.—Mr. Silas Williams said that he fully recognised the difficulty of counting the same night, but could they not have some of the results made known the same night. He was aware that some of the boxes did not arrive until 11 p.m.—The Clerk The law will not allow us to do that. We must not begin counting until all the ballot boxes are in the room. If we counted in the night we would be here until three o'clock the following morning.—Mr. Williams Davies asked if, when there was only one contest, the result could be made known on the night of the poll.—The Clerk replied in the affirmative. YNYSYBWL RECREATION GROUND. A further communication was read in respect of the proposed recreation ground at YnysybwL It transpired that the landlord desired to reserve the right of running railways over a portion of the ground.—Mr. Silas Williams remarked that the conditions were thoroughly bad, but they were better than nothing at all.—Mr. Bruce Jones said the owner was willing to compensate for any land used.—Mr. D. Rogers replied, and said that was not the point. Perhaps after the portion required for railways had been taken up the remaining portion would be of no use as a recreation ground. On the motion of Mr. William Davies it was decided to accept the terms.—Mr. Silas Williams afterwards moved that a fencing be placed around the ground. Ynysybwl, he said, was the only place now without a recreation ground.—Mr. Williams And Abercynon.—Mr. Williams: But you are going to have a bridge (laughter).—Mr. D. Rogera: What will the election cry of the Abercynon members be. when this bridge is completed ? (laughter).—Mr. J. Charles: Oh, they will still have Stoney Hill (renewed laughter) —Mr. William Evans And the children's park. —Mr. Williams' motion was unanimously agreed to.

Tfee pleasure of cycling is entirely dependent upon the quality of the machine. The rider of an inferior bicycle will be the victim of constant mishaps and expense for repairs, not to mention the danger to life and limb. In the long run the best is the cheapest. Mr. J. J. Bibby, of Reading, who haa been riding a "Centaur" continuously for more than five yearns, in all weathers and over all sorts of roads and by-lanes, writes:—"Tlh« machine is &0 good as ever. "Centaur" cycles can- not beaten for easy running and hill t climbing, of that I am oerta." The "Centaur" always did enjoy an unbailed reputation for durability and high quality of manufacture. This partly accounts for the immense popu- larity of the "Centaur" cycles amongst all classes of cyclists. Send for particulars, or call and inspect the models on view at J.

At the request of Mrs. Cheyne and Mrs. Morgan, in March last, she went in and found the baby on the dresser, very dirty, and lying between two dogs.— Catherine Mary Beale, a lodger with the last witness, gave similar evidence, and so did Ethel Porey, who, up to last Christmas, lived next door to Mrs. Dally. Porey said defendant was continually drunk. She had been drunk for a week running. Witness had seen the child outside the house without shoes and stockings, the mother being too drunk to come out for him. The house was full of dogs. Witness had seen 16 or 18 dogs there, including some pups.—P.C. Osborne George spoke to visiting defendant's house on the 14th ult., soon after noon. Mrs. Dally was then very drunk, and was sitting in front of the fire. The child, who was running about, was very dirty, as also was the room. There were two dogs in the room, and no guard in front of the fire. He had gone there to see if defendant had a dog licence. She had no dog licence.—Mr. John Thomas, the Inspector of the N.S.P.C.C., said be had had the case under his observation since January, 1909. On 23rd ult, be visit- ed the house, in company with Dr. Arthur Jones, about 7 p.m. Mrs. Dally, her son William, and the little boy were there. De- fendant was not drunk, but smelt strongly of drink. They examined the child, who was suffering from bronchitis and whooping cough. Ho was not badly nourished, but was very dirty. The house was dirty, as also were the bedstead and bedding. The tick was abomin- ably filthy. Some new, clean clothing had been thrown over the bed. The bouse was not fit to live, in. On several occasions he had visited the house, and found defendant the worse for drink, but not incapable. He had seen the child later in the day, uadressed. De- fendant was goinn- from bad to worse, and neglected the child; in consequenoe of this neglect, the child was suffering unnecessarily.— Dr. Arthur T. Jones spoke to visiting defend- ant's house on the 23rd ult. The kitchen was very foul, and smelt of a poisonous atmosphere. The child, Spencer, was very dirty, and had not been bathed for a long time. The chikl was suffering £ fom acute bronchitis. His opin- ion was that Mrs. Dally was an habitual initiative or without proper attention. The J only chance for her was to get her into a home. Defendant was committed for trial at the forthcoming Assizes, the custody of the child to be given to the N.S.P.C.C. Defendant was admitted to bail in, two sureties of £5{) each.

Tea was pro- vided by the superintendents. Mr. W. Bell (Cardiff), inspector of the South Wales division took the chair. After two finely-rendered i violin solos by Mr. W. Carroll, Mr. Bell gave the budget" of the previous year. He stated, among other things, that the increase in premium j income of the company for the year was j £134,041 over the previous year. The claims paid in the year amounted to £1,131,380, making a total of £ 13,331,325" since the estab- lishment of the company. The total funds were now £6,838,618. He described the Refuge as being of one root, not having grafted on any branches. It had over three-and-a-half millions of policies now in force, insuring the sum of £46,000,000. K was at once the admiration of its friends and the consternation of its foes. He spoke of the good results attained in South W al and thanked the staffs for their loyal efforts in helping on the good work. He believed in giving praise where praise wa" He welcomed the new Insurance Act, as it made their business the stronger.—Mr. R. Castle, inspector, Cardiff, gave an address of encouragement to the staffs. Amongst other things, he reminded the men of what the Right Hon. Winston Churchill said: If I could, I would write the word' Insure' on every artisan's cottage' front, and on every business man's blotting pad, so that he could not get away from that duty."—Mr. John Holland, super- tntendent, Merthyr, gave an invigorating address urging the men. to work to help to make their funds up to £3,000,000 by the end of ln. ¡ Mr. J.

The tables were presided over by the following ladies:—Mrs. Evans (Brynglas), Mrs. Thomas (John-street), and Mrs. Thomas (Brynteg), assisted by Miss Jane Thomas, Miss Annie Thomas and others. Miss Mary Jones (Fox- street) and Migfl Edith Thomas (Bargoed- terrace), the secretary and treasurer respectively of the social, also assisted.

MATTHIAS' Easter Vestry was held on Thursday evening, in the Parish Hall. The Vicar (Rev. R. David) presided over a fair attendance. In his opening remarks on the Church's work during the past year, the I Vicar stated that, on the whole, fair progress i had been maintained. The number of teachers and scholars in the Sunday School showed an I increase, but he would like to see a further development of adult classes, especially for women. A new branch of the Church's work had been instituted in the Girls' Friendly Society, which had already done useful work among the young girls, and in which a keen interest was taken by all concerned. Four lectures had been given under the auspices of I the Church Defence League during the past session, and had proved both interesting and instructive. The executive committee—the ¡ cabinet of the church—had amply justified II' its existence, proving especially useful in regulating financial matters. He believed he I was correct in saying that this was the only I parish in the diocese which possessed such an institution. He also took that opportunity of welcoming the Rev. D. Morgan, who was recently appointed curate of the parish. He felt that in him the church had gained an earnest and zealous worker, a sentiment which was heartily endorsed by those present. There was a slight increase in the number of Easter communicants—220 Welsh and English at the Parish Church, and a total of 664 in the whole parish. The total contributions of the parish for the year amounted to £688. During the year the church had acquired half.an-acre of land from Col. Lockwood, as a vicarage site, on payment of half the legal expenses. The secretary read a statement of accounts, which showed receipts amounting to £148 9s. 9d., of which £127 18s. 5d. was the total of Sunday collections, and an expenditure of S120 13s. 3d. leaving a credit balance of f/l,7 16s. 6d. Liabili- ties now due, would, however, swallow up the greater part of this balance.—Mr.' Jackson reported that £242 had been raised during the past year towards reducing the debt on the Parish Hall, leaving a balance of about £300 still to be cleared. A hearty vote of thanks was accorded to Mrs. Leigh for a donation of 6s. 5d. to this fund. The thanks of the Vestry were also conveyed to Mr. A. G. Durden, for his services in instituting a proper system of book-keeping for the various church accounts. The Vicar again nominated Capt. W. Dowdeswell as his warden, and Mr. Evan Morgan was unanimously re-appointed people's warden. Votes of thanks to the offioers, etc., of the church, and to the Vicar for presiding, brought a very interesting meeting to a close.

Mr. Keir Hardie, M.P,, at I Cwmaman. THE PARTING OF: THE WAYS. AN ELECTION IN JUNE. j Mr. J. Keir Hardie, M.P., was the principal speaker at a social gathering of the Labour Party at Cwmaman on Monday night, arranged to celebrate his return to Parliament, At tho outset, he said that unless the Líber Putv showed more earnestness in 'the matter of Woman's Suffrage they "would get left. Th? movement was making developments of a. very surprising character, and he would not be as- tonished if, within two years from now, a Bill went through all its stages in Parliament, not with the unanimous consent of any particular party, bat with the approval of the leaders of all parties. Hie Mid-Glamorgan fight, continued Mr. Hardie, helped to emphasisa the fact that the parting of the wave was coming between Lib- eral and Labour representation. There had been a great deal of crowing in the Liberal camp over what was described as a great Lib- eral vieffory in that constituency, but of what did that victory consist? That the Liberals and the Tories qombined had been able to hold the seat by a comparatively small major- 11ty against a Labour candidate who was also a well-known Socialist. If anybody had^ reason to congratulate themselves, it was the Socialist and Labour Party, who, at the first time of asking, had polled six thousand votes. A statement made conoertiing Mid-Glamorgan —whioh had also a bearing upon Merthyr-was that the Liberals would not have opposed Mr. Hartshorn if he had been a Labour candidate. He did not believe it. It Mr. Hartshorn had been the mildest and meekest Labour candidal he would have been opposed just the same he was. When ''Mabon" first came out, the Liberals found him an opponent in Mr. F. L. Davis, and if they could have defeated "Mabon" they would have done so. In the • Gower Division the Labour Party bad to fight both Libsrai and Tory before Mr. John Wil- 5ams won the seat. In South Glamorgan also. with Mr. William Brace as member, the local Liberals did their best to get Mr. Leif Jones selected as candidate, and it was only when itie Liberal Whip stopped them from doing so—as he tried to do in the case of Mid-Glamorgan— that Mr. Brace was allowed a clear contest. Observing that the same thing was true of Wes: Monmouth, the speaker concluded that the plain fact was that neither Liberal nor Tory waa going to stand aside to make way for Lab- our until compelled to do so, and the moral was for them to keep the Labour machinery ii- good working order. In the course of 25 years' experience, lie h?»d seen a good deal in the way of political make- believe, but he did not think he had heard anything to equal the that was now going on in the Liberal Press about the attitude of the Government, to the House of Lords. But for the Irish Party, the Govern- ment would have turned tail and run awav from coming to ciosGo grips with the House of Lords. The rumours of compromise over the question meant that the House of Lords were going to oppose the first of the Veto resolu- tions, which took, away from them the power to deal with finance, and then the second reso- lution, which curtailed the power to interfere with other Bill?, was to be shelved until'a more -onYeWe.nt occasion. Th financial Veto reso- I'^tion would leave the position exactlv as n ■vas. It would not curtail in the slightest fegree the power possessed by the House of Lords. It was the second resolution that was of interest te the people.. The statement that the fate of the Budget rested with Mr. Redmond and the. Irish Party was, said the speaker, only half the truth. Mr. Redmond and his party had stated that they were prepared to vote for the Budget and carry it into law on certain conditions. Those conditions were that if the House of Lords re- fused to pass the Veto resolutions, the Govern- ment had either to force these resolutions through, or go to the King, and say the coun- try had returned a majority of 124 to break the power of the Houso of Lords. If the House of Lords refused to pass the same resolutions, the Government would say they were prepared to appeal to the country again; but if they got a majority in the new Parliament, the King would co-operate with them to compel the House of Lords to accept the will of the peo- ple. It was because the Liberal Government would not give that assurance that Mr. Red- mond and his party were refusing to pledge themselves to vote for the Budget. He (the speaker) wanted the responsibility to rest on the right shoulders, and if tho Budget was de- feated, the blame would. not be with the Irish Party, but with the Liberal Cabinet for not having the courage to carry out the mandate which the country gave them. He felt certain that a General Election would take place in June, if not before then, unless the Tories and Liberals came to some under- standing. He did not wish to hold his seat by the favour'of either the Liberal or Tory Party, and would maintain his freedom at all costs. If he could not be a free man inside the House of Commons, he would remain outside. If the electors tn his constituency were prepared to adopt another Labour candidate at the next election, he would cheerfully take the risk, and stand or fall by the result. He wanted ple to feel that it was war, and not politics. The miners of South Wales, the railway work- ers and working men generally, required to have their own party, their own political mach- inery, their own candidate, and they wanted to be able to return those whether they were opposed by Liberal or by Tory, or by both Lib- eral and Tory combined. There had been a great deal said about 'national sentiment and about Welsh Disestablishment, and other ques- tions of that kind; but if the people wanted to get national sentiment, they would not find it amongst the rich Liberals or rich Tories; they had to -get right down to the working classes.
