The Chit. f Corrective I This is a title which may be applied with- out exaggeration to the!* celebrated specific—Beecham's Pills. So very try ing to the average constitution is the strenuous character of modern life, that one becomes increasingly liable to get "run down." Such a condition of lowered vitality is fraught with considerable danger to health, for the bodily system is less able to withstand the attacks of disease. Beecham's Pills are an excellent medicine for modern times. They suit J our requirements. They meet our needs. Their gentle, yet thorough influence as i an aperient speedily stimulates the liver to healthy activity, and their excellent tonic propei ies strengthen the stomach in a nnraed degree. Such distressing ail- ments as biliousness, constipation flatu lence, indigestion and headache—in- dications that the health is below the normal-are quickly dispelled and the return to a more vigorous state is estab- lished. Beecham's Pills are prepared with the most scrupulous care from in- gredients of vegetable origin having great curative value, and they cannot fail to prove beneficial to all who use them, if the directions are followed. Be- yond all doubt, the medicine for modern j times, I and for giving tone and vim to the system is BEECHAM'S PILLS. Sold everywhere intboxes price i/ii (56 pills) & 2/9 (168 pills) E.

DEVERfUX "RED CROSS" CUP. Annual Competition at Brecon. Lady Glanusk on the County Organisation. The annual competition for the valuable cup given by the Hon. Mrs R. C. Devereux, open to ladies' detachments, of the Brecknockshire Branch of the British Red Cross Society, was held at the Territorial Drill Hall, Brecon on Saturday. Six detachments competed. Each group consisted of six members and an officer. Three subjects had to be taken—(1) practical treatment of accident, general turn-out and smartness, judged by Dr. Valentine Rees, Brecon (2) first-aid, judged by Dr. P. E. Hill, Crickhowell; (3) home nursing, judged by Dr. Colston Wiiliams, county medical officer; and 96 marks were aUottedtQ; each, making the total marks possible 288. Major C. Walker of Brecon, the county director, and Quarter Master A. A. Mitchell, of the Brecon men's detachment, made the necessary arrangements and helped in various ways iu the ball. The work generally was smartly done, and there was a very close competition between Talybont-cum-Llanhawlacb, Brecon \Town and Hay. The winners proved to be Taiybont-cura. Llanhamlacb, who won the trophy last year, and their commandant (Mrs Jones-Williams, Coi Pare) was warmly congratulated by Lady Glanusk, "Red Cross" president for Breconahire, on this achievement. Brecon Town, under the command of Mrs D. W. E. Thomas, were only two points behind the winners, and Hay, com- manded by Miss Tunnard-Moore, were only two points behind Brecon-a very near thing. Details of the competition Talybont-cum Llanhamlacb, 90, 80, 89-259. Brecon Town, 77, 94, 86-257. Hay, 95, 80, 80-255. Glasbury, 87, 80, 74-241. Crickhowell, 67, 90, 80-287. Llanfaes, 59, 60, 63-182. Lady Glanusk, who was received with cheers, presented the cup and most heartily congratulated Talybonton winning it twice in succession. It was most creditable to them, and she was sure they must have done a lot of work. Their moat grateful thanks were due to all detachments for the excellent results of last year's inspection; it was a credit to to the county, especially when they considered what a short time the Brecon. shire branch of the society had been started. Their thanks were also due to the medical men who had so kindly conducted the examination that day, Dr. Hill, Dr. Rees and Dr. Williams; to those medical practitioners who had gratuit. ously given their services in training various detachments, and last, but not least, to their energetic county director. Major Walker, whose labours were very considerable and worrying, yet who carried out his duties with a tact and zeal which alone ensured success. They had now in t'be county 227 women and 77 men who had passed their examinations, and she hoped in the near future they might see some more men join them, so that they could carry out a combined field day for the annual inspection. Things in that county were apt to go well for a year or two and then die off, but she hoped and trusted that they would not allow their voluntary aid detachments, which bad begun so well, to die. (Applause). They must be an asset to a neigh- bourhood, the training must be a benefit to those who got it, and in cases of emergency many valuable lives might be saved by the fact of their having bad this training- (Applause). Con. cluding her ladyship said I thank you for all you have done, all the trouble you have taken for the credit and the honour of Brecon. shire. (Applause), Lady Glanusk afterwards entertained the nurses and others to tea.
