SAVE YOUR HAR AND BEAUTIFY IT "WITH "DANDERINE." Dandruff disappears and hair stops coming cut. Try this! Hair gets beautfrul, wavy and thick very quickly.

This destructive I scurf' robs the hair of il-4 lustre, its strength and its very life. and if not over- come it produces a feverishnoss and itch- ing of tbo scalp; the hair roots famish, locsen and die then the hair faIls out fast. If your hair has been neglected and is ? thin, faded, dry, ceriggl or too oily, get I a bottlo of Dandefins, apply a little as directed, and ten minutes after you will say this was the best investment you ever j made. Sold by all chcmists ancr stores tin and 2/3-1J() increase in price. Wo sincerely believe, regardless of everything else advertised, that if you dt- sire soft, lustrous, beautiful hair and lots of it—no dtiidi-ufi-no itching scalp and no more falling hair—you muofc use jvnowlton's Danderine.

PILES CA& EE CURED | without an operation OR MONEY BACK I from your own chemist. j Thousands of readers who suffer the L aeuU agony and debilitating effects of piles, haemorrhoids, pruritus, etc., will be greatly interested to know that these af. fiictions can now be cured without -esort- ing to the knife and all its pain, danger, ,in d uncertainty of permanent results. VIt was once said by a prominent medical man that-such operations are often like pruning a tree. They stop the growth in one place only to promote it in a dozen t others. A well-known London consulting chem- ist and expert in analytical work devoted most of his time for nearly a year to re- search and experiments with a view to per- fecting a cure for etz- £ i»a and other serious skin diseases. Xot only did he discover a soothing, antiseptic, and non-astringent [ curative corapo-ind -which wag amazingly efficient in banishing ftkin affections by corrpctin? their cause, but this componnd, knovn a"7 Nemolin, has now be?n found to ponce:?! remarkable cu"ative powers when applied to piles. Heretofore, pile tiu •- ments have consisted of powerful astrin- gents, which gave only tmporarv results, since by shrinking the tissues I-,id blood vessols they merely increased the conges- I' tion, which is,the primary cause of an piles, etc. Nem^lin has just tha opposite effect. It stimulates the local blood cir- ¡ culation, so all pain, itching, burning, and smarting stop: congestion is entirely dispersed, and affected parts almost un- mediately return to perfectly normal and healthy oondition. Nemolin can be 0 MamÐd cf all chemists. NOTE.-An interesting treatise on the action of NMnolin in oa?s of chronic pHeg, etc., written by the eminent chemist r&- ferred to in the above article, will be sent prepaid to anyone sufficiently in- terested to encloie a penny stamp for the- II return postage.

ABERAVON LABOUR CANDIDATURE I (By Cur Mining Correspondent). JL special meeting of 'he Council of the I South Wales wa6 held I at the Cardiff Engineers' Institute on Friday, Mr. James Winstone in the chair. There were pre^-iit, amciag others, Mr. J. D. Morgan and .Mr. ,J. James (anthracite district), Mr. D. K. Grenfell (Wetiforn), Mr. W. Jenkins (Port Talbot), together with 'the Rignt lion. T. Richards, M.P. A matter of considerable, importance I was brought forward by a deputation le- p.^esenling the miners of the Port Talbot district. It will be lememivcred that Mr. Jenkins and the miners' representatives objected to the method of procedure at the recent meeting held to select ? labour œndldate for the A?ravon Div'-ion, when Mr. Robert Williems xns det?urpd selected. The deputation k)W a.ské the Council to sanction the nomination oj Mr. William Jenkins as miners' candidate to lie run at the Parliamentary election for the I division. They put forward a strong e;á"e ¡ and ultimately the Cc-incH decided that the samo deputation should be em- powered to appear before the National Executive, of the Labour Party and to plead there that the selection of the ean-I didate be proceeded with anew, and that the decision ?hou?d be arnvd at by a personal ballot, and not by a block vote as was the case at the last meeting. j It was stated that unless this was acceded to, there was every probability that the local miners will insist upon running Mr. Jenkins as a candidate in opposition to Mr. Robert Williams. The matter, however, remains in abey- ance pending action following decision. A meeting of the "Mnt Conciliation Boai*d of South W V- find Monmouth- shire was A. S. Tallis (Ebbw Vale) presiding on the owneis' eide and Mr. James Winstone I on the workmen's side. The principal j question under consideration as affect- ing the whole ooalfield was the eup- ply of house _oal to the widows of the men killed at the collieries. At some places, it was stated, the supply of coal at colliers' prices is being continued, while at others mentioned to-day this is not the case. The workmen's representa- tives placed the question forcibly before the owners, who promised -the matter consideration. With regard to the supply of house coal to men living outside the colliery air,a, tv-o collieries were mentioned specifically to-day, they being situated in Monmouth- shire, and in these ca-sos the owners ac- cepted the general principle, leaving th 3 parties at these particular collieries to arrive at tho terms of settlement.
