"ASKED what Sanatogen was, the doctor said that it contained caseinogen, prepared in a special way, and combined with a certain salt of phosphorus. "If they (the Guardians) could find anything else that combined those things in that way he would be very Pleased to know it Four times he had tried to do with substitutes, and each time the patient had lost ground Such was the explanation given by a Medical Officer to a certain Board of Guardians, who wanted to know why he had insisted on ordering genuine 1■ Sanatogen for an infirmary patient. (The original newspaper report of the doctor's evidence can be seen on application.) PROFESSOR STILLMAN'S EVIDENCE. Had it been necessary, the doctor could have oyerwhelmed the Guardians with evidence of the superiority of Sanatogen. He might, for example, have quoted the eminent physician who told a House of Commons Committee that there was something about Sanatogen which made it superior to any prepara- tions said to be the same thing. Or he might have adduced the following testimony from Professor Stillman, Professor of 8 Analytical Chemistry at the world-famous Stevens Institute, whose "portrait appears above The chemical union of the constituents of Sanatogen is a trm one, representative of the highest skill in the formation of a product containing organic phosphorus So combined that digestion and assimilation of Sanatogen are rendered complete with the greatest ease." There you have the sole reason for Sanatogen's cup priority—the special skill with which its ingredients are so combined_.ihat your biood and nerve cells fully utilise them and thus derive from them a true access of health and energy. TRY SANATOGEN TO-DAY. Buy a tin at your chemist's—from I/g-but take care that it really is genuine Sanatogen labelled II manufactured at Penzance." To protect you from substitution Sanatogen will later on be re-named Genatosan- genuine Sanatogen "-but at present it is still sold under its original name.

IAN ANGLESEY OPTICIAN'S I…
I AN ANGLESEY OPTICIAN'S I NATIONALITY. I DISCUSSION AT CARNARVONSHIRE I POLICE COMMITTEE. CHIEF CONSTABLE'S STATEMENT. A discussion took place at the Carnarvonshire Joint Pobce Committee on Thursday, touching the movements of Mr W, J. F. Kalvin, who re- sides at Gaerwen, Anglesey, and who for some years has acted as an optician for day schools under the jurisdiction of the Carnarvonshire Education Authority. Two letters were received from Mr Kalvin criticising the action of the Chief Const;.Lie in interfering with his visits to Carnarvonshire and to different parts of the same county. In the first of the letters he appealed to the committee to "protect him against the unjust treatment of the Chief Consta ble. The National Service authority at Wrexham were prepared to give him work in the optical de- partment of the Education Committee of Car- narvonshire, but the Chief Constable wrote him with the objeoi of preventing him from coming to the county. He had almost ruined him by placing him in a dark cell for 13 hours, though bail was olletvd by two gentlemen of- standing, Mr J. R. Pritchard and Mr Nee (laughter). (Mr Pi-iieliardl: "I know nothing about it.") His livelihood had been stopped for nearly two years, and he now stood before the committee as an innocent man ready to render service to the nation. lIe added that his wife came of a family one of whose ancestors, J. Hol- lingsworth, had the honour of receiving the free- don, of London 200 years ago." The purport of the second letter read was that the writer maintained that thf\ Home Office did not uphold the position taken on the matter by the Chief Constable Mr J. R. Prichard explained that he never offered to go bail for Mr Kalvin. All he did was to go dowt to the police office at the man's request, but he did not in any way interfere, be cause he knew the Chief Constable was respon- sible for aliens, and he would certainly not be. come bail for a foreigner. Dr. R. Owen: What nationality is Mr Kalvin? The Chief Constable: No one knows except himself. I CHIEF CONSTABLE EXPLAINS. The Chief Constable then explained the cir- cumstances at some length, prefacing his remarks by saying that the contiol of alien enemies in Carnarvonshire, which had been made a prohibi- ted area, was one for him, subject to die direc- tion of the Home Office and the Police Com- mittee had nothing to do wi.th it. The man re- ferred to now went under the name of William Jacob Fox Kalvin, but his proper name was Wil- liam Jacob Kalmaenovitz. Before the war broke out he boasted that he was a Hungarian, but af- terwards deemod it wise to say that he was a Roumanian, born in Bucharist. Later he said that he was born in Russia, in the jJtovince of Klillsk. lie had resided in Anglesey. Being re- garded as an alien enemy, the Anglesey police took proceedings against him early in 1914, and the magistrates dismissed the case without call- ing upon the man for documentary evidence of his nationality, with the result that he was al- lowed to go about juat as he liked. When Car- narvonshire, among other counties, was made a prohibited area, Kalvin, though knowing of the restrictions, came over to the county without permission, and he (the Chief Constable) caused him to be arrested. He was locked up overnight, and dealt with next morning, when he was fined. After that a solicitor petitioned the Home Office on his behalf, and subsequently the Home Office wrote to him (the Chief Constable) to the effect that they did not propose to interfere with his discretion. The position of the man was that he hrid to prove that he was not of alien na- tionality. He had had a contract with the education authority to supply glasses to school children. At present he was unable to go about the county, and ho (tho Chief Constable) was satisfied that his presence was neither necessary nor desir- able. "What appears to me as strange," added the Chief, "is that public men should in- terest themselves in an alien enemy at the pre- sent time." Though he had had no contract with the Education Committee for a long tjme yet he recently got to know of a clinic at Bettws- ycoed, and there was reason to think that he had the knowledge thvough someone connected with th" education authority. His services were not necessary, as the oducation author!* had come to a satisfactory arrangement with British traders within the county, and he (the Chief Constable) did not think that an alien should be allowed to carry on business at the expense^of British trad- ers as he had done in the past. He had no per- sonal feeling in the matter, and in justice to sonal feeli?n Chief Constable) he might say that he had allowed him to visit ttie oounty on about half a dozen occasions for bona-fide reasons, but he v. oukl 1^1 ot allow him to go about the county at will. The Lord Lieutenant (Mr J. E. Greaves) said tha.t had received several long, wrangling let- ters from Kalvin much on the lines of those read. He was very unfavourably impressed by the letters, which he forwarded to the Chief Con- stable, and he was now satisfied that the latter had acted perfectly rightly in refusing the men an unrestricted access to the county. It was decided to leave the matter in the hands of the Chief Constable.

FESTINIOG BOARD OF GUARDIANS.
FESTINIOG BOARD OF GUARDIANS. WORKHOUSE AS A MENTAL DEFICIENCY HOME. I fFrom Cur Own Reterier- J A meeting of the Board was held on Tuesday, Mr Fowdlen Jones (chairman) presiding. The! Clerk submitted the report of the House Committee on the question of adopting a por- tion of the workhouse budkliingis for the recep- tion of mental deficients from the counties of Carnarvon and Merioxietli. Mr H. R. Williams, Local Government Board inspector, explailned, that there were at present at the Deinibiglh Asylum 36 oases belonging to the county of Camarvon and 18 belonging to Mer- ioneth. The Board of Control had now modi- fied tibeir requirements, and did not want to remove these at present. It was a question for the Committee to consider whether they would -reoommiend the Guaiiitians to ask die Local Govetrronrent Board to certify the institution for the reception of 40 oases, and, if granted, they should be prepared within a reasonable time to take in 30 eases to start- Thts would leave a good margin of room for the ordinary paupers. If 20 cmes were acoommodtated he thought the Guardliians would be justified in employing a mala and fci-rialc) attendant, the costs of whom would be borne by the County CounoiHs. TUne Committee recommended tihe G uarrdÙms to intimate to the authorities concerned that the Boaird were prepared to take a certain number of mental diefioiteaiqy cases (40 being the maxi- mum suggested), and that the County Councils of Carnarvon and Merioneth be asked if they are prepared to send their oases to the institution. Mr Richard Davies, in proposing the adoption of the report, stated that he would Like to have a cleax understanding with the County Councils as to the sthia,re of the expense they were pre- pared to undertake. The Chairman: We aire not going to make any profilt out of the now arrangement. Mr R. Ricliaird6: I propose to leave things as they are. The Board ib misleading the rate- payers by 6aying thait the expenses will be paid by the County Councils. We miuct collect the money for the County Councils. Mr Edward Llewelyn seconded, remarking that the burden would fall on the ohouldte-ns of the ratepayers in the end. Mr Rioiiaad Rolipirts explained that these air- rangements weine made in order to avoid an ex-pemse of L40,000 in erectting new builldlin gs at Deal)-igh-tbat meant eoonomy. The Chairman: The question is who is better qualified' to look after these Guard- iiane or the County Councfi'l?

I now see that I had no conception of the true nature of one' s life hitherto. I used to feel dfesitisfied unless everything was up to the knocker, but if I re- turn home I sha.111 be far more easily p'oased. Any home li'fe will be better than the kói life out here. I have realised how pleasant my life ought to have been had I the sense to see it before the war. The ravages of the waif, the hardship and constant atteniti-on to duty are euch a contrast to what I enjoyed up to 1915."
SAVE THE CHILDREN. I
SAVE THE CHILDREN. I STOP THEIR COUGHS AND CO'LDS WITH I PD, I-s. There is nothing more dangerous than the I wrong treatment or neglect of Children's Coughs and Colds. It means the undermining of the little ones' constitutions. Peps provide the one treatment that can be given tc a child with perfect safety and assurance i of benefit. When one of these wondcrfui little Peps tablets :s placed in the mouth it dissolves ) into a medicinal vapour which floods the whole of the breathing passages. This air-like Peps medicine soothes and heald the sore and delicate membrane that lines the throat and chest; it destrcvs disease germs, and by clearing the obstructions out of the small breathing tubes gives speedy relief from cough- ing bouts. The "Cough Epidemics," which sometimes keep hundreds away from school, are thoroughly safeguarded against when mothers give Peps to their children as a goins- to-school" tablet, for a Peps tablet in the mouth kiils infection. No home w here there are children can afford to be without a box of these handy silver- wrapped Peps. They are free from harmful drugs, and are so effective that they seem to charm away coughs, colds, croup, bronchitis, whooping-cough and night cough. >

The exemption granted Edward Jones, moulder, was withdrawn. Wm. Williams, blacksmith, Trcmadoc, pleaded that he worked from morning until late in the evening, and also overtime, and that he was often very tired.

The case of Dr. Pierce Jones, the medical ofifcer for the parishes of Ynyscynhaiarn, Dol- benmaen, Peiimorfa, and Beddgelert, was con- sidered. The Clerk read p, letter from the Cen- tral Medical Board stating that Dr. Jones could be exempted if no substitute could be found for him.—Exemption allowed accordingly.
