INDIGES- TION, CHEST AND THROAT AFFECTIONS. 25, St. Mary's-road, Garston, near Liverpool. March 13th, 1902. Gentlemen,-I wish to tender my heart-felt thanks to you for the great and lasting good that I have derived from taking GWILYM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS, and I write this letter, as it might be of some benefit to others suffering as I was some yean ago. I willingly agree for you to verify my statements, and i enclose the names and addresses of the Doctors I was under. In 1890 my health began to decline, I had no appetite for my meals, and I suffered from weak- ness. I also had a fear of that dreadful disease, Consumption. Getting worse, I consulted a Doctor, and was under his treatment about six weeks, but I was no better. I then took certain patent medicines, I should say about 14 bottles, but I seemed to be getting worse and worse. All work was torture t:: me. I tried another Doctor, who told me that I was suffering from Nervous Debility and Indigestion, and had completely run down. I could not sleep at night for pains in my chest, near the heart, and a swelling in the throat almost suffocated me. When sleep did come it was only of short duration. I visited a Throat Hospital, and I went there regularly twice a week for upwards of nine months, but I found I was getting worse. I then consulted another Doctor, who advised me to take a good tonic for six months. After having spent over ;E20 in med- cine, &c., I started taking GWILYM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS. When I had taken two bottles I found I was slightly better, and after I had taken the fourth bottle the pain in my chest and throat seemed less, and I realised I was getting better in health and spirits. After taking a course of GWILYM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS I could eat and enjoy my food, and my sleep at night refreshed me. My strength returned, and life was again a pleasure to me. In all, I took about eleven 4s 6d bottles of GWILYM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS, and I was cured. Since then I have had perfect health, my complaints have not troubled me, and during the last eight years I have not 10Qt a single day's work through illness, as my Employers can testify, thus proving that it is a Genuine Cure. GWILYM EVANS' QUININE BITTERS fought the disease itself. I sincerely hope that this Testimonial will meet the eyes of those who may be suffering like I was, and I have great pleasure in allowing you to publish the same. Yours sincerely, J. H. SAUNDERS.

William Collins, a Crimean veteran, admitted he was drunk, and was likewise fined a crown. Michael Heady's excuse was that it was "Coronation Day," and he was keeping up the festival.-He was let off on payment of 2s 6d. Fines of 5s was also imposed upon Michael Flinn, William Gettings, Joseph Davies, Andrew Jones, George William Nicholson, Joseph Tillett ani George Dibble. George Hulbrey, and James Morgan were mulct in 10s each. Timothy Sullivan and Thomas Callaghan were fined 2s 6d apiece. MISS JENNER MAKES COMPLAINTS. The Magistrate announced that a second magistrate would not be in attendance until two o'clock, whereupon Miss Gertrude Jenner, of The Typicca, Wenvoe, rose at the solicitors' table and remarked that she would not be able to be home then until six o'clock.—Mr Davies Then perhaps you will state what you have to say to me, Miss Jenner.-Miss Jenner said she had come to the court on the instructions of the High Court, that she should pay due respect to the local courts, with reference to an ex-parte application in regard to Mr Thomas Graham, of the Wenvoe Arms Inn, on our Wenvoe Castle Estate. She had referred the matter to her learned friend, Mr George David, of Cardiff, and had sent a registered letter to Mr Robert Forrest, who collected the rents of the Wenvoe Castle Estate. She had been to the inn named for three pennyworth of cheese, three pennyworth of bread, and a pennyworth of Huntley and Palmer's biscuits, and had been refused.—Mr Davies Draw it as close as you can, Miss Jenner. How far does the matter affect us here 7-Miss Jenner The annual licensing day is drawing near, and I object to live opposite a man who continually annoys me. I should like to ask if there is any precedent for anyone to refuse refreshments after the money has been tendered ? -Mr Davies Did he actually refuse ? — Miss Jenner Yes, your worship, after the money had been tendered on a clean white plate. (Laughter.) His wife, for whom I am very sorry, afterwards explained the matter to me. He has also made additions to his building, but I don't know whether he sells liquor there or not.—Mr Davies I am advised that we cannot interfere in the matter.— Miss Jenner That is a point of law. I will now be able to proceed with my ex-parte application in the High Courts. Then there is the question of the lads of the village annoying me.—Mr Davies Really we cannot interfere. I have heard all I can.-Miss Jenner: I don't see why I should be annoyed by a party of roughs.-Mr Davies We cannot interfere.—Miss Jenner then bowed her way out of court. BOY SENT TO PRISON. The record of Tommy Handcock, of Dock View- road, is indeed a bad one. He has been birched for theft and also sent to prison. Now he appeared in a new role, this time to answer a charge of sleeping out. On Sunday night last he was found by P.O. Beedles asleep in the yard of a house in Travis-street. The officer also informed the court that for the past five weeks Tommy had not been home. The only excuse the lad could tender for his behaviour, was that his mother knocked him about.—Mr Davies, after sternly reproving Tommy, sent him to prison for fourteen days.
ADJOURNED COURT.
ADJOURNED COURT. Before Mr David Davies and Mr J. Lowdon. LICENSING. An occasional license was granted to Mr W. Farmer, Castle Hotel, for the Cycle Sports on Saturday. A NEIGHBOURLY AFFAIR. David Bowen, Wyndham-street, Barry Docks, was charged with assaulting a neighbour named Josiah Turner, on the 28th ultimo. Turner came up and asked him something about a cask of beer, at the same time striking him on the cheek, and felling him to the ground. Bowen afterwards knocked two of his teeth out.-There was no corroborative evidence, and the Bench dismissed the case, ALLEGED BROTHEL. A warrant was ordered to be issued for the appearance of Elizabeth Holder, of 24, Charlotte- place, Cadoxton, charged with keeping a disorderly house. DANGEROUS CYCLING. Mr A. Jackson, solicitor, appeared for the defence of Richard Gyles, Castleland-street, Barry Docks, who was charged with furiously riding a bicycle in Holton-road on the 27th ultimo.- Inspector Morris said defendant rode down Holton- road at the rate of twelve miles an hour, and knocked down a woman, who was rendered un. conscious. Defendant did not offer to assist the woman, but rode off. He ascertained defendant's address next day.-P.C. McGovern gave corrobor- ative evidence.—Defendant said he was not going more than six miles and hour. He rang his bell as the woman was leaving the pavement, and she changed her mind and was going back when the machine collided with her.-George Williams and Emma Headford corroborated the defendant's version, but the Bench imposed a fine of 20a and costs. GROSS CRUELTY BY A YOUTH. P.C. J. W. Evans charged David Rees, a Barry youth, with cruelty to a dog. On the 29th ultimo the constable saw defendant in Broad-street, riding a horse. He had something dragging be- hind, which he afterwards found to be a dog. The animal was quite exhausted, and its tongue was hanging out and was unable to stand, and it was quite half-an-hour before the dog was revived.- Rees pleaded that the horse bolted, and the dog was dragged along in oonsequence.-He was fined 20a and costs, or fourteen days in default. DRIVER FINED. Frederick Johnson, for being at such a distance as not to have control over his horse and cart, was fined 78 6d. ALLEGED DISORDERLY CONDUCT. Martha Shield, of Robert-street, Barry Docks, who was defended by Mr A. Jackson, solicitor, was charged with being guilty of disorderly con- duct, and this being her first offence she was cautioned and dismissed. A similar charge was preferred against William Davies, Gilbert Davies, Daniel Pember, John Flint, and Alfred Bumford, of Barry Island. — P.C. Shillum stated he saw defendants in Plymouth- road on the 27th ultimo they were shouting and making use of very bad language.—The defence was that the noise was made by two men who were "mad drunk."—Defendants were dismissed with a caution. TEETOTALLER FOR A FORTNIGHT. I am a decent married woman, and you can say nothing against me. I was here when they put down the first dam at Barry." These were the accents sweet and mild in which Susannah Millar addressed P.C. McGovern in court. The constable said he saw Susie in Evans-street creating a dis- turbance on the 28th ultimo. You are a con- founded liar," she replied; I have only just come out of prison after doing fourteen days, and I have been a teetotaller for over a fortnight. The Bench imposed a fine of 10s, or seven days' imprisonment in default, for disorderly conduct. Mary Taylor and William Jones were fined 5s each for the same offence. ANIMALS ASTRAY. A fine of 2s 6d was imposed upon Enoch Williams for allowing a donkey to stray on the highway.- Samuel Amos, for the same offence with respect to a cow, was ordered to pay 5s. THE LITTLE BROWN JUG. Walter Singfield, for throwing a broken jug on the highway in Bassett-street, Barry Docks, was fined 5s. NUISANCE ON THE HIGHWAY. For committing anuisance in Greenwood-street, Barry Docks, Thomas Hart, Digby-street, was ordered to pay 5s. OBSCENE LANGUAGE. Mary Ann Seaward, for indulging, in obscene language on the highway in Evans-street, was fined 10s. AFRAID OF MARY. James Chorley assured the Bench that he was afraid of Mary Lynch, whom he charged with using threats towards him. What made the situation all the more alarming was the fact that Mary lives opposite him in Evans-street. — The Bench dismissed the case of threats but for being guilty of disorderly conduct, and using obscene language, the woman was fined 5s.
r !! ! iin - -"i~ —jjraiiitr…
r in -"i~ —jjraiiitr The Cycling World. -:0:- In these enlightened days, one hardly expects to hear of a fatal accident attributable to a brakeless machine, so general are brakes with all wheelmen. But apparently there are still a few who risk their lives by riding machines without this necessary accoutrement being fitted, and these few are gradually being brought to light at the coroner's court. In summing up at an inquest at Grimsby on the body of a youth who had met his death by a cycle accident, the coroner remarked that the case was another illustration of the folly of people riding without brakes. It was most dangerous. The driver of the cart implicated in the accident was exonerated from all blame. Heavy. damages were recently awarded a cyclist by Judge Parry, before whom the wheelman claimed damages from a carrier for injuries re- ceived. In awarding £ 15, his honour remarked that it was a common custom, and a very bad one, for drivers to cut into important thoroughfares without maffing the necessary detour to reach the proper side. Q One of the most remarkable sights in London from a cycling point of view, is the skill exhibited by the wheelmen of the metropolis in manipulating their machines through the maelstrom of traffic. One has only to pause in any of the great arteries of vehicular traction, and observe many cyclists dodging in and out among the cabs and buses in what seems a most perilous and reckless fashion, frequently taking what appear to be amazing risks, grazing the wheels of huge lumbering waggons, and diving under the very horses' heads, yet it is all practically child's play to experienced London rider. When the streets are wet and greasy the risks incurred are by no means light. A sudden swerve on the greasy asphalte, and the rider is down. But accidents are very infrequent, and it may rightly be attributed t2 the skill and expert- ness of the riders that pull them ihrStigh many a tight corner. Some people have exaggerated ideas of their speed and staying powers, and aspire to long distance record honours on the road when, in reality, they are not in a fit condition to undertake a journey of fifty or seventy-five miles. The results of some such record rides are indeed farsical, but an attempt made by a Sydney amateur to reduce the existing record between that city and Melborne is the most ridiculous on record. The self-estimated speedman abandoned the ride after covering some seventy miles of the journey, he then only being some seven hours behind the previous best on record. Road racing in Sydney, New South Wales, is likely to boom during the next few months-the winter season out there, The Duolop Tyre Company of Australia are instituting a aeries of amateur Inter-Club road contests, which will be carried out by the New South Wales Union. As this body has a very large number of Sydney clubs affiliated, the competition, for which the Dunlop Company are offering a £ 20 trophy and 4 gold medals to the winning team, is likely to lead to a series of keen rivalry between the amateur clubs. The great tyre company has always supported the pastime in this way out in the Antipodes. Are publicans beginning to realize that beer and spirits are not the only beverages that travellers require nowadays? We have noticed when cycling along any of the more frequented roads, that at many houses of call, tea may be obtained without the usual annoying wait or gruffiness on the part of the proprietor. And why should they demur at supplying tea ? Cer- tainly a little more trouble is attached to supplying it, but the profit at 2d. or 3d. per cup must be considerable. Of the many cycle grades and carnivals held annually in the provincial towns of Gre<u Britain, that carried cut by the wheelmen of Liverpool holds the record, both as regards the amount of subscriptions collected in the etveets and the enthusiasm of the participants and spectators. Last year the amount collected at the carnival reached nearly £ 800, and it is anticipated that the recent parade will prove equally successful. Traffic along the line of route was entirely sus- pended, and,the procession, which waa over amile long, paraded through miles of streets lined-with eager spectators. Carrying an iiiflator in the breast pocket is a very pernicious habit. If the rider had a fall he is liable to personal damage. There is no necessity to harbour the pump on your person when neat and noiseless clips like the Dunlop will attach the pump securely to the machine, aud they cost only a few pence. The motor car and motor bicycle are destined to play an important part in the future of the country mainly on account of the facilities afforded for rapid transit. It is the locomotion of the future. Other countries are as far in advance of us in regard to mechanical propulsion at the same time there is a very powerful reason why we are so dilatory about adapting the new order of things. P Britain is the land of the horse in fact the horse repository of the world. This being so it comes about tboa-a considerable amount of prejudice and difficulties have to be overcome in adopting the new state of affairs. It does not however require any extraordinary perception to see that the motor movement is right upon us. It is in fact bound to be the omnibus and the tram and indeed also the train of the future. For the present, however, it remains the pas. time of the classes, and until the advent of the moderate priced motor car, the horseless carriage is not yet reasonable enough in price to come within reach of the masses. This new form of industry is however giving employment and wages to thousands, and propagating a new form of employment. The only detrement lies in the demarcation regarding what may be termed a fast or slow speed, and it is doubtful if any hard and fast rale can be laid down in this regard. The speed of motors is or should be purely a question of environment. What damage pre- sents itself to anything on the country roads ivhen tha coast is clear ? They shon'id be allowed to travel at any pace they please. If they are a Sanger it is only to themselves. In traffic they should of course adapt themselves and accommo- date themselves to other users of the road.

PROVED BY WELSH EVIDENCE.-Dr Williams' pink pills for pale people are shown by evidence well authenticated to be an unfailing cure for rheumatism, sciatica, neuralgia, paralysis, loco- motor ataxy, St. Vitus' dance, nervous headache, and indigestion, also diseases of the blood, such as scrofula, chronic erysipelas, &c. They are a splendid tonic, and restore pale and sallow com- plexions to the glow of health, a specific for all troubles peculiar to the female sex, and in men effect a radical cure of all cases arising from worry, overwork, or excess. Dr Williams' pink pills are sold by all chemists, or may be had direct from Dr Williams' medicine company, of 46, Holborn Viaduct, London, at 2s 9d per box, or six boxes for 138 9d. They are never sold loose, and any substitutes so sold are useless the wooden box must be in a pink wrapper bearing the full name, Dr Williams' pink pills for pale people. The story of a Barry Dock child's cure, told in another column, has created widespread interest. |
A NEIGHBOURLY ACT.
A NEIGHBOURLY ACT. AND WHAT CAME OF IT IN BARRY DOCKS. An interesting instance of Welsh sympathy and neighbourliness of which the outside world gets an occasional glimpse when a mining or other disaster overwhelms the community, was brought to the attention of a Barry Dock News reporter the other day. At 25. Quarella-street, Cadoxton-Barry, lives Mr Robert C. Butcher, a relief clerk in the employ of the Barry and Vale of Glamorganshire Railway Company. His little twelve-year-old daughter* Charlotte Minnie, had been afflicted for some time with fainting fits and extreme weakness, and her case, a peculiar one, seemed to baffle the skill of a very able doctor. Among the neighbours, a Mrs Abel took a deep interest in the child's condition, and though the family doctor had ex- pressed the belief that Charlotte was going into MISS CHARLOTTE BUTCHER. (From a photo by Chas. Nesbitt, Barry Død) consumption, Mrs Abel brought Dr Williams' pink pills for pale people to the attention of the parents, pointing out cases in which they had effected remarkable cures, and as the Barry Deck News reporter, from personal investigation learned, this medicine has been the means of restoring the child to full health and activity. The facts were furnished by the parents Charlotte's suffering was very great," said Mr Butcher to the newspaperman. Her system be- came completely run down, and so weak did she become that she often fainted in trying to get about the house. Her appetite failed her, and she hardly ate enough to keep a sparrow alive. She was naturally a bright, intelligent, cheerful child, but she lost heart entirely, and appeared to be wasting away. We were very anxious as to her condition, and availed ourselves of every means in our power to effect her recovery, trying doctors' medicines and various other remedies, but all to no purpose whatever. In fact, the child seemed to be gradually getting worse, and the doctor feared that the little one was consumptive. One day, however, Mrs Butcher was advised by a neighbour, Mrs Abel, to try Dr Williams' pink pills for pale people, which Mrs Abel learned by the Barry Dock News had effected remarkable cures. My wife, ready to resort to any means which would be likely to effect any improvement, procured a box, and, incredible though it may seem, it is nevertheless a fact which we are pre- pared to vouch for fully, that after taking only two doses of the pills, the child ex- perienced visible relief, and did not have a return of the fainting fits at any time after commencing to take the pills. The child continued to take tfce pills for about a month, and she is now as wellu ever she was-hale and hearty, bright and cheer- ful. Dr Williams' pink pills stopped the wasting away, her appetite returned, and with this her strength quickly increased. Charlotte was soon able to throw off all the consumptive symptoms, and she is better now than she ever was in her life." Mrs Butcher, who was present, corroborated her husband's story in every particular, and gave the reporter a photograph of the child, taken since her recovery, for re-production. We have no objection to the publication of the facts," they said. Others may be greatly bene- fitted by learning of her experience."
CHURCH PARADE OF BARRY VOLUNTEERS.
CHURCH PARADE OF BARRY VOLUNTEERS. The annual Church Parade of the No 11 (Bany) Company 2nd Glamorgan Royal Garrison Volunteer Artillery was held on Sunday morning last, and was attended by about 150 officers and men, of whom 90 belonged to the Barry Company and 60 to the Penarth Company. The parade was under the command of Major S. A. Brain, the other non- commissioned officers in attendance being Colonel Fry (of the headquarters staff) and Lieutenant Carey Thomas. Sergeant-Major H. Watson, R.A. (Barry), and Sergeant-Major Da.we,R.A. (Penarth), were also present. The companies paraded at the Drill Hall, Cadoxton, and, headed by the Regimen- tal Band (under the direction of Mr W. A. J. Kelly), aceompanied by the Buglers' Band marched to St. Mary's Church, Barry Docks, for Divine service, which was conducted by the Rev H. S. F. Williams, B.A., who also preached an able and appropriate sermon from the text, No soldier on active service entangleth himself in the affairs of this life that he may please him who enrolled him as a soldier (II. Tim.. 2,4). The lessons were read by Mr G. F. Willett, and Mascagni's Intermazzo and Wagner's March in Lohengrin" were played by the band as the processional and recessional voluntaries. Mr W. T. Llewellyn, the choirmaster, presided at the organ. The parade to and from church was witnessed by a large number of the townspeople, and the church was crowded during the service.
