Miss Eichler began t< luffer from anaemia when she was 16 years of age The terrible disease soon had her fast in its grit and her sufferings were intensified by indigest'Oi and headaches. For five long weary years MJlI EichJer endeavoured to rid herself of the coni- plaint that was destroying her strength and taking all joy out of her life. She tried remed, tfter remedy without receiving permanent relief. She was always weak, always tired. She did not aava sufficient energy to join in the ordinary amusements of her age, and she simply drifted along, weary and sick and unhappy. Like mau another poor tirad soul, hope hnd almost left her, and flbe was beginning to fear that sbe never again would feel that thrill of perfect health, ihat glow. cf strength and energy which is the true secret of happineae. A friend who knew of Miss Louie Eicblet's Buffering advised her to try Iron-Ox Tonit Tablets. But fcr that friend's advice ac your Iron-Ox Tablets, I am perfectly certain I would ne er os. ve known the way to be well anci happy," writes Miss firehler. I snfiered from anemia since I was 16 veais old. and I am 21 now, so that is making five yeurs of agoD), i catering all the misery that anasmia can caasc. I suffered from mdigention as well and was verj nervous, weak, irritable, and miserable. I had almost given up all hope of ever being well and agrolig agikin. And when I began to take your tablets I scarcely expected they would do me any real good P-ftec I had teeo tokkiag them for a few days I was surprised to find that the distress after eating, which had been so very trying, bad almcst disappeared. I felt stronger, and my nerves did not give me so much trouble. I kept on with Iron Ox Tablets and pretty soon several of my friends remarked that I was looking better and brighter. Now I feel more like my own age, for tbe long suffering bad made me look and feel quite 30 instead of 21. I am so much stronger and better that nothing is a trouble to me, and 1 am able to take an interest in things and to do twice as much woik as I could before. You do not know what a relief it is to me to be free from pain, and to have lost the terrible feel- ing of depression and weakness. This is a message that every sufferer from Anemia should read and heed. In her own imple words Miss Eichler tells yon of the suffer- ing which lasted several years, of the terrible anaemic weakness which sapped her strength and darkened ber life, of the indigestion and distress after eating, which came to harass and annoy her already worn down system.

I To Check Municipal Corruption. MR DOVEY'S SUGGESTIONS. Cardiff's System of Accountancy. Mr C. E. Dovey, Cardiff borough auditor, made some important suggestions at a meeting on Tuesday evening in the borough treasurer's office of the Departmental Committee, Mr Lewis Morgan presiding. Incidentally Mr Dovey re- marked that the system followed by the Cardiff Corporation was the most modern of vhich be had any knowledge. Double entry, which was the system in vogue, was by no means an ancient form of book-keeping. On the contrary, it was up to date. There was, however, aome elabora- tion of detail which in his opinion was unneces- sary. There were, for instance, in the cash books of the six different departments some six or. seven thousand absolutely superfluous entries every year. Mr J. Staufield That is the antiquity of it. 1 will go into that later on," retorted Mr Dovey, who went on to say that there were sug- gestions of importance to be made. He felt some hesitation in making suggestions becaose the accounts were gone through by many expert men. Mr David Roberts waa largely responsible for the system, and did the auditing work when he was in his prime. A good deal of time was ab- sorbed in dealing with these six or seven thou- sand superfluous items that could be more pro- fitably given to administrative work. Two entries were, for instance, made in the. cash book when one might serve. He was of opinion that when payments were made they should go straight to the bank and agree with the pass book of the bank. These entries were at pre- sent duplicated. He would also like to see au alteration of the petty cash of the different de- partments. Instead of the petty cash going into the treasurer's department on certi- fied invoices, he suggested that it wonld be better if each department made a separate departmental petty cash book. A loose statement was subject to variation and alteration by the person who made it. The cash book was the only thing be found faulty in every department. Its defect lay in the fact that it coutainecf superfluous entries. The invoices were certified by the heads of departments, then passed by the Departmental Committee, and finally submitted to the Finance Committee and the Council. One great element of strength of that procedure was that the invoices were allocated and posted direct to the revenue account of the particular department. As to contracts, if dupli- cate orders were submitted to the borough accoun- tant he could prevent fraud by going to the dif- ferent places and verifying what he saw with what had been sent in. With regard to stores entries should be kept and submitted to the new borough accountant with a view to quantities being checked by an official whose identity would not be made known. He further suggested, with a view of checking anything like corruption, that contractors and tradesmen should be requested to enter into a Covenant Not to Bribe Officials, or give commissions, and in the event of corrup- tion being discovered they should be debarred for ever from having contracts or doing any business whatsoever with the Corporation. They ought to have one central department that would overhaul and enparvise all accounts. He did not suggest that Mr Harpur's department or the police de- partment shonld each have a oheck clerk, but that the work shoufd be administered from the head accountant's department. He approached this matter with considerable hesitation and Der- head accountant's department. He approached this matter with considerable hesitation and Der- sonal regret, because be was biund to recognise that so far as Air Greenhill was concerned they could not have a more conscientious or faithful servant. Mr G-reenhill bad, however, laboured in such a way bv making tbeae entries in the cash book that such matters for instance, all office discipline necessarily did not receive adequate attention. But Mr Greenhill's fidelity and zeal deserved the highest admiration. They had seen that evening that Mr Harrison had enough to do, and if he were givsn on occasions a little more assistance their accounts would be made up more fully to date. Mr Harrison was in arrear with the urban and water works. Mr Harrison Tbat is for the reason that I have too mnch to do, and it refers only to the accounts passed this day week. Mr Dovey Mr Harnson has a lot of detail to attend to. Mr Harrison added that abc-ut 600 invoices were passed by the Council only a little more thllo a week previously, and every one bad to be xllocated. Assistance as suggested in the Finance Committee on Monday would not be any good. Mr Dovey remarked that The Water Works Accountit were kept on a very good basis. The tenant immediately be entered a bouse signed a con- iract, and there was no possibility of escaping a debit. All irrecoverables and voids should bo checked by a representative from the borough accountant's office. There was nothing to pre- vent an official, if be wanted to do it. showing a house empty, but if the voida were checked from time to time that official would be careful. Councillor Staufield suggested that the water department should be asked to notify the urban authority when an application for water wae made. Mr Dovey said it would be a very good thing if that were done Councillor Veall said Mr Howell and Mr Jones had applied to the Public Works Committee for a monthly list of houses certified for occapa- tion. Mr Dovey, in the course of further remarks, said the general and sinking fnnds and capital accounts were kept in very good order, and he did not think a better system could be introduced. As they would uhortly be removing to now quarters, he suggested that all Seeuritiea Should be Classified anew and a fresh register made of all titles. Moreover, all documents should be fully gone into. It was possible a title deed might be missing. A legal gentleman ongbt to do this work. The borough accountant should illlueall receipt books and keep a register of thftm. All used books and duplicates should be returned to the borough ac- countant, who should be a% weighty and a good man, entitled to go into every department-& man ohutfleiont weight to carry ample authority. There ought to be an accountancy department, and the accountant should not touch any money at all. Nor shonld he be under the control of the borough treasurer. A lot of bookkeeping could be saved by having one accountaocy department. Time was lost by the accounts being allocated to the different departments and not brought into the treasurer's office until they were paid. It would be an advantage to have an actuarial valuation, but that would not come within the province of an auditor. Mr Dovey's concluding remark was that the bookkeeping was as good as could be expected under the circumstances. The Chairman Yes, under the circumstances —the circumstances we don't like. Mr Dovey was thanked for hie suggestions, which will be embodied in the committee's report, and in due time come before the Council for consideration. Mr Dovey was accompanied by Mr E. Hill, his chief assistant.

LIVE WIRE FALLS. Cardiff Tramway Mishap. A few minutes after 9 o'clock on Wednesday morning, as car No. 34 was passing along Work- ing-street, Cardiff,the overboal wire snapped, and fell opposite the entrance to tbe Queen-street Arcade. Luckilv there wete only three persons on the car at the time, and neither of these was touched by the 1, live wire, which fell into the roadway. Intimation automatically, reached tbe power station that something was wrong, and it was deemed advisable to at once cut off the current until the loose wire had been carefully fixed on the standard out of harm's way. As a result the traffic,whioh at tbat hour, so far aa the Doctø section is concerned, is heavy, was at a standstill. Mr Harry Ellin, brother of the Cardiff borough electrical engineer, who was coming in a car along Queen-street at the time of the mishap, was speedily on the spot, and directed the conductor to take the rope off the trolley. With this the 1, live wire was hauled up and made faat to the atandard at the aide of the road oat of barm's way This opera- tion did not take long, and immediately it was done the current was turned on again, the delay not exceeding t quarter of an hour. Traffic was resumed aa quickly as possible, but with some difficulty, as all the up can in Working-street had to get up apeed to carry them over the 50yards or so affected by the breakage. The conductor of the car had a very narrow escape. I was on the top of the car," be said to a member of our staff, when she wire came down. There were two passengers on the car, and it fell quite clear of them. I was standing at the rear end of the upper deck, and was just coming down, when tbe wire snapped close to the joint as our trolley-head nassad under it, and down came the wire. It struck me on the shoulder and then slipped off into the roadway on the right- hand side of the car. I felt no shock at all. bnt I can teU you it frightened me for tbe time. At the moment the Hne fell I didn't happen to be touching any ironwork on the car." tPhronghoat the day the care had to be run at their own momentum over tbe spot where the friletnis occurred, as it was impossible to mend the wire befoie night. The accident was one of a. nature that it ia impossible to foresee or guard against, as it is dne to the strain on the joint where the wire is soldered on to the insulating support caused by the surging of the wire. In Cardiff acci- dents of this kind have been, so far, remarkably few.

NO CANE POLICY. I Glamorganshire School Regulations. COMMITTEE AND TEACHERS. Probable Revision of New Rules. At a meeting of the Glamorgan Education Committee at Neath on Tuesday, Dr. Morris presiding, a deputation of the teachers of Gla- morgan laid before the committee their objec. tions to the new regulations. Before the Deputa- tion was admitted Miss E. P. Hughes said she was exceedingly sorry to eec that more than three had come on tbe deputation. This meant tbat some schools were short of teachers. The committee bad decided Lat three only should form the deputation. Dr. James said that he hid written that a deputation would be received, without stating the number, but he had wired the day before that the number must be limited to three. Miss Hughes I legret exceedingly that our I official did not give them our deci-iion iri good \jme. Alderman William .Llewellyn aaked if tbe members of the deputation had applied to Dr. James for permission to be present. Dr. James replied that he did not remember that they had. The deputation, numbering, 14, were then ad- mitted, their selected spokesmen being Mr Marshall Jackman, ex-president of the N.U.T. Mr Rhys Nicholas, Cwmavon, member of the executive of the N.O.T. and Mr A.. A. Thomas, barrister, legal adviser to the Uuioo. Mr Jackman said that at the request of the teachers of Glamorgan he had gone through the regulations. There were four points in connec- tion with them which be should like to submit to the committee. The first was as to corporal punishment. He thought that the majority of the education aatborities had Come to the con. clusion that a certain amount of corporal punish- ment was necessary, though it was very desirable to reduce it to the smallest possible minimusi, and tbat it sboald only be given under certain regulations. There should be no irregular punishment and no panishment with irregular instruments. But moat education authorities bad also come to the conclusion that where there was more than one certificated teacher in the school the head teacher could delegtlte. power to the other certificated teachers to inflict corporal punishment for class offences, iba bead teacher punishing more seriouB offences. These regulations were in force under the London County Council, and the teachers of Glamorgan afskad that they should be introduced into the schools of that county. The power to puuisb could of course be taken away fiom any teacher who abused it. Another point was as to the regulation that teachers should attend to and supervise the children who remained ia the school for the dinner hour. The deputation claimed that if a teacher was kept during the dinner hour he should have some time off during the afternoon to get food or rest. It would also be felt by the beat teachers to be rather an indignity to have to keep a register accounting for his time. In no other part of the country Wt\8 anch a register kept. The teachers considered the time book, in which was entered the time of coming and leaving, to be quite sufficient. The fourth and last point was the regulation that the clerical work of the school 3hould not be done during school hours. Mr Jackman said that darinx the grouping of classes there would be no interference with the school Hork if the opportunity was taken to enter up j the clerical work, and tba deputation hoped that this would be allowed. In conclusion. Mr Jack- man hoped the committee would take the repreaentatiVH teachers into their confidence. Mr Rhys Nicholas asked the committee to agree to a consultation with the head teachers. He respectfully bogged them to allow the regu- lations to go to 9, loint committee on which lepre- seotatives of tbe Education Committee could meet the representatives of the teachers of the county. Dr. Morris said the regulations had been care- fully gone into by the committee, who had had before them o great many thinas which guided them in forming the regulations. As to corporal punishment, the regulation was only formed on the lines of what the Board of Education itself thought desirable, for in their revised instructions of 1901 the Board asked that a separate book for punishments should be kept, aDd that any Crime o: corporal punishment should be entered in that book. That was the real reason for the rule, All the other rules had also been curefuliy considered. But he thought be might say that the committee would give their consideration to the views which the deputation bad expressed if they would give a pledge, with- out reservation, that the teachers throughout out reservation, I that the teachers throughout the county would loyally carry out the regula- tions in letter and spirit. The committee had a. right to ask for tbis pledge, considering the concerted action of the teachers in the Port Talbot group to evade tbe instructions of tbe committee,ePecislIt with regard to the keeping of the time book. ftlr Jackman, on behalf of the Central Execu- tive, said that If there was no legal position involved be would advise the teachers to Rive this pledge, and trust to the committee to con- aider their representations. Dr. Morris Will yon give us a definite pledge to carry out the regulations ? Mr Jackman If there is no legal position involved I should advise them to do so. Mr T. M. Franklen (clerk of the committee) put it to Mr Jackman that if there was a legal position involved, would the teachers wish to raise the question, and would they be willing for the committee to take proceedings against them and put up with the consequences ? If the teacherE took the point that they were trans- ferred officers from the old Sebool Boards would Mr Jackman advise them to contest it ? Mr A. A. Thomas I hope Glamorgan is not going to be made a leading case. Mr Franklen I sincerely hope not, bat if you wish to raise a law snit jon must find a com- mittee. Mr Thomas I don't think our Executive wish to be it variance with Glamorgan unless it/Js absolutely necessary, and taking the present position in Glamorgan it doel not appear to me that there is any legal position involved. Mr Franklen No doubt if yon advise yonr teachers that the committee wiU consider the regulations. Mr Jackman said that as it could be done without prejudice be would advise the teachers to give the pledge asked for. Mr Rhys Nicholas gave the pledge, and pro. mised to circularise the teachers. The deputation then withdrew. Alderman Hughes moved that the regulations be considered by the Elementary School Teachers Sub-Committee, to see whether they would recommend any modifications in accordance with the views expressed by the deputation. The resolution was carried unanimously.

A GRATEFUL MOTHER. TELLt3 THE VALUE OF A GOOD FOOD. A mother of a large family Jiving at Bexley Heath, Kent, writes as follows Last November my little boy of four waa suddenly stricken down and grew so ill the doctor said be could not possibly live. After a while the doctor told us he couldn't do any more for him, but he might with care linger on in this state for a few weeks or months longer. Well, I did not give up hope entirely, but tried all kinds of different foods, but the boy grew thinner and weaker, and his little stomachy rejected all nour. ishment. 10ne day as I nt beside his couch read- ing I saw an advertisement about Grape-Nuts, and I aaked my hnsband to bring home a packet, which be did the next day. I soaked a teaapoon- ful in milk, warming it in ths oven, and fed the little boy with it then waited for him to vomit it op, aa he usually did after taking any food. I wae much surprised, for he kept it down an-I slept well for some hours. Then I repeated the experiment, and persevered with it, gradually giving him a little more each time, till he could take the proper qaantity Gradually he got wet!, and now enjoys good health and is strong and Wiry. and bal Kone to school this morning. My eldest girl suffered from chrome indiges- tion, and after eating would frequently seream with pain her face would look pinched and grey, and the doctor conldn t and didn't onre her, and she was growing a nervous, fidgety child. Since using Grape-Nats she is sturdy, strong, healthy, and a happv little girl, able to e&t well, sltep well, play and work well at school. Our youngest child was 80 tiny and fragile, had a naaty cough ever since she waa bom. At 17 months abe had not a tooth nor a sign of one. She could not stand, nor did she evince » desire to do so, and she never was well a. weak together. I began giving her Grape-Nuts, with these happy results she has cut 10 tooth in rapid succession, she ranu ab:)ot everywhere, and tbis all came about through using Gratpe-Nuts. You csn under- atand why I value ibe food for adults or babes." There's a reason why Grape-Nuts should have accomplished the remarkable results described above, when other foods and medicine failed thousands of other mothers have fed their families into health on Graps-Nuts.

The constant kneeling brought on pains and swellings in my legs. a vein. A doctor treated me successfully for that, but soon a small sore appeared on the Then one office cleaning. thirteen years ago, I tripped over a loose piece of carpet and burst g other leg, and, probably through neglect or dye from my stocking, it developed into a running wound. The pain and inflammation were often almost unbearable. Both limbs became tender, discoloured, and Were L J, sometimes swollen. I had varicose veins, and periodically the skin would i>— fl?' become scurfy, break out in a rash, and scale or peel off.

To Recover Possession a OF A FISHGUARD RESIDENCE. Porth Fireman's Romantic Story. At the Haverfordweat County Court on Tues- day (before Judee Bishop;, the struggle to re, cover possession of the Golden Lion, Fishguard, formerly a publichouse, which bas been carried on for about 20 years by a colliery tireman at Portb, was advanced a further siatte, when a second trial tooklplace. At the first hearing of the case Lewis Wilson, the plaintiff, sought to oust the present tenant, Gwen ^Nicholas, on the ground that be was heir-at-law. He failed because the Judge held that he had not proved a payment of rent by a former tenant, Mary Adams, by which he alleged she surrendered a possessory title that ahe had set up by undis- puted possession for more than 12 years. Tbe property bad been lost to tbe family for some 30 yeats, but Wilson had succeeded iu establishing his title as heir-at-law to his great-grandfather, by meanc of about 80 certificates of birtbs, marriages, and deaths, the collection of which had entailed bis travelling over 17,000 miles, and bad run up expenses amounting to over JE300. Unfortunately, a posseasory title had been set up, and this proved a stumbling block, which was his undoing. iOn Tuesday a fresh trial took place on different grounds. Mary Adams had conveyed the pre- mises in 1899 to a woman named Mary Thomas, and from this latter person Wilson obtained a conveyance for tbe ram of £ 5 since the previous bearing. The defence, however, increased tbe complications by setting up another conveyance. This was executed by Mary Adams in 1901, in favour of the late Robert Lewis, the brewer from whom the had the supplies for the house as locg as the licence existed. It was contended by the plaintiff that only 11 years bad elapsed at the date of the conveyance since the last proved payment of reut in 1880, and that therefore Mrs Adame could not convey what was not hers. To this it was replied that Mrs Adams' conveyance was a grant to Lewis of an interest which could legally by conveyed, bequeathed, or devised, and that she could not afterwards alter tbis in favour of another. A good many witnesses were called to prove the various documents and circum- stances relied upon by the parties, and the hear- ing occupied a long time. Mr Marlay Samson (instructed by Mr W. J. Jones, Haverfordwest) was for plaintiff, and Mr Lleufer Thomas (in- structed by Mr W. T. 8. Tombs, Fishguard) was for the defendant, Gwen Nicholas, now the tenant of Robert Lewis's executora. His Honour reserved judgment.

Sailor's Mad Act. a LEAP INTO THE ELY RIVER. Desperate Man Stabs Himself in the Water. On Saturday afternoort, about 3 o'clock, a drunken sarilor leaped from the parapet of the toll bridge on the Pemrth-road into the Ely River. The tide was half-flood at the time, and the man, who speedily rose to the surface after his ptunge, struck out and swam strongly up stream. Albert Jtmes Smele: the ticket collec- tor at the toll bridge, ran along the bank and called out to the man to swim ajshore, but the cailor replied All right," and was eeen to strike himself several times on the left side. Sboitly afterwards he disaopeared. The palice were advised of the occurrence, and an hour and a quarter later P.C. Welsber succeeded in getting the body ashore. It was found on examination to have seven stabs on the left side, and there appears no room to doubt that these were inflicted by deceased himself while in the water. The body is that of a powerfully-built man apparently about 45 years of age In the pockets were found letters addressed to John McMullan, of the a-9 Cornelian, which were addressed to Bute-street, Cardiff, Dock-street, Newport, and West-street, Glasgow. The circumstances attending the sensational suicide in Ely River, Cardiff, on Saturday after- noon were inquired into before Mr E. B. Reece, coroner, and a jury, on Tuesday afternoon. Neill McMillan, of Sandbank, Argyllshire, letter carrier, identified the body as that of his brother. John McMillan (23), seaman. It was three months since witness saw him in Scotland, and he then appeared well both physically and meu- -tally. Albert James Smale, ticket collector at the tollgate, filandougb, said he saw deceased about 3 p.m. on Saturday in the river Ely, about 50 yards below the bridge. His attention was drawn by people shouting on the bridge. Wit- ness went down the bank of the river on the Cardiff side. Witness bhaated to deceased, who was swimming strongly down the river, to come ant, but deceased reolied All right." After swimming 300 yards deceased disaopeared. Wit- ness saw him knocking himself with his right hand, but could not see whether he had anything in his hand. Witness swam in *nd fetched out the man's coat. He would have swam ont to the man, but had no idea that the latter was in diffi- culties. Deceased didn't struggle at all, but went dowo like a stone. P.0. Wiltshire deposed to recovering the body, on which were seven stab wounds. In the coat pocket were fonr letters, but no money or anything of value. The letters were of a private character, and contained nothing relating to any intention to commit suicide. Dr. Pittara said that ou examining the body he found on the left side of the chest, over the he found on the left side of the chest, over the I region of the heart, seven stab woundti the deepest of which was an inch and a half. They appeared to have been self-inflicted. He did not think these had anything to do with the cause of death, which he attributed to drowning. P.C. Price, coroner's officer, said that the de- ceased was discharged from a xteamer at New- port a few weeks ago, and had since been at Barty and Cardiff. The jury returned a verdict of "/Suicide," but there was no evidence to show the state of his mind. The Coroner I woold almost advise that you should say he was in a state of insanity. The man must havo been in a state of frenzy. Of coarse I will take your verdict. The jury again consulted, and altered their verdict to one of Temporary insanity."
