Health Wrecked by Influenza. A Victim of the Great Scourge tells of the Splendid ¡ Health-building Effects of Dr. Cassell's Tablets. Mr. G. A.

It came 011 one Saturday in the train, and how I got home I simply don't know. Until the following Tuesday I knew nothing. All that time 1 was fevered and rambling in my talk. When I did become conscious I was in great pain. My head seemed like to split and the pain in my joints was in tense. We had medical advice and medi cine, but no benefit resulted, and I was confined to bed with seemingly little hop of getting out of it. I had been in thiG condition a fortnight when I was advised to try Dr. Cassell's Tablets, and am truly thankful I did. What I had spent Afr. G..A Rot?rn6nter.. pounds trying to accomplish these wonderful Tablets did for me at the cost of a few shillings. Very soon I felt better, and. when 1 had finishes one box the, terrihle p&in was gone from my head, and I was feeling stronger and brighter altogether. I continued and soon was back aj: business quite cured. At the present time I feel in excellent health. It? ???B  I t?sC? Dr. Cassell's. Prices— 1/3 & 3/- (the 3/- size being the more ono m ical).

STEAMER CN rIRE.
STEAMER CN rIRE. ———— ——— -— Peace Night Flare at Swansea Docks. The only untoward eront that occurred .t Swansea on Saturday was the dis- eovery of an outbreak of fire in the hold qf the fine new steamship Montrose, which is lying in the Kintts Dock. A part of her cargo, steel tonnage was being discharged, and this, it is supposed, had amongst it some infiamhable matter. The fire broke out in No. 2 hold, and it was allayed with great difficulty, not- withstanding the untiring efforts "of the Police Firo Br'gade under Inspector Evans, the fire being finally extinguished at 2.30 a.,m. on Sunday. Very little damage was done to the steamer.

CARPENTIER WINS. I | In the big fight in Paris on Saturday night Georges Carpentier, the French light-heavy-weight champion of Europe, beat Dick Smith, the champion of Eng- land, in the eigth round. Carpentier finished the fight in that round by two upper cuts, followed by a left hook to the jaw. 
The Day's gossip.
The Day's gossip. "Leader" Office, Monday. The decorations of Little Gam-street and of Aiadoc-street—which I shall choose as typical of all the little streets—are not likely to receive the honour of inclusicu in the aceouiitr,, glveu in other columns of the Celebrations; therefore I want to give pride of place here to the side streets, with their home- made Hags, their modest streamers, their general air of rejoicing. Scarcely a house in the Saiidfields but sported a flag. No one can accuse the district of being beau- tiful; but to the spiritual eye these little bits of bunting, displayed in a way that showed that hours of anxious thought had been given to secure the best effects, made it lovely indeed on Saturday. The Unofficial Bonfires. I warmed myself at eleven OdOCK at the Municipal Bonfire on Town Hill, and watched the blazes on Kilvey and Mumbles Hills, and at Margam, and the refleotillnsodn,tlie clouds from the Cimla fire; but far more interesting were the unofficial bonfires in the streets. The Graig celebrated with tremendous spirit, and all the way from the top of Poppet" Hill to the Dyfatty Park, the people piled up the faggots and made con- flagrations. In the west, I caught the flare of something doing" near or m SI. James's Park;; and as for the Prom- enade and Ghaddesley-terrace, they re- joiaed royally. There were four official bonfires. I should say there ware four hundred unofficial ones. Fireworks. ;1 Nearly everybody regretted the absence of official fireworks, although we made up for it individually! The small boy had a ¡,eçtly wonderful time with his crackers and it would be an interesting computa- tion to work out how much we spent, in the mass, on rockets. Froni the point of view of economy, it would have e cheapen had the Corporation decided u poa a display; for every father of a family, had to make up for void. And expen- sive business it was, too! A, little "three bob divertation made hardly any show; a rocket which went bang! and did nothing else, sixpence; another which dropped one star, fourpence; Roman candles, and golden fire, one and ten; squibs," tenpence a packet But there were men buying on Friday who spent ten shillings and a sovereign, quite cheerfully. How much it cost the Promenade and Chaddesley-terrace in fireworks I woulii like to know! Mr. Tweeney's Fishes. V f The most novel decoration was that hanging between Mr. Tweeney's house in Cal vert-terraoe and the Tenby CIUN--two huge paper fishes, brilliantly coloured. What their peace significance, was I cannot pretend to know, hut they drew everyone's notice. I Grannie. I At the town toa to the wives and-"the mothers and children of the fallen, it was my job to the guests tt; the tables and to see that they were comfort- able.

If the band Wl\.DÜ a stronger testimonial, I am willing to go to any extent in sheer thankfulness for its goodness on Saturday. A Story of France.

SERIOUS I KIDNEY TROUBLE COMPLETELY CURED. I A BUSINESS MAN'S EXPERIENCE. I A business man writes from the West of England: If I suffered perfect agony with gravel and serious kidney trouble, and was advised an operation. However, see- ing an advertisement of Baker's Back- ache Pellets, I decided to give them a trial, and am pleased to say that after taking one box I was completely cured and free from pain. This is now four four ijaonths since, and I am happy to say there has been no return of the tronble. I think Baker's Backache Pet- tets are a wonderful medicine. Baker's backache Pellets are a, positive cure for Backache, Rheumatism, Lumbago, Scia- tica., Gravel, Dizziness, and all Kidney Troubles. They only cost Is. 3d. per box from Boots, Taylors, and nll chemists, or poet free per return direct irom Baker's Medicine Co., Ltd., 36, White- friirs-street, London E.C.4..

TO^^Tase j d Every Pictu,e lell. a Stor"  ATEVER wore women more active than now-nor so courageous. Where- ever the need-a woman steps in- nothing daunts her. And she succeeds. But the worry and etrain of unac- customed tasks are menaces to health. They, emphasise an urgent necessity, and one which haa no substitute in medicines. Women must make time for rest, fresh air and recreation. These, with simple diet, regular habits, and firmly renewed optimism, combine the surest means for easing every task. A Well-wisher's Advice On December 2nd, 1899, Mrs. A. Bar- ton, of 33 Wath-road, Mexborough, 6aid:—" Until some months ago I had rheumatism, urinary troubles and kid- ney complaint, following rheumatic fever brought on by overwork and worry. I was never free from discomfort in one form or another. My lipihs and back and joints were constantly pain- ful, and I had but little rest day and night. Frequently the rheumatism kept me to my bed, and I spent no end of money seeking for a ransdy. It was all thrown away until I tried Doan's Backache Kidney Pills. I foil lowed directions carefully, anu thereby helped the medi- cine to gradually ease my pains and ultimately cure my rheumatism and every other sign of kidney weakness. I strongly recommend this honest kidney medicine. 19 Years' Support On October 4th, 1918, Mrs. Barton said, Doeli's Pills rid me of my kidney troubles and rheumatism over eighteen years ago, and I have had very good health during all these years. (Signed) A. Barton." Doan's Pills help lighten women's tasks. They help by averting ancemia, I ianguor, dizziness, specks before the } eyes, dropsical swellings, backache, !j nervousness and urinary troubles. They ( prevent these early kidney Wymptoms j rrom developing, and are widely recom- mended for permanently relieving even | advanced kidney disease. Doan's Pills ,i,.f affect the bowels. I NOTE.-Don't merely ask fo.r "backache j pIUs" or "kidney pills. Do as Mrs. Barton did. Ask for and Insist upon Dean's fjl Backache Kidney Pills.
