Nid oedd y cwbl a welem ni ond cwr o'r gogoniant—rhyw ymyl o'r fantell nefolaidd a wisgai Anian yno." Because "I only pity those who have not visited this beautiful Valley. It has been my fortune to travel over a good portion of Europe, but in all Europe I have never seen anything that had come hpme thoroughly to my heart for its exceeding beauty, for the home charm of the scenery, mingled with a taste of wildness-for that to a Scotchman, like myself, has a singular fascination—I have seen nothing I could place side by side with the Valley of the Dee." -Sir THEODORE MARTIN, K.C.B., K.C.V. Because "of all the beautiful spots in which Wales abounds, there is no more charming than the lovely Vale of Llangollen. It has long been justly famed as p health resort, and the exquisite beauty of its walks and drives, and the neatness, cleanliness, and pleasantness of the town of Llangollen renders it especially attractive even to ordinary visitors, but to the artist it offers endless subjects for study and treatment, whilst the student of science can always find there a great store of objects worthy of the most careful attention." RESEARCH." Because of its kind there is nothing more charming in Great Britain, and one may wander far on the Continent, amidst the glories of Switzerland and Italy, to come back with appetite as keen as ever for these charms of form and colour, of wooded slopes and graceful sweep of green mountain sides, and purple patches of heather which Scotland herself might envy, and more bewitching still, patchworks of heath and gorse, of green, and purple, and gold, a livery of Nature which no painter would be bold enough to picture on his canvas in all its glowing colours. You pass from the sylvan beauty of long reaches of the Dee, climb the gently rising hills, the surprise of fresh oveliness at every turn, when, suddenly, before you lies the distant line of the Irish Sea; the yellow sand gleam in the sunshine; the light falls on white saisg and perhaps the sunset floods the peaks and pinnacl of Snowdonia." —"OSWESTRY ADVERTISER."

RHEUMATISM, PAINS IN THE BACK, &c. A MODERN MIRACLE. SIR,—I feel it my duty to inform you of the miraculous cure I have received from rheumatism, &c., by taking your "Hughes's Blood Pills." I suffered great pains and agony for about three years. I was worn, to a skeleton, unable to move from bed for weeks together, every joint in my body was swollen and very painful. I tried many doctors for relief, also Turkish baths, hot salt water baths, electric belts, &c., none of them did me any good. About the third year of my sufferings from rheumatism, I had a sore lip, very much like cancer. I was advised to try your Hughes's Blood Pills for it, which I did. When taking the third box I found the rheumatic pains leaving me to my great astonishment, so I kept on taking them, never dreaming that they would cure me of rheumatism, but in six months' time I was able to take a journey of four miles on foot, when before I was quite a cripple, doubled up and compelled to leave the police force, being unfit for active service. Now I am as well as ever, strong, active, and agile, every limb pliable and free from any trace of pain. I must praise and highly recommend them to all who suffer from rheumatism and blood distemper. Never was such a cnre known. THOS. HUGHES. Ex-Inspector of Police, Dolwen, Llanfallteg, Carmarthenshire. HEADACHE AND CONSTIPATION. SIB,—Kindly accept my sincere thanks for the good your "Hu&HEs's BLOOD PILLS" have done me. Of late years I have suffered considerable from severe bilious attacks, disordered liver, and constipation, with sick headaches. It would be impossible for me to enumerate the many patent medicines I have tried to no avail. Before I had taken half a box of yonr Pills I experienced improve- ment, I perserved with them, and amhapny to say that I am now quite well. D. J. BARKER. Greenfield Buildings, Bath.

ACTION AGAINST THE BRYMBO WATERWORKS COMPANY. A point of considerable interest to water con- sumers was argued before His Honour Judge Lloyd at the Wrexham County Court on Saturday. Mr. Edwin Stanley Ciarke, of Oak Alyn, Gwersyllt. y proprietor of the Liny Hall Colliery, sued the Brymbo Waterworks Company for A25 18s., being a sum of money paid by him under duress.—From the opening statement of Mr. S. Moss, M.P., who was instructed by Messrs. Walker. Smith, and Way, Chester, for the plaintiff, it appeared that there had been difficulties between Mr. Clarke and the company since 1896. the latter claiming that the quantity of water consumed at plaintiff's residence was in excess of that necessary for domestic purposes. The rate paid by Mr. Clarke was £1148. per quarter, in addition to which he paid for the use of water for the gardens, for horses, carriages, and a fire-plug,' these "extras" bringing up the amount payable' quarterly to Y,2 18s. But towards the end of 1896 the company, having affixed a meter at the junction of their mains with the plaintiff's service pipes, wrote pointing out that the meter showed the average supply to be 1,466 gallonss daily. They offered to supply him with 34,000 gallons per quarter in return for the rate of 34s., and any quantity in excess would be charged at the rate of Is. per thousand gallons. Plaintiff did not accept this offer, and after lengthy correspondence the company in September, 1897, cut off the supply to Oak Alyn. Plaintiff then laid a pipe to the colliery, where he was supplied with water for trade purposes, and thus drew a supply for domestic purposes, but in May of the present year the company claimed a sum of £ 25 /18a.. being the amount which would have been due Ulldllr the arrangement for a supply by meter, and threatened that if this were not paid the supply to the colliery would be cut off. Under these circumstances the amount was paid after the supply was cut off. Mr. Tobin (who was instructed by Mr. J. Hopley Pierce, on behalf of the defendant company) sub- mitted that even if the cutting-off in May, 1899, was a wrongful act, the plaintiff was out of court, his remedy being to summon the company before justices for penalties. Instead of adopting that remedy, he said to the company Please continue to supply me for all three purposes-colliery, domestic, and other than domestic." With regard to two of these purposes, he had no right to make the demand he did, while as to the eupniy for domestic purposes it was necessary that he should tender the rate and lay a half-inch pipe. The latter condition he had not fulfilled, the pipe being a Jin. The company had a right to say, as they did, that they would supply plaintiff with water, even for his house, until he paid such a sum as they demanded. But they had all along been willing to supply him with 34,000 gallons of water per quarter—or 51 gallons per diem for each of the seven occupants of the house-foe £ 1 14s., the quarterly rate, and to supply him with water for other than domestic purposes at Is. per thousand gallons. He asked His Honour to say that the company had fulfilled their obligations, and that the plaintiff was not entitled to succeed. His Honour reserved judgment.

—f. — THE CLERKSHIP OF THE RUTHIN JUSTICES. RESIGNATION OF THE NEWLY-APPOINTED CLERK. At Monday's sitting of the magistrates of Ruthin presided over by Chancellor Bulkeley-Jones, the following letter was read fr -mi Mr. R. Humphreys Roberts, solicitor, Denbigh, resigning the office of clerk to the justices, to which he was elected a few weeks ago. The letter was to the following effect :— "It is with great reluctance that I write to advise you that unexpected circumstances have arisen which makes it impossible for me to accept the position to which nine out of the twelve justices present at the court on Monday week were good enough to elect me, that of clerk, I need here in explanation only say I am well advised that an agitation is already on foot to, in the event of my taking up the office, deprive me not only of the appointment of county accountant, but also that inquiry has been made and statistics taken fot the purpose of a reduction of the salary of the clerk to the justices by £ 75 per annum. I was quite prepared to sacrifice the clerkship of the Denbigh School Board, which I have held for twenty-five years, and, in order to comply with the decision of the court, to take up my residence at Ruthin but to jeopardise, with an almost certainty of loss, the appointment held under the County Couucil, and a prospect of such reduction as is desired in the salary of the justices' clerk, is more than I can accept. If I had for one moment anticipated it possible for such a course to be taken, or even suggested, I would not have put myself forward for the appointment, and given those gentle- men who were good enough to give me their support trouble to such an end. As it is, I can only apologise for the course I am thus compelled to take, and to express regret for any, inconvenience I may by so doing cause the eourt." The chairman said the only course open to the magistrates in this unexpected event was to retire and consider what should be done. Captain Cole I should like to say one word on this matter before we retire. I think this enforced retirement of Mr. Humphreys Roberts is one of the most disgraceful and disgusting cases I have ever heard of in my life. Here is a gentleman suitable in every possible way for the office-a first-class lawyer and a Welshman. He is a Welsh scholar, but he had one glaring fault in the opinion of a certain section of that august body the Denbighshire County Council. He is a Churchman. That was the whole pith of the matter—every bit of it. If these small elections are to be fought on political prinoipels I think men should stand up, and hit straight from the shoulder, and not do a nasty, sneaking thing like this. It is a regular case of hitting a man below the belt. The justices then retired, but what decision they arrived at is not at present known. The reading of the letter and Captain Cole's remarks caused considerable sensation in eourt. As Mr. Fanning's term of office expired with the holding of this court, the magistrates are now without a clerk.

Y mae yn arferiad a rheol gan Gymmanfa y Bedyddwyr i ganiatau i l'yw Ie bob blwyddyn anfon gweinidog drwy gylch y gymmanfa i bregethu ae i gasglu tuagat dalu dyled fydd yn aros ar y capel, &c., ae y mae y Parch. H. D. Jones, gweinidog Dyffryn Ardudwy. ar ei daith i'r amcan hwnw yn bresennol. Yr oedd yn pregethu yn y Vron a'r Garth ddydd Sul, yn Rhiwabon nos Lun, ac yn Cefn Bychan nos Fawrth.

Er hyny y mae achosion ag sydd yn gorfodi pobl dawel a heddychlawn i gwyno. A gwneir sylw yma o'r cwynion a glywir, heb enwi ardal, na lie, na phersonau. Y mae y cwynion fod bechgyn yn tanio clecars ac yn eu rhoddi dan ddrysau tai; rhai yn swnio o amgylch tai yn y aos fod rhai yn gwneyd gwawd o hen bobl tra yn eerdded yr heolydd, ac os dywedant ryw air wrthynt am eu bod yn eu gwawdio byddant yn eu dynwared yn siarad ac yn chwerthin fel yr ynfydion y sonia Solomon am danynt; cwynir fod rhywrai yn agor drysau siopau, ac ar ol canu y gloch yn rhedeg o'r golwg. Gobeithir na bydd raid i bobl sydd yn cael eu poeni felly ddwyn y rhai a'u poenant i afael cyfraith, a thrwy hyny eu gwneyd yn adnabyddus fel trosedd- wyr y gyfraith ar goedd y wlad, ac i'w henwau fod yn ysgrifenedig ar lyfrau eofnodion troseddwyr i gael eu darilen gan yr oas hon a chan yr oesau a ddel. Gobeithir hefyd na raid argraphu ea henwau ar ddalenau yr ua papur newydd chwaith. Fechgyn anwyl pob cymmydogaeth dysgwch foesau da, iaith weddus. ac ymddygiadau parchus. Ofnwch Dduw, a pherweh ddynion. Neu. os mynwch fyned yn mlaen yn debyg i ddesgrifiad llinellau cyntaf y penill canlynol, piediwch ac anghofio y llinell olaf- "Gwna'n llawen wr o fewn dy fro, A chwardd tra dalio'r dydd Nac ofna neb, ac na thrista Ond, COFIA'R FARN A FYDD." —EBEN FARDD Y mae son hefyd am ryw un yn myned i brynu ar enw pobl (heb dalu) ao yn gwasgaru y pethau hyny yn y man yma a'r man caw, mewn dull diarncan a digrifol. Mae rhai pobl yn meddwl fod y mantcision addysg helaeth sydd yn y blynydd- oedd presennol yn achosi i blant fod yn waeth, ond nis gellir rhoddi bai ar addys dda nac ar fanteision ami. Gall llawer o amser segir fod yn felldith i gymmeriadau da os na bydd ganddynt rywbeth da i wneyd yn yr oriau hamddenol. Y mae gan satan waith i bob segir, ac y mae ef yn rhy brysur "yn eisteddfa y gwatwarwyr" i fyned i gyfrinach y rhai diwyd.—GOBEB.
