The Pictures I Have been chosen with rare discrimination, and will be found to equal in interes any of the former parts. As to what these Photographs represent, let it merely be stated that they are the selection of John L. Stoddard, a man, than whom there is no superior in con nection with such a task. In a condensed and highly entertaining manner Mr. Stoddard describes what has impressed him, and our readers and all those who are induced to profit by our offer and obtain our Portfolio of Photographs, have the benefit of his experience, his judgment, his artistic ability, and his admirable descriptive powers. In the wealthiest and most lavishly adorned homes thit sollection could but prove an added adornment, and it certainly will be an acquisi-s tion to the best and most complete libraries. In what we have said about our Portfolio of Photographs we have not exaggerated a particle, and its value must therefore be at once apparent. We are distributing thousands upon thousands of 3>f them, and it is this fact alone which enables uslo supply them at so small a irice to the purchaser. In our Portfolios are contained many lessons of great ralue, and they are one and all presented in a way to attract everyone. In four weeks' time, the final part will be issued, and as we shall shortly thereafter close our accounts in connection with this scheme, we advise all those who have not purchased the earlier parts to order them from their Newsagents or from any of the Offices of the Westei*n Mail, without delay. When completed the Volume will be the handsomest and most instructive and entertaining ever published, and will consist of SIXTEEN PORTFOLIOS, Each containing r, Sixteen Exquisite Photographic Views. The Price of each series is one Coupon and 8IXPEN CE Or, by Post, SEVENPENCE HALF-PENNY. a At the head of this column we print a coupon. If you will cut it out and send it to us with sevenpence halfpenny worth of postage stamps, to pay the expense of postage, wrapping, etc., we will send Series Number 12 or any earlier number of our Grand Art Album. Or if you will take a Coupon and Sixpence to any of our Offices, or to any Newsagent selling the Western Mail, you will receive, in return therefor, one of these charming and artistic Portfolios.

PORTFOLIO CASES. WE have received from the Manufacturers Samples of Portfolio Cases, designed expressly for containing the Sixteen Parts of our Art Album. They are HIGHLY EMBOSSED AND GILDED, are made with Flaps to protect the edges of the books, and are provided with Tapes for the purpose of securely preserving them. Desiring to increase the popularity of our Albums by pursuing the POLICY OF LIBERALITY towards our Subscribers, which has characterised the production of these exquisite views, we have made arrangements which enable us to offer the cases at 2s. Each. This sum should be given to a Newsagent, or sent to us, with 6d. to cover postage. This should be done immediately, as we must RECEIVE ORDERS AT ONCE, n order to arrange for the supply from the manufacturers. The loose parts are TOO HANDSOME TO SPOIL, y letting them lie about, when at so small a cost they can be made a PERMANENT ORNAMENT or every drawing-room table. pHIL PHILLIPS, PAWNBROKER AND WHOLESALE JEWELLER 249 ST.

HEATH ANJ) gONS c ARDIFF, pONTYPRIDD, AND L ONDON, piANOFORTE AND 0 RGAN MERCHANrrS. (FROM SOOTH WALES DAILY XEWS, 9TH JANUARY, 1894.) Vebdict OF Nink Hundred."—Under this title Messrs. R. J. Heath and Sons, Queen-street, Cardiff, pianoforte makers, organ guilders, and music ware- housemen, have collected an imposing array of testi- monials and Press opinions relating to the quality of the musical instruments supplied by them. The firm is so well known in Cardilf. and. indeed, throughout South Wales and the West of England that it is hardly necessary here to dwell upon its influence and commanding position. This collection of testimonial" serves, however, to do something more than certify to the excellence of the instruments furnished oy Messrs. Heath and Sons. It shows, in a sense, how steady is the growth among the general public of a desire for a knowledge of music, and how increasingly numerous, even m the homes of the working- classes are pianos, orcrans, and harmoniums. The great majority of the letters in this list relate to pianos ana while inanv of them have reference to most costly instruments containing all the latest improve- ments, supplied to the well-to-do, the greater num- ber relate to serviceable instruments purchased for the homes of the wage-earning portion of the community. This growing love for so fefining an art aSlllusic is a. most favourable sign. For though in the Principality music has for generations been the chief recreation of the people, it has for the most part been choral music in connection with churches and chapels that has occupied attention. Instru- mental music is now, however, receiving its fair s are of attention, and all those in true sympathy with the art must trust that the movement will go steadily onward. These testimonials have been re- ceived from every quarter of the Principality, while not a few come from other portions of the United Kingdom, and some from South America,, India, and other distant countries. All speak most favourably of Messrs. Heath's business methods as well as of their instruments. Ti J £ JEATH AND SOXS' INVITE INSPECTION.

CENTURY these ma- vellous Pills have held the first place in the world as a Se.iiedy for Pile and Gravel ana all the disorders of the Stomach, Bowels, Liver, and Kidneys. There is not a civilised nation under the sun but that has experienced their HEALING VIRTUES. GENEEAL SYMPTOMS.—Paine in the Back, Loins, between the Shoulders, and in the region of the Heart, Stomach, Liver, and Kidneys; Constipa- tion, Wind, Griping, Colic, Biliousnes, Suppression and Retention of Urine, Pains in the Thighs, Palpita- tion, Giddiness, Depression of Spirits, Dropsical Swellings, General Debility. THOUSANDS have been cured by these Pills, and the Proprietor has in his possession an enormous numfeer of Testimonials from all parts of the world, and is daily receiving fresh ones of which the follow- ing, from one of the m;: jt popular and respected of Welsh ministers, is a fair saxaple:- From what I have seen and heard there is not a more aeservedly popular medicine in this country than Georee's Pile and Gravel Pills.' Wherever I go (and I have travelled about a good deal) I am sure to hear of their virtues. I was not more surprised than pleased to find George's Pills' a household word in America when I visited that country a. few years ago. This remedy is not a quack nostrum certified to cure all the ills to which flesh is heir. On the con- trary, George's Pills' have no such pretentions, but are offered to the public as safe and sure remedies for two of the most painful disorders that trouble man- kind, viz., Piles and Gravel, and their numerous accompanying aches and pains Mr. George has my sympathy and good wishes in his efforts to relieve mankind of two of its greatest enemies."

On all sides of us, in town and country, we hear numerous complaints of a want of tone, a feeling of languor and depression. Many who have successfully lln, resisted the trials and hardships of winter feel weary, languid, and depressed. All who suffer in this manner only need a good Tonic preparation to invigo- rate and give tone to the system and new life to the blood, and brace the nerves, to withstand the trials of the coming season. The virtues and efficacies of the Quinine Bitters are so universally known that they have won for this preparation the appellation of THE VEGETABLE TONIC.

The Ravenswood was also advertised to take ene of her regular trips, but under the circum- stances her owners (Messrs. Campbell) generously took her off, thus swelling the complement of Messrs. Edwards, Robertson's fine boat, which made the trip in her usual style, to the delight of the very large party on beard. On their return the passengers had the usual opportunity of execrating the landing place, which was as gloomy, slippery, and dangerous as ever. One passenger at least measured his length in the slimy ooze, to the temporary ruination of his garments. When will the Docks people put this place upon a safe and decent footing ? Surely i is high time. Monday is Bank Holiday, one of the small oases in the drear unending desert of busi- ness life-bless St. Lubbock for it. A few more such Mondays dotted along our pil- grimage would be by no means unacceptable May the weather be propitious, for thousands are looking forward with keen interest to an outing. On Monday night the Theatre Royal, which has been closed over the summer recess," re-opens with the return visit of The Span of Life." At the Grand next week "Passion's Pewer," "Caste," and Ingomar will be produced, whilst at the Empire Charles Morritt, the magician, will be one of the attractions, and there is also the Panopticon, with its varied exhibits and objects of interest. At the Sophia Gardens on Monday the veteran Blondin will look down upon the awe-stricken throng from the airy height of his tight rope. The General Post-office is not usually humorous, but in its notices of this week there is one abo ut an absconding postmaster which has a near approach to it. The man wanted weighs just above nine stone, hair black, inclined to be curly, turning grey at sides. Round ears, red spot on tip of nose hands rather small; unable to completely close hand on account of fracture of wrist Walks with slight limp of left foot. Wears gold spectacles. Wore a long moustache and American billy goat beard. Has foreign appearance, and somewhat like professional musician. Had in his possession sixteen Bank of England notes for £ 5 each and two for JE10 each. A critic remarks that the red spot on tip of nose accounts for the whole affair. "I would not care to walk along the street with a, man like that for anything"-wal a remark dropped yesterday, as the speaker pointed to a red-coat who passed with a young woman at his side. The observation set me thinking, for the unpopularity of the soldier as an individual is a very widespread thing. Sol- diers in the mass are distinctly popular, not so much as our blue jackets, indeed; still, as they march past you can see at a glance that the onlookers are interested and pleased, and when the regiment is a famous one, and, perhaps, not long returned from abroad or from the battle-field, then the exuberance and the enthusiasm show themselves, and even the phlegmatic Briton is stirred within the depths of his soul. My readers will recollect, when the Royal Welsh Fusiliers marohed through North Wales, how they were welcomed by the popu- lace, and what enthusiastic cordiality was extended to them everywhere. So notable was this feeling that at the time it was said these marches ought to be repeated in order to encourage recruiting. There can be no question whatever about it, that this method of swelling the ranks would prove most popu- lar, for North Wales is not what one might call a likely district for "enthusing" over the soldier, and if North Walians kindled much more would our countrymen in other districts. But though poldiers in companies and regi- ments and battalions are welcome, the indi- vidual soldier is decidedly not popular. Many people will not enter a compartment on a railway where a soldier is travelling, and the same kind of thing occurs often at public- houses. It strides me that the whole thing is extremely ahsurd; but it is worse than absurd -it is cruel. A man can be as good and as true and as noble in a red ooat as in a dress suit or a fustian jacket. Here as elsewhere, it is the man himself, and not the coat that is on his back. Rudyard Kipling, it will be remembered, knocked the bottom out of this stupid id ja, h r has he not sung how in peace the soldier is shunned and tabooed but in war, it is "Tommy this and Tommy that," and they can't make too muoh fuss of ''Tommy "until peace is declared and his occupation is gone, when the snubbing process commences over again. This kind of thing is not likely to popularise the Army, a circumstance which the public—who may need the good offices of the red-ooats when least ex- pected—ought to take into consideration. It is the duty of all sensible and loyal citizens to treat the soldier, whenever they meet him, with that kindness, and courtesy, and consideration, which is most certainly his due. The "living pictures" have excited the wrath of Lady Henry Somerset, who condemns them in no measured terms, and says of one of them that they are "simply outrageous." "In these tableaux" (she continues) "petticoats, bodice, and all are frankly dispensed with, and for the first time in a Christian country our brothers, husbands, sisters, sons, and wives are bidden to assist at an exhibition of unclothed women. No one who sees but must agree here is the gravest insult and dishonour that has' been put upon women in our time for that at last we have in letting women make public merchandise of the beauty of their bodies, surpassed even the Orien- tal standard of female degradation. I do not say that everyone who looks on these pictures does so with a bad object, that as far as his or her purity is concerned it must suffer by the spectacle, although it is past all probability that any large majority will look on them with the reverence and seriousness of purpose that justi- fies the artist's study of the nude form; in- deed, the audience is only subordinately my concern at all. The spectator has a hundred temptations he can choose from; it is not so much to remove temptations from him that I take up my ppn, It is the performers who call I for our intervention; and I make this appeal to the English public as accomplices in the ruin and degradation of these girls." Now, it really strikes me that this is too strong', unless, indeed, the living pictures con- demned are very different from those displayed some time ago at our Empire and Panopticon. It was then subject for remark that the greatest care had been taken, even in the nudest spec- tacle, to avoid approaching, let alone overpass- ing, the briiac of propriety. I was utterly unconscious of any unworthy feeling when gazing at these pictures, and I think that those who differed from me would, with equal ease, extract unholy thoughts from the engravings in an illustrated Family Bible or the"Pilgrim's Progress." To .my mind, the partial unveiling of a Society belle as we see her photographed in our most unexceptionably respectable shop windows is more suggestive far than these tableaux which Lady Henry somerset con- demns, a-ndl her ladyship could exert her great gifts to better purpose by assisting a crusade with the object of clothing our young beauties decently as they flit about the fashion- able ball or drawing-room. This would be a mission worthy even of Lady Henry Somer- set. wniwnnraawm»gui<iamwwij»wu>.»liiw«r|.« rammmm
FOR BREACH OF PROMISE.
FOR BREACH OF PROMISE. Leeds Jury Award a Jewish Maiden £150. At the Leeds Assizes on Friday (before Mr. Justice Grantham), Rose Silverstein, 21, brought an action to recover damages for breach of promise of marriage from Morris Lazarus Schaffner, furniture dealer, of Leeds. Plain- tiff came to England from school a.t Cracow, in 1839, at the age of sixteen years, and went to live with some relatives named Sclireiber, under whom she learnt the tailoring trade. Defendant-soon afterwards made her acquain- tance, and was accepted as her lover. The p-arties were betrothed according to the Jewish rites. In April..1891, the plaintiff, with Mrs. Schrieber's consent, went on a visit to the defendant's mother, and while there was se- duced. Finding the condition the girl was in, they went through a ceremony in the presence of many friends, which, according to English law, was illegal. Defendant put a ring upon her finger, and they were regarded as wedded. Prior to and after the birth of a. child in Feb- ruary lafit, the defendant treated the plaintiff with great cruelty, and eventually turned her out of the home.—The jury found a verdict for the plaintiff for £150.
GRIEF "CAUSED THE~~ DEED.
GRIEF "CAUSED THE~~ DEED. A Weman Cuts Her Throat in Front of a Looking-glass. On Friday morning Mary Ann Allott, aged 21 years, landlady of the Tiger Inn. Oldbury, committed suicide in a most determined manner. She resided at the public-house named with her aunt, Emma Mann, and her brother. Between six and seven o'clock on Friday morn- ing the deceased, who has been strange in her maimer for some weeks past, inflicted a terrible wound in her throat with a large carving-knife whilst she was standing in front of a looking glass in her bedroom. Afterwards she walked into her aunt's bedroom adjoining, and, as well as she could, said she hoped God would bless her aunt. The latter called for assistance, and the deceased was subsequently found at the top of the stairs bleeeding profusely from the wound she had inflicted. Dr. Buttery was called in. but his services were of no avail. The despondent state of the deceased's mind is accounted for by the fact that about three months ago her father and fnother died, both deaths taking place within about three months, and this preyed upon her mind.
WHITE GLOVES.
WHITE GLOVES. No Prisaners for Trial at Cardiff Police- court Te-day. Alderman D. Jones and Mr. C. F. Gooch, the magistrates on the bench at Cardiff Police- court on Saturday morning, had the pleasure of being informed by the Head-constable (Mr. Melvenzie) that there were no eases to be tried, and he, in accordance with the custom or. such rare occasions, presented Alderman D. Jones (chairman) with a pair of white gloves. —Alderman D. Jones, on behalf of Mr. C. F. Gooch and himself, thanked Mr. McKenzie, and expressed his extreme gratification that there should have been no business for the magistrates, and hoped that such occasions would in the future be of more frequent oc- currence.
FREE LIBRARIES.
FREE LIBRARIES. Penarth May Have One Before the Year is Out. A meeting of the free libraries committee was held at Penarth on Friday evening, Mr. G. C. Thompson in the chair. A long report as to the expense of forming a library and news- room and maintaining the same, was presented by Mr. Ballinger. After considerable discus- sion it was resolved that a news-room be opened forthwith, if premises can be obtained at a. moderate rental. We understand that the com- mittee have already inspected. some premises offered to them, and it is probable that the news-room will be opened before the end of the year. The Liberal Institute is one of the buildings which has been offered to the com- mittee.
SOCIAL AND PERSONAL
SOCIAL AND PERSONAL Interesting Paragraphs Absut Interest ing People and Things. Ladies are about to invade another of the pro- fesBions hitherto occupied exclusively by men. It is announced that Miss Fawcett, daughter of the late professor, who was also Postmaster- General, is to commence business a.s a civil engineer. Miss Fawoett is a mathematician of the highest attainments, and her brilliant suc- cess at the university two or tlu-ee years ago is still fresh in the publio mind. The. other morning Mr. Jerome K. Jerome I received the following missive from an unknown oonttt-ibutür:Dear S.ir,-I am waiting for my breakfast. To be plain, I have been wait- ing for my breakfast for two days; and, unless you accept the enclosed manuscript I shall have to wait considerably longer." This is a new edition of Johnson's "Yours impransus" letter. Dunmow's world-famed flitch will, on Mon- day, be presented to the couple who take the required oath that for one year and one day they have neither in deed, thought, nor word, offended each other, and who are judged by the jury of six maidens and six bachelors, entitled to the prize. There will be three pairs of claimants this year, and the trial will take place in a large marquee which has been erected in a field outside Dunmow for the occasion, the judge being Mr. J. M. Welch, a local auc- tioneer the "counsel" for the claimants is Mr. Robert Marsh, an Essex corn merchant; and for the donors of the bacon, Mr. F. W. Bartley. An amusing incident occurred at a fashion- able wedding the other day. One friend, who determined to Rave her money and credit at the same time, took a broken ear-ring to a. famous jeweller in Bond-street, and ordered the little stone to be set as a scarf-pin for the groom. As she sagely remarked, "It does me 1.0 good, and coming from such a. famous etablishment, they are sure to prize it. and think I paid a lot of money." When the package returned from the shop the wedding guest failed to examine her proposed present, and merely dis- patched it with her card and compliments. Imagine her distrust, when strolling through the rooms where the bridal gifts were displayed, to find a dozen people about her offering, and each one smiling. For a moment she hesitated, then pressed forward, and lo! there was the precious white satin-covered box 1 earing the prized name, it is true, but, alas below "From repairing departmentand even worse than all. resting on the blue cotton beside the pin, was an old broken bit of <r-ring returned by the conscientious firm.

The Cymric Causerie. NOTES AND NEWS OF WALES AND WELSHMEN. A Column ef Gossip and Chatter of Persons and Places Gathered all Over Gwalia. The Earl and Countess of Radnor have ?efk London for Marienbad. Winifred Lady Howard of Glessep and Mis Laura Strutt have gone on a visit to the Mar. quess and Marchioness of Bate at Mount Stuart, Island of Bute. Lord and Lady Wimborne, who are staying at Petworth on a visit to Lord and Lady Leconfield, will proceed to-day to Canford Manor, Dorsetshire. The Rev. Dr. ft. W. Dale, of Birmingham, is staying at Llanbedr, Merionethshire. II< has arranged to be absent from Birmingham until the end of next month. Lord Berwick is making another determined effort to. get at the coal at Landshipping, which place is situated on the confluence of the Eastern and Western Cleddau, Pembroke- shire. We understand a large number of Cardiff residents have already acted upon the hint given by Judge Bishop to a debtor at Cardiff County-court on Thursday, and have soaked theii watches. Sergeant Aplin was in ecstasies on Friday night. The cells at the Cardiff Borough Police- stations had no occupant, and up to midnight there was a prospect of a pair of white gloves for the presiding magistrate. There is a man down the line who drinks nothing between meals but buttermilk, the real Welsh brand, which must be at least seven days old. Our friend is known among his neighbours as "Twm yr Enwyn." The Rev. D. G. Evans, Treforest, Ponty- pridd, has received a unanimous invitation to the pastorate of the Welsh C^nffre^'ational Church, Newburgh, Cleveland, Ohio. New- burgh is one of the best Welsh churches in America. A marriage has been arranged, and will take place in London about the end of September, between Mr. T. H. Mander, Duke of Corn- wall's Light Infantry, and Elinor, daughter of the late Mr. T. P. A. Lloyd-Philipps and Mrs. Llovd-Philipps, of Dale Castle, Pembrokeshire. To our literary policemen. Mr. Charles Ash- ton, of Llanymawddwy, the Llandysail Eistedd- fod OIl Thursday- was the means of adding an example of genius amid the bustle of a railway station. The new light is Mr. L. R. Davies. stationmaster, Brynaimnan, who took the prize for some "englynian" to the River Teifi. Mr. David Williams, formerly a Cardiff journalist, now of the "North Wales Chronicle," has been scoring. Under his direction was issued a souvenir of the Royal visit to North Wales, an edition de luxe of which was pre- sented to, and graciously acknowledged by, the Queen and the Prince and Princess of Wales. The president of the Newport Chamber of Commerce, Mr. Charles D. Phillips, by the invitation of the Right Honourable the Lord Mayor of Manchester, Sir Anthony Marshall, was present this week at a conversazione given by his lordship to the Institution of Meohani- jal Engineers, of which Mr. Charles D. Phillips is a member. Amongst the cheques contributed to Mr. Ebenezer Beavan's presentation was one, signed "Sympathy," for J650. We have reason to believe that this emanated from Lord Bute, who took this opportunity of showing alike his respect for Mr. Beavan and his appreciation of temperance work. A cheque for JElO bore the signature of Sir W. T. Lewis. At the Llandyssil Eisteddfod several of the prizes offered for prose and poetry were for local subjects. The adjudicators, however, were, from a distance—one from Bethesda (the Rev. D. Adams), the other from Porthcawl (Dr. Gurnos Jone;3)-and the winners, also, strange to relate, were in several instances persons from a. distance. Local talent must be deteriorating. In the year ended August, 1893, 94,113 scholars were taught drawing in the elementary schools of Wales. Of this number 167 passed excellent, 805 good, and 386 fair. Of 1,228 pupil teachers, &o., examined, 453 were success- ful. The amount of grant was £5,929 15s. lid. Of this total Glamorgan had 44,795 scholars, of whom 42 passed excellent, 221 good, and 67 fair. Four hundred and ninety-seven pupil teachers, &c., stood examination, of whom 178 passed. Grant, £2,848 38.. "It is a thousand pities and a. shame," writes a commercial- traveller from Aber* gavenny, "that the beautiful Valley of Vaynor and Pontsarn has not a better approach than this antediluvian road-tunnel referred io in this column yesterday. If t.here is a high- way board at Vaynor it is to be hoped the ratepayers at the coming election of parish oounoillors will make a clean sweep of it. Why should the farmers of this lovely parish be kept a hundred years behind the age?" A forty-second cousin of Balaam's ass was being driven along one of the streets of Car- marthen the other day, when all at once he came to a full stop, and refused to budge another inch. His master, adopting Balaams tactics, tried coercion, but for a long hme produced no visible impression. At last the animal was induced to proceed, but preferred making a wide circuit rather than pass over a certain spot. That spot was a manhole, from which issued a most noxious odour. Could the mule (solemnly asks the Welsh- man") have recognised in that stench au angel of death? If there is anything in a name, the case of Jamea Price, who was "up" at Westminster Police-court on Thursday, ought to silence Idriswyn's vociferous assertion that there are no Welshmen on tramp. The prisoner Price a white-haired old man, when arrested for begging in Pimlico, said he had been a. beggar all his life, a.nd that he was too old to start work now. He also said, with respect to a parcel of bread and meat he was carrying, that he was waiting till he got enough ceppers for beer so that he could enjoy his meal. Pievioua convictions were proved, and Price was sentenced to a month's imprisonment. The monthly meeting of the Swansea Anar- <4ii«t Society was held last evening, and amono- those who presented themselves for initiation was a foreign gentleman of appa- rently reduced circumstances. Hie following dialogue ensued, as disclosed by the Post": — President: Who are you? Foreigner (proudly): I am the prop <:t M illustrious line. < President (with "sark"): Clothes line? Foreigner: Well, old clothes. The Count, mv father, traded in them. President: But of what nationality art you ? Foreigner: A Pole. President: Stand down. A Pole may maJtc a decent prop. But, as a rule, 'fr «■ a deucedlv poor Anarchist. On Tuesday, in the churchyard of Yscei. 600- Flintshire, in the grave of her father and mother, was laid to rest Mary Eizabeth Williams, daughter of the well-known Welsh scholar and divine. Rowland Williams, M.A., formerly canon of St. Asaph, and rector of Ysceifiog. The deceased was well known m Birmingham and in its neighbourhood, f<js% although she never adopted the dress and name of a. "Sister," she worked m that cha- racter for several years at Smethwiok. On the death of her youngest sister she returned to Wales to reside permanently at Bangor, and at Trefdraeth Rectory, Anglesey, with her motherless nieces. Previous to leayimr Bir. mingham the wives and families of Messrs. Chance's workmen presented her with < valuable timepiece "in thankful remembrance of thp, time spent among them in loving and un-elfiih labour." Her friends, and they form a large circle, will long remember hei sweet presence and conversational powers. Princess Victoria's bardic name ot "Buddug" has created wondrous amusement in England, and rio wonder, if the benighted Saxon pronounces it as spelt. "Fun tWs week devotes a poem to the subject, of whic* the following are the final stanzas: — Thev longed to hymn thy fame, Princess, When thee they did initiate, And scorned to choose a name unless 'Twas one that would propitiate; And like true Welshers as they are— Their work is always neatest done— They've names for Roysil "Ma" and "P* But saved for thee the sweetest one.
