Adrien Tessier was so overcome with shy- ness on seeing the great number of guests who had been invited to attend his wedd- ing breakfast, that he flew from the town of Blois, France, half an hour prior to his marriage. He is still missing. Dr. Bates tells us of a wife of a medical man suffering from hysterical paralysis ot her legs. She was told it was due to her mind, and to overcome it by force of will; she could not, and went about in a bath chair. One summer a drunken Highlander tried to kiss her; she jumped up and ran off for her husband, cured. A good story was told at the annual supper of the Kingscliffe Fire Brigade. A man' stated that he was once called to an outbreak in the middle of the night, and took what he thought was a voice lozenge, but found that he had swallowed his collar- stud. He told his wife, but her somewhat indifferent reply was, "Don't worry about your stud; for once in your life you know where you've put it." "The man who gives in when he is wrong," said the street orator, "is a wise man; but he who gives in when he is right is "Married," said a meek voice in the crowd.

The corpses micht be squeelin' awa' like mad, an 1 widna hear a word." Mackenzie was having his first experi- ence of life in American forests. Borrow- ing a gun he set off one day in search ot game. Not long afterwards his companion saw Mackenzie in the distance running ax full sneed, a big bear behind him. "Qmckt Quick! Jock," Mackenzie cried. "Open the door! I'm bringing him home alive!" From America comes the story of an old farmer, who on his first visit to New Yor1\: thought he would go to the theatre and see "The Fortv Thieves." When he got to the theatre he asked for a, tip-top-seat, and laiu down a five-dollar bill. The box-office man handed the ticket, and three dollars Ü. change. The farmer (accustomed to 25- cent shows) picked up the, three dollars and walked off without his ticket, whereupon the box-office man shouted. See here, sir. You've forgotten your ticket."

A hearty vote of thanks to Mr. Loxdale for his kindness, proposed by Mr. M. T. Jones and seconded by Dr. Rees, was carried with acclamation, after which a pleasant evening was "brought to a close by the s'nging of Hen Wlad fy Nhadau" and the National Anthem.

Death and Funeral. of Mrs. Hughes. The sad news of the death at Brighton of Mrs. Hughes (relic., of Dr, ilugnes, late of Cwrtycadnaw) came with sudden pain- fulness on Saturday and cast quite a gloom over the whole neighbourhood. Mrs. Hughes had been ailing for some time, but as her health seemed to be improving her death came quite unexpectedly. Mrs. Hughes was a staunch Church woman without be jig in the least bigoted, By her death the Church will suffer a distinct loss. She had been till her re- moval to Aberystwyth about a year ago, a faithful member or Llanilar Church and every object likely to prove beneficial to the Church fo-ui-id in her a ready and gen- erous supporter. She was also very charitably disposed. Her hospitality was unbounded. The poor of the neighbourhood will greatly miss her, as no one but herself and the recipients knew the extent of her financial assistance in cases of neel. Few ladies indeed could be more beloved by those among whom she lived than Mrs. Hughes, who possessed an amiable and bcnevo.ent disposition. The deepest sympathy is extended to Miss Hughes, who thus suffers the loss of both parents in ten weeks. That sympathy is deepened by the fact that Miss Hughes was prevented by illness from attending the funeral, of one whom she-had so dutifully and tenderly nursed. The funeral took place amid every mani- festation of sorrow on Monday morning. The body was conveyed by rail from Brighton, arriving at Llanilar 8-23 a.m. There it was met by a large concourse of people which would undoubtedly have been much larger, but for the inconvenience of the day and the hour, as well as shortness of notice. The coffin was conveyed by hearse to Lledrod where the burial service was conducted by the Rev. H. M. Wil- liams, vicar of Lledrod, assisted by the Rev John Jones, vicar of Ystradmeurig. The Rev. W. J. Willicims, vicar of Gwnnws, was also present. The mourners were Mr. R. Jones, Ystrad Meurig (brother); Miss Jones, Tregaron, (niece); Mr. and Miss Williams, Bron-. caradog (nephew and niece); the Rev. T. Davies, Aberystwyth: Mr. J. P. Sinnett, Aberystwyth; E. Hughes Davies, J. Hughes l3avies, Ystradteilo; Mr. G. Pres- catt, Mrs. Reps, Bont; and Mrs. Dr. Wil- liams, Jamaica. In addition to the mourners, there followed Mrs. Loxdale, Castle Hill; Mrs. Dr. Pugh. Miss Bteck Roberts, Mr. and Mrs. M. Lloyd, Carnar- von Miss Lloyd. Lamneter; and Miss Williams. Lledrod Vicarage. Wreaths and flowers were sent by Miss Hughes, Mr. R. Jones, Devil's Bridge; :MiJ.s Jones, Tre- garon; Mr. J. Parry Sinnett, Mr. and Mrs Loxdale, Castle Hill; Mr.. Mrs. and Miss Jone:, Llwynyreos; Mr. W. H. Pugh* and family. Brighton; Mrs. Powell, Miss Black Roberts, and Miss Lucy Griffiths, Church Stretton.

NEWCASTLE EMLYN. Political. -Entlliisiasii-i was displayed at the Liberal demonstration held at the Cawdor Hall on Monday evening, when the principal speakers were Mr. EIlis J. Griffith, under secretary of State for home affairs, and Mr. John Hinds, M.P. Dr. D. G. Lloyd presided over a great gather- ing and said it was the first time New- castle Emlyn had been honoured with a visit from a member of the Government, and they accorded Mr. Ellis Griffith a hearty welcome.—Mr. John Phillips pro- posed a resolution declaring confidence in the Government, and trusting that during the coming session the long-deferred hopes of Wales and Ireland would he realised and embodied in the law of the land.—Mr F. D. Beck seconded the proposition, which was adopted.—The same evening a meeting was held at Pencader. The following took part:—Mr. Eltfs, Griffith), K.D., MvF., Mr. John Hinds, M.P., the Rev. J. D. Evans, Mr W. D. Evans, Alderman Ben Evans, and Mr. W. J. Wallis Jones (Lib- eral agent). A resolution approving the Government's land policy was adopted.

AUSTRALIA FOR DOMESTICS. A generous Government. Australian States of New South Wales aId Victoria are very short of domestic ser- vants. Domestics there receive very high wages and enjoy easy conditions of "service. More- over, they have excellent opportunities of social advancement. Wages paid to all workers are much higher than they arc in the United King- dom, and this means that domestics get many opportunities of making comfortable marriages. The Governments ot New South Wales and Victoria, however, which cdntrol immigracion, do not paint any fancy picture of the prospects. Girls are not told that they will inai-ry mil- lionaire squatters or merchant princes. A plain and yet. a very attractive offer is made t" them. The oidinarv tiiird-cla.?^ fare to Aus- tralia is zc 18. Domestics or domesticated who are approved by the Government are granted steamship ticket.- at from J 3 to ô, they land owing the Government nothing. Every assisted girl is guaranteed work at from 12. 6d. to 25s. a week, with substantially higher wages for good cooks or or her giris with special qualifications. Thousands of British girls have proceeded to these two States within t;;e past few years, and tlio.-a who 'have not nurned well have found the country all that it, was represented to be — a land which treats all working people with marked fairness and arId which is perhaps thej beM honnng coantry in the whole Empire. The who make this.voyage, hhve their into:est and welfare properly protected by the Government. They travel under the care of an experienced matron, and when they reach Australia every thing is done to see tha.t they titke ■ service' o:iiy in homes of the highest repute. For full particulars of this offer applica- tion should be made to the Assistant Superin- tendcnt of Immigration for New South Wales and Victoria, Mel bourne Mace, Strand, W.C.

,EIOOLTlJR^L CLASS AND ABATING sooii-.Ti. On Saturday, the Class met so discus the pros and cons of the question of see- t ing up a dairying industry, in iieu ot Ih"ent system or storing. Mr. J. liorgan, B.A., presided. Mr. Lva.i Eawards, Gwarflynon, opened tne ciibca*- sion by a well-prepared and humorous ua'oer on the folly of introducing a system of the kind into Mid-Cardiganshire. Ine rearm"1 of calves was less cumbersome taau the managing of milk, and tar more interesting. He maintained that lo-a!ly there was at present too much artificial feeding cf calves and that the cow s milk could used to better purpose by feednlg the calves and turning tnem out later on m good condition. Being hit, m tncUe months or so the calves 'WOuldrf^ tw e-K-h Or, if kent till two yeais old, they would certainly fetch a remunera'tive pnee in the market. Moreover, the ™tiodac tion of dairy cows into the dlst'nct ^°jV invo've much trouble and expense, -nd the ;0il and climate are not good e^ugh^to maintain a stock of that kind. ,re muneration for Ivatter cneese anc ^hey for the district was estimated ao -lb 10. »w igjs. s. SAW .♦ ;.s inonev from tiie utt i > lihown y llaeth y'mol y llo Kf vn unig dal am dano, Poidiwn mvnd i ormod trafferth Pvwvd esmwyth eilw gyfoetn. Mr'" Rod Lloyd, Penybont, replied with an phle and convincing paper. Iho cost and lilinnr of rearing, the risks and losses due water, husk, and otlûr diseases, as well as the good price of dairy produce, was a question demanding ran- sic1 cable attention. I^rst- o? all, .mUK selling was a roniunerative buP'^sjf operation were secured. ng figures were produced, showing that toi a herd of ten cows, rearing t.iree ca.ves each the income m a year would he about £ 2C5; \*fiereas by selling nnlk ten moie cows could be kept, instead of rea^nS calves, and the milk ought to *etch £ 280, after deducing fi-eightage. ASa in the case of butter-niakmg and skim- t iii, -o milk cheese making, each cow ought to pio. duce £10 worth of butter at Is. a pound, thus realising £200, and 200 pounds of cheese at 4d. a ppund would be worth £ 6b 6s 8d. The twenty calves would be wortl-i £ 55 thus making a total of ~—01 6s. Bd. The' buttermilk and whey could be used to feed the pigs. TnirdlyT the cheese from fresh milk could he sold, a produce for which there is considerable demand, ine income from that source, at 8d. a pound, was estimated at £ 350, Due allowance was made for capital outlay. The fact that good butter was already produced in the district was a sufficient reason why milk-cheese could also be made. the speaker was quite awaTe. of difficulties; but, granted co-operation, he beHeved that the selling of dairy produce would be made remunerative. P, r. J. T Lloyd opened the, discussion with a few complimentary remarks, refer- ring to the enthusiasm displayed by the Class. He. proceeded to explain that the absence of a market for dairy produce was not sufficient reason for denouncing dairy farming, as milk was sent to London from many remote parts of the country. Of course, dairy farming would mean the in- troduction of a milking straifa and the formation of a co-operative society. Mr. Dan James, Owmnant, believed that local hind was too poor to produce fresh- milk cheese in such quantity as to compete with that from land better situated. Co- operation was yet a long way off in that district. Mr. Powell Lloyd thought the district was such that the produce would not be sufficient to run a special train econornie- illy. Again, cheese from fresh milk demands old pastures, an impossibility in I Tregaron. Mr. Tom Jones, Waunfawr, referred to a certain farmer who casks his butter and sells it in Glamorgan at 15d. a pound. South Wales would certainly open its market to Tregaron produce. Mr. W. R. Morgan maintained that it is always possible to collate a market with a little enterprise and co-operation. The dairy produce imported from Ireland and the Netherlands was the direct result of co-operation. The scarcity of dairy istuff in this country opened the door to foreign imports. The steady demand for butter, cheese, and miik could not be ignored. ■ Mr. J. M. Jones amusingly referred to the fact tha,t when farmers failed: in the neighbourhood of Aberystwyth they joined the milky way. The quip, whether true or not, evoked laughter. Mr. Jenkin Owen said the failure -of pre- vious attempts at dairying in Tregaron district was due to lack of persistence and general inefficiency of the individuals con- cerned. Mr. John Jones—Arable farming pays in these districts. We should stick to our orers and tIfu supply the demands of the rich pastures of the Midlands. Mr. Tom Williams thought hay locally produced 1 too poor for a dairy herd. The local market is also well suited to the sell- ing of store cattle. Mr. David Lloyd condemned the present system of trying to make butter and rear calves at the same time. One should be sacrificed in order to secure the full devel- opment of the other. The milk produced locally was quite good enough to produce milk-cheese, as the average percentage of fat returned by the butter factory years ago was nearly four per cent. Mr. Edwards and Mr. Lloyd replied in a spirited manner. It was evident from the discussion that the subject was a difficult one, and mem- bers were more or less reluctant to part with their mpch-beloved stores. Accord- ing to the vote, it was deemed better to leave the dairying industry in the hands of such farmers as those of Cheshire and to concentrate attention on store cattle. The success of Cardiganshire farmers, it was thought, mainly depended on the devel- opment of this branch of agriculture. The subject of the next debate will be '"The advisability of fattening sheep;"

ARTHOG. Literary and Debating Society—In con- nection with the Literary Society a meet- ing was held at the Council School on Friday. The Chairman was the Rev. J. W. Davies. After an opening hymn, an inter- esting lecture on the great explorer, "Shackleton," was given by Mr. John Higgon. Glasfryn-terrace. He gave an account of Shackleton's career and his journey and adventures at the Pole. A vote of thanks was accorded Mr. Higgon. Following the lecture, solos were sunc. "Bwthyn yr Amddifad" by Mr. Mvnorvdd Wynne; and "Merch y Capten" by Mr., Meredith Jones; and Mr. W. Rees Llovd gave a humorous recitation.

'rjlI Ol'E'E::fSgI:{E .'¿' ;3 v. .f h ')0 riiortiilv meeting was held at Uie Jo HalC' Bolgelic-y, on Thursday, -n c i.ie aresideney of Mr "Vvilii^m Owen, „c' i;la'weunydd, chiirnlau. rihe Chair_ i'i-.v, at tae outset, prc-wosed a vote oi ,v .pati.1 y with Mr. T. M;rtin Williams, Yarmouth, in his illness. The pro- y with Mr. T. M;rtin Williams, Yarmouth, in his illness. The pro- position was seconded by Dr John Jones, ¡ and carried. Mr. J, Llcyd Owen, Bala, also wrote stating that owing to illness lie, was unable to attend the meeting. The Clerk (Mr. Guthrio Jones) produced the new seal cf the Committee. The im- pression was examined by the members, who expressed satisfaction. 1 Mr. L L. J. Davies, Llanuwch- Hyn. submited a" report of the conference helid at Shrewsburyat which it was decided to form a provisional association of insurance committees. He had unclertrken the responsibility of nomin- ating their Chairman as a representative. Dr. J. Jones said that undoubtedly Mr. Davies had acted wisely in nominating Mr. William Owen as representing Merioneth- shire. Nevertheless,-it should be. clearly understood that that committee did not commit itself in any way by adopting that action. (Hear, hear). The Chairman—You need not. worry. I may not attend at all. (Laughter). b. E. W. Evans submitted the report cf a sub-committee which recommended that in addition to railway fares (already allowed) members attending the committee meetings from a- distance be allowed a sub- sistence fee of 2s. 6d., but every member who belonged to the artisan class—paid by the dav-be remunerated at the rate of 3s. 6d. per day for loss of time in attend- ing meetings. Mr. L. J. Davies seconded the proposi- tion Dr. Evan Williams, Bala, was of opinion that the recommendation was quite un- necessary. Members of the committee, he thought, should be honourable enough to pay their own expenses. The chief draw- back to the Insurance Act was the high payment of salaries to officials. How much more fitting would it be for their treasurer (Mr. R. B.nrnett) to be enabled to pay more than sixty per cent of the chemists accounts that day. Dr. John Jones—I presume that we can- not adopt the recommendation without consent of the Commissioners? The Chairman—That is so. Dr. Jones—I quite agree with my friend. Dr. Williams, that there are too many officials engaged in administering the In- surance Act, and will go even further. I am an out-and-out home ruler; but cannot for the life of me understand why Cardiff should grab all public offices. Cardiff, I maintain, does not represent Welsh aspira- tions. The time will come when the elec- torate will have something to say on the matter of high-paid salaries to officials galore. (Hear, hear). Parliament has, however, arranged for a grant to pay ex- penses of the committee members, and personally I hoped before long to mak<? a claim of 3s,6d, for loss of time in attending the meetings. (Loud laughter). The Chairman—It comes to this. If we do not claim the money, it will go into the Commissioners' pockets, and none of us desire that. The recommendation was agreed to.

Tlie Official Receiver, in his observation, stated that debtor (aged fifty- one) filed his own petition and was adjudged bankrupt oil January 5th. He is a building surveyor and clerk of works by profession and was engaged under the London County Council for fifteen years prior to ;SG4. On September 29 th, J.SC4, he commenced business as hotel proprietor at. the Arthog Hall Hotel. He purchased the business from his brother-in-law for £1.335 10s. 7d., made up of—Goodwill, furniture, and fixtures, £ 1,250; stock-in- trade, £ 85 10s. 7d. He paid £1,100 10s. 7d. on ingoing and the balance of JE255 with interest at the rate of five per cent, per annum within two years. The hotel was then and until 1910, held under a yearly tenancy at an annual rental of ;C-T,O. On September 26th, 1913, he disposed of the hotel for £882 13s. lid., including stock-in- trade, furniture, and effects, with his in- terest in the lease for seven years from 1920. At the time he had cash of his own at bankers £ 359 4s. Id., he borrowed £ 591 6s. 6d. from his mother, and £ 150 from a re ative. He has repaid the £ 150 and has reduced his mother's loan to £ 5G0. In February, 1911, he took the Talydon Hotel and oaid for ingring £ 800, which in- cluded the stock-in-trade, fixtures, furni- ture, etc. This sum was advanced to him by a firm of brewers. A lease was granted for seven years from May 12th, 1911, at £100 per annum. The lease of the Talydon Hotel and also of the Arthog Hall Hotel were mortgaged to the brewers as security for the E800. He redeemed the charge on the Arthog Hall Hotel by payment of £2(X) on Soot-ember 25th, 1913, and utilized the balanco of the purchase money ( £ 800) in pr ying his then existing liabilities, and taking over the George Inn. On October 6th. 1913, he acquired the George Inn and paid L210 for ingoing, which included trade fixtures, furniture, and stock-in-trade. This house is tied to a firm of brewers. On September 29th, 1912. he became tenant ot the private residence Rivercot. Barmouth, at an annual rental of £20. The furniture he brought from London in 1904 was re- molded to this house and was subsequently removed in October to the Gleorge Inn. On September 5th. 1912, he executed a volun- tary assignment to his sister-in-law, Miss B. J. Wilson, of the furniture at Rivercot. At the time, he executed the assignment lie considered; he was solvent by estimating th<* value cf the hotels at their original cost. Judgments were obtained against him in December last for £ 555 7s. lOd. ana costs, and £54 14s. 3d. and costs by credi- tors. The Sheriff levied on December 29th, in respect of the first judgment and a bankruptcy notice was issued on December 31st in respect of the second judgment. The sheriff withdrew at the request of the Official Receiver. The books of account kept, were cash books and day books in re- spect of the hotels. The books of the Arthog Hall Hotel have been audited and the auditors estimated that he made a net profit at this hotel of £ 160 per annum. The I full y secured creditors hold as security:— Mortgage-of debtor's reversionary interest in the sum of JE300 contingent on the dentil of his mother (age seventy-three), and also assignment of life policy for £ 450 taken out in June, 1912, for cash advanced, £ 300; estimated valu." of security, £ 530, leaving a surplus of £ 230; debtor's bankers for overdraft, £ 64 10s. 2d.. for which they hold as security two life policies for £ 100 and £ 150, dated 1897 and 1903, estimated value £ 8t, surplus Cl6 9s. 10d. Debtor included amongst his fully secured creditors the collector of Customs and Excise for the moiety of licence of Talydon Hotel, due 1st February, 1914, L19 7s. 6d. total, L227 2s. 4d. The unsecured liabilities in- clude balance private cash loan, 1904, £ 500; balance cash Teut to take over Talydon Hotel and interest 1912-1913, £ 355 7s. lOd. private cash loan, 1913, £ 10 nine creditors for ales;" wines. and minerals, obtained 1912- 1913, £ 311 4s. 9d.; eight for provisions obtained 1912-1913, P,104 17s. 2d. nineteen for advertising, work done, etc., 1912-1913, JS67 ICo. 4d.; and tworor rent of Rivercot and shed, £ 9 14s.; total, £ 1,358 £ 4s. Id. Replying to the Receiver, debtor said lie purchased Arthcg Hall Hotel from his brothcr-iii-law, Mv. H. H. Hornby. He provided £ 360 of the purchase money. He had no record of the re-payments he made to his mother, because it was a private transaction between them. Tlie relative from whom lie also borrowed 2150 was his Miss Kempste.r; Eastbourne. The rent of Arthog Hall Hotel was reduced in 1910 front £2.00 to £.144 10s:, 'because the farm attached was sub-let: He had scent a good deal on improvements in the hotel. It was paying until about two years before he left. He disposed of the business be- cause it was too expensive, especially in staffing. He considered lie paid more for goodwill than he ought to have done. He considered he was solvent when he acquired Talydon. The house was not tied. His expenditure there since 1911 exceeded the receipts by J.;319, which was due to the payment of liabilities in respect of Arthog Hall Hotel and its upkeep during that period and both accounts woi-e,, probably mixed. He acquired the George Inn, Surrey, for his wife and her two sisters. He intended selling Talydon and to return to his professional business. He believed he was solvent when he executed the volun- tary assignment of his furniture to his sister-in-law. Referring to debtor's cash books, the Receiver pointed out that the .statut re- quired booKs to be properly kept and bal- anced. The books did not disclose finan- cial position becaiise they Aid- not show all the liabilities. J Mr. A. J. Hughes, who appeared for (the debtor, thought it would be sufficient.to say that the bocks spoke for themselves. Further examined, debtor explained that he was trustee under the will of an uncle for his grand-daughter in Perth, Australia. His wife's family, had entailed, a great dsa.1 of expense." » Tlie Receiyea* said a. trustee had been appointed, but was net confirmed and the ercaininatiotv. was."therefore adjourned until. F bruar-vi 20th.
