ABERDARE MINERS AND PEACE CONFERENCE. The Aberdare District of Miners held their monthly meeting on Monday even- ing, Mr. W. T. Williams, Ahem man, presiding. A resolution was unani- mously passed "emphatically protesting against the action of the Cardiff Police in allowing a mob to enter the confer- ence of delegates met to discuss Civil Liberties at Cardiff on Nov. Iltli, thus aiding tyrants, despots and hooligans I who are unwilling that opinions con- trary to their own should be held or discussed. We believe that freedom of thought and speech is of vital import- ance to the country, therefore we call upon the Government to protect British subjects from being molested when they assemble to discuss what they feel to he of importance to the people in general and to the workers in particular. If the Government fail to prevent a repeti- tion of the Cardiff affair at a future con- ference, that a special district meeting be immediately called to organise a monstre demonstration on a given date, &s soon as is practicable, and that all miners throughout the district stop work on that date. In addition to this, that the central executive be asked to convene a conference to decide what policy we should adopt to defend our right of assembly. Copies of this reso- lution to be sent to the Home Secre- tary, the executive council, and the press.

RHEUMATISM-KIDNEY TROUBLE.
RHEUMATISM-KIDNEY TROUBLE. Rheumatism is due to uric acid crystals in the joints and muscles, the result of excessive uric acid in the sys- tem that the kidneys failed to remove as nature intended, and this acid is also the cause of backache, lumbago, sciatica, gout, urinary trouble, stone, gravel, dropsy. The success of Estora Tablets, a specific based on modern medical science, for the treatment of rheumatism and other forms of kidney trouble, is due to the fact that they restore the kidneys to healthy action and thereby remove the cause of the trouble, and have cured numberless cases after tke failure of other remedies, which accounts for them superseding out-of-date medicines that are sold at a price beyond all but the wealthy. Women frequently suffer from ills, aches and pains, under the impression that they are victims of ailments common to their sex, but more often than net it is due to the kidneys, and in such cases Estora Tablets will set them right! The test is at least worth making, as woman's happiness and suc- cess in life depends entirely on her health. Estora Tablets, an honest remedy at an honest price, Is. 3d. per box of 40 tablets, or 6 for 6s. 9d. All chemists or postage free from Estora Co., 132 Charing Cross Road, London, W.C.

HACCAR'S, ABERDARE. NEXT AVEEK: "THE FLAMING SWORD." This day (Thursday), Friday, and Saturday sees the fulfilment of Coun- cillor Haggar's promise to screen that great detective film, "Ultus and the Grey Lady." It has been rightly styled the "full value film," for its bewilder- ing succession of surprises and lavish ideas are simply showered upon the spectators. But what will appeal most to picture-lovers it is all British. Con- way Bass is a crime investigator with an obs seion to capture Ultus the Avenger, for v. 1mm Y,1,000 is offered. The various startling adventures of the detective and Ultus are simply remark- able. The clever manoeuvring and countering with their startling effects will please everyone.

The story is most entrancing, and is of Frank Stoll, a wealthy mine owner, who falls in love with the daughter of his foreman. At a dance he persuades her to elop3. They live happily to- gether for many years. Stoll's cousin is an astronomer—Professor Morgan- who has discovered a new comet which promises to strike the earth in a few months' time, and in comyan;* with other professors he decides net to publish the facts to the public. Stoll, by means of his knowledge, causes a panic among stock and share dealers, and becomes a millionaire in a few days. He decides to return to the mine, there to await possibilities. lie takes Diana with him. Her former lover recognises her, and they are nearly captured by the mob. Again, they are met by Diana's father, foreman of the mine, and he curses her. One great scene is the strike riots. Stoll and Diana take refuge in the pit when the great disaster foretold of the comet occurs. Fire breaks out everywhere, the sea rises and floods the land. and everywhere there is disaster. These wonderful scenes of the floods are the most striking pictures ever filmed and must be seen to be believed.—At every show there will be screened one of the great Keystone Komedies. They are comedy and melodrama combined, with the most farcical scenes ever witnessed. Dull features dissolve into hilarity. Have a look in at Haggar's.
