"Dyna i chwi ddarlun o ffydd, y mlant i.— credu am beth nad ydych chwi ddim yn ei weled." Mewn ychydig ar gofynodd yr athraw eto: "Beth yw ffydd yn awr, fy mlant i?" Eu hatebiad oedd, "Mwnci mewn bad."—T.T., Ynyshir. PRIS YR IAR. Yr oedd hen wraig, yr hon ni allai siarad llawer o Saesneg, un diwnrnod yn myned i farchnad Pontypridd i werthu cwpl o ieir. Ar y ffordd cyfarfu a hi foneddiges, yr hon ni allai siarad air o Gymraeg. Gan gyfeirio at un o'r ieir, gofynodd y foneddiges, "What is the price of that hen?" "Hen wirp" meddai yr hen wraig. "Iar fach ieuanc fagais i eleni yw hi." "What?" ebe y foneddiges. "O!" meddai yr hen wraig, "wliatia di lawer o honi hi, f3 ddaw Shoni 'ngwr i, fe whatith e' di.' —J.G., Forth. TWM O'R NANT A'R PERSON. Un diwrnod, pan oedd Thomas Edwards( Twm o'r Nant) yn dyfod adref oddiwrih ei waith o dori ar geryg beddau o'r E 'wys Wen, ger Din- byeh, daeth y Person i'w gyfarfod ar y ffordd, a gofynodd iddo, "Thomas, a wnewch chwi ddweyd eich barn am y g^vahanol enwadau yma sydd yn codi yn awr? j j j w-vn "0es"el)ai y Pawn, "nid yw fe] chwi ddim heb eick barn."

Y mdrech galed yw iddynt i beidio chwerthin ar bethau digrifol mewn sere- moniau difrifol. Cafwyd enghraifft o'r uchod mewn eglwys Ymneillduol yn nghanol y Rhondda yn ddiweddar. Yr oedd gwr a dynes ieuanc yn ymuno mewn glan briodas. Ar ddechreu y seremoni torodd y briodasferch allan i chwerth- in, a chwerthin a fynai hyd nes i'r gweinidog gyda sarugrwydd ymddangosiadol ei cheryddu. Awd yn mlaen a'r gwajth, ond ar brydiau torai v briodasferch allan i chwerthin ac wylo bob yn ail Pan gwblhawyd y gwaith yr oedd y wraig newydd uniidig mewn ystad ddyryslyd dros ben. Aeth y gweinidog (yr hwn, gyda llaw, sydd yn briod, ac yn dad i nifed o blant) ati, gan ei llongyfarch gyda'r geiriau, "Priodas dda i chwi, 'ngeneth i." Safodd y wraig yn syn am eiliad heb wybod beth i'w ddweyd, ond cofiodd beth a arferai ateb wrth y rhai a ddymunai "Nadolig Iawen" iddi, a meddyliodd y byddai yr un ateb- iad yn gymhwys i'r amgylchiad hwn eto. Gan hyny, atebodd gyda gradd o serchawgrwydd, "Run peth i chithe, syr," Nid ydyw cloch chwerthiniad iachus y gwein- idog wedi dystewi eto.-A.B.B., Tonypandy. --0- "NIDA MIWN." Yr oedd y diweddar Shon Waun Adda yn hen gymeriad doniol iawn.

Jubilee Banquet at Tylorstowl1
Jubilee Banquet at Tylorstowl1 On Thursday evening a grand banquet was held at the Queen's Hotel, Tvlorstown, by the "Queen's Clothing Club," founded by Mr David Thomas. The large assmbly room of Host W. T. Bevan was very prettily decorated with draperies and ferns, while the tables were set off with lovely and sweet-scented flowers. About 60 sat down to a sumptuous repast. The cater- ing was admirable, while the waiting was without reproach, reflecting great credit upon Mr Bevan and his staff. Among the guests were Messrs Fenwick, Bevan (Ferndale), Griffiths (manager), W. Davies (Ferndale), D. Jones, D. Daniels (Y Dryw), D. L. Bowen ( ree Press"), Morgans (grocer), Sergeant Poyntz, Charles Powell, and Wells (checkweighers). The postprandial pro- ceedings were of an interesting character. Mr Fenwick was voted to the chair. A galaxy of talent had been engaged, so all settled down to a good concert. Amongst the artistes en- gaged were the famous trio from Ferndale, David Griffiths, D. Selby Morris, and J. Glyn- tewi Jones, also the well-known Brothers Rees, Ferndale, were present, while Mr Griff. Thomas was accompanist. Mr Fenwick, amidst cheers, rose to propose the toast of "The Queen," which was drunk amidst the greatest enthusiasm and with musical honours. Mr David Griffiths sang "Baner ein Gwlad," and was encored, and Mr Jack Rees followed with "One of the Boys." Mr D. L. Bowen proposed the toast of "The Public Bodies," coupling with it the name sof Mr Fenwick and Mr Bevan (chairman of the Ystradyfodwg School Board). Song, "Hen gadair freichiau fy mam," by J. Glyntewi Jones (encored). Mr Fenwick in responding to the toast, said lie was more proud of being a member of the Guardians than any other Board, for it was the oldest Board in existence, and their work was to help the poor and needy. (Loud cheers). He knew their work was not so hard as that of the School Board and others, but he was. lad the toast was received so je lithusiastiaally. Mr Bevan, in responding, said he was pleased to be amongst the people of Tylorstown, for Tylorstown and Ferndale were now nearly one. He naturally felt more interested in his own neighbourhood than in any other, for all the members naturally fought for their districts. They had a tough fight in getting infants' schools for Tylorstown; still, although the fight was so keen, they were still the best of friends, and the Board always worked harmoniously. He eloquently treated upon the departure of his Board in connection to introducing manual instruction in Board Schools,giving children tools etc., to learn a trade. He dwelt with the pro- gress made by the Board of which he felt it an honour to be a member. He mentioned that when the Queen was crowned, the Government only gave a grant of £20,000 for education; now, the Ystradyfodwg Board alone received as much as the whole country did then. (Cheers). He next showed the difference between the educational facilities of the time when he was a boy compared with those at the present day. Then very few colliers knew the way to read, now nearly every one had his evening, daily, 01 weekly paper, as a result of the School Board. (Loud applause). Mr Ebeo. Hees sang "The Soldiers of the Queen," which was splendidly received. Mr Wells proposed "The Trade of the Dis- trict," coupling the names of Messrs Jones and Powell. Mr D. Selby Morris frendered "Gwlad y Bryniau Mwynion." This song reached the climax. Air Jones briefly responded, and Mr Powell dealt shortly with the Compensation Bill and with the restriction of output of coal, mentioning with pleasure the good feeling that subsisted in this district between masters and men. (Loud applause). Mr Edwin Rees gave "There's a quiet little homestead by the sea." (Encored). Y Dryw proposed the toast of the "Clothing Club." in Welsh, in a most humorous speech, which convulsed the audience, finishing up with some impromptu verses. Messrs Wells and Phillips suitably responded. Mr Jack Rees sang "Ours is a happy home," in character, and responued with "He wore a worried look." Mr David Griffiths song "Mona," Mr Fenwick, in proposing the "Host and Hotess," spoke eloquently of the urbanity and kindness of Mr and Miss Bevan, and the way in which his remarks were received proved the popularly in which they were held. The toast was drunk with musical honours, and was also extended to their worthy father. Mr Griffiths and Mr J. Glyntewi Jones sang a duet that brought down the house. Mr Willie Bevan, in a most appropriate speech responded. With a most grateful vote of thanks to the chairman and artistes, a thoroughly enjovable evening was brought to a close with Mr David Griffiths singing the National Anthem. The Dryw's mirth-provoking stanzas were as follow: Peth hoff yw cwrdd yn nghyd I wir fwynhau danteithion, 0 flasus benthau'r byd. A drefnwyd gan gyfeillion; Er coflo'r Jiwbili, Ben blwyddyn y gymdeithas, Mae'r giniaw gyda bri Yn glod i'r mudiad addas.

[TESTIMONIAL.] Dear Sir,—I have very great pleasure in highly recommending your valuable remedy for fits. Three years ago I was looked upon by all -who knew me as incurable, and naturally, of course, I had resigned to my fate that I should end my life as a martyr to them. I tried several skilful medical men, but all seemed of no avail, and the serious malady seemed to be increasing. I often had two fits during one night. About three years ago I WAS recommended to try your remedy, and during the whole of the time I was under your treatment I only hid three fits. I am now quite recovered, and hope thit I may long enjoy my restoration to health.—I beg remain, yours very gratefully, DAVID EvANS. To Professor Kelly, Temple of Health, Aberdare. Correpondence treated privately. All young men should consult Professor Kelly as to their future welfare. Attends at 55. Taff Street, Pontypridd, every Wednesday from 2 to 7.30 p.m..
