Before using the Balsam in our family the children have been prostrate with colds for several weeks, but now, Ly taking doses as directed, they seem tc suffer very little inconvenience. During the short time the cold is upon them, the action of the Balsam is marvellous, and the little ones take it readily and ask for more.—WALTEB J. BBBTT, C.M Headmacter, Severn Tunnel School. The Children like it. It's the product of the Honeycomb, chewically treated to get the best results. THEY ASK FOR IT So different from most medicines. Nice to Take Cure Quickly.

Carmarthenshire Quarter Sesssions
Carmarthenshire Quarter Sesssions PRESENTATION TO EARL CAWDOR. At the Carmaiirt-heinslwre Court of Quarter Sessions hed,at the Carmarthen Shire Hall on Friday, Sir James Drummond referred to the urteiretmeinlt of Earl Cawdor from the chaOTTuaiiPhip of the Court as a puiblic etalbnl,.ty to the county, which he had so ably served for the last quarter of a century. Ho (the speaker) was suie thoy ail most deeply deplored the rersr.gnatt.ion.. It was not often that a couinlty suffered the misfortune of losing two of its most va'lualblo public ser- vants in the course of one year. He re- ferred to the death of Mr William Pliilipps, chief constable, whom they all revered. They all deplored the old chief's sudden death. Wiitth regard to Earl Cawdor, he felt sure there was no coun.ty im the kirxgdom that had em joyed the services of a more able lawyer and Ibottiter chairman than Earl Cawdior had been (aijmlause). He had heard it AAlid, and he lb-lieved it to 'De, true, that on one occasion. IiOrd Oamdor had put the ex- Lord Cbasntebr right on a, point of law at the quarter sessions, and he had no doubt that Earl Cawdor was perfectly able to do so (laughter and hear heiar). He (the speaker) had served on the grand jury for many years, and he had ntever come across any of his Majesty's jugdes who had 'been able to sum up to the potty jury more aWly than, Earl Cawdor had done (appl'auseT- He fcJt sure that Mr --irthiir Lewfs would have a difficult task to follow him, hut, ait the same time, they knew Mr Lewis weM aind had a great regard for him. Mr Lewis was an able lawyer, and they would all welcome him as Earl Cawdor's successor. He moved the appoiinicfmeiiift of Mr Arthur Lewis as their chairman (applause). Dr Henry Laiii-rcaice, Naribertl^ seconded the motion, which was carried unanimously. Mr Arthur Lenvlife, 'who eaid lie could not adequately express his thanks for the high honour confer red upon, him, observed, that his anemoi,yearried him back 35 years, when he was made a magistrate for Carmarthen- shire. He then little thought of attaining such a position in a shire which was rapidly becoming what he might oaiN a. fmft-class county. The population had greatly in- creased in that long period. In 1873 it was 115,710; to-day it was 135,328 (applause). Of course, the rapid growth had taken place in the 'industrial districts, which threw upon the court of quarter a very heavy responsibility, beoaiuse it was from those dis- tricts that the principal amount of crime, unfortunately, came. He was not unmind- ful of the fact that that chair had been occu- pied by very distinguished predecessors. He referred to the ex-Lord Chancellor (Lord Halsbury, formerly Sir Hardinge Giffard) and the late Judge Johnes, of Dolaucothi, whose name was still very sweet in. Carmar- thenshire (applause). He entirely shared the feelings of Sir James Drl1.t.mmondas to the retirement of Earl Cawdor. Mr Tru'b-bn.w, Aclybryn Llanelly, then moved tha aippohitmen of Mr Dudley Wil- liams-Drummond as vice-chairman, nd re- marked that Mr Drummond attended the quarter sessions regularly, and had bad the great exaple of Earl Cawdor bofore him. Mr R. H. Sanipeon, Pontardulais, seconded and the motion was carried unanimously and with acclamation. VOTE OF CONDOLENCE. Sir James iDrummond, iin praposiaig a vote of condolence with the family of the late cbfef-constalble (Mr W. Philipps), spoke of the valuable servig^s rendered by deceased to th county in a period of from 35 to 40 years. He personally felt he had lost one of his deare.vt an\ staunchest friends. Tin county had been most fortunate in 1 :m a chief cons'able. He was beloved by the people, and more porticularly by the mem- bo.s of the con-jtahulary. The vote was carried an sie1 ice. and the new chief constable (Mr W. Picton Philipps' son of the, deceased, acknowledged. CONGRATULATIONS. Suibsequently Mr Llewelyn Williams, M.P. on behalf of himself and the 'bar, felicitated the chairman on his appointment. While at the Bar lie won not only the respect and od- miirat:on, but even the affection, of his colleagues. STEALING CLOTH AT LLANELLY. The only case for trial was that of Win. Henny Carroll, of the gipsy tribe, who sur- rendered to his Ibairl on1 an indictment charg- ing hiim with stealing a roll of cloth, valued at £ 2 16s, from Hanrv James Hopkins, on the 5th ult. Mr Dd. Rhys (instructed by Mr Fred N. Powell, Llanelly) appeared for the prosecution, and Mr Wi Llewelyn Wnl- iiams, M.P. ^instructed bv Mr Wm. Howell, Llanelly), for the defendant. The case hav- ing heeni opened, the Chairman asked Mr Dd. Rhys whether he thought there was a case to go to the jury. Mr Rihiys replied that he tiliocight (there was, hut he would leave him- self ent-reiv in. the hands of the chairman, who thieoi initiiinlated that it would be better if the case proceeded. After reviewing the evidence, the Chairman, in summing up, tokl the jury he thought it would be very unsafe to convict Without retiring, the jury re- turned a verelidt of "Not guilty, and prisoner was d'scharged. This concluded1 the business of the Sessions. XXX THE NEW CHAIRMAN. Mr Arthur Lewis, the, new chairman, had acted as Earl Cawdor's deputy for some years, and on the bench, as on circuit, his legal acumcn, combined with his iiniform courtesy, have always won for him the. high- est esteem of -all sections of the community. He .is the only son of the late Rshop of Lllandaff, and now holds the, office of stipen- dary of Ponrtyprndd, in succession to the late Mr Ignatius Widhams, his office as recorder of Carmarthen being relinquished by him on appointment to the stipendaryship. He was born in 1848, and was educated at Eton and Un.ivoisi.ty College, Oxford. In 18i0 he rowed in the Initer-Urriversity Boat Race at Putney, under the captaincy of Mr o a former member of the South Wales Bar. Love of atheletics, how- ever did not prevent him graduating B.A. in 1871. He took his M.A. a few .years later. Selecting the law as his profession, lie was called to the Bar at Lincoln's Inn in 1873, and joined the South Wales Circuit and the Gamorga,n and Carmarthenshire Session; in the summer of 1874. He earned a reputa- tion for himself second to none at the South Wales Bar. With a large share of misi prius business, he has had an. uniusually extensive ,-t e-n experience in criminal hw, having 'been NI- gaged in over twenty murder cases alone, e'liher to prosceute or (loftiid, aiiioinQ;-t them being Cowibr.idge, Swansea, Llanelly, Car- Ai(,n illirtl Cardiff murder charges. He has also led om one sde or the ofher in mor-t of the important local ca-'es of recent years, generally speaking, holding tll" Crown briefs. In the conduct of his cases no advorate has ever shown nnro judicial nrmdedness or a greater desire to act fa;rly bv all parties. He is on the commiwiont of the prince for tiie counties of Pembroke and Carmarthen, and deputy-chairman of quarter sevsiom for the town and county of Haverfordwest. He married in. August 1887, MisR Ann'e Wilhel- mone Elbron, se~ond d:\n"liter of Mv James Ellison, M.D., purgeon-in-oidmary to Ilec Majesty's Household. XXX THE NFJW VICE-CHAIRMAN. Mr Francis Dudley Williams-Drummond, the new vxe-c'liaiirman., comes of a noble stock, 'being the youngest son of the late Sir James Drumimond, Bart., cf Edwinsford (Carmarthen) and Hawitlioinden, Midlothian, and is a brother to Sir James Drummond, Bart., the lord-lieutenant of Carmarthen- shire.

He was one of the pioneers of the Land Agents Society, founded in 1903. In, the follow.tng year Mr Drummond was ap- pointed president. He has been chairman of tho Carmarthen Conservative Association for the last few years. He is also a life member of the Royal Agricultural Society, aind Fellow of the Royal Horticultural Society. PRiESENTATION TO EARL CAWDOR. At a private luncheon attended by some 20 counlty magistrates, who had subscribed to the testimonial, held at the Ivy Bush Royal Hotel, Carmarthen, on Friday, Earl Cawdor was presented With a massive silver bowl and pihnth "an It oken off the r affectionate regard and in recogn.tion of his services as ehairmiainf of the.

The 'bowl is a magn:(ficent replica of the old txreok Ailbani vase, found in, the Albaju ViJJo. near Rome.

The Welsh Nonconformist League, whibh wias formed at the great convention held at Cardiff m October last, with the main, db- jcct of press nig forward the claims of Wales And for the fulfilment of the definite promise then given by the Right Hon.. D. Lloyd George that a Disestablishment Bill should be ilntroduced and passed through the House a' Commons during the fourth Session of Parliament is at present actively engaged in pursuing the policy set before it. A strong executive committee, roprescnbatlive of all (.enomnations, has (met several times since, and a constitution has born prepared, while vome, if not most of the denomimat ions are -veill organised, and the great machinery can be put into motion at very yhort notice.

The Welsh Baptist Uii.o.i. at its last annual assembly also ap- ;ted a number of their leadimg ministers I 4e and laymen, to act on the Central Committee Ibis executive has refrained from (being too aggressive im view of the very definito promise given by Mr Lloyd George at Cardiff 'inasmuch as they would not like to be the means of doing anytih.fng wh'ch would harasa the Government or th" Wei1 sli members i.n the Cabinet. It has now, however, come, to the. knowledge of the secretary and some of the Rle3il3jcrs of Executive that an a- gressnve campaign, in, fmther^ico of ibis movement would not, to say the least, be looked upon with disapproval by Welsh re- pres-uitatires on tho council of the nation. .<) Ive arc nformed that it is proposed to call -ogeiher inifluential body -in. the near utuie, and during the coming autumn and wmter undonlbtedily a v,gorou> campaign will be conducted throngliout the PII'ncipality, and proba.bly in. the pa'inoipal English towll. as it is felt that battle mu it now ba fought to a fill if sue.
