WORTHY OF YOUR CONSIDERATION. SIR,-My wife desires me to say that your Tudor Williargs' Balsam of Honey has proved a most valuable medicine in our large family (eight children). As soon as a cough or oold makes its appearance, a dose of Tudor's Balsam is at once administered, and this treatment is followed up until the cold dis- appears. Before using the Balsam in our family the children have been prostrate with colds for several weeks, but now, Ly taking dose. 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.-WALTxa J. BBBTT, C.M Headmacter, Sarern Tunnel School.

South Wales Coal Trade. THE DOCTOR QUESTION AT THE GWEXDRAETH VALLEY. On Saturday the monthly meeting of the Anthracite 'Miners' Associaftion was held at the Central Hotel, Swansea, the president (Mr W. E. Jones) in the chair. Mr J. D. Morgan, the agent, reported that the Ponty- herem price list had been settled, and the men were now working upon tit. The long dispute affecting 500 men at Aberpergwm Colliery had also been settled between Mr J. Williams, M.P. and himself (Mr J. D. Mor- gan) and the representatives of the company, the Ton men being advanced from 3s 4d and percentage to 3s 7d and percentage, and aliso that the through coafl question was satisfac- torily settled. Notwithstanding this the men's notice was being worked out as a pro- test against summonses to a ilarge section of the men for alleged ibreadb of contract. The men at Graigfach Coftliery, Ystalyfera, re- ceived notices which expired a fortnight ago, the employers clia,imilllg a reduction in the price list. The men had now granted a con- cession that enabled the colliery to be re- started. The dispute att Gurnos Colliery, affecting 250 men, had Ien settled, and thus there was no necessity for giving notices as ordered by the last monthly meeting. The meeting decided to raise the Question respecting the Ammanford Colliery and the Great Mountain Colliery with regard to a dispute reft erred to the Central Board eight months ago, the men's conciliators having been unable to get the conciliators of the employers to meet. It was decided to tgive financial support to the men out at the Cambrian Mercantile Colliery, and to take legal proceedings to recover wages for alleged unlawful dismissal. A matter that excited much discussion was a doctor's question at Gwendraeth Valley. It appears a number of men live a long distance from the colliery, and these men, as distinguished from the local men, are known as "train men." The local mem pay their dodtor Is per month. The train men object to pay this amount on the ground that their families, on account of distance, have to be attended by other than the works doctor, and for which services they have to pay. They, however, are prepared to pay a propontionaite sum to cover first a.id, etc. The meeting recommended that the whole matter !be settled by arbitration.
Automobile Penalty Run.
Automobile Penalty Run. SWANSEA TO ABERYSTWITH, RHAYADER, AND BACK. The Welsh Automdbile Club's 266 mil penalty run for motor cars took place on Friday and Saturday last. The .number of entries were smaller thani for the club's one- day reliability runs, ia-nd the atrocious wea- ther on Thursday .night- and Friday morning further had the effect of reducing the num- ber of competitors. The course one the first day was from Swansea to Aberystwith (via Pembrokeshire, on the first day, and back via JRhayader and Hirwain on the next, and afforded a very excellent test, there being plenty of good and bad roads on, the way. When a start was made from the Tenby Hotel the woa-ther had improved, and at times the sun shone out. Each car carried an observer and full compl ment of passen- gers. The duties of the observer were to carefully note all stoppages and causes for the same, to Ibootk the time carefully, and no driver was aillowed to make any adjustment driver was aillowed to make any adjustment to his oar unless the observer was present. The first car started at /nine a.m., and the others in the following order, at intervals of three minutes. 1. Captain D. Hughes Morgan (Weigel). 2. Mr George Ace (Coventry-Humtoer). 3. Mr B. W. Valentin (Daimler). 4. Mr A. H. Jones (Argyll). 5. Mr Thomas T. Williams (De Dion). 6. iMr Thomas T. Williams (Daimler). 7. Mr Herbert G. Davies (De Dion). 8. Mr WhittingEon ('Mercedes). In passing through Carmarthen, one of the cars ran over and killed a terrier dog, be- longing to Mr Harry Davies, stonecutter, in Lammas street. "Cronje," for wbiich the owner recently refused L5, was a marvellous ratter and Ibadger hunter. Near Christ Church two other dogs only just escaped a similar fate. The weater during the first day was most favourable for motoring, and the trip of 146 to Aherystwith was ^thoroughly enjoyable, only one short shower of rain being experi- enced. The roads ill the Fishguard and Car- digan districts were the hardest on the route, and on the hill going out of Fishguard one party found a oar (belonging to a couple of well-known suffragettes stuck on the hill. Jt should The explained the competition was for a challenge ishield presented Iby Mr J. J Williams, which is to be held for one year. The maximum number of marks obtainable was 1,000 from which one mark will "be deducted for every minute stopped on the road from any cause whatsoever other than intentional stops, ITie winner being the com- petitor who finishes the competition with the loss, of the least 'number of marks. The results of the first day's run were that all the nne cars reached Alberystwith withim the fixed time (8ihours minimum, and 11 £ maximum). Five diait without accident of any description and without any uninteiv tional stoppage. At ;St. Clears, nine miles from Carmar- then, one came came into collision with a farmer s trap, throwing out the occupants. f^1" Arnallt Jones was on the car, and stated that the injures were not serious. On Saturday the seoond day's penalty run was resumed, when the oars returned from Aberystwiith to Swansea by a rery romance Tfoute. Unifailtunattely, Itlie weather was very umpropitious, rain falling practically during the whole journey. The nine cars were out of the garage and at the Queen's 11 s Hotel, about 10.30, and the start was made as soon as possible afterwards. The cars whidlfinislIed the journey according to rules and without a mechanical mishap were Mr Geo Ace's Covenitry Humber, Mr A. A Jones s Argyll, and Mr T. J. Williams's De Dnon. Other competitors lost various number of marks for certain temporary SST' punctures, and other s light The trial, therefore, did not finally detor- ™n7th^lCSSm^0f the Williams' Cu £ L i Anl1 consider the matter'

LLANDOVERY. R ATER SUPPLY.—At a meeting of the Llandovery Town Council on Friday presided over 'by Alderman T.

Cardiganshire Police.
Cardiganshire Police. ISTOP WATCHES TO BE OIUDE, RED, CRilME IN THE COUNTY. he annual meeting of the Cardiganshire Standing Joint Committee was held at the Town Hall, Aberayron, on Thursday the 9thi inst. Captain Fossett Roberts, of A'beryst- wyth, was appointed chairman for the year. Upon the question of the appointment of the Finance Committee for the year, Mr J. M. Howell said the idea of holding the meet- ings at different places in the county was in- tended as an ed cative perambulation, of the county, and he proposed that the committee meet at Cardigan. After some discussion, it was agreed to hdld meetings at Aberyst- wyth. The Finance Committee recommended that the chief constable be supplied with a motor stop watch at a cost of £ 5. Mr Williams sug- gested they shoulld have two-one for the lower end of the county. Motor cars were a perfectdange,r to the people, and only the other day a oar which left the county killed' a young woman at Llanidloes. Dr Lewis: I propose that every constable have a £5 watch. Why are your lives at Aberystwith more valuable than ours in the country? (laughter). The Chief Constable explained that the watch, was used at different centres, and was now at the Devil's Bridge. iMajor Price-Lewis: And a very rvroner place for it too (laughter). Dr Lewis: I propose we have three. (laughter) We ShaU ruia the county- DrJJVrs: "fiat by £ 15! You are pander. ing to the ratepayers (laughter). It was decided to get two watches. The Chief Constable presented a petition received from members of the force, in which they asked to be placed on the same footing in respect to pay as the forces of adjoinine counties. Mr Williams moved that the petition be referred to the Finance Committee for con- sideration, and report to the iiext meeting. Their force was equal in efficiency, and they were all anxious that. their men should be treated in the same way. Dr Lewis: Don't you think we had better consult the member for the, county upon thia question? (Laughter). The Chief Constable reported having re- oeived.,a request from the Aberystwith "Town Couindl to allow Supt. Jones and Inspector Phil kips to assist in the work of enforcing the Markets Act in that town.. The Chief Con- stable said, it would not mean much extra Work. If the committee agreed to it, he would carry it out. Dr Jenlkin Leiwis: Could you not add that •ell 9 Town Council meetings as Mr C. M Williams (mayor of Aberystwith) i take it, if they are called in, they will have to attond. And they may very shortly be called in (renewed laughter). The Chairman (who is also a member of the. Town Council): Don't look at me, Mr Williams. •Mr J. M. Howell said the member for the county was under the, (impression that the police ill ,the county had nothing to do while the committee believed they had quite enough to do. Dr Lewis: I don't think we should study the susceptibilities of the member for the county, after the report we have had. Mr T. W. Howell and Mr C. M. Williiama People in the county be- lieved what the county man said ,,fr L1^;is: 1 ^t see why we should refuse tnis. Between the Town Council and the college rows they wild have to have a police of their own (before -long. He begged to yesw*0 Perm^on' granted for one It was eventually agreed to accede to. the request of the Town Council. The Chief Constable .reported that dupina the quarter 23o persons had been proceeded against. Of these 63 were charged with' drunkenness, 13 poor law, 23 vagrancy, and 30 with disobeying the Education Act. Three persons charged wiltIi arson, perjury and larceny respectively Were committêd for trial. Of the 34 tramps apprehended for offences,18 were English, 3 Scotch, 7 Irish and 6 "Welsh.
