St. Asaph Board of Guardians. DISCUSSING OLD AGE PENSIONS. Mr. Edwin Morgan presided o.ver the fort- nightly meeting of this Board held om Friday, Mr. J. Frimston occupying the vice-chair. The following members were also present:—Mrs. De Ranee, Mrs. Mary Jones, Miss Owen Jones, Mrs. Howell Gee, Messrs. John, Pierce, Thomas Evans, Robert Davies, John Jones (Abergele), John Lothian, Hugh Edwards, J. Ellis Jones, Wililliam Morris, Owen, Rees, Jiohn Morris, Wim. Jones, Isaac Batho, W. S. Roberts, Robert Jones (Prestatyn.), William Williams, Robert Jones ,(Denbigh), W. Conwy-Bell, S. Perks, and T. W. Jones together with the Clerk (Mr. Charles Grimsley), the Master (Mr. Robert Jones), and the other officials. GUESTS AND CALLERS. According to. the Master's Journal the pauper population of the workhouse that day was 149, a decrease of 16 on the number a year ago, and the vagrants relieved during the past fortnight numbered 178, a decrease of one on the number a year ago. Mrs. De Ranee: That difference may be small, but it is on the right side. (Hear, hear.) Miss Owen Jones said it seemed to her that the present number of inmates was very high. The Master said the number fluctuated very much. Since the last meeting of the Board there had been 26 admissions and 25 discharges. COST OF LUNACY. Amongst the amounts passed for payment was one for 6433 13s. 3d., being the cost of the main- tenance of asylum patients, chargeable to the Union. PIG-BREEDING: GOOD PROFIT. The Master reported that he had disposed of nine pigs for ^38, at a profit to the Board ot ^29 is. 3d. The pigs originally cost 67 10s. gd., and I) 8s. was spemlt on two sacks of flour to supplement the workhouse scraps on which they were fed. These pigs had been, replaced by eleven young ones at a cost of 16s. 3d. each, and he hoped to sell two in January and the remain- der in April. Mr. J. Ellis Jones said that to his mind the report about the pigs was. not as satisfactory as it seemed, and he thought the sooner they re- sorted to dealing out the bread to the inmates just as they wanted it the better it would be for the Union. Anybody knew that the expenditure of Ci 8s. on flour wias not a sufficient explana- tion of the profit that had been made on the pigs sold. There must be a great waste some- where but he would not go so. far as. to say that it was intentional. The Master said that, if Mr. Jones lived at the workhouse he wouild form: an opinion different from that which he had just expressed. The in- timates couldl claim a certain quantity of bread, according to the dietary tables confirmed by the Local Government Board, and while the staff ndeavouTed, as far as possible, to use up all the bread that had to. be cut, they could not justly .serve it twice after the handling and maul- ing that necessarily took place, and especialy ,after passing amongst the sick inmates. The uestiÜln of dispensing with the present regula- tions as to the serving of bread and allowing the inmates to take just what they wanted was con- sidered by a committee a year or two ago, out they came to. the conclusion that it would be better to. keep to the existing arrangement. In some places where Mr. Jones' suggestion had been adopted it had soom been abandoned. He assured the Board that there was no preventable waste going on in the workhouse, and that the pigs had nothing which could be used in any other way. (Hear, hear.) Mr. John Roberts said it was significant that those members of the Board who kept animals had no criticisms to make upon the pig trans- action. Mr. Ellis Jones should keep a pig, and then he would known what he was talking about .(Laughtex.) Mr. J. Ellis Jones I do. keep pigs, and know something about them. Mr. John Roberts Then you ought to know better. (Laughter.) CHINESE HAM FOR THE WORKHOUSE! During a "discussion upon provisions, &c., re- quired for the workhouse during the ensuing fortnight, comment was made upon the high price, of some of the articles. ,One member ventured to suggest that some- thing might be saved by going in for Chinese bams but this was too much for the rest of the Board, and the subject was quickly dropped. We must support home industries whatever the cost," remarked Mr. John Lothian amidst the plaudits of several of his. colleagues. THE DENBIGHSHIRE COUNTY RATE. The Clerk reported the receipt of a letter from the De,nbighshire County Council announcing that the rates for the ensuing half-year would be a penny less than what had been estimated. Mr. William Jones (evidently thinking of the mexft County Council election) Vile must know what that means very well. (Hear, hear, and laughter.) OLD-AGE PENSION HARDSHIPS. The Clerk said he had received an enquiry from the Old-age Pensions Officer for the district with respect to. the eligibility of a certain man for a pension. It appeared that the: man was a drover by occupation but owing to a disable- ment he had to: seek admission to the workhouse. It now depended upon the answer of the Board to the enquiry whether the man would set a pension or not. What they had to find out was -whether the man came to the house simply for medical assistance, or on, account of general des- titution. If the former, he would, be entitled to .a pension. Mr. Bell said that from what he knew of the case it was one in which the Board should de- cide in favour of a pension. Mr. Batho. said the question of qualifying or disqualifying for an old age pension, was a very serious matter, and in the interests of the old people he thought that when any of them were contemplating seeking relief in any form they should be cautioned as to the risk they ran of losing their pensions:. He hoped the officers of the Union would do. all they could for the guid- ance of people near the qualifying age for old- agie pensions. The Relieving Officer for the district to which (the case under consideration belonged, admitted that when giving the man a ticket of admission to the workhouse1 he did not caution him with respect to his pension, but if he had thought that this difficulty was likely to arise he would cer- tainly have seen that the man had a medical cer- tificate before entering the workhouse. Mr. Bell, in supporting the remarks of Mr. Batho-, said he was Chairman of the Oild-age Pensions Committee for his district, and he had had some experience of a good many hard cases of disqualification. It would be a very great hardship indeed if this man was denied^a pen- sion. It was a sad thin? that the Act dealing with Old-age Pensions should be marred by such a. flaw as disqualified cases like this. Mr. Perks took exception to the. remark of Mr. Bell as to there being a flaw in the Act. He did not think that was the case. This was a new measure, and its framers had to proceed some- what cautiously in the first instance, as they could not do much better than guess at the amount of money that would be required to pay .Y the pensions. They could not, therefore, help hardships arising now and again. Modifications were, however, being introduced with the view of enabling the Act to work as smoothly as pos- sible, and in. order to. remove some of the pre- sent disabilities it had been decided to drop the clause which operated against those cases in the near future..(Hear, hear.) Mr. Bell said that as the Act stood there was no doubt that it operated very harshly against a large number of people. To mention only one instance that had come under his personal ob- servation., the granting of 3s. relief for just one week had resulted in a man losing his pension. Mr. Perks That is not due to any flaw in the Act. Mr Bell: I maintain that it is due to a flaw in the Act. It was decided to inform the Old-age Pensions Offioer that the case he had called attention to was one of medical treatment only as far as ei>e Board were concerned, and that the man was therefore entitled to a pension. THE MASTER A BARBARIAN." During the hearing of a case for relief, it was stated that a boy was employed at a barber's shop for 2is.a week. Mr. Thomas Evans reminded the Board that barbers evidently did not pay much for labour. Mr. J. Ellis Jones But the boy is learning his trade. Mr. Hugh Edwards: The Master is a bar- barian. (Laughter.)

The Council considered the report of the Joint IHjospital Committee as to the provision of an isolation hospital, and a letter was also, read from the Denbighshire Infirmary Committee drawing alttenltÍon to the urgent need of an in fectious Hospital in the district. After some discussion, Mr. Thomas Evans (Abergele) stated that at the lasit meeting of the Council be had proposed tihat in consequence of the bad season for farmers, &c., that they leave the question of the erection, of a hospital alone for the present. However, since then he had reasons ito think that it would be wise to give their support to the Joint Committee for the election of a hospital. (Hear, hear.) He pro- posed that they support the Joint Committee. Mr. T. Ufelyn Jones seconded, and it was carried. ROAD-WIDENING AT ABERGELE. The Committee's report respecting the pro- posed road-widening at Brynttanigl, Abergele, was considered, and it was decided to adopt the recommendation of the Committee that the road be widened 4ft. in certain places. Mr. John Roberts (Llwyni, Abergele) was ap- pointed a Governor of the University College of North Wales for 19,10. A letter was read from the London and North- Western Railway Company as to the road sur- face water drainage near Trefnant station, and it was referred to. a committee. ALLEGED DANGEROUS CORNER. A communication was read from Mr. A. P. Richardson, Hafod, Trefnant, as to the alleged dangerous corner over the railway bridge at Trefnaint, and enclosing correspondence with the Company's Surveyor and the Royal Automobile Clulb on; the same subject. After some discussion, it was decided to leave the matter in the Clerics hands to be dealt with. SURFACE, DAMAGE AT ANFAI.RT ALIHAIARN. Several letters, were read from claimants for surface damage at Llanfairtalhaiaru. A discussion ensued, and it was ultimately de- cided to offer certain terms to close the matter. A WORKMAN'S CLAIM FOR COMPENSATION. The case of a roadman's claim for compensa- tion came, up again before the Council. The facts have been published several1 times in. these columns. Henry Williams stated that he lost an eye. through injuries whilst at work. Williams, who is over 7° and in receipt of an old-age pen- sion, is unable to work, and he stated it was through the injuries he received whilst in the employ of the Council. The matter has been considered by the Insurance Company concerned and they offer £60, or 8s. per week during life, Williams to pay his solicitors' and doctor's fees out of that amount. W illiams, on the other hand, claims a larger sum to include the above fees. His brother appeared before the Council, and stated Williams" position and several suggestions were 'made to him to take to his brother with a view of an. amicable settlement. rilE NORiTH WALES ADVERTISING BOARD. A circular Letter was read from the North Wales Advertising Board, enclosing a report and scheme for consideration by the Council. The Clerk stated that the Council could not spend any money in the advertising of health resorts out of the Council's funds, but it might be done by private enterprise amongst them- selves. It was decided that the letter lie on the table. THE WATER SUPPLY AT BETTWS, ABE,RGELE. Mr. E. O. Evans, Surveyor, reported that he had made an inspection of the whole village of Bettws on Monday and found that there were eight houses belonging to different owners that had been supplied with a wholesome supply of water from, the scheme recently constructed for the village by the Coed Coch estate. There were several other places in the village without a wholesome supply of wiater within a reason- able distance, and he suggested that the Coed Coch Estate should be asked to supply their property in the village not already supplied with waiter, and also, whether they were pre- pared to supply other houses in the ^neiigh- bourhood with water. He also made an inspec- tion. of the broolk nearest the Saracen's1 Head, to which the Medical Officer of Health referred in his annual report of last year, in which he recommended that a notice board should be placed near the public-house warning against the use of the brook water. There is an open drain connected with the brook from the Saracen's Head, and there are other drains con- nected with the brook at a higher point, and as far as he could find out the water from the brook was used for washing and watering cattle, and water for drinking purposes was obtained from the public wells. The report was adopted. IXANDDULAS WATER. The Surveyor stated that he had found that an excessive volume of water was registered by the meters, and on making an inspection) of the district, water was found leaking at Tý Ucha', an unoccupied house. Some person had turned the water on, and that had since been stopped. Water was laid on to Sea, View on the 5th inst. The. readings on the meter on the service pipe to the railway station on the 29th September last was 156,262 gallons.

;aaqB>"<»"C3anc-^gp» The Church Lads' Brigade. PROGRESS OF THE COLWYN BAY COMPANY. For some twelve months a Company of the Church Lads' Brigade has been in existence at Colwyn Bay, and recently they were officially recognised. The boys were inspected at their drill 'hall, the Church Room, by Major E Ellis Williams, of Pontrobert, Welshpool, and came out of the ordeal with much credit. As a result, they have now become the Colwyn. Bay Company of the St. Asaph Regiment. Second Lieutenants' commissions have been granted, to Mr W. H. l'richard officer commanding, and to Mr G. H. Maddock, and very shortly Mr l'richard will re- ceive the rank of Captain, and Mr Maddock that of First Lieutenant. The chaplain of the Com- pany is the Rev. Canon Hugh Roberts, and the Rev. R. D. Hughes is the assistant chaplain. Mr J. Lowndes has been appointed Sergeant-In- structor, and a position will also be found for Mr T. H. Baskerville. The correspondent is Mr P. Gimson, who also acts as pianist. Our readers are well acquainted with the aims and -objects of 'the Church Lads' Brigade, as fre- quent articles have appeared in these columns dealing with the Church Lads' Brigade camps that are formed in the locality in summer. The local Company was organised by the efforts of Mr W. H. Prichard, who has received great As- sistance from: the gentlemen mentioned. The Company numbers forty lads, and drill takes place every 'Tuesday evening in the Church Room. On the occasion that our representative attended, he was much struck by the keenness of the. boys, who, it was evident, took a very lively interest in their work. Before the drill commenced a short service was held, conducted by the assistant chaplain, and then Lieutenant Prichard read to the Company Major Williams' report on the inspection. From this it appeared that both the drill and the physical exercises had been, very well done. It had 'been decided that on the evening in question Corporals, and Lance- Corporals should be s-elt-cte(f from the men, in the Company, and after Lieutenant Maddock had supervised the drill, the 'chosen underwent the test. Their primary efforts to give orders were very amusing, but there was no mistaking their earnestness, and, at the close the following were appointed:—Corporals: T. Hughes, D. O. Jones, W. Hulley, and D. J. Williams; Lance- Corporals H. Hartley, E, S. Jones, C. H. Coul- som, and T. E. Jones. They were invested with their stripes by the officer commanding, who. im- pressed upon them the importance of their posi- tions, and having instructed them in their duties informed them they had the opportunity to rise to. the rank of Sergeant. In the course of a .short interview, Lieutenant Prichard kindly gave some interesting informa- tion concerning the Company. Apart from the general aspect of the benefit the training confers upon the lads-and it is well known that their grounding is far better than that of the Terri- torials—the Colwyn Bay Company derives ad- vantage in other ways. They have a well-ap- pointed games room, .where they may indulge in billiards, bagatelle, and many other pastimes, and, thanks to the kindness of Mrs Evans, Gwern Tyno Farm, a field has been placed at their disposal where the lads repair on Saturday after- noon to play football. It is hoped that next year the Company will go' away for a period of camp- ing, and with this object, the lads make weekly contributions towards their expenses.
- Small Holdings in Denbighshire.

Small Holdings in Denbigh- shire. ATTITUDE OF THE LANDLORDS. Very interesting information respecting the progress of the Small Holdings movement in the county was given at a recent meeting of the Denbighshire County Council, presided over by Mr. A. O. Evans (Denbigh). With regard to the Abergele district, the Land Agent of the Council (Mr. R. Herbert Williams) reported that the Board of Agriculture approved of the County Council leasing the Tir Prince Land, Towyn, consisting of 50'122 acres, at an annual rental of 30s. per acre. "This," he added, "will enable the Council to satisfy the three under-mentioned persons, who have been recommended by the District Committee, to be- come tenants of the proposed three small holdings into which the land is to be sub-divided :—25 077 acres to be let to Edward Parry Jones, Pontydd Towyn 15'486 acres to be let to Richard Williams, Towyn, Abergele 9 559 acres to be let to Thomas Jones, Ty Newydd, Towyn." THE KINMEL ESTATE. I hope to be in a position to submit a definite satisfactory proposal respecting about 60 acres of land on the Kinmel Estate at the next meeting of the Local Committee." A LLANSANNAN DISPUTE. The proceedings of the Small Holdings Committee showed that negotiation* were in progress for the acquisition of various portions of pasture and arable land, and that since thi last meeting eleven fresh applications for holdings had been received. Approval had been obtained from the Board of Agriculture for the acquisition of a further area of 12S acres, which provides for six small holdings, while the district committees bad made provisional arrangements for the acquisition of other land consisting of 48 acres, suitable for sub-division, to meet the requirements of six of the council's applicants, Eight applicants had been supplied with 109 acres of land direct by. the landowners as a result of the intervention of the thoir behalf. Although the committee decided at their previous meeting to apply for a compulsory order to acquire land in the Wrexham and Ruabon districts, satisfactory terms were obtained before any preliminary steps had been taken. With regard to twenty-eight acres of land at Rossett,, the Wrexham Committee recommended an application for a com- pulsory order for acquisition, but the Small Holdings Committee deferred the application until a report and valuation of the Burton Tower Estate had been obtained and considered. The trustees of the Dyffryn Aled Estate, Llansannan, were prepared to entertain an offer of X95 per annum for the leasing of Ty Newydd, consisting of out-buildings, together with fifty-eight acres or thereabouts of arable and pasture land, whereas the council's land agent's valuation was X75 per annum. It was resolved that in the event of a lease been arranged on reasonable terms the Dyffryn Aled trustees be asked to accept the council as tenants at a rent to be fixed by a valuer to be appointed by the Board of Agriculture and, should the trustees not agree to that suggestion, that compulsory powers to obtain a lease of the farm be applied for. Mr. Gomer Roberts said the committee had tried every means to come to an agreement with regard to these fifty-eight acres. There were seven applicants for this land, and it it could be had they would be satisfied. The committee had been as slow as they possibly could in coining to the determination to seek compulsory powers. At the same time, they were bound to satisfy the reasonable demand of these seven applicants, and they very much regretted to be compelled to take this step. The committee also felt very much obliged to a great many landowners and agents, who up to now had helped the committee to a very great extent to bring this Act into a workable condition. COST OF COMPULSORY POWERS. Mr. D. MacNicoll (Colwyn Bay) moved a resolution against the delegation to the committee of powers to apply for compulsory purchase, and pointed out that most of the applicants for small holdings had other occupations, and were not, therefore, going to be entirely dependent upon these holdings. He urged that it was unwise to displace agriculturists merely in order to gratify the desires of these applicants. Mr. George Bevan (Colwyn Bay), in seconding the resolution, said he did not think it was right that a small committee like this should have power to embark upon these expensive proaeedings. Sir Watkin Wynn What is the cost of compulsory powers ? The Clerk: The cost is very trivial, because it simply means an inquiry by the Board of Agri- culture. Mr. Wilcoxon (Bersham) asserted that it cost nothing to the county. Sir Watkin Wynn I have my doubts upon that point. Mr. George Cromar (Rossett) declared that certain landowners had endeavoured to make the Act a farce by reason of the persistent obstacles which they had thrown in the way of the committee. The committee had been very lenient and forbearing in not taking active steps before now. While giving full credit to all the Landed proprietors in the county who had come to the aid of the Council, there were several who had shuffled out of their obligations, and raised as many obstacles as they possibly could in order to prevent the Act becoming a success. Colonel Cornwallis West controverted this state- ment, which, he submitted, was not borne out by the facts. He denied entirely that agricultural land- owners had opposed these small holdings lie did not think there had been a single case of opposition with the exception of the one at Llansannan. Sir Watkin Wynn, replying to an argument of Mr. Gomer Roberts's, that quite as much money was wanted for land without building upon it as for land with building upon it, said it was his experience that the expense with regard to the house was lost. You got m rent for the house, which was an adjunct of the farm, and it was presumed that land could not be farmed unless the farmer had the building. Ultimately Mr. MacNicoll withdrew his motion against delegation.

Llandudno and Colwyn Bay Electric Tramway. NEW AND IMPROVED CARS. The Tramway Company has achieved a suc- cess which warrant further developments. The popularity of the service has exceeded all ex- pectations, and the Company have added some new cars to the service, which are more up-to- date than the former ones. The comfort of the passengers has been studied to a degree. The new cars are known as the Preston semi-con- vertible," and are of most elegant design. There are patent windows, which can be dropped down easily when required in warm weather, and when closed they leave the car draughtless but perfectly ventilated. The seating is of the trans- verse reversible back rattan pattern spaced witli the windows, and passengers can thereby obtain the views on each side of the car whilst travel- ling. The trucks are of the new Warner type, which run smoothly. The arrangmeents and fittings in the cars are also most pleasing. The Company is to be congratulated upon its enterprise. _a_

Great Success of New Home Treatment for Accidents. Splendid Testimony to Value of Preparation which Prevents Blood Poisoning from Cuts, Burns, Sores, Wounds, &c. HOW TO DEAL WITH ALL CASES OF ACCIDENT. The splendid success that has attended the in- troduction of a new method of dealing with all cases of sudden accident is a sign that the pub- lic have long awaited what may be described as a home hospital. Marabaz is the preparation which heals and prevents blood poisoning, and which has taken possession of the public, and as will be seen from the testimonials below it is a reliable, safe, and certain remedy for all similar, cases therein mentioned. We meed not emphasise how necessary it is to have at hand some simple preparation which may be immediately applied to. wounds to pre- vent blood poisoning. It is not too much to say that persons have lost their lives through simple accidents such as the tearing of the flesh with a rusty nail, or the cutting of the hand with an unclean instrument. No such danger will attend any wound if attended at once w:th Marabaz." It is the great ointment with the great history. For 75 years in the possession of a family of independent means the recipe for Marabaz was held a secret, but thanks to the generosity of the owner it is now placed in the hands of a Company, who are ready to supply any quan- tity of Marabaz as may be desired. Any chemist will supply YoJ. with "Mambaz," which is sold in specially-designed boxes, at is. id. and 2s. 9d., or can be obtained direct from Marabaz Co., Redditch. We give below a series of letters from, actual users, which prove definitely that Marabaz is a quick healer of cuts, burns, sores, wounds, ulcers, &c. It is a wonderful poultice ointment, of three-fold value, that is immediately effective in drawing, cleansing, and healing, and which should certainly be found in every home. You should make sure to ask your chemist for a box of Marabaz," which will save you hours of worry. It may be used for children's accidents as well as those of grown-up people. "MARABAZ" NEVER FAILS. A fishmonger seriously poisoned his finger with a fish bone, and was treated for a long time without any success. The finger grew worse, until it bee ime absolutely necessary to' amputate it to save the hand. On the morning of the pro- posed operation he decided to try this ointment, which has been known locally for so long. After the first few dressings, there was a decided im- provement, the poison being drawn away, the pain was lessened, and in a fortnight the finger was completely healed." OPEN SORES. Another case is that of a stump of an ampu- tated finger, which would not heal despite the continued treatment at the hospital. It remained a running wo-ind for weeks. Marabaz was at last applied, and in a few days it was on the road to a perfect healing." Below are a few testimonials. The names and addressees of the writers of the originals can be seen on application • — WOUNDS FROM EXPLOSIVES. Gentlemen,—While celebrating the reliet ot Lady.smith, I met with a most serious accident through the bursting of a cannon, causing me terrible1 injuries, including a compound fracture of the right side of the face, and compound frac- ture of the right leg, the bones in each case being quite smashed and protruding from the flesh in many places. I was in the hospital for 18 weeks, during which time I suffered fearful agony. The nurses and officials of the hospital did all tlhey possibly could, for me; in fact, I cannot give them sufficient praise for their ten- der care a,nd consideration., and although, when I left their care, I was not by any means cured on account of the fact that the wound would not heal, and scores of pieces of bone were: still in different parts of my face and leg causing fa.stering and discharging. Unfortunately, I could gain no relief whatever from other Oint- ments, of which I heard, and tried scores, until I tried your Marabaz,' and after using this pre- paration my leg and face became quite healed and perfectly clean from all foreign matters and pieces of smashed bone, Marabaz having acted in a most wonderful manner in drawing and healing at the same time.—Yours truly, J. N. B." Sirs,—It gives me great pleasure to mention a few of the wonderful cures Marabaz has wrought, that have come under my own notice. BOILS AND WHITLOW. A man had a nasty boil upon his neck, the worst I have ever seen. I dressed it for him several times, and soon it was completely cured. Another case of poisoned finger was cured after a few dressings. My niece had a bad Whitlow upon her toe after many things had been tried, Marabaz cured it completely, leaving it its proper size, too.—Yours, truly, K. C." BURNS AND SCALDS. Sirs,—It gives me great pleasure to testify as to the wonderful cure of Marabaz effected to my wife's finger. It was caused by a burn* in the first place, and. took bad ways. After trying many remedies without relief, she tried Mara- baz,' which soon effected a complete cure. I should like to mention a neighbour's case also. A child was badly scalded down the face and chest, and it was thought she would be disfigured for lif e.. 'Marab<iz,' however, was used, and made a wonderful cure, leaving no. mark what- ever.—Yours truly, S. M." Sirs,—I have had several occasions for using Marabaz,' and on each occasion it has effected a most surprising cure. In fact, no. household should be without it.—Yours truly, W. H. A" Sirs,—I have much pleasure in recommend- ing 'Ma.rabazo' I have used it for various cases, viz. Whitlows, Boils, Poisoned Fingers, and such like, and in no case has it been a failure. I sincerely hope I may be able to obtain it when- ever required. I have sent it to friends in vari- ous parts of England, and always with most favourable results.—Yours truly, E. P." A farm labourer was severely scalded upon the chest, arms, and legs: by a pot of boiling water falling upon him. The wounds were ter- rible, and everything was done for his relief that could be done. He grew worse, the flesh refus- ing to heal, and it was thought he could not re- cover. As a last resource, it was decided to try Marabaz,' as so much had been heard of it in its favour. A large supply was sent for by the farmer who em-ployed him, and a good dressing given to all; the affected parts. The result was miraculous. The plasters were drawn away time after time without any adhesion whatever, and in a short time the man. was about the farm again as well as ever." "Dear Sirs,- I want to thank you for your kindness in sending me the box of Marabaz." It has already nearly cured my face, and I am greatly obliged :ta you for it.— H. H." Dear Sirs,—I am on a driving tour in North Devon, and am suffering from a very bad sore on any foot. Kindly send me a box of your wonderful Marabaz,' which cured my finger some time ago Send per return to Clovellev Post Office.^ T." You should remember that to neglect even the most trivial accident is to court the worst disas- ter, and when there is so simple and cheap a remedy as Marabaz," surely it is unnecessary to place one's self in unnecessary danger. If you have a wound that will not heal, if you are troubled with. any skin, disease that proves unamenable to ordinary treatment you are strongly advised to obtain a supply of Mara- baz." Marabaz is not a modern remedy suggested on the spur of the moment. The 75 years of ex- perience have proved its power, and wherever it has been introduced, its wonderful powers hav,e been fully appreciated. It is on sale at all chemists at is. id. and 2S. gd., or can be ob- tained direct from the proprietors Marabaz Co., Redditch.
