PABISRIONERS' RECOGNITION OF THE LATE VIOAB. PRESENTATION TO THE REV R. OWEN. On Monday evening, at the Oharoh of England School, Bagilit, there was a large gathering of tho congregation of St. Mary's Oharoh and ihe parishioners generally of Bagillt, for the purpose of presenting thIS retiring Vioar, the Rev Robt, Owen, B.A., upon his leaYing the pariah for Brynymaen, vJlwyn Bay, with a tsstimomal in recognition ot talis services in the parish during the 19 years he h., held the Tioariate of St. Mary's. Av Thos. W. Hughes, Ooleahill, presided, and in his opening remarks said it gave him pleasure, for many reasoaq, to be present at that meeting. Daring the time he Ray U. Owen had been at Bagillt no bad done his doty; they knew what great changed had ttcu place. It WM, perhaps, uaueoeasary .b.t ho should review the h et jry oi tile itiaroll 10 tae parish, but he might say ht dinug tfia urn Mr Owen had been vicar gre t progress ti-d been made. When no first atuio b B.g,lit, they knew what the per i, b eharj » w so it a, it has sinoe oeen renov-ted, and lot 6a0 aher eud 01 the paiisb a oharoh Mi be a built fat congregation "as eOBCldsrauiy >Q're«sed, also the number of coanuaioantf. fh", aoh^uls under his charge aets aiways been maintained in a high state of effioienoy. It was w tn feelings of great regret that they parted with their Vioar, though they oongcaiul-L-ed him upon the preferment whioh he nohlv deserved (hear, hear). Mr damael Lloyd, hon. seo. of the Eestimonial Committee, gave a statement of tlltf movement, and said when the news of their Vioar's ploiar- aent was received a few of the parishioners met together with the view of reoognisiug Mr Owen's eervioes to the parish. rho subscrip- tion hot amounted to between £ 35 and L40. and the sabseribera were from withiu and without the parish. For 16 years he had been an offioMl under the Vioar, and had worked har- moniously, and he hoped to be able to do the none under the new Vioar, and taat he should be as loyal to the new Vicar as ne had been to the old. Considering the poverty of the parish, the Vioar had carried out a very considerable amount of work. He need only mention the enlargement of the Churchyard, .he restratton of tf, Mary's Church, the building of St. Peter's Ghiijoh at the Boot, the new infant sohuul, Improvement of the National Sohools, the foundation of the Church Institute and Library. Further than that, when Bagillt was in a at.t I of industrial depression, and the people in want, the Vioar organised a relief fund, and collected dose upon 9100 for distribution (applause). Mr Lloyd afterwards read a number ot letter, ihe Bural Dean (Rev W. LI. Nicholas) wrote:— When I think of the many years of "rade depression, and then tarn to the many excellent works done by Mr Owen in tha parish, I am forced to the oonolueion that he leaves Bagillt with a reoord not surpassed by any clergyman la the diooese (applauseJ. The Vioar of Holywell (the Rev J. W. Thomas, M.A.), said he aoeepted the invitation to the presentation with pleasure. Though a comparative stranger to them-he had only been Yioai of Holywell for five years-he knew their vioar for 32 years. He knew him when in Oxford; in his first ouraoy, and when he the speaker) came to Holywell he was glad to know he had as adjoining Vioar his old iriond Mr Robt Owen. Everyone who knew laiJ Owen thought most highly of him, and he know several ot the dignatories of the Church, now passed away, who had a high opinion of the talents of Mr Owen. They in Bagillt knew how ihoje talents had been developed during the long fit *y of 19 J roars. Nineteen years, he thought, was too ofig for any man to be in any parish. It was good lot the people and good ior the priest himself to have a change. He oame to tuat meeting not as the patron of the living, but as the friend of the Vioar, to help the parishioners to give him a hearty send off. He was sure th»t iot many years to come lib Owen will have a very warm oorner in the hearts of the people of Bagillt, and he was also sure that during the days to come the people of Bagillt will have a very warm oorner in the heart of the new Vioar ot Bryn- ymaen. They gave Mr Owen and his family their heartiest beat wishes for their mture happiness in Brynymaen. While giving their Tie., a hearty send-off, he asked tj be allowed to bespeak on behalf uf their new incumbent their hearty good wishes. He had not the pleasure of the personal acqaain tnoe of Mr Howell Griffith, but he was told on excellent authority that he will be a worthy successor to Air Owen. With the advent of a new vioar there were new possibilities, new opportunities for the parish. A new man would oome with new ideas and new methods, and other ex- periences, and he would beepeak on his behal their warmest sympathy when he oame into their midst. They would not ta w him at once, it would take some time, and it would be an excellent opportunity for the p &riohtoneris ta weld themselves log-taer in one solid force, to raiae up, as it were, the hands uf the new vioar, in order that the Church of Our Loid Jesus Ohris £ may meet with greater success, if it were possible, even than it had done during the regime of Mr Owtn (applause). The Rev Dr igriffichs, Holywell.. 4td he had great pleasure in attending that meeting to recognise the services of th« Vioar A Bagillt. He was proud to do so, as Mr Owen and him- self were from adjoining villages iu Lleyn, Carnarvonshire. He had known the Vioar f, r some time, and respected him an a Uhristian minister, on aooount of his honesty in his calling. Dr J. Humphry Williams, Flint, spoke in appreciative terms of his friendship with the Vioar. He was glad to be able ta speak of Mr Owen as a man of high moral and pure character. He had had many an argument with the Vicar, whom he found was one of taose men broad enough to allow other men to have and to holdvieve differing from his own, and yet hold them In respect. Referring to Mr Owen's work in the parish, Dr Williams said where the Ohuroh of England progresses really and spiritually, other denominations progressed really and spiritailly. The progress of one ohuroh secures tho progress of all churches. He hoped Mr Owen will ba able to do great work in his new pariah (hear, hear). Mr Ishmael Roberts, Chester, expressed the pleasure it gave him to be present, and U bear testimony to the exoellent work of Mr Owen, as vioar of BagiUt. He wished him every happiness and fltuoeas in his new vicariate. The Chairman, addrnssiog Mr Owen, said be tad gtttfc pitann i pratenting to him, on behalf of parishioners and subscribers, the illuminated address, also the purse of gold, as a token of the high esteem in which he was held by the parishioners. He also asked Mrs Owen to accept the silver salver as a memento of the many happy years spent in Bagillt, and on behalf of the parishioners he wished Air and Mrs Owen and family every suooess and happinese in their new home. The illuminated address read as follows:—"To the Rev Robert Owes, B.A., viaar of Brynymaen, Colwyn Bay. Rev and Dear Sir,—We the parish- ioners of Bagillt, Flinatshiro, and other friends, wiah to express to yoa oar feelings of deep affaatioa and sinoers gratitude for the nigh Christian example which you set as, and the efficient services which you have rendered aa Vioar of the parish for nearly 19 years. Jadgiag by the increase in the number of communicants, aad the Bamber of the oongrega- tion, it is evident that yoar work has been greatly biassed. We shall long remember the happy words yoa have spokaa, and shall alway hope to keep ia friendly touch with yoa. We should like, also, to offer oar congratulations to you on yoar reaeat preferment, to wish yoo and Mrs Owen and family every happiness, and many years of usefulness in yout new parish. T. W.

He was aare he never thought that wbea tie should be leaving he should see euoh iaigus of true friendship and atfeotioB. He would never forget the great kindness reoeived at the hands of all ooaoerned. Xheir Uhairman (Mr HJghet), was one of several gentlemen who never refased to subscribe towards anytoiog he wanted in the parish. tie regarded Me Hughes as oae of those iJeal men whj were never weary of doing good. He was grateful to Mc Tau-nae, the patron of the living aad Vicar ot kiolyweli, for toe kind remarks he had made. He also thanked tne Rev. Dr. Griffiths and Dr. Humphry vViiliams for their kindness. He was grateful to Mr isnmttel Rooerfo, who had travelled irom Uaester purposely to be present at the meeting to Mr Samuel Lloyd ne ivisned to extend his thank. tie ueid Mr liloyd iu the greatest raipeot. He wa< one of nature's gentlemen, and had always been true and AOlat tj him, working harmoniously together for yeari. He tuanked he memoers of tho comwittae together with he treasurer and seoretary. With regard to his friends and parishioners, ha did not know how to express himself, Because hi; leeliags were cnixea. He thought it his daty to aooept the living of Brynymaen. At the same time tie was well sorry to leave Bagillt, as he was very much attaened to the congregation at St. Mary's Utkurctk. lio sincerely emphasised the words of the Vioar of Holywell, with regard to the new Vioar ot St. Mar/'s, that Grod would abundantly bless the labours of his successor. He would find there was a warm heaited congregation worshipping ia St. Mary's. More attentive liateneas he never come acioss. Tn. new Vicar would also find nearly 20" communicants aud he hoped that hia work will be found to 0" the foundation tor further work in the future. There was one thing he was sorry for and that was, tnat there were no regular services in the 4jhuroh at tae Boot, It was hie firm oon- victioa that in every parish where the Welsh laagnage as well as English language was spoken there snoald be means of Grace afforded for whioh ever the cuagregatiou prefered. One of the first things he did, was endeavour to have these eervioes pro- vided, but difficulties arose one after another, and now tor some years he had been ainglehanded in the work. He thought it waa his duty to the parish- ioners aud himself all one who had been working with him, to say that the fault was not with him. He had done his very ntmost to seoure the necessary tunas in orter tuat there should be regular servioes at St. Peter' out he was not able to carry the wors on. Tne Vioar eoaoiaded with a few words of praotical advioo to the congregation on the advent of his auoueaeor, A vote ot thanks waa proposed to the Chairman and the speakers oy the Viuar, seconded by Mr R. ifoulkes, and carried unanimously. ihe Chairman responded, after which the pro- cesaings concluded, un Sunaay evening, the Rev.

County School Governors. The monthly meeting of the Governors of the Holywell County Sohool was held on Satnrday last, when there were preøent :-Mr P. Hardiog Roberts (chairman), Mrs Johnson Jones, Mrs Humphry Williams, Rev Dr Oliver, Dr J. Owen Jones, Messrs J. K. Evans, Peter Jones, H. Vaughan Lloyd, R. Jones Headmaster, Me J. M. Edwards; Clerk, F. Llewellyn Jones; Assistant Olerk, Mr J. Kerfoot Roberts. The formal application under the Charitable Trusts Act, to the Board of Education, for an order for the amendment of the Flintshire Intermediate and Teohnioal Sohools Scheme was presented, and signed by the Ohairman. A letter was read from Flint, calling attention to the Railway Company charging fall fare for pupils travelling to sohool. The writer requested the Governors to appeal to the Railway Company.—The Master remarked that many pupils cycled from Flint to sohool on fine days, and went by train when it was wet.—It was decided to take atepa in the matter, on the proposition of the Rev Dr Oliver, seoonded by Mr J. K. Evans. The question of having new gates was referred to Dr Jones and Mr H. V. Lloyd, with power to act, the cost not to exceed £ 14. Mr Robt. Jones referred to the scholarship examination, and said as there were from 30 to 40 candidates from Flint sohools, he thought the Governors might arrange for Flint to constitute a centre for the scholarship examination. He pointed out that last year the candidates lost twenty minutes through the train being late, and the examiner refused to allow them extra time at the end to make up for what they had lost.-The Clerk said the arrangement might be made, and the main room of the new Coanoil schools could be nsed for the purpose.—The suggestion was adopted, and it was further arranged that one of the teaohers of the County School be appointed to superintend the examination.

THE DEAD HAND. It is a new idea to make a dead man the most powerful personality in a book. That is What Mr. George Sandeman has done in "Uncle Gregory" (Heinemann, 6s.), for Uncle Gregory has been dead some time, but his heirs, execu- tors, and assigns are-for a time-as much under his strong dominion as they were when he was alive, and even more so. Uncle Gregory is in his grave, but his hand has by no means .vanished and his voice is never still. By means of an extraordinary will lie manages that his hand shall fall very heavily upon a number of extremely nice young people who have done nothing at all to deserve such a piece of bad luck. In life he was a great philanthropist, and in his will he left instructions that all his schemes for the betterment of mankind should be carried on and developed by his relatives, who were also to write his "Life." The trust was an overpowering one, and the relatives had no idea how to start about writing his biography. The weight of Uncle Gregory's dead hand bade fair to crush all the life and spirit out of his executors for ever more, when relief came in an unexpected way. The story is wonderfully clever, and the manner in which Uncle Gregory is made to dominate the whole book is a triumph of literary skill. "'E was," as the station-master said, "a miasma on the neighbourhood."

A SPORTING NOVELIST. Mr. Nat Gould, the famous sporting novelist, whose autobiography, under the title of "The Magic of Sport," is to be published by Mr. John Long, has led a strenuous life, travelled in many lands, and spent eleven years in Australia in the "good old days." His "Life should be well worth reading, for he possesses a fund of anecdote, a keen eye for the picturesque and the possibilities, and a wonderful know- ledge of human nature. The public's opinion of Mr. Gould's work may be judged from the fact I that his books have had the enormous sale of over six million copies.

DAVID AND JONATHAN, On the title-page of "Geoffrey Cheriton" (Smith, Elder, and Co., 6s.), by John Baraett, appear the following lines by Mr. Alfred Noyes: "And so, well, it may seem strange to you, but the love of a man for a man (Was the salt of the earth long, long before Dan Cupid's game began." It may be so, but it is, at least, generally assumed that "Dan Cupid's game began" pretty early in this old world's history, while it has always been a long way the more attrac- tive theme to novelists. Mr. Barnett even, although his theme is "the love of a man for a man," has to allow Dan Cupid a hand in the game at last. "Geoffrey Cheriton" is a fine story of the friendship, lasting from school days to manhood, of a nature with every desirable quality but that vague yet unmistakable one called "charm," for another, which had that quality in large measure, but very few other qualities worth having. The central figure in the book is drawn with a sure, firm hand, and is a notable literary portrait. His love for his friend and the sacrifices which he makes for him are heroic, and he was prepared to make a greater and more complete renunciation, but that, fortunately, was not required of him. There is plenty of humour in the book, and, as has been hinted,- Dan Cupid has his part to play. Altogether, the story is one that it is good to rem. A RUSSIAN IDOL. In these days when the greatest singers of the world come sooner or later to London, it seems remarkable that one of the most popular Russian singers should be almost unknown in this country. The story of a singer who is the idol of all Russians, is told in the "Lady's Realm" by Sergius Volkhovsky. Ask a Russian, no matter in what corner of the earth you may meet him, if he knows Vera [Wialsewa. You are quite sure to get your answer in the light which comes into his eyes. His face will assume an expression of mingled longing and pleasure, and his voice will hum the weird strains of a gipsy song. If your Russian be rich, a soldier, and of a sentimental turn of mind, he will probably more than thank you if you could lead him into the presence of the woman you have mentioned. For Wialsewa, a few years ago a humble servant in the pro- vinces of Warsaw, without known father or mother, is to-day the idol of Russia, the most famous of the gipsy singers who provide enjoy- ment for the gilded youth of the land of the Czar in the restaurants of St. Petersburg, and possessed of a thousand titled lovers. More than that, Wialsewa is the heroine of the Russo-Japanese war, and therein rests kef popularity with the Russian soldier.

The Bancrofts have been fortunate ia their friendships, and although it is ovey twenty years since they retired from theatrical management, they have kept in closest touch with their old stage comrades, and have many good tales to tell of Irving, Edwin Booth, the Coquelins, and many other lights of the dramatic, legalj literary, and artistic worlds

An Edinburgh teacher sent a. note the other day to the mother of an absentee, who sent the following reply: "James's eyes are still full of information and can't see." "I suppose you find that a baby brightens up the house?" said a bachelor to a friend who had ranged himself among Benedicks. "Yea," was the semi-sad reply, "we burn twice gas we used to! "Your hat is greatly improved by that wing," said a punning "hubby" to his part- ner. "Yes, but it would look betetr with two wings." Humph That's a matter of a pinion rejoined the incorrigible. "Sanders," demanded an officer, "where:s the new recruit?" "Don't know, sir. I heard him talking about using guncotton to sew a button on his tunic with, and I haven't seen him gince,! "Why did you leave the council meeting before M'Culloch made his speech?" "I thought I'd rather read it in the papers after the reporters had put' it into shape." Miss Woodby: "So Mr. Smart really said' he considered me very witty—eli?" Miss Knox: "Not exactly-; he said he had to laugh every time he met you." "So, you see," concluded a school-mistress, "you should never forget that you must honour and respect your teachers. Now, Francis, tell me why you should respect them?" "On account of their age, miss replied an inattentive pupil. The following extract from a letter of thanks for ia present is cherished by its re- cipient: "The beautiful clock you sent us came in perfect condition, and is now in the parlour on the top of the bookshelves, where we hope to see you soon, and your husband also, if he can make it convenient." w\'Vot'.c,' the matter wiv you?" demanded a, loafer of a respctable-looking man. Y-D A gave me a narsty look!" "Nonsense! You certainly have a nasty look, but, 'pon my word, I didn't give it to you!" was the neat retort. A certain man at Grantham thus delivered himself to a bosom friend the other day:- "I compel my daughter to practise four hours a day," said he. "But you will make her hate music so that she will never want to go near a piano!" "That's what I'm hoping." The following is the reply which a man sent to a bill from his bookseller:—" I never ordered the book; if I did, you didn't send it; if you sent it, I never got it; if I got it, I paid for it; if I didn't, l'won't," A man who did not like work was once itsked how he managed to spend his time. "Well," he said, "some days, I just sit and think, and other days J just sit." What a great army of followers that man has Mental laziness is characteristic of our day, so many people "just sit." They never read a good book. If they do read it is poor stuff, and if there is a good bit of description of landscape I in it, or some bit of history, they read it with I a hop-skip-and-a-jump.

But he is best served who servea himwlf. He only is independent who can vary his social intercourse by the society of books. Reading is a, pleasure within the reach of all. It is the best of occupations, and is withal the cheapest; even desultory reading is better than none.

THE TERRIBLE PAIN] !m KIDNEY A B. Pic. Tolls G Skl1f!¥; A Don't Neglect an Aching Back. It is one of the first Symptoms of Kidney Disease, which causes Dropsy, Urinary and Bladder Troubles, Gravel, -and Rheumatism. I- EYBKYBODY knows that they have kid- neys, but by no means everybody knowi where they are, or what they are, or what they do. There are two kidneys —in shape very much like kidney potatoes- and they lie just under the small of your back, oee on meh side of the backbone, a little below the bottom ribs. What are they? Each kidney is a filter, working hard, day and night. all your life long. 11 your kidneys eeased to work you would die ai surely as if your heart oosied to beat. You all know the great o&m you should take if you have any symptoms of hostft disea"; it is equally OSNntial that you take the greatest care If you find you have any symptom of kidney trouble. The Iddueyo- these two busy filters —are alwayt at work purifying the blood, filtering from n, after its passage through your body, atie aeid, superfluous water and other waote and poisonous matters which it bat gatbered ep.

WMa you foo a (tain or m aehe in your baek yoa don't think much about it, unless it grows to be very l*»d. Bat you should think about it. Now you know where your kidneys are don't you realise that if they ache it will seem to you to be baakaehe ? When you are absolutely well you sutler no pain, and it is only when weak or diseased that your kidneys ache. Tills is cno very frequent symptom of kidney disease; theio are many others, and unless you know what they are you may be suffering from kidney disease without being aware of the fact. The sooner you find out the better, for kidney disease is far less difficult to cure when taken early than when it has been allowed to run on and get a firm hold. As soon as you do find out take Doan's Backache Kidney Pills, which act directly and efficaciously on the kidneys. Among these other symptoms are shooting or dull pains in the loins or in the region of the bladder, 1 urinary troubles of any sort, watery swellings under the eyes or roimd the ankles, dizziness, ringing noiaeg in the ears, and specks before the eyes. III. Kidney disease is the direct cause of many terrible illnesses, such as dropsy, gravel, stone, rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago and neuralgia. 'Indeed these are kidney diseases, and can be only cured if you cure your kidneys. -For example, to try to cure rheuma- tism by rubbiug in lotions and ointments is as sensible as to try to ma.ke your chimney stop smoking by clean- ing up the hearth.
