On the application of Mr E Tegidit Owei>, Castle Hotel, Eathin, an occasional licence wits granted him in connection with The Tennis Ball" to be held in the T wa Hall on 2nd November next from 0.:10 p.m. uutil 2.30 a.m. The fuil transfer of the licence of the Anchor Inn, Ruthin, was granted to Mr W H Kisby, retired qaarter-masier sergeant of the 15th Hussars, upon the xpplication of Mr Aneurin 0 Evans, s>>iicicor. The same advocate also gained the full transfer of the Swan Inn, Ruthin—belong- ing to the Ruthin Charities-for Mr ,Evan Evans, of ibron Felin, Lianbedr, in succession to Mr William Parry Hughes, who now holds the licence of the Drover's Arms, Rhewl. The licence of the Plough lun, Llan- dsgla, was granted to Mrs Harrison from the executors of the late Mr Edward Harrison. HUSBAND AND WIFE MAKE UP DIFFERENCES. Mary Jane Lilley, wife of James Lilley, hawker, Ruthin, had summoned her husband on a charge of persistent cruelty to her, but she now appeared and asked for a withdrawal of the summons, which Vf&9 granted. Mr 0 It Moseley, Denbigh, acting on behalf of the magistrates'derk (Mr Edward Roberts), who is confined to the house through indisposition, said the parties bad made it up together. 0 UNLAWFUL WOUNDING CHARGE. INJURED MAN UNABLE TO APPEAR IN COURT. The charge of unlawful wounding pre- ferred agaiiiSt John and Edward Jones, hawkers, Ruthin—father and son-again came before the court, but the buperin- tendent of Police produced a medical certificate to state that Robert Jones, of Mwrog-street-the injured man-was imfit to attend the court that day. In consequence of this a remand of the case was asked for, and granted until this (Friday) morning. The elder prisoner was rebound in his own recognisances to appear, but Supt Joins objected to bail being granted to the son unless he could fiud substantial sureties. The charge, re- marked the Superintendent, was a very serious one, and a very bad assault case indeed. The Bench ultimately agreed to allow bail for the son in two sureties of £ oG each, to be accepted as satisfactory to the police.
DENBIGHSHIRE AND FLINTSHIRE…
DENBIGHSHIRE AND FLINTSHIRE AGRICULTURAL SOCIETY. The adjourned annual meeting of the above society was held at the Wynnstay Arms Hotel, Wrexham, on Monday, Mr P P Pennant presiding. Wrexham, it should be stated, is the locus of next year's show. The report stated that the Finace Com- mittee were not this year in a positition to congratulate the members upon the society's increased financial prosperity. On the year's working there was a debit balance of S20, which was principaly owing to the fact that prizes worth RI,50 were given over and above those at the previous show held at Ruthin in 1902. During the year there was a net increase of thirty-five members. The assets of the soeiety amounts to £1,368, over 21,000 of which is invested in the Bank of England. Mr Godfrey Fitzhugh, Plaspower, Wrexham, is the president of the society for the ensuing year. Mr Philip Ashworth, Horsley Hall, near Wrexham, was elected vice-president. The following honorary appointments were also made :—Mr Thomas Bury, hon. solicitor, and Mr Frank Lloyd, hon. auctioneer, with Mr W N Capper, auditor.

WAEN—ST. ASAPH.
WAEN—ST. ASAPH. PARISH COUNCIL. A meeting of the Council was held at the Schoolroom, Waen, on Friday evening, present: Rev W M Jones (chairman), Mr Thomas Jones (vice-chairman), Councillors Peter Williams, John Parry, W Wynne, Abel Hughes, Isaac Jones, and the clerk (Mr E Williams). POSTAL FACILITIES. Sometime ago the Council made an appli- chtion to the Postal Authorities for a letter-box to be placed by the Penpalmant cross-roads. The application was refused as the circumstances did not warrant the placing of one. The Council made another attempt by commnnicting with Mr Hertert Lewis, the popular M.P. for the county, and Junior Lord uf the Treasury, asking him to bring the matter under the notice of the Postmaster General. This Mr Lewis promptly did, and in a shore time the Postmaster General sanctioned the placing of a letter box in the place men- tioned, which has proved a great con- venience to the parishioners. On the mation of the vice-chairman, seconded by Mr J Parry, the Council passed a resolution thanking Mr Lewis for his kindness in the matter. CERTAIN LAND. On the motion of Mr J Parry, seconded by Messrs P Williams and W Wynne, the question relatiu to contain plots ot land in the parish was adjourned to make farther inquiries. RATE INCREASES. On the motion of Mr Abel Hugbes, seconded by. the vice-chaiiman, the clerk was directed to write to the clerk to the St Asaph (Flint) R.D.C. for an explanation as to the cause of an increase of rates. WATER SUPPLY. This matter was adjourned until the next meeting to enable the officials of the R.D.C. to be present. BOOKS. On the motion of Mr Peter Willi* ns, seconded by Mr J Parry, the Clerk was requested to procure books for the Counoil. The Council unanimously passed a vote of thanks to the Clerk for curtailing the expenses of the parish.
llangynhafal.
llangynhafal. I LLANGANHAFAL HARVEST FESTIVAL. The obvious necessity of a favourable day meteorologically for a gathering at Llangauhafal Church boes without saying it; and this year tno morning broke with a forbidding attitude, but whatever in- fluences lprevailed from noon onwards the conditions were ideal, and as a consequence the congregations most satisfactory. The titst bervice was timed for 3 o'clock p.m., when an excellent attendance pre- sented itself; the preacher on the occasion being the Rev Richard Cuffe, vicar of St Stephen's, Edge Hill, Liverpool, who delivertd an interesting and instructive sermon. The service was as usual fuUy choral, with the addition of an anthem by Maunder; one harvest hymn as a pro- cessional, and 385 before the sermon, 0 God, our help in ages past," after, and All hail the power of Jesus' name as a receptional. It does not in any way de- tract from the way the choir did its duty to mention that the Church was vocal with song. The proper psalms and all were joined in heartily. The evening service was exactly on the same lines, and the anthem in English, ail else being in Welsh,, it scarcely needs mentioning that this was a hearty service, every seat being supplied with the form of service and with the appropriate hymn. The Church had not anempty sitting, and the sermon was listened to with rapt attention, the preacher being the Ven Archdeacon Howell Griffith. The service was intoned at both the services by the Rev James Davies, vicar of Llanrhaiadr, and the lesson at the after- noon service were read by the Rev D Williams, vicar of Llanynys, and at the evening service by the Rev Pugh Jones, Llanfair D.C. The Church was beautifully and lavishly decorated. The sinctaary, as usual, had the majestic palms, and the chief points were decked out with growing plants in bloom, the pulpit, lectern, choir, and font being most elaborately treated. Cut flowers, corn, fruits, and coloured foliage nearly enveloped the whole build- ing, and it seemed almost a pity that their reign was so short, but they were retained over the following Sunday, and had suffered nothing in the interval. The ladies of the congregation undertook the whole of the work, assisted by Mr Jennings, the head gardener at Plas Isa, and his assistant, H Armor. Mr Lund (churchwarden), Mr Hugh Griffiths, and Mr Bleakley were every- where assisting the Rector in carrying out the arrangements; and Col Bromhead, the Rector's warden, was unavoidably absent indisposition. Miss Nellie Jones presided at the organ. Between the services tea was provided at the Rectory, at which residents and visitors attended, and were entertained by Miss Grace Jones; the choir being pro- vided for at the adjoining schoolroom by Mrs John Jones, The Hand, and Miss Shone, The Swan. The offertory collections were the best yet realised at these services. I-

tjQW KELSON'S SAILORS WERE…
tjQW KELSON'S SAILORS WERE FED. If we have the curiosity to inspcet the diefc chart of Nelson's sailors, we discover the chief item to be pork, relieved by a mixture of flour and dried fruits, probably currants. Sir TANCIS Laking says the wholesome and nutritious qualities of Currant Bread (either j White or Hovial) is unequalled by any food. URRANTS, AS a matter of fact, CONTAIN far more actual nutriment than lean beef and in a FORM ] teady for speedy digestion AND assimilation. < Even the strongest men are not exempt from sudden and agonizing attacks of rheumatism, as is proved by the experience of Mr. John Havelock, of 7, Gresford-street, South Shields, who is well-known in the North as a splendid all-round athlete. His prowess has won him numerous cups, and he was second in the great 12-stone Wrestling Championship open to all Northumberland. I am fond of all athletic sports, and my strength arid energy have been remarked upon often," said Mr. Havelock to a Press man recently, but a change rapidly came over me; all the life seemed to leave my body. I could get no rest at night, and in the morning I felt so tired and worn out that it was only by an effort that I could dress myself. I- My appetite failed completely, and the least exertion brought on profuse perspira- tions. These seemed to sap every atom of strength, and from a healthy, vigorous man I became a wreck. The doctor I consulted said I was suffering from a severe attack of influenza, and unless soon cured rheumatism would set in. His words were only too true, and in a few weeks my limbs were simply useless through rheuma- tism. The joints of my fingers and toes became contracted, with an inflamed swelling in my joints. Every movement of my body caused me intense pain it seemed as if my sinews were being torn out. If I attempted to move hand or foot whilst lying down I suffered most excruciating agony, and often screamed out in pain. "For months I lay prostrate and helpless, my nerves unstrung, and unable to bear the least sound. My mother did all she could for me, giving me medicines and rubbing with embrocations, all without relief. My sufferings were so agonizing that death would have been welcome. Day by day I could feel myself growing weaker, and I had given up all hope, when a very good friend recommended Dr. Williams'Pink Pills for Pale People. I decided to give them a fair trial. I wasn't cured in a few weeks-my case was too bad for tha.t-bub' after taking a few boxes all after-effects of the influenza vanished. I felt my appetite improving, and I could take solid food without vomiting or any after- pangs. I thought this a good sign, and kept on with the pills. Surely enough, such an improvement followed that I could get up to breakfast. I persevered with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and the use of my limbs gradually came back until I became as strong and healthy as I had ever been. 44 When my friends heard that I had re- covered and was working again they were dumbfounded. But there I was at work, and there I have been every day since, which is a sufficient guarantee of the permanence of my cure. I still take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, and every dose seems to put new blood into my veins. I can undergo any work without fatigue; I have a splendid appetite, and enjoy meab. Truly Dr. Williams' Pink Pills 4 put me on my feet;' in fact, I owe my life to them." Thousands of cured men and women speak from experienco of benefits derived from Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People in cases of Anaemia, General Weakness, Indigestion, Eczema, Sciatica, Rheumatism, Pains in the Back, St. Vitus' Dance, Neuralgia, Nervous Disorders, and Paralysis. Sold by dealers, but always ask for the genuine pills (seven words A-S above); if in djubt send to the British Depot, 46, Holborn-viaduct, London, 2s. 9d. for one box, or for six 13s. 9d.

On baturday last one of the best matches that have been seen in Denbigh was played on the Graig Field, when Denbigh Town enter- tained Bangor in a friendly. The start was advertised to take place at 3 p.m., but owing to Bangor missing the connection, the match was delayed for an hour. A start was therefore made a few minutes to 4 o'clock. The teams lined out under the refereeship of Mr David Williams. Denbigh lost the toss, and kicked off before an excellent gate. It was at once seen that the sides were very evenly matched, and a very fast game resulted. Soon after the start, from a splendid run by the home quintet, Fred Davies scored, but after the ball had passed the goal-line by about half a yard the visiting right back handled the ball, and the referee awarded a penalty kick to the home side. The kick was taken by R Morris Evans, and sent rather high, and saved, at the expense of a corner, by the Bangor custodian. The referee should have awarded the goal the first time, and not give the homers a penalty, as they scored fairly. The corner kick availed nothing, and soon after the Bangorites ran up, Millward effecting a capital save. Soon after a corner NAA awarded Denbigh, and taken bv R M Evans, but sent behind From the goal kick the Bangor forwards had a run up the field, and after pobbing away at goal, which were saved capitally by the home defence, one of the Bangor forwards sent in a stringing shot, which Millward saved excellently after he had slipped and fallen in the goalmouth. From the goal kick Bangor ran up and pressed, and for some infringment by the home iuside right a penalty kick was awarded to Bangor, which was taken by one of their backs, and sent high over the bar, but he had kicked it before tne whistle was given, and therefore he had another pot at goal, Lhis time sending it into tbo corner of the net, giving Millward no chance to save. When centred, the homers rushed down, and, after passing the Bangor defence, when they had only the goalkeeper to beat, the ball being in the possession of Davies, j Price Jones took the ball from Davies' foot, and thus an excellent chance of scoring was missed. Denbigh again pressed, aid the Bangor goalkeeper saved and cleared. Half-time arrived with Bangor lead- ing by 1-0. On restarting. Dick Morris had some excellent runs, but was deliberately fouled several times by the Bangor left half. The referee, wno was sharp to notice anything against Denbigh, did not tee anythii.g against Bangor. Millward was soon afterwards called upon to save from a free kick, which was taken by a Bangor half, and then re-taken by the right back. The home forwards pressed, and soon Davies put in a shot which the Bangor custodian could hardly see, and therefore Denbigh's first and last goal was scored. From the centre Bangor pressed, but Dick Griffiths cleared. A free kick was awarded Denbigh, but nothing resulted. Denbigh were pressing very much for a short time, and were unlucky not to score. The ball was cleared, and posses- sion was gained by the Bangor centre, who raced down on his own, and Bob Tom missed his kick, with the result that the Bangor man beat Millward easily. Nothing much resulted up to time, and the light was very bad towards the end, and an exciting and fist game ended in a win for Bangor by 2 goals to 1. To-morrow (Saturday) the Denbigh Town Club play Greenfield in the first round of the North Wales Junior Cup. The kick off is fixed for 3 p.m. Admission 4d, children 2d. Referee, Mr Browne Jones, Rhyl. DENBIGH CHURCH GUILD v RHUDDLAN RESERVES. On Saturday last the Church Guild played a friendly match with Rhuddlan Reserves, who lost the toss and kicked off down the field, under the supervision of Mr J 0 Thomas. From the start the homesters proved to be the stronger team, and fairly monopolised the visitors' goal, beating them easily by 9 goals to nil, four of which J Tuckfield bad to his credit, J Parry Evans two, George Lewis (cap- tain) one, Fred Lloyd one, and W R Hughes one. To-morrow the Guild journey to Rhyl to play the Harlequins, with the same team as last Saturday. »_
HOW TO CURE A COUGH.
HOW TO CURE A COUGH. THE DANGERS OF COUGH MIXTURES. A cough is a sympton rather than an ailment. It may be anything from the peculiar cough of a child suffering from whooping cough to the hacking cough of the consumptive. If the cough is associated with pains and tightness about the chest, and much fever following upon exposure to cold, we may suspect pleurisy or pneumonia. Sudden difficulty in breathing in association with a cough may be evidence of asthma while long fits of coughing that are preceded by a 44 tickling in the throat," huskiness, and tightness in the region of the breast bone, indicate one of the worst forms of bronchitis. Bronchitis in a milder form gives the nasty irritating little cough that distracts attention in church and in a public meeting. There is little or no expectoration with this throat cough, but the harassing trouble con- tinues from week to week. It is easy to understand why so many cough mixtures fail to cure, when they are merely swallowed into the stomach-an organ that has no direct connection with the larynx and lungs. Obviously the only method of reaching the tissues which are the seat of the ordinary cough is by inhalation. The Peps treatment, consisting of a few Peps crushed in the mouth or merely dissolved on the tongue, and the rich pine fumes breathed into the system, affords most striking relief. Peps produce an agreeablegargle for the throat, and give rise to a most grateful, soothing sensation. They ease the throat, assist in expelling any irrita- ting substances or accumulation of mucus, and extend their healing influence to the furthest corner of the respiratory organs. A still worse feature of liquid cough mix- tures and bronchitis cures" than their failure to reach the actual tissues affected in lung trouble is the amount of opium and other dangerous narcotics they contain. Peps con- tain neither opium, chloral, or any other nerve- wrecking drug. Peps are equally free from the impurities which are present in medicated gums, and none of the irritative substances such as ammonia-compounds, tartar-emetic, cubebs, which occur in many cough cures and lozenges. The most delicate lady and the youngest child will find nothing M Peps repulsive either to palate or stomach. Peps are a "doctor in themselves, and no mother should fail to administer them to herself and her children upon the first sign of wheezing, sneezing, tightness about the chest, chill or nasty coughing. They bathe the throat and lungs in their soothing and healing influence destroy the infectious germs that are breathed in, and they promote health as no ordinary cough or cold medicine ever claims to de. Peps are equal to a Pine Forest in every lome." A box of Peps, daintily packed, may M had of all chemists and stores for Is lid, or post free for same price direct from the Peps Pastille Co., Carlton Hill, Leeds.

It is astonishing how little is understood of the causes and cure of headache. Liver out of order, stomach ditto, electric light too strong, some other light not strong enough, overwork —there are a few of the little fictions which people invent to IIccount for the headaches from which they suffer. Occasionally, someone having tried all the patent medicines in the market and visited a tew doctors, without any good result, thinks "I will have my eyes examined," and then finds that the last experi- ment is the one which he should have tried first. 90 per cent of headaches are caused by some uncorrected defect of the eyesfght, which can be absolutely cured by proper sepectaoles or eyeglasses.

j THE SIEGE OF LONDON.
THE SIEGE OF LONDON. From lr. William Le Queux's book, The Invasion of 1910, with a Eull Account of th? Siege of London," is taken this description of Londoners at the barricades- At the barricades was a quiet, calm enthu- siasm. Now that it was seen that the enemy had no immediate intention of storming the de- fences at the bridges, those manning them rested, smoked, and, though ever vigilant, dis- cussed tho situation. Beneath every bridge* I men of the Royal Engineers had effected cer- tain works which placed them in readiness for' instant destruction. The explosives were there, and only by the pressing of the button tho offi- cer in command of any bridge could blow it into tho air, or render it unsafe for the enemy to venture upon. The great League of Defenders was in course- of rapid formation. Its proclamations were upon every wall. When the time was ripe London would rise. The day of revenge was fast approaching. London, north of the Thames, though shat- tered and wrecked, began, by slow degrees, to grow more calm. Ono half of the populace seemed to have accepted the inevitable; the other half being- "till terrified and appalled at the havoc wrought on every hand. In the case of Paris, forty yoar^'ef°re, when the Germans had bombarded the City. their shells had done but little damage. In those days neither guns nor ammu- nition were at such perfection as they now were tho enemy's high-power explosives ac- counting for the fearful destruction caused. A T.v curious fact about the bombardmenfc ma>t here be noted. Londoners, though terri- r 11 -onr' measure when the shells began to fall among them and explode, grew, in the space of a couple of hours, to be quite callous, and seemed to regard the continuous flashes a.nd explosions with the same open-mouthed wonder as they would exhibit at the Crystal Palace on t. firework night.
WAR ON THE RED CROSS.
WAR ON THE RED CROSS. Here is a sensational extract from Mr. ITenry-, Nevinson's "Dawn of Russia": A doctor named Vorobieff, well known in Rus- sia as a man of science and a writer on medical discoveries, at the beginning of the bombard- ment of the workmen's quarter hung out an ambulance flag from his window to give notice to the wounded where they might obtain assistance. His landlord, knowing that the Red Cross flag would draw the fire of the Government troops, asked him to take it down, which he did; but he continued to attend to any wounded who came. Presently a party of police, under an officer named ErmolefT. who had formerly been an. officer of the Guards Cavalry, came to the house and accused the doctor of assisting revolutionists The doctor replied that he was not himself a re- volutionist: but he felt it to be his duty, as a surgeon, to give every possible help to the- wounded, no matter what their opinions might bo, Have you a revolver? Ermeloff suddenly asked him. Yes. but I have a Government licence for it." Go and fetch your licence." cried Ermeloff. As the doctor turned to go up- stairs. Ermeloff fired his pistol into the back of his head and blew out his brains. "Oh, what- have you done?" cried the dead doctor's wife, who had been standing by his side. Hold vour tonsrue. and wipe up that mess," answered the ex-officer of the Guards Cavalry, and with- drew his party. After the rising was suppressed. this officer was detained for a fortnight and then released. PURPOSE. Purpose is the secret of success. The clearly possible thing is always achieved when a man's will is set to do it. Even the thing that men call impossible is often done. by a determined pur- pose. But there must be a settled and steady will, not turned aside by passing temptations, if a man aims at high and noble goals. CHARACTER. Character is that stamp of individuality which marks off one man from another. It shews the peculiar bent and bias which dominate him in all the relations of his being. And therefore to bring out his character is to attempt some out- line. however slight, of these peculiarities, as they manifest themselves in the personal, social, and religious aspects of his nature. Now. as to personal charactor, the profoundest moralists find the perfection of it in the presence and predonr- nance of two leading features; firmness of will and flexibility of will; the unmoved consistency of conduct with conscience, and the ever-moving adaptation of a many-sided personality in ever- widening completeness to all the varying cir- cumstances of life.

WHY MEX FAIL. Few men come up to their highest measure of success. Some fail through timidity or lack of nerve. They are unwilling to take the risks- incidental to life, and fail through fear in ven- turing on ordinary duties. They lack pluck. Others fail through imprudence, lack of discre- tion, care. or sound judgment. They over- estimate the future, and build air-castles, and venture beyond their depth, and fail and fall. Others again fail through lack of application, and perseverance. They begin with good re- solves, but soon get tired of that. and want a. change, thinking they can do much better at something else. Thus til(1.v fritter life away, and succeod at nothing. Others waste time and money, and fail through ruinous habits; tobacco, whisky, and beer spoil them for busi- ness, drive their best customers from them, and ecatter tjieir prospects of success. Some fail fon want of brains, education, and fitness for their callIng; they lack a knowledge of human nature and the motives that actuate men. They have nor qualified themselves for their ocetipa., tion by practical education. WHAT CONSTITUTES SUCCESS?

" HOLY WILLIE'S " FATE.
HOLY WILLIE'S FATE. Many reader.4 of Burns's Holy Willie's- raver" may have supposed that rascally indi- vidual to have been an invention but that he was very real indeed we learn from the Autobio- graphy of lr. A. B. Todd, of Cumnock, pub- lished by Messrs. Oliphaut, Anderson, and Fer. ^ier, Edinburgh. Mr. Todd tells us that his father Holy Willie" well. His real name was "ham Fisher, and Burns's record of him was as true a picture of the man as any given in th« chronicles of Judah and Israel." Air. Todd pro- ceeds: Most people know that this canting, tip. pling creature was drowned in a ditch when go- ing home intoxicated from a Mauchline Fair in the year 1809. but few are now likely to know that my own father was one of those who got his body, entangled among thorns in a raging tor- rent. about two o'clock on the following morn- ing. his head down and his feet lip, and only seen with the water gushing over him, for there had been a great storm of wind and rain during the night. My father's farm was less than a milo from the place, and some of Fisher's family had :ome seeking him after midnight, and had roused my father to go in search of him. It is a curious fact that in the epitaph on Holy Willie Burns says of him: His soul has ,a'ell some ither way- I fear the leL-hand road.' and that Fisher actually, on his way home that night, took the left-hand side of a fence and ditch near to the farm of Meikle Auchinbrain. and so was drowned, for had he taken the right-hand and the proper side he would have been safe."
