THE NEW RECTOR. Cardiff's Appreciation of his Good Work. As briefly recorded in the last issue of the Free Press, the Rev A E H Hyslop, the new rector of Caerwys, has been the recipient of substantial tokens of the respect and esteem in which he is held by his old congregation of Dewi Sant, Cardiff. The presentation took place in the School- room attached to the Rector's former Church, where a crowded audience had assembled. Mr Evas Davies, who presided, said Mr Hyslop had devoted the best years of 'his life to their service, and worked atrenu- ously to bnild up the Welsh Church in Cardiff (applause), assisted by his good and devoted wife (hear, hear). Amongst others who spoke appreciatively were the Revs Griffith Thomas (Church Defence lecturer in South Wales), T E Phillips (vicar of Skewen), Henry Morgan (Newport), Thomas Davies (Pentyrch), and W Eilir Evans (till of whom ha~e been colleagues of Mr Hyslop), Dr Pritchard, Mr flagh Griffiths, and the Rev Mr Pugh (chapir.in of Cardiff Prison). An illuminated address (composed in Welsh) was presented to the labs vicar. The following is a translation :— Rev anii daar sir, We avail ourselves of the present ^occasion, on your d<^>arture from among «e for the ancient) vicariate of Caerwye, to present you with this address, and express our deep regret and best wishes that your appointment to your new sphere may be fruitful of blessing both to you and your devoted wife. We recall with gratitude the great work you have accomplished during your stay of twenty yeare among us, and the success and conspicu- ous blessing which have crowned y.)ur efforts in every respect. We call to mind in a very special way the important part you played in the establish- ment of the Welsh Church in Cardif., and your indefatigable eflorts in the face of immense difficulties in providing Eglwys Dewi Sane, free of all encumbrance, in order to have it, consecrated for the service of the Welsh people. The church and the buildings connected with it, which were erected at an expenditure of £ B,QG0, will ever remain a monument of your faithful and patriotic labours on behalf of God's cause and the Welsh people. We keep in memory with mixed feelings of sorrow and py your faithful ministrations in the sanctuary, your powerful and effecti ve. sermons, your careful offices as pastor, your kindness and courtesy to all, your consietenb, Christian conduct, and your useful and faith- ful counsel and advice, and we thank the God of all grace that you were spared to us for so many years, an example of a good servant of Jesus Christ a'd a rule and guide in all Christian conduct. We admit your wisdom in your choice of colleagues from time to time: they have been men woo, under your guidance, have been the means, ill conjunction with yourself, of pro- moting tt^e cause among us and rendering Etrlwys I), wi Sant a centre of blessing and influence anvrng our fellow-countrymen. We are indebted to you for a ministry which was thoroughly loyal to the Church—a ministry which reflected so fully the letter and spirit of the Prayer Book, and rejoice in the fact that Eglwys Dewi Sant is one of the few places where a daily service is held in the old tongue, and where the ecclesiastical year is observed without a break. No church has ever been blessed with a ministry which has heen more full and con- sistent than Dewi Sant, where, at the font and the altar, we have a right use of the sacra- ments, and in the pulpit the Word of Truth rightly divided. It is a source of pleasure to us that the cause at Dewi Sant is so flourishing and is not en- cumbered by any financial burden, and for this we are indebted chiefly to your wise and care- ful leadership. During your career in Cardiff you have taken a leading part in the Welsh side of the public life of the city, and as a guardian of the poor for years you have won for yourself an excel- lent name. Ir. presenting to you this address we desire to make to you and Mrs Hyslop some slight re- cognition of your life and labour-an offering of love from your friends and admirers in and outside Dewi Sant. The gifts are but a slight token of our affection towords you, as well as om- deep indebtedness to you and Mrs Hyslop. On behalf of Eglwys Dewi Sant, A LL ACRAMAN, WILLIAM DAVIES, D V EVANS, EDWARD EVANS, JOHN GRIFFITHS, HCCH GRIFFITHS, JOHN HOWELLS, JOHN LEWIS JENKINS, W G PHILLIPS, D PRICE MORGAN, JOHN AARON, Chairman, JOHN WILLIAMS, Treasurer, • ssrais}"——■ Mr John Williams (churchwarden) pre- sented the address Mr John Aaron (churchwarden) a pair of solid silver candelabra Mrs Aaron a silver-mounted dressing-case for MM Hyslop and this was followed by the presentation of a purse of gold, Mrs John Williams performing the ceremony. The Rev D Price Morgan handed to Mr Hyslop a. framed photograph of the children of Dewi Sant, subscribed for by the children themselves. The Rev A E H Hyfllop, in a feeling reply, spoke with gratitedd of the energy and self-denial shown by the worshippers in promoting his Church feailding schemes in this district.

STARTLED into St. Vitus' Dance. 1 This Nervous Girl suffered Tortures until her Nerves were strengthened by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Miss EMILY WILLIAMS, cured of St. Vitus' Dance- by Dr. Williams' Pink <PiZJfc The effect of a shock upon a nerv- ous system already weakened may de- velop with most evil results; this is illustrated clearly in the account given by a young woman residing nearWrex- ham. The victim of a fright, Sb. Vitus' Dance de- veloped to such a degree that her life was despaired of; how her nervous system was strongly fortified by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and a cure effected is here re- printed in her own words:— I Two years ago," said Miss EMILY WILLIAMS, of Brymterion, Brynissa Road, Brynteg, Wrexham, while I was in the garden a hen flew at me, the attack being so sudden that I was quriie startled and frightened. After going indoors my limbs shook violently and I fell into hysterics. "From that time onwards I felt so nervous and excitable that every noise made me jump and tremble. My bends were too shaky for me to convey food to my mouth, and I could not remain still for more than a few seconds. Then fits of trembling came over me so violent that a doctor ordered me to bed a few days later such convulsive movements of St. Vitus' Dance seized my limbs that 1 had to be strapped down. The jerkings in my limbs continued for some months and [ became almost as helpless as a baby. I could take little solid food, for my stomach was too weak to digest it and I was so nervous thac I could not bear to be left alone. Apart frem the awful pains that racked my head and body:1 was wretchedly weak; try as I would to keep my jerking limbs still I could not; violent twitchings ran all over my body, my head shook and the muscles of my face would contract causing hideous grimaces. One day a lady called and drew my mother's attention to a case like mine that had been cared by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. She persuaded us .,tr, try them. I began to take these' pills, and in time the effect was almost magical. Not at once, but steadily, an im- provement in my health was noticed. I could pick up a cup without dropping it, and after three or f jar boxes my appetite improved and I was able to enjoy light meals. As my cure progressed, I became aware of a gradual strengthening of my whole body, and we were all overjoyed to find that my convulsive move- ments were disappearing. So my health improved until Dr. Williams' Pink Pills bad positively cursd me of St. Vitus' Dance. I am now nineteen, ar!d have never had a relapse." AXB THOUSANDS SAY SO. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills enrich weak blood and so feed the exhausted nerves; they are invaluble for both sexes, and have cured Anaemia, Indigestion, Rheumatism, Sciatica, Neuralgia, Locomotor Ataxy, Paralysis, Nervous Disorders, and Ladies' Ailments. Only the genuine pills cure, those always bear- ing the full name (seven words), Dr. Williams' Pink Pille for Pale People.

Oenbighshire Education. COMMITTEE'S GRANT TO DENBIGH GIRLS. A meeting of the Denbighshire Educa- tion Committee was held at Chester on Friday, Mr W G Dodd presiding. Three applicants for the head teacher- ship of the ;Ehos Junior Council School came before the Committee. Miss Gee,' advocating the appointment of Mr E F Williams, now of Leeds and formerly of { Llanberis, said he appeared to have the; bebt credentials, and, furthermore, he was. a capable Welshman and teacher of Welsh., Mr Williams was appointed. The Finance Committee recommended that the rate for elementary education for the current year should be lid in the pound, and for intermediate education td in the pound. The recommendation will be considered at a special meeting. After a long debate it was decided to pay to the .coasiy architect, Mr Wiles, an honorarium of JS100 in consideration of extra work he bad done in connection with the .schools in single-school areas which are now being erected. It was explained by the Chairman that plans were prepared for 13 schools in respect of which grants were applied for, and all the work bad to be done in the course of two or three months, necessitating extra expenditure and mucii ovartitie on the part of the surveyor and his staff. The result of Mi Wiles's work was that grants were made to the eocuty amounting to close epon £10,000. In connection with the abolition of the pupil teacher system and the substitution of bursarsbips it was decided to oCer twelve scholarship?, in addition to those offered by the governors of the various county schools to assist children of poor parents desirme,of becoming teachers. Mr D S Davies moved that the Com- mittee contribute to vfche Denbigh School governors £ 200 for tike provision of the means of intermediate education for girls ia the Denbigh school district in the current year.—The -Chairman asked that the matter should not be rushed, aa he did net know the effect their decision might hatfO upon the Howell's School question.— Mr John Roberts replied that they were merely doing for Denbigh girls what had beeæ done for Ruthim boys.—The pro- position was carried.

NORTH WALES ASYLUM. Chairman Re-Elected at < Annual Meeting. A Decrease in the Patients. The annual meeting of Visitors to the North Wales Counties Lunatic Asylum was held at Denbigh on Monday, when the contributing counties were represented as follow :—Flintshire, Messrs P P Pennant (retiring chairman), W Elwy Williams, W Davies, and J T Morgan Denbighshire, Dr D Lloyd, Messrs J A Cnadwick, A 0 Evans, J Roberts, and J M Porter; Anglesey, Dr E P Edwards, Messrs H Clegg, T Williams, and W D Jones; Carnarvonshire, Messrs J Jones Morris, J R Hughes, and T W Griffith and repre- senting the subscribers, Messrs R E Hughes, P E Story, W Parry, and E A Foulkes, with the clerk (Mr W Barker). An apology for absence was received from Mr T Roberts (Aber). ELECTION OF CHAIRMAN. « Dr E P Edwards (Anglesey) had very great pleasure in proposing that Mr P P Pennant take the chair for the ensuing year. Mr J R Hughes (Carnarvon), in second- ing, said it would be impossible to find anyone who would fill the chair better than, or he was afraid as well as, Mr Pennant had done. He trusted he would have good health to be with them for many years to come (applause). The resolution was carried unanimously. Mr P P Pennant, on taking the chair, thanked the meeting very sincerely for once more-he believed it was the 19th time—electing him to the honour of pre- siding over their proceedings. He thanked them particularly for the very graceful way in which they had honoured him on this occasion. It was a plasure to provide over a body of men who supported their chairman in the way he bad always found them to do (bear, hear). They might depend upon it he would do his very best, and he trusted that would be satisfactory, having regard to the fact that he would be loyally supported by everyone present (hear, hear). OTHER ELECTIONS. On the motion of Dr E P Edwards, seconded by Mr A 0 Evans, Mr Wm Barker was unanimously re-elected Clerk to the Visitors. The whole of the Visitors were elected members of the House andl Building Committee. Messrs R E Hughes (Denbigh) and T W Grriff ths (Llandudno) were re-elected honorary auditors, and were thanked for their services during the past year.. A vote of sympathy was passed with Dr Roger Eughes, Bala (a member of the I Committee), in his illness. PATIENTS ON THE BOOKE The number of patients on the books of the Asylum was stated to be 872, against 880 on the corresponding day of last year. Out of this number there were t63 private and ODE pauper patients. The pauper patients are apportioned be- tween the counties a a follows :—Denbigh 226, under quota 4 Flint 165, over quota 23 Anglesey 104, over quota 16 Car- narvon 2x3, over quota 3 Meirioneth 90, over quota 5. Total over quota 47, under quota fTWO COUNTIES IN; ABE EARS. Mr T W Griffiths submitted a state- ment regarding the balances in hand of the treasurer which were as follow :—Main- tenance account, .66553 4 8(1:; enlarge- ment account, X4094 4s 8dwater supply, X2 Mr Griffiths added that a sum of £ 2385 6s 8d was due to the en- largement account from two counties, which were in arrear to that extent, and it would be well if the representatives of the counties in question would see to the mat- ter with the view of having the arrears paid forthwith (hear, hear). el Mr J M Porter Will you gike out the names ? (" No, no.") INCREASED COST OF MAINTMANCE. The abstract of accounts submitted for adoption showed that the average weekly a 0 cest of maintenance per head during the year was 6s llkd, as against £ s 4|d for ket year. Mr T W Griffith explained that the increase was chiefly due to the increased cost of flour, butter, tea, sugar, and other commodities, especially coal. Mr John Roberts It is a Radical Government, you see (laughter). Mr Griffiths, continuing, said that com- pared with other asylums throughout the country, however, the cost per head at Denbigh appeared very favourable, viz 8s lid, against the general average of 10s Id (heai;, hear). Mr P E Story I think it should go forth that we feed our patients with the best butter, tnd on the best meat that can be purchased in the Vale of CIwyd dis- trict, and not with foreign stuffs (hear, hear). Mr W D Jenes No German goods. Mr J R Hughes I suppose that is the reason the patients remain here so long (laughter). VISITORS ANNUAL REPORT. > The Committee of Visitors in their 59th annual report stated that between April 1st, 1907, and March 31st, 1908, there had been 16 private patients admitted and 13 discharged, seven having died; 157 pauper patients had been admitted, 87 dis- charged, and 63 had died. A comparative table of residents showed that the greatest number of male pauper patients who had beea in the asylum at any time during the year was 435, and the smallest number 422 females, largest number 899, and smallest 384. The total daily average of pauper patients was 821, or 14 more than in the preceding year. The two last blocks of the enlargement scheme had been com- pleted by the contractors and would be occupied forthwith by patients. The com- pletion of these works which had given the committee several anxious and laborious years would, it was hoped, afford the Visitors as well as the County Council a short period of rest. The number of private patients had increased considerably of late, and the accommodation for them required re-arrangement. MEDICAL SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT. The annual report of the Medical Super- intendent (Dr Cox) stated that the number of admissions for 1907 was 170, viz., 78 males and 92 females. As compared with 1906 there was a total decrease of 47, viz., k 38 males and nine females. Tut re- admissioos were 28, composed of 13 n>ales and 15 females, all of the pauper class. The total number of patients in the asylum on the 31st December 1907, was 870, com- prising 458 males and 422 females, of whom 58 were of the private and two of the criminal class. As compared with the preceding year there bad been a deorease of aeven at the end of the year. The average number resident throughont the year was 884, an increase of 24. The total number under treatment Ust year was 1,047, composed of 541 males and 506 females, being a decrease ot 19 males. In reference to the causes of insanity among the admissions, Dr Cox noted that hereditary predisposition and previous attacks bad been as usual the uiosc im- portant factors in the production of mental disease, while the general character of the other moral and physical agencies cor- responded with those of former years. As regards inherited insanity, a proportion of 26 per cent of the male and 35 per eent of the female eases were attributed to this source. Intemperance, either as an ex- citing or predisposing cause, could be traced to four males, or 5 per cent; mental impairment consequent upon epilepsy affected 14 males and one female, or in the ratio of 6 per cent. In addition to these causes mental disorder and nervons in- stability was connected with senile degeneration, nervous and physical prostra- tion, influenza, and other enervating maladies. The percentage of recoveries was 44'30, compared with 33*66 for the preceding year—a marked increase, particularly among the female sex, with a record of 52'36 per cent. The ratio for both sexes in other asylums was 36*68. The mortality statistics showed that the per- centage of deaths in the total number under treatment was 6'87, as against 7 80 for 1906, The ratio per cent in the daily number resident was 814, a reduction of 1'51, while the death-rate in other asylums was 10*11. The report also stated that there had been six escapes during the year, five men and one woman, but none of the oases called for special notice. Dr Cox, concluding his report, referred to the presentation recently made to Mr P P Pennant, and said the cordial apprecia- tion of the Committee-of his services was felt if anything, in a more intimate degree by the officers of the Asylum who had been and were under grateful obligations to Mr Pennant for his kindly courtesy and con- sideration as well as experienced counsel extended them for the many years they had had the privilege of serving under him. The Medical Superintendent also thanked his colleagues, Drs Herbert and Jones, and Mr Barker for their experienced and valuable services. Mr J R Hughes commented on the im- provements in the rates of mortality to recovery, and said the facts divulged would be of v&ry great interest to the counties (hear, hear). The figures were encouraging and showed that the medical men and the staff generally were doing their work in the best possible manner (bear, hear). Mr Wi liam Parry And its a tribute to the healthiness of the district (l* No, uo "). Mr A 0 Evans Oh yes. 1 's the advan- tage of having tue Asylum in Denbigh. The report was adopted. A QUESTION OF GRATUITY. Replies were received from all the County Councils except Anglesey, respect- ing a gratuity of £ 75, voted by the visitors to Mr Thomas Roberts, late attendant at the Asylum, since deceased. Mr J Jones Morris said he failed to see why the Clerk of the Anglesey County Council should think himself superior to the other clerks, and not attend to his correspondence. He should at once be requested to attend to the matter (hear, bear). Mr-J R Hughes moved that the attention of the Anglesey Council be called to the matter. Mr H Clegg (Anglesey): I think this money ought to be paid, and if Anglesey won't do it, I shall (hear, hear). Mr Thomas Williams (Llanerchymedd) said that after the remarks made, he did not think it became necessary to pass a special resolution. Mr-J R Hughes Then I withdraw it; at the same time I thought something drastic ought to have been done. We have no end of trouble with this gentleman, although he is (paid for his work like all other County Council clerks. It was then agreed to pay the gratuity, subject to the approval of all the County Councils. VISITORS. ATTENDANCE RECORD. The attendance record for the year was submitted.
