EXTRAORDINARY SUCCESS IN THE TREAT- MENT OF OBESITY. Our corpulent readers will be glad to learn how to positively lose two stone in about a month, with the greatest possible benefit in health, strength, and muscle, by a comparatively new system. It is a singular paradox that the patient, returning quickly to a healthy state, with increased activity of brain, digestive and other organs, naturally requires more food than hitherto, yet, notwithstanding this, he absolutely loses in weight one or two pounds daily, as the weighing machine will prove. Thus there is no suggestion of starvation. It is an undoubted success, and the author, who has devoted years of study to the subject, guarantees a noticeable reduc- tion within twenty-four hours of commencing the treatment. This is different with other diseases, for the patient, in some cases, may go for weeks without being able to test whether the physician has rightly treated him, and may have derived no real or apparent improvement in health. Here, we repeat, the author guarantees it in twenty-four hours, the scale to be the unerring recorder. The treatment aims at the actual root of obesity, to that the superfluous fat does not return when dis- continuing the treatment. It is perfectly harmless. We advise our readers to call the attention of stout friends to this because, sincerely, we think they ought to know. For their information we may say that on sending four penny stamps, a book entitled Corpulency and the Cure (256 pages), containing a reprint of Press notices from some hundreds of medical and other journals—British and foreign— and other interesting particulars includiug, the book and other interesting particulars includiug, the book containing the "recipes," can be had post free from a Mr. C.

TOWN COUNCIL. TUESDAY. Present J. Marshall Dugdale, Esq., Mayor, Aldermen C. R. Jones, Ellis Roberts, and John Jones, Councillors Roger Edwards, Edw. Roberts, Evan Watkins, John Rvle, William Jones, David Parry, WL-i. Ellis, and John Ellis. Alderman JOHN JONES asked to be permitted to say a few words at the commencement of the proceedings. It would be very ungracious if he were to allow that opportunity to pass without ex- pressing his sincere thanks to the Council for the honour conferred on him at the last meeting by electing him alderman. On Ii" inomui t jir. C. 3i. J ONES, seconded by Dr. EDWARDS, Mr. J. Marshall Dugdale was re- appointed Governor of Bangor University College. FINANCE COMMITTEE'S REPORT. TOWN HALL IMPROVEMENT. The committee reported that they had considered Mr. Ward's proposals for the propping of the Town Hall, and recommended that the same be carried out at a cost not to exceed JE13, to be paid out of the borough fund. With regard to the extension of the Hall, the committee recommended that the ic-ost should be defrayed firstly by the fund in hand, being the surplus from the Powis Provincial Eis- teddfod, and the remainder bv means of a loan. With regard to the details of the proposed altera- tions, the Committee desired to further confer with Mr. Ward. The portion of the report referring to the propjniij? of t),(> Town H:dl was approved, and the other portion adjourned. SHEEP FAIR. The committee recommended that the sheep •market place be paved from the Conservative Club ,steps to the end of the retaining' wall, and that the ,.Surveyor be instructed to ascertain the cost of carrying out such work with setts, or jacks, or river stone. The committee also recommended that new sheep hurdles be procured or sockets pro- vided for the old ones. The Surveyor was directed :to lay the necessary information before the next meeting. STONES FOR MAIN" ROADS. After some discussion it was resolved to ask the 'County Surveyor for an estimate of the cost ef •carrying out his suggesstion with respect to Green- hall Quarry. j THE FOOTPATHS. A letter was read from Mr. Owen, Knockin, re- garding the pavement in front of Cambrian Terrace. The SURVEYOR stated that the pavement was in a dangerous state. Mr. C. R. JONES moved that Mr. Owen be asked to repair the same. This was seconded by Mr. EDWARD ROBERTS, ,and carried. EXTENSION OF BROOK ABEL CULVERT. Resolved that the Clerk should open negotiations for the loan of zC76 for carrying out this work. SANITATION. Mr. THOMAS JONES, Ketch, the contractor for the removal of the night soil of the borough, gave a month's notice of the termination of his contract, he being unable to comply with the requirements of the Borough Surveyor as to the place at which the soil should be deposited. Dr. EDWARDS thought that was a very oppor- tune time to take into consideration what might be done to improve the sanitation of the town. Could they not as a town go a little ahead in sanitary matters ? The present system of removing the night soil was a great nuisance. The stench at times was something fearful. Besides, suppose an epidemic was to break out in the town ? The refuse was put into the night cart and carried through the streets. If the effluvia got in through lIotne windows which might chance to be open, it would be enough to propagate the disease to a serious extent. He proposed that a committee be appointed to take the whole question into con- sideration, and report to the Council. Mr. EVAN WATKINS seconded, and it w ..) carried. The SURVEYOR was empowered to make tem- porary arrangements as to the depositing of the night soil until the question was considered by the Council. LOCAL GOVERNMENT ACT, 1894. In reply to Mr. C. R. Jones, The CLERK said no repl) had yet been received from the Local Government Board to the applica- tion of the Town Council for the powers of a Parish Council. THE RECENT FLOOD. Mr. WILLIAM JONES gave notice, in view of the recent flood, that the street workmen should be resident in the town. At present the workmen lived a mile or more out of the town, which, in cases of emergency, was too far. The Surveyor was directed to employ all men he cieemed necessary should an emergency like the last occur. Mr. WILLIAM JONES, in calling further attention to the flood, expressed the opinion that ^he flood in Bridge-street was caused by Mr. Dugdale's weir, which backed the water. The yeir had some time baok been raised about nine inches, and he suggested that it should be lowered <*> its former height, or that a new flood-gate be niade. It was a very serious matter to the people who lived in the bottom of Bridge-street. Mr. WATKINS considered it a matter of the jpeatest importance that the real cause of the back water should be found, and with that view h. proposed that a committee be formed to investi- gate, and report on the matter to the Council. oft j, JGHN JONES said there was no doubt it I there was no weir there would be no floods. He sym- Pathised very much with the people whosuffered from he floods. It was not so much that while it lasted they were obliged to retreat to the upper rooms, but their houses were damp for some time after- ards. If it was a matter of removing the weir, It was simply a matter of compensation to the °Wner, and he thought if it were done, it was but J1ght that the owner should be compensated. It as worth considering whether in the public Interest it would not be wise to borrow money in order to compensate the owner, and thus for ever Prevent the recurrence of these floods. The proposal that a committee should report On the subject was agreed to. The MAYOR said he rejoiced that that resolution ad been passed, for no one felt more sorry for hose who suffered from those floods than he did. e denied that the weir had been raised nine nches, and said he had made a flood-gate a few ago, which was twice as large as the old one. ney could see that the last flood had affected the Country in all parts. He hoped, however, the would devise some means by which this great nuisance could be prevented, for he felt very "°rry for the poor who suffered so mueh when these °ods came (hear, hear.)

NEWTOWN AND LLANIDLOES BOARD OF GUARDIANS. WEDNFSDAY. Present: Capt. Adams (in the chair), Mr. R. Bennett (vice-chairman), Messrs. C. Morgan, Rd. iryce, J. Lewis, William Jones, John Thomas, D. lyggs, E. Powell, M. H. Davies, J. R. Pryce, S. Meddins, William Gittins, David Jones, John Thomas, Edward George, Evan Jones, and John Lloyd, with Mr. Richard Williams (clerk), and Mr. Cecil Taylor (assistant clerk). THE WORKHOUSE. The numbers in the bouse were reported by the master (Mr. Breese), as follows: 63; tramps re- lieved 151; corresponding period last year 142 out- relief administered Newtown district (per Mr. J't. Lloyd), £ 63 10s 6d to 244 recipients; Llanwnog district (per Mr. James Hamer), £ 42 7s Llan- idloes district (per Mr. Richard Owen), £78 18s to 342 persons. The committee appointed to consider the case of two children named Pierce, of Newtown, reported that they found them well cared for, but were not strong mentally, especially in the case of the youngest. letter, gave it as hig opinion sendint th h-n Guardians would be justified in themJ T? to an institution suitable to to askThr, I* committee came to the conclusion thev won H t0 plRCe them in a home *^re Dro ,.rTi aV(;C,Very °PP°^unity of receiving p opcr treatment both as to good and niediml nothing Wt observed that he was certain that nothing better could be done for those children than to sent them to some home for a number of years^ and he appealed them whether they would not prevent these children epending their days in unutterable darkness. They could easily see from the report that the children were well cared for, and that there was the greatest hope of their development physically and mentally. He had never greater pleasure than he had in trying-to do justice to children, and if they resolved to re- move them it would prove a step that the Board were justified in taking. The question had received careful consideration from Mr. Bennett and also Mr. Lewis. Although the subscription might be considered rather heavy they would be perle"t,ly justified in spending it in-providing these children with a start from darkness into light (hear, hear). He therefore moyfed chat the report be adopted. A MEMBER enquired what would be the probable cost. Ihe CLERK replied that it would he about 24s. a week, but they would dedwct 14s. a week to the mother. Mr. LEWIS remarked that he did not altogether agree with the report of the committee. He had thiir oK re6n e„chi'dren- and wae satisfied with their cleanliness. He desired the Board to eive the matter serious consideration and not to act ha.nl). or harshly. He .touted verjluoh whethS me7"?" w™O|TR°LD'?0V?OPE rate it would be quite time enough twelve months hence to see whether she would be fit for such a home as was suggested. He objected to it at present on the score of expenditure TT of £ 300 for five jcr. or teT^'t-Te nrnmenance of two child,-on, which might OT might not develope. It was a large sum to he spent from the ratepayers' pockets. He suggested had better wait for twelve mooth^o "etthVth/r there would be any improvement in the second child. He considered that the eldest girl could ™ to the Board School, and he did nofsee llf, difference it would make for them, whether thev were taught at the Board School at Newtown or at a home. Mr. MORGAN, in reply, contended that he never intended that children should be in a home for ten or twenty years. He considered that six months would be a sufficient period to gee whether they made any improvement or not. Mr. LEWIS observed that he felt sure the chil dren would not show any development for the next six months. He did not see his way to spend the ratepayers, money in that lavish way. Mr. LLOYD mentioned that they would not cost zE40 a year. He would do all he could for the children if there was a chance of their develop ment, but it appeared very doubtful. He moved an amendment that the matter be adjourned nine die. This was seconded by Mr. D. Higgs. Mr. JOHN LLOYD having seconded the original motion, The CHAIRMAN expressed himself in favour of forwarding the interests of every child in life ae much as possible. The amendment on being put to the meeting was carried. THE NATIONAL SCHOOL, LLANWNOG. A letter was read by the CLERK from Mr. Evan Jones, of Henblas, Llanwnog, requesting the Bobrd to pay a voluntary rate of L2 7s towards the main- tenance of the National School in that parish. Mr. LEWIS observed that he was in favour of a voluntary rate if it would prevent a School Board. He was prepared to support it if they would term it a donation instead of a rate. Mr. HIGGS having seconded tke m«tion, it was agreed to. —

A large rabbit-shoot has taken place at Cross- wood, near Aberystwyth, when 2,500 couples were killed. Among the party were Lords Amhurst, Deerburst, and Garioch, and the Earl of Lisburue. The first steel steamer built for the firm of Scott Brothers (Newcastle-on-Tyne) was named the Edward Williams," after a Merthyr boy, the son of Taliesin Williams and the grandson of lolo Morganwg." At that time steel-plates were selling at X15 per ton. They are now to be had for £ 6. Mr. Lloyd-George has moments when he is not a firebrand. Not long ago a Tory meeting to ex plain the Parish Councils Act, was held in the heart of the North Wales hills, and, in anticipation of a somewhat lively time, the member for Car- nal von attended. He occupied a position at the back of the room, listened to a well-known Tory, and then to a Tory agent, and was amazed to find that these men talked nothing with which he could not agree. Mr. George was seen, and was asked to bhe platform. He did so, and, in a manner, he who liad come to curse remained to bless. Special sermons on temperance were preached cn Sunday at most of the Nonconformist places of worship throughout North Wales, and collections in aid of the funds of the various tempsrance associa- tions, were made. On Monday evening Mr. A. Dyson, the Mayor of Flint, was presented with his portrait in oils, in recognition of his public services to the borough. Mrs. Dyson, on the same occasion, was the recipient of a silver tea service. A correspondent states :-The Conservatives of Nevin have sent an invitation to Mr. H. J. Ellis- Nanney, Gwynfryn, Criccieth, to contest the Car- narvon Boroughs at the next election in the Unionist interest and in opposition to Mr. D. Lloyd-George, M.P. Mr. Nannev's reply is anxiously awaited. Lord Stalybridge and a number of the officials of the London & North-Western Railway Company on Tuesday inspected the new works which have re- cently been completed on the Anglesey Central section. It was thought at one time that the visit had something to do with the recent complaints of inonoglot Welshmen being dismissed from the ser- vice ot the Company, but there seems to have been tio foundation for the suggestion. Rev. Rowland Williams, who succeeds "Clwyd- fardd as Archdruid of Wales, was for many years the pastor of the Welsh Congregational Church in Fetter Lane, London. His bardic title is Hwfa mon." Mr. Lewis Morris, in a letter to a correspondent, states his views upon the proposed alteration of the rule relating to compositions for the "chair" prize at the National Eisteddfod, and in reference to the Gorsedd ex- presses a hope that the old ceremonies may not be allowed to fall into disuse. It will be seen that the j Committee of the Llandudno National Eisteddfod decided on Monday evening to introduce further changes. A resolution expressing strong disapproval of the action of the London and North-Western Railway Company in dismissing Welsh workmen on the alleged ground of their inability to speak the English language was passed at a meeting of the 11 9 Ruthin Town Council on Tuesday, and copies were ordered to be Rent to the Chairman of the Company oTD^hhmemberS ^°r t'1° county a,lfl boroughs There are rumours again afloat concerning the formation of a Hew Roman Catholic diocese, to con- sist of the Principality of Wales. Such a step has been in contemplation for some time. It is said that Cardinal Vaughan takes considerable interest in the progress of the Catholic faith in his native land, and is understood to favour the proiect re i tfisnop or Te' the scheme. At present Wales forms" two dioceses. There is every probability that the Bishop of Wale&, if appointed at all, will be a Welshman. The name of Father Jones, of Car- narvon, a native of Bala, is being associated with the new see, but it is premature yet to mention names. Father Jones is the only Catholic priest in the Principality, and the only one able to oreach in YVelsh in the world. prtaon A collier from Swansea recently called at a music-seller's and asked What price is that pianner ? He was told zC50 cash. is she a good one ? Oh, yes-one of the best." All right I'll have hor." It was sent borac. About a month afterwards (says the Swansea Pout) the purchaser called again at the shop—to buy" one of them books to show Marget Jane how to play it." He then addressed the music-seller you, that wass very good pianner, but you won't knowed it a bit if you will saw it now 'tis looking beautiful." What have you done to it ? asked the shopkeeper. Oh, 'tis my old woman have paint it all yellar with enamel to match the chest o' drawers." The Welsh students at the University of Glass- and the Welsh residents in the city on Saturd^ gave Professor Henry Jones a YVelsh reception on his elevation to the chair of Moral Philosool at Glasgow University. There was a large atteiT dance, and the proceedings, which are reported to have been of an enthusiastic character, were presided over by Rev. T. Eynon Davies. rG A case which illustrates the good work which being done by the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children came before the Rhyl Bench of magistrates on Monday. Walter Wynne, a joiner, was charged with ill-treating and neglecting his daughter, aged 13. The evidence showed that the defendant came home drunk and called for the little girl, who was asleep in another room. When she went to him he bit her brutally in the face and in the side. She ran downstairs, but hearing the defendant coming down after her she went, in an almost naked condition, into the street The door was locked behind her, and the person who locked it told her to, go to the devil." After remaining in the cold for about half an hour, the child climbed through a back window and crept upstairs to bed. For all this brutality the defendant was fined one guinea, including costs Wynne was subsequently charged with neglecting his family, and was further fined 7s 6d and 18s 6d costs.—On' the application of Mr. Gamlin, the licence of the Wynnstay Hotel was transferred from Mr Clough to Mr. C. Lilley. gh Mr. T. E. Ellis, M.P., speaking at Carmarthen on Tuesday ni^ht, referred with satisfaction to the movement which was seen on all sides for the nationall expansion and unity of Wales. In refer- ence to the Welsh Land Commission, he expressed a confident belief that the report of the Commis- sioners would farm a far-reaching and comprehen- sive document of agrarian and social reform and that important legislative and executive action must inevitably follow its publication.

RUPTURE TRUSSES.-— Referring RR, N nmde b7 correspondent recent^ L of 1894, will be interesting:—" The Link- T Co., 171 YVardour Street, London, YV., have a new tiuss. It is claimed that by this method of manu- facture a truss is provided which will be more comfortable than the one in ordinary use, and better able to adapt itself to the various movements of the body, especially if these are of a sudden character. The truss is fitted with a hip-joint regulater, by means of which the pressure is increased or diminished as required, and with a soft shell pad, perforated for ventilation. The truss as thus completed is an efficient one. Full particulars are sent free by the Link Shell Truss Co.—Glasgow Evening News, August 7, 1894.

Visitors, both J and yolt.ng, to that popular summer resort, the Zoological Gardens, will learn with regret, on the authority of the Spectator, that the older white Polar bear, which has dwelt 1 for more than a quarter of a century in the Regent's Park, is dying. For the last fortnight he has wasted rapidly, and refttsed food, though we are assurred that he seems to feel no pain, but lies all day extended upon the ground. A Sheerness correspondent telegraphs that con- siderable excitement has been caused there by the falling of a shot from a heavy gnn at Grain Fort into a garden attached to a local photographic studio. The shot buried itself in the ground without doing any damage except to a tree. It was fortunate, however, that there were no personal injuries, as the inissile passed over the public recreation ground and within two inches of the studio, where several persons were working. Fire broke out early on Monday morning on the premises of Messrs. Bowers, wholesale grocers, chemists, and druggists, Eastgate Street Chester. It originated man extensive warehouse at the back, and before it could be extinguished the warehouse and some of the adjacent premises were gutted, the damage being heavy. To complicate matters, the Earl of Chester's Fire Brigade was weakened, one engine having been called to a country fire earlier in the previous evening. At a meeting of the Staffordshire Chamber of I Agriculture on Saturday, a resolution waS adopted in favour of the construction of light railways for the transit of agricultural produce. At Liverpool on Saturday, Henry Watson was sentenced by Mr. Justice Wills to seven years' penal servitude. The prisoner watched a schoolgirl cash a cheque for £6 5s at the Oldham branch of the Manchester and County Bank, managed by a plausible story to get the money, and decamped. M". Henry Chaplin, M.P., speaking to his consti- tuents at Navenby, near Lincoln, on Saturday, said the outcry against the House of Lords was only another dodge for the purpose of carrin- Honle Rule. Lord Rosebery had no substitute for the House of Lords, and a statesman who could tamper so heedlessly with the Constitution was little less than a traitor to it. MAt Edinburgh on Saturday, Allan Walter John Fergusson, aged 16, the son of Sir James Fergusson, M.P., was sentenced to a year's imprisonment for wilfully setting iire to Glenalmond College Perth, of which he was a pupil. A plea was made on the youth's behalf that he was in a state of arrested mental capacity. At a conference in London on Monday, convened by the Women's Trade Union Association, and pre- sided over successively by Sir John Hutton, Canon Scot>Holland, and Mr. Haldane, Q.C., M.P it was resolved to form a Council to organise special and sympathetic inquiry into the condition of working women, to provide accurate information concerning their interests and to promote such action as mav seem conducive to their improvement." It was decided that the action of the Council should be carried on, upon non-party and non-sectariau lines. Amongst the committees appointed, was one which is to take an active part in the election of women to various public bodies." Mr. Haldane said he believed that sooner or later men would be brought face to face with the question of extending the franchise to women, on account of the indirect effect which such a measure would have on their industrial position. At the Sheriff's Court in Liverpool on Monday, Mr. F. H. Mellor, barrister, and a jury sat to assess i y damages in an Ormskirk breach of promise case. The plaintiff, Margaret Banks, a dressmaker, had known the defendant, Frederick Gould, a booking clerk, since they were children.' The couple had been lovers for eight years but this year, while on his holiday in the Isle of Man, the defendant wrote coolly to the plaintiff, and finally said that he could not marry her. He sent her his best wishes, and hoped that she would forgive and forget him. The defendant did not appear, and the jury awarded the young woman z625 damages. It is anticipated that the Technical Education Board of London will require zE88,130 to carry on their work in the ensuing year. £ 31,130 is forth- coming from the balance in the hands of the Board, being the sum unspent for the purposes of techni- cal education in respect of the last two years out of the money provided under the Local Taxation (Customs and Excise) Act, 1890. £ 57,000 will con- sequently be required from the money received by the County Council this year under the Act. The sum of Y,29,000 is to be set aside for country scholarships. The polling in the Brigg division will probably be fixed for Friday, December 7. A domestic servant sued nine members of a West Ham cricket club at the How County Court on Monday, for injuries she had sustained through being hit by a ball while she was sitting on a public seat in West Ham Park, about 40 yards distant from where the members of the club were practising. A park-keeper said there were no rules in existence as to the height of the practising nets, and he considered the club's nets were safe. Judge French said it was clear there had been no breach of regulations and no negligence on the part of the club, and ho must give judgment for them. Defen- dant's counsel said he did not ask for costs, on which his Honour remarked that he should not expect any other course from good cricketers. The result of the Bradford School Board election was announced on Monday. The new Board will be composed of six Churchmen, two Catholics, five Liberals, and one representative of the Teachers and of the Independent Labour party respectively. The dei-ioiiiinationalists have thus a majority on the Board, for the first time since 1373. The trial of the action brought by the Rev. R. Macmillan against the publishers of Truth for libel, in impugning his motives in carrying on a mission in London, ended on Monday in a ver- dict for the plaintiff, with a farthing damages. Lord Russell said he should deprive the plaintiff of his costs, as he was of opinion that the action ought never to have been brought. 11 At Aldershot, on Monday, Charles YVyeth, William Hoare, and Arthur Goddard were charged on remand with having attempted to wreck the Bournemouth express at Fleet, on the 19th instant. Deputy Chief Constable Stephenson said no fur- ther evidence would be offered then, but the case would be complete on Thursday, when important testimony would be forthcoming. A remand was granted. The accused maintained a careless de- meanour, and seemed to treat the matter as a joke. -+--

AN INFAMOUS CHARGE AGAINST THE CHURCH, REFUTED. We are asked to publish the following corres- pondence:- [COPY] 125, Beatrice Street, L Oswestrv 22nd November, 1894. My Lord Archbishop, At a Church Defence meeting held at West Felton, near Oswestry, on the 29th ult., it was publicly stated by the Rev. J. Charles. a Noncon- formist Minister, as an illustration of the induce- ments held out to Nonconformists to join the- National Church, that a relative of his, soon after he left Brecon College, was offered a stall in Canterbury Cathedral with £ 500 a year to begin with, and as such a statement unless authorita- tively denied is likely to do the Church in this district much harm, I shall be glad if your Grace will kindly permit me to state publicly on your authority that such an offer was not, nor even could have been made to an unordained person. I beg to remain, My Lord Archbishop, CHAS. HY. YVILLIAMS. The Most Reverend, His Grace the Archbishop of Canterbury, Lambeth Palace, S. E. [COPY] Addington Park, Croydon, 24th November, 1894. My Dear Sir, In reply to your letter of the 22nd inst., in which you call attention to the fact that it was stated, at a Church Defence meeting, at West Felton, that a student of Brecon College was offered a stall in Canterbury Cathedral with zC500 a year to begin with if he would join the Church of England, I have to say that then is not the slightest foundation for such a story. Believe me, faithfully yours, EARNEST L. RIDGE. Chaplain. Mr. C. H. Williams.

ACCOMMODATION FOR PARISH MEETINGS. We arc requested to publish the following correspondence :— County Council Office, Welshpool, 7th Nov., 1894. Local Government Act, 1894. Sir,—A difficulty has been brought before my committee with reference to the first Parish Meet- ing. Several important new parishes in this county formed by the operation of the above Act have no suitable parish room nor any schoolroom or other place suitable for a meeting within the precincts of the parish. May I trouble you to inform me if it will be competent for the overseers to call the meeting in a convenient schoolroom outside the boundary of the new parish.—I am, sir, your obedient servant, GEO. D. HARRISON. The Secretary, Local Government Board. Local Government Board, Whitehall, S. W., 20th November, 1894. Sir,—I am directed by the Local Government Board to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 7th instant, and, as regards, the holdings of a Parish Meeting outside the parish, to refer you to paragraph 2 of the accompanying memorandum prepared by the Board on the subject of Parish Meetings. With respect to the question in your letter of the 31st ultimo, the Board are of opinion that as a general rule any poll for the election of Guardians, Rural District Councillors or Parish Councillors I for a parish, should be held within the particular parish, but where it is impracticable to obtain the uBCTUr (TSuaauit; xwmi nnrtrrn t7h pari<>h, :r" think the meeting may be held outside the parish. It does not seem to the Board that the matter is one which requires any action of the County Council under section 80 (1) of the Local Govern- ment Act, 1894. The Board must not be understood, however, as expressing any opinion as to whether a schoolroom outside the parish could be required for the use of the meeting if the School Managers were unwilling to grant it for this purpose.—I am, sir, your obedient servant, S. B. PROVIS, Assistant Secretary. G. D. Harrison, Esq., Clerk of the County Council for Montgomeryshire.

PAROCHIAL ELECTORS! BE READY FOR THE 4TH OF DECEMBER!! HOW TO NOMINATE. If you wish to nominate a candidate for the Parish Council, go to the overseers and ask for a nomination form, which they will give you free of charge. Find another parochial elector to second the nomination. Having got the form, write in the first column the surname of your candidate; in the second column his (or her) Christian names in full in the third column his place of abode (that is, his postal address). In the fourth column write his occupation, if he has one if he is a man living on his property without occupation, write gentle- man if your candidate is a woman, write "married woman" or widow" or spinster" as the case may be. In the fifth column write parochial elector if your candidate is a parochial elector of your parish; if he or she is not a parochial elector write residence." You cannot nominate any person who is not on the list of parochial electors, unless he or she has lived for twelve months in your parish or within three miles of it, and is of age. Sign your name and place of abode and see that the seconder does the same. If the nominator or seconder cannot write his name, he may sign with a mark; in that case two parochial electors must sign as witnesses. Take the nomination with you to the parish meeting on December 4til and give it to the chair- man. THE CHAIRMAN. It is very important to get a good chairman for the parish meeting. He must be a parochial elector, and must not be himself a candidate. He ought to be intelligent, impartial, and generally respected, and used to public m3etings. Talk over the choice with your fellow electors, and be sure that some- one is ready to propose the best man as soon as the hour of meeting strikes. At the meeting you must follow his instructions and obey his ruling without complaint. Any person who is likely to be nominated as chairman should prepare himself for his duties by reading the Act and the Parish Councils Election Order," or some good hand- book. AT THE PARISH MEETING. When the chairman is elected, he will at once inform you how many Parish Councillors are to be elected. Yon can find this out beforehand by reading the Overseers' notice. [If your parish is a small one, with less than 300 inhabitants, the chairman will have to put the question whether you want a Parish Council or not. Think over this question, and give attention to t rie reason?! fur or against which he and others wiil put before the meeting, j T'.LECTIOX OF Til" COU NC'IL.-NO-VINATIO. The chairman will ask for nomination papers. He will examine each and decide whether it is properly filled iij). If he rejects it as not properly filled up he will inform the meeting whv. To prevent failure it is safest for each candidate to have at least one r J1C1)!lination paper ready, signed by another pioooser and acd seconder. The Chairmim v. ill allow fifteen minutes, and as much longer time as may be necessary, for the handing in aud examination of the nomination papers. <jrK>'iTo:ss. After the nomination, and before the show of hands, any parochial elector may ask any question of the candidates. The questions should refer to the qualifications of the candidates and to matters that the Council will have to deal with. Candidates should refuse to answer questions which they deem impertinent. WITHDRAWAL. Any person Dominated may withdraw by saying that he wishes to do so; or, if not present, by sending a notice of withdrawal signed by himself. If the number of persons nominated is not larger than the number to be elected, the Chairman will declare all of them duly elected. THE SHOW OF H AN OS. If the number of candidates is larger than the number to be elected, the Chairman will put the names in alphabetical order to the meeting, and you will hold up your hand in favour of each candi- date you desire to support. The Chairman will count the hands, which should be kept up till he has finished counting. No person who is not a parochial elector for your parish may vote. If you see such a person present do not ask him to go, but if he holds up his hand, call the attention of the Chairman, and his vote may not be counted. DEMAND OF POLL. Any parochial elector present may demand a poll, that is that the vote be taken again by voting papers on Monday, December 17th. (The County Council may, for special reasons, alter the date to December 15th, 18th or 19th). As the poll will cost money, It should not be demanded without good reason. If you wish to get a man in, do your best to get as many of his supporters as possible to the parish meeting. If he is then beaten at the show of hands you will be satisfied then that he would have no chance at a poll. A full attendance of electors at the parish meet- ing may save great trouble and expense. Even if a poll is demanded, it mav be saved if a sufficient number of the crwididnu s give notice of withdrawal, in writing, to the Returning Officer (that is, the Cleik of i he Guardians, or someone appointed by the Guardians to act for him) six clear days b< the (by of polh IN CA-E OF A I'O' Go tr, tin- polling station during the hours fixed by the County Council and publicly announced. Tell your name and address to the Presiding Officer, lie will give you a voting paper. MarkX in the space at the right hand of the name of each candidate for whom you vote. Do not make any other mark on the paper. You will be told for how many names you may vote you may vote for fewer if you choose, but not for more. Fold the paper show the official mark on the back to the Presidiug Officer, and drop it into the ballet box. If you spoil a voting paper by accident give it back to the Presiding Officer and ask him for another. ON THE CHOICE O? CANDIDATES. Some of the chief powers of your Parish Council will be :-(I) To appoint overseers; (2) To hire land for allotments, and to let Parish land for allotments-, (3) To manage parish property hither- to held by the churchwardens and overseers (4) To provide and manage recreation grounds and the like, and to look after the village green &c.; (5) To repair public footpaths (6) In certain cases to elect trustees for charities (7) To cleanse or cover up unwholesome drains, ditches and ponds; (8) To complain to the County Council if the powers of the District Council are not, used for the advantage of the parish, and to complain to the proper authorities of encroachments, of unhealthy dwell- ings and other grievances. For these and other like purposes they may spend a fund raised by a rate of 3d in the Pound, or, if the parish meeting permits, of 6d in the Pound. The best candidates are those whom you deem best able to manage such business in your interest. No political or religious question can possibly come before a Parish Council; therefore you need not consider what a candidate's political or religious views are. But it is plain that the Council will be most likely to give general satisfaction if all classes and all parties are, as far as possiblo, fairly repre- sented iif it.

— THE DAIRY INDUSTRY IN WALES. Mr. Marshall Dugdale writes as follows :—The dairy industry in Wales, which is a matter of the greatest importance to farmers (ard therefore of necessity, to landlords) is in a most depressed condition. Improved railway facilities at home and fast steamers from abroad, fitted up with the latest sys- tem of refrigerating machines, have created a perfect revolution in the butter trade, and have enabled the colonies and foreign countries to flood our markets with what I may call subsided butter." This is solo at such a cheap rate and is of such excellent qupli:y, that it seriously affects rtM: Bate uf TVehsIi butter. The teaching of the Couuty Councils has also tended to make people accustomed to a different quality and taste of butter from that formerly liked. In company with the Chairman of the Dairy Committee of the Royal Agricultural Society, I visited a leading provision shop in the West End of London. The head of the firm (which is one of the largest in London), said they did not buy any English butter, as they could not obtain constant uniformity of quality. Another large buyer in the South of England told me that all his best butter came from France, and that he believed he lost money on all the butter he purchased in England though the price he gave was ridiculously low. Last spring I wrote to inquire if I could sell butter at Reading, and was informed that the greater quantity used there came from Italy, that it was cheap, and the people were all satisfied with it. Such being the case I was not surprised to find that this year, butter even of the best quality com- manded a less price than in previous years, and that inferior butter was almost unsaleable. In IIlz opinion the best fresh butter made in orth Wales hardly ever comes into ths market, but is disposed of at home. If, however, a few pounds are left, dealers, are glad to buy it at Id a pound under retail market price. My experience has shown me that if a person takes, say, 401bs of fresh butter to the market, no matter how excellent the quality may be, the price given by the dealers never exceeds the Id under the retail market price. The retail price of the market is governed, 1 believe, by the price obtained on the benches. Once last winter and once this summer I sent to Oswestry and Welsh- pool, and bought the best butter I could obtain on the benches, and I had such complaints from my customers that now if my own supply runs short and I cannot obtain the butter from some of my farmer friends, who make butter according to modern requirements, I send to London and get supplied there. If people who make butter wish to secure a good price they must study their cus- tomers, and whatever quality of butter these re- quire, must be supplied them, cr the trade will go elsewhere. No general line of action can be laid down to suit all cases. Every farmer must consider what is the best and most paying method of dealing with his own dairy produce in accordance with his local surroundings. A few farmers who live near a railway can sell milk to the big towns. Some who live near towns or villiages can make a profit by selling milk, cream, butter, and cream cheese to private customers and shopkeepers. Others a«ain who live near a railway may send butter to private customers at a distance, and these will always give a fair piece for a pure unadulterated butter.' Tons of adulterated butter are sold in the towns and villages all over the country as "pure fresh butter," and farmers should insist that their repre- sentatives in Parliament should demand the appointment of Government Inspectors, who would go round and prosecute in all cases of adulteration in dairy produce. Those farmers whose wives can make cheese of good quality will find that this pays better than butter. To the up-country farmers who cannot make cheese, I can only advise them to follow the sound practical advice given by Mr. J. J. Roberts Put your" salt" butter into keg's or boxes which will hold 12, 24 or 561bs. These kega and boxes, which can be bougnt very cheap, are more easily handled than tubs, and the small quantity of butter they contain cau be purchased hy people who could never tunk of buying a big tub of butter. I know 1 am treading- Oil dangerous ground. I have never yet met a farmer's wife who did not think her own butter excellent. The question, however is not one of sentiment, but of hard pounds, Suillings, and peuce, and those wiio get good prices lor oheir dairy produce can afford to put up with a certain amount of ridicule from il"e who laugh at their new ways. Butter factories are an immense help in many counties, but L doubt much if they would answer in the hilly parts of Wales, and there is a great deal of difficulty in the management of them. In a future article 1 will deal with the present methods of butter-making—the new teaching of the Wt-lsh Universities in dairy work and will endeavour to offer some practical suggestions which may yossiblv be found of use.
