Flint and Denbigh Congregational Union. Annual Meetings at Holywell. THE annual meetings of this union have been held at Holywell, under the presidency of the Rev. H. Uwchlyn Jones, Rhosycae, the president for the year. There was a very large attendance of dele- gates.—The President, in his address, reviewed the work of the union for the past year, under the heading of "The Holy Spirit and Its Work." —Votes of condolence were passed with relatives of clergymen who had died.—The Rev. Dr. Olnei, Holywell, proposed a resolution condemn- atory of the Education Bill, which pointed out, amongst other objections, that the result of the Bill would be to greatly multiply voluntary schools. Dr. Olnei, on this point, remarked that the bribe, after Mr Balfour's speech the other night, was greater than before, and would encourage the erection of voluntary schools all over the country.—Dr. Jarr Jones, Mostyn, seconded the resolution, which was carried.- The Rev. T. J. Rees, Llangollen, moved a reso- lution expressing profound satisfaction at the termination of hostilities in South Africa and the restoration of peace throughout the Empire and expressing a hope that all parties concerned in South Africa would now use every effort to foster friendly relations and a common brotherhood.— Dr. Parr Jones seconded the resolution, which was carried. A deputation from the Holywell Free Churches attended to offer a welcome to the union, and speeches were delivered by the Revs. J. Ernest Jones, Hugh Evans, and Mr Urias Bromley.— The President extended to the members of the deputation the ri'ght hand of fellowship.—Invita- tions having been received from Chester and Wrexham, it was decided to hold next year's meeting at the latter place.-On the proposition of the Rev. Dr. Oliver, seconded by Mr Lewis Everett (Mold), Mr Arthur Rowlands, town clerk of Rhyl, was appointed chairman of the union for the ensuing year; and, on the proposition of the Rev. R. Peris Williams, Mr Richard Rees, Holywell, was appointed treasurer in place of the late Mr Price Michael, Caergwrle.—Grants were made to weak churches to the extent of ^58 5s.-The receipts of the Church Aid Society for the year were reported to be £ 62 19s, leaving a balance of £12 in hand.—Preaching services were held, the preachers, being the Revs. H. Elvet Lewis, London; T. Nicholson, Bromley; Dr. Davies, Trelech; R. Peris Williams, Wrexham; T. E. Thomas, Coedpoeth; and J. Charles Denbigh. ♦

A Mad Cyclist. AN inmate who recently escaped from a private asylum was recaptured whilst trying to ride a bicycle he had seized upon, up the side of a rail- way cutting. There was but little more foolish- ness in his attempt than in the daily attempts of scores of people who drive their systems to do impossibilities. Summer heat robs them of their appetite. Food becomes distasteful, and is avoided, yet despite the fact that they are taking less nourishment, they force their systems to do the same amount of work as before. Women are especially sufferers in this direction, and, the result is debility, anaemia, "heat fag," 'and serious ailments peculiar to their sex. Chas. Forde's Bile Beans are a seasonable tonic. They create an appetite, give the weakened digestion power to deal with the food, stir up the sluggish liver, and stimulate it to normal action. They remove congestion which causes headache, and in all the common ailments of the home act like a charm. Your chemist will supply them at one and thre,e half-pence or two and nine per box, or you may receive post free from the Bile Bean Manufacturing Co., IIg, London Wall, E.C. for prices. They are not sugar coated, and. may be carried loose in the waistcoat pocket. This is a point for business men to remember.

To the verdict was added a rider that the Coun- cil should provide, as soon as possible, a boat or some other life-saving apparatus to be fixed on the beach in case of emergency. The jury complimented the coroner upon hold- ing his first inquest. The Coroner thanked the jury for their kind remarks, and said the fact of establishing a boat would be an additional security to an already safe beach. No doubt some of the jury were members of the Council, and they would see that the recommendation was carried to the proper quarter. The inquiry then terminated. ♦
