ANSWER IT HONESTLY!
ANSWER IT HONESTLY! Are not the opinions of Barmouth Residents better than those of Strangers ? The above is a vital question. It directly concerns Barmouth people. It can't be evaded or ignored. The Barmouth woman who speaks here, speaks for the good of the district. Read right through for yourself, and acknowledge the truth of these facts. On February 5tb. 1914, Mrs S. Jones, Aelfor Cottage, Barmouth, said :— I have been troubled with rheumatic pains in my back, which I have no doubt were caused by the kidneys not acting properly. A friend advised me to try Doan's backache kidney pills, and I am pleased to say they have done me very much good. I think Doan's pills fine, and have recommended them to my friends. (Signed) S. Jones." On February 7th. 1916-two .years later—Mrs Jones said I have bad so much benefit from Doan's pills that I use no others, and I still tell my friends to use them for kidney trouble." Doan's backache kidney pills are NOT for constipation, liver trouble or stomach disorder. They are solely for disorders of the kidneys and blad der such as dropsy, gravel, sediment, urinary troubles, backache, lumbago and rheumatism. They relieve the kidneys aud bladder like laxatives relieve the bowels. Price 2/9 a box, of all dealers or from Foster McClellan Co., 8, Wells Street, Oxford Street, London, W. Don't ask for backache or kidney I pilIs,ask distinctly for Doan's I backache kidney pills, the same as i Mrs Jones had. f

In spite of the bad weather prevailing at the time a large audience gathered in the Assembly Rooms, St. Ann's Square, to welcome these popular entertainers. In addition to the host of songs, duotts, and concerted numbers rendered, Messrs Pare and Bowden had secured the services of Mr Joe Taylor, the premier English exponent, whose skill on his instrument aroused the audience to great enthusiasm, Mr Taylor being recalled again and again. The plantation medley constituting songs and trios by Messrs Pare, Bowden and Taylor, accompanied by Banjo (Mr H. Bowden) and Concertina, was another item which was greatly appreciated. Mr Harry Battiste was a great success in his By and By song. Miss Lily Miller sang in her usual charming manner, and Mr Bertran Montague is par excellent at the piano. Mention may also be made that three very handsome prizes are presented to the holders of winning numbers of the Lady's Companion." Don't fail to see these special concerts. The New Concert Pavilion.—Bar. mouth is singularly lucky in possessing so excellent a concert party as the Entertainers who give such delightful concerts at the New Concert Pavilion. People who come away from home in these days more than ever need diver- sions to make them forget the cares from which no one at the present time is free. Nowhere, we feel confident. coald seekers after rest toil or sorrow find such diversion better than by spending an evening at the New Con- cert Pavilion. It is by no means sur. prising that the Entertainers have proved to be the most popular concert party that has ever appeared in Bar- mouth. One of the most successful concerts of the season was the one given by the Entertainers on Tuesday last, the 21st. There wes a crowded house and the audience very obviously enjoyed each item with keen zest. The concert opened with a concerted item called, Old Folks in Dixie Land," followed by another one entitled, My Father's Farm yard." The concerted items have been made a special feature of this concert-party, and they are in- variably successful. Tho singing espec- ially is good and Miss Simq' sweet soprano voice blends charmingly with Miss Hilda Maas' very rich contralto. Miss Dolly Anton is a most agile and clever danseuse, and her toe-dan- cing is particularly good. Her Rag-time song and dance was the third item on Tuesday evening and she was vocifer. ously encored. Miss Peggy Dallas and Mr Jack Edwards followed with some really amusing patter. Miss Dallas is deser- vedly very popular. She brims over with vitality and her personality is a charming one. Her singing and dancing are clever, and in her musical monolo- gues she proves herself mistress alike of humour and pathos. Mr Edwards is a bright and entertaining comedian and always keeps bis audience well amused. Miss Dallas' and Mr Edwards' item was followed by a very sweet rendering of "Tho Happy Valley" by Miss Evelyn Sims. Her voice is very rich and has the added quality of perfect clearness. For her encore, Miss Sims I sang I- Sincerity with exquisite feeling. I Mr Jack Edwards followed with a humorous topical song 'on :the food j question that was much appreciated. j ,-1- ): ,>ç' ,{-> .t:t,1'¡; >¡'K"" "0:< lcrfj; | Then came an amu skelc,h by Miss D I AI,2, ?-i i, s De!mru' and Edwards.  i. exceedl?,,gly d-i ?o l l. Mr Bert Doim?r is exceedingly droll. II He is wit,ty; his facial expressions are very clever; and his numerous imper- son atioo S Jll os t convincing. The next itelTI was a. concerted one Mr Delmar followed with some very smart jokes and a comic song, entitled, "I can't make it out, can you ? which was encored with much enthusiasm. Miss Peggy Dallas then sang a rag- time, entitled, Lovers' Line," and in response to a vigorous encore, she gave a musical monologue, "Jest her way," in truly charming fashion. Encored yet once more, she gave an Anglo- French monologue, entitled," Alphonse." Messrs Ed wards and Delmar followed with some amusing patter. The second part opened with an amusing concerted item called Rock me, Susie," and then Miss Ivy Lloyd sang 11 Just a simple soldier" in a very feeling manner, accompanying herself at the piano. Miss Peggy Dallas then evoked very much laughter by her character-song, "The School Te,,i.eber giving -as her encore, If only I had a boy like you." Miss Dolly Anton then gitva. a de- lightful costume-song and dance, and she was enthusiastically encored. Then followed a singing competition for members of the audience, The winner was adjudged by the audience (who voted by ballot) to be Mr Ellis M. Evans. Mr Jack Edwards then sang "Closing Day" and a truly delightful concert was brought to a close by the singing of The Valley of the Moon." We can honestly advise out, readers that there is no more enjoyable way of spending an evening than to visit the "Entertainers." Each one is an artiste, and besides the fun and merriment which abounds, there is good singing as well. Miss Ivy Lloyd is an accom- plished and sympathetic pianist, and Mr Leslie Lewis a most capable and courteous manager.
