Funeral at Clyro. THE LATE MRS. PUGH. We tleeply regret to announce the death at the early age of 24 vt-ars, of Mrs W. 15. Pugh, formerly of Clyro mid King's Lynn, Norfolk, which occurred at her new residence, RcMf Villa, Hope-under-Dunmore, near Leo- min*U-r, on the morning of the 17th inst., after an illness of a painful nature, lasting over a month. The dece&std bore her sufferings with great fortitude and resignation. The event was singularly tragic, as besides her youthful age the deceased had only quite recently gone into her n-ew home upon the discharge from the army of her husband. She was well known and highly esteemed in the neighbourhood of Clyro, where prior to her marriage just over a year ago, most of her single life was spent, and her early death i.-« an astounding blow to her husband, mother. sister.* and brothers, who are left to mourn the great loss of one so near and dear to them, besides the large circle of friends and ac- quaintances her genial, friendly and sympathdi-c dis- position had won for her. Prior to leaving, the Rev. F. W. Carlton, vicar of llope-under-Dunmore, conducted a brief service at the house. The remain- were conveyed by rail from Leo- minster to Hay, on Tuesday, and were met at the station ivet at t h *-? station by a large number of 1wople, who bore them to her parents' home at Cl.vro. All along the route of pro- cession blinds were drawn in reverend token aid r-ym- pathv and rerpect. The interment, was on Wednesday at Clyro Parish Churchyard. Before leaving the houee. the Vicar, Canon n. Griffith, of Clyro, assisted by the curate. Rev. Hoyw, held a short service of prayer. The mournful procession then wended its way to the Church, beaded by the vicar and curate. The. coffin, decked with flow- ers, was borne to the Church by Messrs. iteorge Harris, John Palrtier, John Williams, and T. Tuck. The chief mourners were Mr W. Pugh (husband), Mrs Thomas (mother), 3[r H. G. Thomas and Mr George Thomas (brothers), Miss A. J. Thomas (Brecon), Miss ti .M. Thomas (Swansea) and Miss A. G. Thomas (Hope- iirider-Dunmore), sisters; Mrs J. Pugh (Glasbixri,) mother- in-law; Mr E. Pugh (Glasbury), brotlifr-in-law: Mrs G. Harris, Mrs Hurds, and others. The Rev. Canon D. Griffith, vicar of Ciyro. assisted by Rev. Boyle, curate, took the t-erviee in Church; and the hymns, "Brief life is here our portion," and "On the Rewsumetion morning," were most feelingly rendered by the choir and congregation. Mr T. Halstead presided at the organ, and the Dead March was played at the close of a moist impressive ærvke. The service at the graveside was again taken by the vicar and curate. Flowers had been placed in bunches at intervals in the mossed grave by sympathising and sorrowing friend." of the deceased. The coffin, 6upplied by Messrs. Wood ,of Hope, was of plain, unpolished oak, with brass, fittings. The plate bore the in- .-cription. Hertha Pugh, born April 13th 1893, died II 17th March, 1918."

GOOD NEWS! I I No apology is needed for goocl news or even for I iis repetition. Good news k ia said travels fast; yet srrangeiy enough tens of thousands of people fail to recognise it, or at any rate to appreciate its practical :significance when it reaches diern. For example, there are few people of adult years, who have not heard time and again of the wonderfully beneficial action of Mother Seigel's Syrup in the treatment of indigestion and allied disorders of the stomach, liver and bowels. Yei. though they have heard the good news, probably direct from a personal friend or neighbour, they fail to appropriate it to themselves. Evidence ofthjs we have had in abundance. Don't you, after reading this, fail to remember the "good news" tlm there is no more popular remedy be fore the public for relieving and prevent- ing d;g<i>tive troubles than Mother Seigd's Syrup. It is because Mother Seigel's Syrup goes to the root of the trouble that it has been so successful for close on fifty years. It ads directly on the organ3 of dige-,tioii-.etom-i ach, liver and bowels—tones, strengthens, and stimulatesthcrn to healthy actmty, so that- they are able to perform their work naturally and effi- ciently. "With these organs in sound condition, you are sure to look well, feel well and be well. A word to the wise is sufficient. If indigestion causes you to think—then remember Mother Stigel's Syrup.

Brookes, whose playing on the harp was one of the features of t-lie students' concert at the University College, Cardiff, the other night, is a daughter of Mr6 J. M. Bnookevs, Brecon. Miss Brookes is a medioal student. Both her grandfather and uncle on the maternal side have been Mayors of Brecon. =1< The President of the Board of Trade hag sent to Mr C. B. Stanton, M.P., a letter from the General Manager of the Great Western Railway, stating that in respect of Army requirements. M to engine power and men, it "would be inconsistent to reinstate the train services in the Merthvr-Aberdare district as they were in times gone by, but from the 1st of April some modification would be made in the present service. The 5.30 p.m. train from Merthyr, Abernant, to rur- v/ain, would be timed half-an-hour later, and the 6.10 p.m. Hirwain too lierthyr 25 minutes later. IFhe late Capt. Mayberv, a double M.C., and one of the heroevi of the Royal Flying Corps, was the only won of the late Mr Aveline Maybery, a well-known Brecon eolicitor, and tof Mrs Maybery,. O.B.E., Priory House, Brecon. The air service never advertises the work of its heroes, or some of the feats of the late Captain Maybery would make thrilling reading. One one occa- sion the war correspondents, without giving any name, described how one of our young airmen bombed han- gars, bowled over train?, fired round after round at the Huns crouching in their trenches, and finished up by blowing a motor-car containing n-taff officers to smithereens. It has «ince leaked out that the hero of this exploit was the late Captain Maybery. >i< Mr Sidney Robinson, who has been taking a pro- minent part in the debates on Prohibition as a war measure, invited the Prime Minister, on Thursday, to give the House an opportunity of deciding by vote and without debate for or against the continuance of the sale ct intoxicating liquors in the precincts of the House of Commons during the period of the war. He suggests that such a division should be arranged for an early date after Easter. "The suggestion has been made," says Mr Robinson, "that the working men should be approachcd on the drink question, and I he- lieve if it is properly submitted to them they will rise to the necessity of a great national reform. But it is the duty of House to set an example, and I hope another opportunity will be given to it to follow for the time being the example of those in the highest places in the land. We ought to tet an example to the workmen, and exclude aU drink for the time be- ing, as nen-teetotal friends of mine are willing to do. Then we can go to the country with a better ease." Parliament already strictly observes the, drink regula- tions generally applied in London.
