FOR WOMEN FOLK.
FOR WOMEN FOLK. HOMELY HINTS AND DAINTY DISHES. A charming woman, makes everyone feel at I home. Ermine tails mingling with la-ce and ribbons on elbow cuffs are seen in Paris. Soot on a carpet is easily swept up with- out injury if it is first covcred thickly with salt. Never give undiluted cow's milk to a baby under ten months old. The addition of a little barley water makes the milk more really nourishing, because it is more diges- tible. When baking potatoes always prick them with a. fork before putting them in the oven, which should only be moderately hot, espe- ¡ cially at first. If put in without being pricked they are very apt to buret, and will not be so floury, ae the steam bae no vent- hole. Muffins I One quart of fresh milk, three eggs, threes tablespoons of lard, salt, add two teaspoone1 ba.king powder, use pinch of soda, if milk inclines to sour. Stiffen with corn flour, and bake in ring paiis in a, hot oven. Do not ruake batter staffer than cake. To Clean Venetian Blinds I Untie the knots at the bottom of the blind and slip out all the laths except the thic lath at the bottom. Wipe the laddering cord, with a damp cloth. Put the laths on a tablk and wash them with a soft brush and eoap and water. Dry them thoroughly, and put back one by one, and knot firmly. Potatoes and Cheese j Cut one quart of cold boiled potatoes into I dice and* season with salt and pepper. Put a layer of potatoes into a. buttered baking dish and sprinkle with jrrated cheese; con- tinue in this way until the potatoes are all used. Pour over them one pint of white I sauce, sprinkle with bread crumbs and bake I in a .quick oven fifteen minutes. Cara of the Coffee Pot Good coffee cannot be made in a neglected coffee pot. Of all utensils this is most fre- quently slighted by servants, and fortunate indeed is the housekeeper whose domestic can be trusted with the proper daily cleans- ing of the coffee boiler. If one wishes to gave left-over coffee, it is better to turn off the liquid into an earthen bowl or pitcher, throwing away the grounds and warming the clear coffee, than to stew over what is left. In an ordinary family it is easy to manage so that fresh coffee may be made for each meal for which it is used without waste. This is more hea;ithful and quite satisfac- tory, and quite as economical in the long run as to make so much pt first that what remains must be heated over. It is a mistake to use soapsuds when cleaning a coffee pot; only clear, scalding water should be used, and all of the brown film, so destructive of fine flavour, which collects on the inside, can be easily removed by a minute's brisk scouring with a table- j spoonful of dry ssalt and a. piece of heavy brown paper. Rinse thoroughly, and dry quickly on a warm stove, and be well repaid for the little trouble by the improved flavour cf your morning beverage.
Passing Pleasantries. I
Passing Pleasantries. I The late Sir John Godfrey never got up before one o'clock, and invariably breakfasted be-for4a on4a o*elock, and 4 when his family were having luncheon. He was asked one day to account for this rather inconvenient habit. The faoet is," he confessed, I sleep very alow (" A military man visiting Cairo was being "sbovrn over" the Pyramids, and a. guide who wanted to astonish him remarked, It took hundreds of years to build these Pyra, mids, sir." Ah," said the soldier absent-mindedly, Government contract, I suppose!
STORY -FOR TO-DAY I•
STORY FOR TO-DAY Agnes Brent's Faith- lessness. The summer day was dying in the west; along the low, far-off line of the horizon the cky waa full of flaming brightness that mirrored itself in the blue waters that seemed to meet it. Higher up, the sky was full of purple shadows, shot through here and there with lines of gold. Two persons walked along the beaeh-a man, who sa-w only the brightness in the face of the woman by his side, realising in a vague way from her features, that held such a charm for him, the splendour of the sunset pageantry. She was looking out to sea. The sunset fires seemed to glow beneath the lashes of her eyes; its crimson radience made her chosk bright, and touched her hair with shifting lights. wI shall be gone three years," he said softly, his eyes still on her face. Three years are a. long time." she answered slowly. I know that," he said; bat they cannot -e longer to you than they will be to me." She did not reply, but kept her eyes on the I ading brightness in the west. You will write often, I know," he said, aking her hand. "Your letters will help tc aake the time seem shorter." But you arc not sure of getting them," she .nswered. "You are going far away, and I nto a country where one doesn't enjoy the aeans of correspondence with a great deal of ertainty." But I shall know you have written, if I do not get your letter," he said, trustingly. John Derwent had a vast amount of faith in Agnes Brent. He loved her; consequently he trusted her. And you are going to-morrow?" She asked the question with a little shadow in her face. Yes, I start- to-morrow," he answered. I shall not see you again. I have come to bid you good-bye." She dropped the long lashes of her eyelids to hide the tears that gathered there. Her betrothed husband was going away for three lonesome years. She should miss him. Like most women, sweet words and tender caresses were pleasant to her. No one had ever cared for her before as John Derwent did. To know that she was loved by someone —that in that person's regard she was the one woman in the world—was a, knowledge fraught with pleasant emotions. They walked up and down the beach, while the sunset died away into sombre greyness, I and till long after the yellow moon had started on her voyage up the sky. Then John Derwent kissed her good-bye. She hung upon his neck, her warm tears falling swiftly, and would have kept him back. But he must go; and, with his kisses on her lips, he whispered his words of parting-and wae gone. I wonder if the moon looked down on other scenes like that that night? Did it see other lovers kissing good-byes and parting with tru3t in ea-ch other's faithfulness through the days or months or years of separation? The days went. John Derwent reached his destination safely. The situation offered to him was a lucrative one, and in his new Australian home he was quite contented, feeling that love was waiting him by-and-bye that would amply re-pay him for the long days and lone- some hours that were sometimes his. Letters camo regularly for the first year; not haJf so often as he could have wished them to, but as often as he could expect them. Pleasant, loving letters, that were full of teiader, little wishes for his comfort and happiness, and of lon-ging for him to come baok to her. It was so lonely after he left. It Wal3 pleasant fcr John Derwent to read such letters-to know that at home one heart was so true and tender, that one heart thought always of him, and yearned for his return. "If every man could have a love like that which life has given to me—your love, Agnes/' John Derwent wrote home in one of his letters, "there would be much more happi- ness than there is at present—fewer men who scoff at woman's truth and constancy. I never thought for a moment of doubting you, Agnes; I should not forgive myself were I to do so. You are my ideal of all that woman should be—true, tender, womanly." You can see from that how much he cared for her-wbat faith he had in her. *••• The day was dying aogain in a pomp of purple glory. The sky had a gloomy look about it, despite its lurid brightness where the sun had gone down. The wind moaned across the beach, and beat against the rock, where the waves have lashed themselves into a white foam of fury. It had been a terrible day. The storm had spent its violence now; but the ship that had etruggled so nobly to save its crew had fallen a prey at last to wind and water, and lay a helpless wreck a little way out at sea. Men and women gathered on the e,hore. They cast anxious glances seaw-ard and watched the waves to see if any semblance of humanity was swept to land by them. A woman stood a little way off from the others—a tall, handsome woman in rich gar- ments. She looked towards the wrecked vessel with a little pallor on her face. Presently a. wave leaped in shoreward and thea swept back again, leaving a body on the sand. Seaweeds t-an-gled themselves in his wet hair and clung to the man's gar- ments. She cried out to someone close to her, and diractly there was a little crowd about the body. They took it up reverently, as though they were bearing the dead; perhaps they were. They might be, for all they could tell then. The man was taken to some place where shelter and care could be afforded, if there was any traces of life clinging to him, and medical aid summoned. He was not quite dead. There were great gashes on his face and bruises on his body. and the waves had nearly chilled out of him the little life that other injuries had left him. But by-and-bye he opened his eyes and looked around. He saw the woman 'standing near to whose feet the water had brought him, and a great light came into his face, and he whispered very faintly, but still loud enough for hei to hear him, "Agnes, darling, I have come back to you. I knew you would be true. Come and kiss me, darling." A cry of pain found its way to the woman's white lips. In that voice, so weftk and low, and by the words, she recognised the man before her. John Derwent bad como back to her, and he thought her true! And for a year she had been the wife of another man. "Don't you know me. Agnes?" he whispered. "I'm dying, I think. Won't you kiss me?" She sank down beside him and kieeed his face, her tears falling on it like rain. Her husband came towards her, wonderingly; but she motioned him back, and he obeyed eileirtly. It'3 a different coming home from the one we thought of, darling," Derwent whispered; but I knew you would be true, and I never doubted you for a moment, though I didn't get any letter for a. long time-a, very long time, darling; but I knew you would be true." He said these last words in a dreamy way, and they knew he was drifting out to sea again—out to sea, past all wreck and storm; and on this voyage there would be no coming back. Every word was like a knife-thrust in the heart of the woman who had been so faith- less, and whom he thought so true. 44 I'm sorry, dear," he said a moment after, opening his eyes and smiling in her face; but we can't help it. I can die easier with you by me, darling. I knew you would be true." 10 The bitter thrust again! She shivered like a guilty thing. Kiss me! he whispered. And she kissed him, once and again, and John Derwent's life went out into the great Eternal—sailed out to find the Happy Islands and the lands-of which we dream—died think- ing that the woman he loved was true. It was better thus. But. I wonder if, in the Hereafter, he found out how faithless she had been ? Did it touch bis soul with thoughts of bitterness, or was the new life too far removed from the old to know any earthly care or disappointment ? Who can tell?

A PLUNGER'S FORTUNE. I
A PLUNGER'S FORTUNE. I George Smith, the most notorious and suc- cessful Turf plunger in America, died yester- day, aged 42, leaving a fortune of nearly £ 500,000. He started life as a railway porter, but soon afterwards devoted hiimself exclusively to betting on horses, a pursuit in which he showed great financial genius. He won and lost big fortukes, but in his later years became so uniformly successful thait the bookmakers refused to take his bets. He had recently suffered from consumption. He built a marble mausoleum for his burial, which cost £ 6,000. To all appearances Smith was most phlegmatic and philosophical, but bis doctor alleges that constant betting and suppressed exedtennent undoubtedly hastened his death.

ASTON PLAYEK & HIS WELSH MEDALSI
ASTON PLAYEK & HIS WELSH MEDALS The council of the Welsh Football Associa- tion has been appealed to by EL Price, a pro- fessionaa of the Aston Villa team, zoespeoting a, singular dispute between himself and the Aberdare club. Last year Price played as an amateur for Aberdare, and tiiat team gained three sets of medcils for winning the South Wales Cup, being champions of the South Wales and Monmouth slhire League, and as runners-up for the Welsh Senior Cup. In all these ties Price took part, but the club had not given him a single medal. He alleged that the reason for tho action of the Aberdare club was his refusal, at the begin- ning of thus season, to sign a. professional form for them, so that they could obtain a. transfer fee from the Aston Vii' club The secretary of the Iberd,are c J said the medals were in his possession, and Plrioe could have them on calling for them. The council thought Price had been very unfairly dealt with by the Aberdare club. and ordered the medals to be forwarded to Price, through. the Welelh Association secretary, within seven days.

TEARS AND SMILES TEARS AND…
TEARS AND SMILES TEARS AND SMILES I MOVING AND INTENSE SCENES AT TKEHARRIS. Passionate Prayers for Mr. Evan Roberts. To one who had been a. witness to the wonderful and memorable meetings of the last few days at Merthyr and Troedyrhiw the afternoon meating at Brynhyfryd Baptist Chapel, Treharris, yesterday, might be regarded as comparatively cold and un- eventful; but there was, nevertheless, in this quiet meeting a good deal of fervour, and there was throughout a. spontaneity which did not allow for a single panse in a service which lasted over three hours. The evening meeting was held at Taber- nacle Welsh Congregational Chap-el. It seemed to have been generally known or inferrred, from the fact that this was tho largest I chapel of the place, that the missioner would be present there, and the crush was tremen- dous. Police-officers had as much as they could do to cope with it. At this meeting further indications were given of the great sympathy felt with the evangelist in view of the recent attacks made upon him. The prayers offered up in his behalf were most fervent-indeed, dozens of people simultaneouely prayed passionately for him. "0 God, eave Evan Roberts bach! was the quaintly-termed petition of one of the hundreds who prayed for the evangelist at this wonderful meeting in response to an appeal for prayers in his behalf, it being stated that he was at the time rather perturbed in mind. But what a wonder- ful meeting this was! It is very seldom that an atternoon and a evening meeting in I the same locality are so markedly contrastive. Tears and smiles, cries for mercy and shouts of joy, sorrow and rejoicing, heartrending prayers and erultant exclamations com- mingled in a wonderful manner. The people were in deadly earnest, and it is no exag- geration to say that time after time hundreds cf people prayed simultaneously. Can any of you young men honestly sing 'Tell mother I'll be there'?" queried one young man, and there was a loud affirmative response. "I have started going there, and, oh, it is beautiful to start on crutches," said one, as his crutches were held up by another, the speaker being a one-legged, deformed young fellow. Tho eoene became more moving and intense aog the meeting wore oil, it being hardly neccesary for Mr. Roberts to speak a word. Indeed, the only way he could hava an opportunity of speaking was by stopping the singing, and he then made a powerful appeal to the people to accept the Saviour. But the emost moving sight of all was to witness the ecstatic delight of the people at the announcement of converts. They clapped their hands, they shouted, they cried with joy." And this prayerful assembly was prone to tears. Men cried like children, and many Englishmen present, although they understood but very little—it being nearly all Welsh- were often seen with tears trickling down their faces. A number of converte were recorded at both the afternoon and evening meetings, Mr. Roberts again exhibiting those t marvellous intuitive powers which he has been displaying the last few days. Cprdiff Converts. STEPS TAKEN FOR THEIR FUTURE I SUPERVISION At the Tabernacle Chapel, Cardiff, on Thursday evening was a very large congre- gation at the usual revival meeting. Prin- cipal Edwards, tho Rev. Charles Davies, Mrs. Edwards, and a considerable number of workers were very active in the conduct of the meeting. At the close Dr. Edwards announced that the number of converts enrolled at the meetings held in that chapel up to date was 485, apd he intimated that an announcement would be made later on as to the steps which it was intended should ] be taken in order to try to provide for the future supervision of such converts in con- nection with their membership in various! Christian Churches in Cardiff or eleewSiere. The Rev. Charles Davies subsequently announced that a meeting, to which all these converts were cordially invited, wo-uld be held at the Tabernacle at half-past three on Sunday afternoon next for the purpose of praise, prayer, testimony, Ac. It was also necessary to get the full names and addresses of all the converts, and changed addresses where they had been changed since they had become converts, and to endeavour to get them to join the Taber- nacle or some other church. There would possibly be some dimculty even in reaching them by means of a circular, but circulars had been sent out inviting them to come to that meeting, and he hoped that further publicity would be given to this invitation by everybody present at the meeting and by the press. Dr. Edwards afterwards announced the conversion of. among others, a man who had once held an important position in a Monmouthshire town, but had fallen through drink. Relief Work at Cardiff It will be interesting to learn that s'nos the appeal made a few days ago by Mrs. Dr. Edwards for funds or goods to relieve the wants of some of the poorer people in Car- diff sums of money amounting in aJI to about S5, mostly in copper, have been received. Two sacks of potatoes, a sack of peas, and other food materials had been received at the Tabernacle, and on Thurs- day for the first time 28 gallons of coup was distributed, workers appearing at the Taber- nacle vestry and taking the soup out in jugs to places where it was thought it would be needed. The stories told by some of these workers on their return were quite heart- rending. Mrs. Edwards requests us to state that so long as money and the goods come in she and other willing workers will under- take the work, and, further, that by Mon- day next it is hoped that arrangements can be made not only for carrying out the soup into the houses of the people, but for supply- ing as ma.ny as poeeible with food at the Tabernacle vestry. Further particulars of this work, however, will be given later on. I
A WONDERFUL DlbCOVERY. I
A WONDERFUL DlbCOVERY. I Skin-H ealing- Past and Present I Two thousand years ago, the usual way of healing was to anoint the body with some oil or balm made from the extracts of certain valuable herbs and roots. In modern times, however, there has been a gradual departure from the laws and ideas of Nature; and to- day we find the majority of ointments and salves composed not of pure vegetable extracts. but of coarser and less effective ingredients in the shape of rancid animal fats and mineral poisons. Such latter pre- parations are either too coarae to get absorbed into the skin, with the result that they utterly fail to heal and dispel disease as they profess to he able to do; or their mineral ingredients have a positively harmful effect. It was for long the conviction of an eminent chemist that, inasmuch as the instinct to rub comes from Nature, then Nature herself probably had secreted away somewhere the precise articles to rub with. He. therefore, set to work with a view to finding this substance, and turned all inquiries in the direction of the herbs and shrubs in Nature's own store- house—the forest and bush, far removed from the borders of civilisation. At length, after a. wearying search, certain rare plants were found from which could be extracted juices possessing the astonishing power of creating new, healthy skin! When applied to a cut or more, inflammation and disease would be at once taken out, and new sound tissue grow completely over the affected place. To this unique extract were added other juices and balsams of high medicinal merit; the whole was refined and concentrated so as to increase the potency of each element, and Zam-buk, the great healer, thus came into existence. Zam-buk Contains exactly those substances which Nature has intended for the use of man ever since she bequeathed to him the instinct to rub a. place that hurts. It dispels pain, allays inflammation, arrests festering, drives disease out, and produces new, healthy skin in Nature's own way. It is. therefore, entirely different from, as well aa superior to. any ordinary preparation. OaTdiff (housewives and motihets particularly value Zam-buk for its purity, reliability, and wide range of usefulness. As an application for cuts, bruises, burns, scalds, abrasionis, sprains, poisoned or festering sores, piles, eczema (acute, chronic, or gouty), psoriasis, ulcers, bad legs, diseased, ankles, score backs, scurvy, dandruff, scali) irritation, shingles, barber's rash, abscesses, boils, pimples, ringworm, running sores, chapped hands, cold-sores, chafed skin, stiffness, sore aching feet, and for all injuries to. or diseases of, the skin, it is unequalled. Robbed well in, Zam-buk is invaluable for sore throat and chest, colds, chills, rheumatism, neuralgia, tic, sciatica, Ac. All ahemdste sell Zam-Buk in one- and-three-half-penny and two-and-ninepenny boxes (large size contains nearly four times as much, as the one-an d-tbree-half-penny), or it may be obtained post free from the Zam- buk company, Redcrow-street, London, E.C. It is the world's greatest skin healer, pro- vided for our use by Nature herself, and uo: Oardiff homo oan afford to be witbout, it. [

THE LITTLE RED MAIDS I
THE LITTLE RED MAIDS I One of Bristol's quaintest sights is the Sunday procession of the historic Red Maids' School. In red dresses, relieved with neat, white linen capes, they sing in the choir of l the Lord Mayor's Chapel. To the chance I observer this is a school-full of ohilclren- nothing more. But they have their indi- I vidual stories, and a Bristol newspaper prints a most interesting talk with the mother of one of them, a Mrs. Ruth Barnett, I which pleasingly illustrates their joye and pains, their welfare, and their times of sad- ness. "About a year ago my little Bridget, then eleven years old, was taken with St. Vitus' dance," said Mrs. Barnett. "It was so bad that if she eat on a sofa or chair she wriggled down to the floor. I did not like to take her out, for people's attention was attracted in the street by her. She would clutch, hold of my arms and almost drag me about. I "Bridget was at school at the time, and the mistress of the Bed MaMs sent for me to fetch her home. There are clever doctors connected with the school, but they all! thought Bridget too ill to stay. "I took her to the Bristol General Hospi- tal, where she was an in-patient for fourteen I weeks. The doctors showed a kindly interest in her, and told me that not only had she St. Vitus' dance, but her heart was also affected. She became so weak and thin that her life was despaired of. But the doctors continued to give her the best possible care, and, thanks to their kindness, Bridget was able to be removed to the Queen Victoria Convalescent Home, where she remained for throe weeks. "After this she went back to school; but the St. Vitus' dance returning, she was sent to Weston-super-Mare for a month. Again she went back to school, but after a time was worse than ever. The matron sent Brid- get home, saying they could not possibly keep her. "Having read in newspapers of many cares by Dr. Williams' pink pills for pale people, I decided to let Bridget try them. A remark- able change soon took place. After the first box she was mttcdi better. She took a second box, and part of a third, and by that time was quite cuied. She is now back at school, bonnier and brighter than ever, as healthy as any child in the school. It was whilst; my daughter was re-gaining her strength that the St. Vitus' djazoe gradually left her. She has never bad a day's illness since. As t I felt tired and worn out myself I finished my daughter's third box of pills, and they did me great good. I could work twice as well after them." Mrs. Barnett, who said that she was delighted for tiheeo facts to be published, lives at 19, St. George's-road, Brandon-hill, Bristol. Dr. Williams' pink pills for pale people have cured other nervous disorders too, including paralysis, locomotor ataxy, and general breakdown. For anaemia, con- sumption, indigestion, rheumatism, and all disorders arising from poor or bad blood, and for all the troubles that ladies suffer in silence they are unrivalled. A box will be sent post free for two shillings and ninepence by Dr. Willis I medicine co., Holborn-via- duct, London. But they can be had at all medicine shops if purchasers will take care to see the full name (seven words) on the package. L460

St. larf-str Cardiff j9 EVBRY woman has ber dark days-days which are filled with aches and pains and depres- sion. Days when work is friends bore, chil- dren become a nui. sanm, and life itself dark and dreary. Such days are common-but not unavoidable. When a woman is in this of hopeless- ness, and misery, it is a sign that she has fallen a victim to one or other of thœe ailments and dis- °L.. >rdcn to which a woman's constitu-  sign that she needs something whIch wIll tone up her system, rest oro lost vitality, and impart vigour, energy, and strength. Wen everywherefind that thi is exactly '.i" what Bile Beans do. They act dIrect1y on the  digestive system, and  the derangements of these organs, whIch cause headache, constipation, piles, dizzi- ness, indigestion, wind, and a host of otherailments. Bile Beans are mild in their action, purely vegetable, suitable for the most delicate constitution, easy to take, and ùo not ft create a custom of medicine-taking. I Dark Days Brightened. il Bile Beans banished the dark days of suffering from the life of Mrs. fl Breese, of 33, Thomas-street, Crewe. "For a long time," she says, "I « had indigestion, and aches, and pains, and depression in conse- 9 qnence. Some days I was nearly driven off my head by acute pains II after food. One night I was in such agony that I thought I was on fl fl the eve of my death. I isuffered acutely from pains in the chest, and fl HJ my shoulder blades felt as though they would snap. To walk about fl fl the house was torture, so violent were the pains in my head and fl body. At last I became so weak fl fl and wasted that I could scarcely move, and for some days lay in bed helpless. A doctor who was Nf  8H called in said I had most acute ? 0&mF?!t)<?SNN)B?ea?M?)? ? n indigestion. Hia treatment proving  unavailing, another medical man 8a  H was called in with no better result. ttg At last a neighbour persuaded j n me to try Bile Beans. I did so, fl ,and persevered with them. From fl the first I began to make progress, and in a short time my strength fl was restored, and instead of being a weakly invalid, I felt able to do fl almost anything. I can now o my housework with renewed energy fl and strength, and am quite restored to health. It is some considerable fl time since I was cured, and I have had no return of any of my old Eg ailments; so that it is evident my cure is a permanent one." Ji. Rheumatism AN OBSTINATE CASE CURED. fl The most effective means of preventing the inroad of rheumatism, fl fl and of driving out the painful disease wherever it has taken a I Bj hold, has been proved beyond question to be a course of Bile Beans. 9 fl How this wonderful medicine acts in such cases is clearly indicated fl fl by the hundreds of voluntary letters of thanks sent to the firm. Of fl fl these the statement of Mrs. Selina Davis, of 214, Oak-street, Abing- I9 9 don, Berks, is a fair specimen. jf The pains became almost unbearable." Mrs, Davis, in the 9 coarse of an interview 9 with a reporter of the 9 Abingdon Herald," 9 said: I I am forty years 9 of age. I began to 9 suffer from rheumatism ra about three years ago. 9 I had pains across the I back, weighing down |3 symptoms, and great 9 weariness not con- 9 stantly present, but fl intermittent. These E sensations 'became gradually more con- fl stant and harder to J bear, until I had | scarcely power to crawl I about, and I was 1 obliged to give up the 9 occasional work I had I as a laundry woman. j Two years ago the fl pains in the back and fl about the loins be-me fl almost unbearable. In fl October last year came a, crisis; I was rendered completely helpless by acute Hj rbeunnatism. By thp doctor's advice I went in to the Cottage Hospital, where H I remained under treatment for nine weeks. On returning I was confined to ■ my bed again for seven weeks. I read in Lloyd's News' a description of the H good work Bile Beans were doing. This induced me to obtain a supply. By fl j following the directions given for their use I improved in health from day to ■ day. After a little while I regained the use of my iimbs, and after that my B progress was rapid. For some months now I have been able to resume my H ordinary life and work, ano am altogether a different person from what I was H during the last few years. A course of Bile Beans, and Bile Beans alone, cured g me.
