COST OF PAUPERS. TO THE EDITOR. Sir,—Your correspondent, J>ir..). Watson, on the above said he was not seriously concerned in attacking the Chester Guardians, but he is con- cerned to shew your readers the senseless waste (,f money and terrible wasting of useful lives in those hideous institutions, the workhouses. He says a few weeks ago in your journal you shewed that 500 paupers in Chester Union cost £ 23,000 or about 18s. per head per week. If anycnc making that statement or Mr. Watson had borrowed a Year Book, ho would find it to be a mistake. As he is wishful your readers should know the truth, I will help him. The total money spent by the Board in 1905 was £ 32,000. Nearly £ 20,000 of that was paid in out-relief, lunatic, vaccination, certified schools, county and police rates, collec. tion of rates, hospital and assessment com- mittee, &c., only leaving under £ 12tX)0 to main- tain the workhouse, four children's homes, inmate3 and officers, also relieving 12,000 tramps. Now, Mr. Watson suggests tho guardians by doing the baking, shoemaking and tailoring, could save a great deal to the ratepayers. That is all done, as far as [jossible at present. I am afraid Mr. Watson's History of Henry VIII. and Queen Elizabeth is better than that of Chester Union for 1906. Perhaps your readers would like to know the facts. On May 31st, 1906, there were 438 inmates. as follows :-126 in hospital, nearly all hopeless 16 children, 70 imbeciles, 20 infants, in the body 91 female adults and 112 male adults. Of the 94 females 31 are over 70 years, 25 are over GO years, 8 ordered to take their discharge. The remainder were made up of deserted and weak-minded cripples, deaf and dumb, and women with ohil dren. Of the 112 males 40 are over 70 years, 47 are over 60 years, 11 ordered to take their dis- charge. The remainder are weak-minded cripples, deaf, subject to fits, etc. Now, sir, I leave it with your readers if Mr- Watson has found a solution.— Y ours respect- fully, T. NIXON.

Dear Sire,I have derived such remarkable benefit from Oapsuloida that it gives me great pleasure to recommend them. Some months ago through mental worry my nerves gave way, and I became very much run do-D. while my hair came cut in combfnls. As a result of taking Capsuloids for several months my bair is four inches louger and most healthy aud glossy in appeirsnch, while I feel fit to do or dare anything. My experience has confirmed your statement thai. the only leal cure for the hair is Capsuloies.-Yours faithfully, (Mas.) E. BISHOP.  :i,   'I? ?..??  fA PC wi* m LOOK AT THIS PICTURE OF A GROWING HAIR GREATLY MAGNIFIED, and learn how your hair grows, why it becomes pre- maturely grey. why it does not grow well, and why it falls out. The whole hair is produced by the multipli- cation of those growing cells, which form the lower end of the hair, and which lie directly over the little blood vessels from which they take their nourishment. There is no growth in the hair above that point. The harmful germs in the cells so affect them, that the hair becomes loose or prematurely grey. Those germs can only be reached and killed through the blood. and the only remedy which will do it, and then restore the hair, is CAPSULOIDS. Take Two Capsuloids with each meal three times daily.

SCALP DISEASE   & EHEM?URE!! Suffered More Than Six Months with Scalp and was Fast Losing His Hair — A Member of Family Afflicted with Eczema on Hands. TWO COMPLETE CURES BY CUTICURA REMEDIES "I have great pleasure in giving particulars of two complete cures de- rived from the use of the Cuticura Remedies. "In my own case, for more than six months was suffering from disorder on my ecalp and in consequence was fast losing my hair. I was advised to give Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment a trial, which I luckily did. I adopted the treatment prescribed and at the end of one month was completely cured. This was at the beginning of 1905. Since  that time my head has been restored to f its nomuJ state, and no further out- break has occurred, and whenever I have had the opportunity I always BBoamxgihad the Cuticura Remedies. "A member of our family periodically Buffered icr nearly ten years from dry eezemalon the hands. The fingers and palms split and cracked everywhere at the slightest movement. At such periods they were most painful as well as ouitc useless, and gloves were always obliged to be worn. Every possible remedy was tried, besides medical advice, blood mixtures, ointment, soaps, etc., some of which gave slight relief for a time, but never permanently. Fin- ally, she was advised to try Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment, which we are thankful to say effected a complete cure, aa she has had no recurrence of the trouble for the last three years. We are most happy to testify to the efficacy of the Cuticura Remedies in similar cases. You are at perfect liberty to make use of above testimonials. Edward Allen, 65 Denmark Road, South Norwood, S.

CAAIBRIDGES VICTORY. I -— • The great international boat-race on the Thames on Saturday ended as the experts had expected. Cambridge beat Harvard easily after I* noteworthy struggle by a distance of two lengths. Cambridge won the toss, and naturally ohose tho Surrey station. There was not much wind,. and the tide was not particularly strong, but the conditions of the weather were perfect, and huge crowds lined either bank over the total Length of the course. The start also was an exoelksnt one, but it ia said that Harvard went off at too slow a pace, and only led for three strokes, and that ever aftorwards Cam- bridge had victory completely within their grasp. At all events, they led throughout at a diatanoe that varied at tintes from one and a half to three lengths, and although Harvard rowed with dogged determination and mado several notable spurts to overhaul their opponents, and Particularly one magnificent effort towarcb the finreh of the struggle, the issue was never seri- OUsly in doubt. Harvard found that they could Quicken their stroke, but they could not pro- portionately inoroaso their pace. After passing the winning post, the Harvard captain said they had done their beat, but they had been beaten by a better crew.

ELLESMERE PORT'S NEW CHAPEL. I =.——&.—— LAYING OF FOUNDATION-STONES, I MR. LEVER ON PRACTICAL RELIGION. Wednesday was a red-letter day to the Wes- ley ana of Ellosmeio Port, for on that day the foundation-stones were laid of their new chapel. Wo shall ha.ve to hark back to the lough times of 16 years ago, when tho Manchester Ship Canal was in course of construction, to find the humble bogMining of any permanently lecog- nised Wesleyan body at this port. The Navvies' Mission erected a wooden building in Queen- atroot, where services wore held specially for the navvies and families, and this budding was eventually leased to a few—they could then be numbered on one's fingers-staunch followers ot John Wesley, who have throughout maintained their place of worsh p at considerable soif- saerifioe. It is all the more praiseworthy when it ia remembeied that in most cases they were working-people, who could at limes iii-afford the expense inseparable from such an under- taking. One of the founders remarked:—"We have had a humble beginning; we have seen our children grow up ajid are more than pleased to see them follow in their fat lie is' footsteps, until to-day we have a good congregation and have outgrown cur old and somewhat delap da- ted quarters, and are well on with the building of our new ohapel. Quietiy and zite-adliy we have persevered with collections for the past three years, culminating in a garden party on July 27th at Mr. Richard Jones's, Wesley Cottage, and the necessary funds for oomniencernent were secured." There was a largo attendance on Wednesday, w at 3.30 the oexomony oom.menced with the singing of the hymn "0 Lord of Hosta, fol- lowed by a prayer by the Rev. Mr. Worm well. Mr. W. H. Lover, who presided, and who was accompanied by Mis. Lever, said: It gives Mrs. wvur and myself very great pleasure to be here on this occasion, which may be correctly termed an historical ono, for, after all, thecvent of founding another centre for Christianity, another centre for good things, must be an historical one wherever it be. Wo cannot build too many chapels and churches, although we do not. all agree aa to what exactly is Christianity. I have come from the talking shop, where we have been talking for six months as to what Christianity is, and we are no nearer now than when wo started. Wo can, however, agree to this, that every chapel and church, whatever denomination it may belong to, has aims in the right direction, and cannot be to the detriment of any other denomination. Wo all work for one cause, and if we do make a mistake in con- nection with our ohurohes and chapels, it is perhapa that we feel, or act as if wo felt, that they have less to do with our daily lives than they really have. We all belong to one great family, and we must, through our churches and chapels, take a stronger interest in the daily life of the people. I know there is an impres- sion that religion and politics are apart, but I have never agreed with that. Wilet) I read the account of the Life of Christ I saw Ho said, "Render unto Cwsar tli-c things that, am Cseaar's, and unto God the things that are God's," and I think if I put the correct inteipre- tation on that Christ meant we should have the well-bong of every human being at heart. These aio the things that belong to Ceesar. and if we do that and take an interest in everything that tends to clevata) and ra the position of our fellow-men and women in the world, then I think there is a new era for churches and chapels, and wo shall not have enough to hold all the people who want to go. The church and chapel that existed only for sex-vices on Sunday did not half understand its duties. It was the very basis of Christianity that chinches and chapols had to do with the daily life of the pocoph In Parliament there was a body of men who were determ'ned to tako a strong interest in everything that would help to advanco the welfare of their fellow-HKin. and he wished the churches and chapels would also take a strong interest in tho direction. IX) not let them be constantly wiangling about Education Bills and rolig-iotis differonees. 'lino real eduoation was the education of the children in the direc- tion of fitting aud preparing them, for the battle of life, and the question of a little more or a little less of any ono creed or belief was not worth the time they had given to it in this Par- liament, when there weie so many other im- portant questions pressing for settlement. Once let them get careless about the position of the men who did tho work of this country, the con- ditions they lived under, whether their children were reasonably educated, whether the people were properly housed, and had a reasonable amount of recreation, and a proper amount of I)ay-if they neglected these things, however many chapels they built, they would be neglect- ing the basis oil which this kingdom had got to rest, as a nation. Unless they welded these im- portant aims together to raise the spiritual life and the material life, they might stop that ceremony there and then, and lay no foundation- stones. If they wero deteimined to weld these aiulIs together and carry their religion into prac- tice in their daily life, then he was confident that England ha.d a brighter future before her than any other nation. (Applause.) Stones were then laid with the usual formula by the following:—Mr. Moffatt, of Birming- ham, on behalf of Mrs. G. S. Brameld (presen- ted with book by Mr. Wheatley); Mrs. Edward Gaiter (book presented by Mrs. Wormwcll) Mrs. Lover, on behalf of Mrs. Johnson (book oresented); Mrs. R. Jones (book presented by Mrs. Simpson); Miss E. Moffatt, of Birmng- ha.m (book presented by the Rev. g. Worm- well) and Mr. J. S, Moss (book presented by Mrs. Mills). Afterwards, during the singing of another hymn, the. offerings were taken. The Rev. G. Worm well apologised, for the absence of Mr. W. T. Davic-s, of Chester, who wrote that circumstances prevented h.s being present, and enclosed a cheque for £ 15. 'ihis. together with thoO ofteings at the meeting and £10 promised by the ai-chitcet, (Mr. Duvies), brought up a total of £ 115. 10s. Id. The Rev. T. Garland Hartley said it had been his lot to attend many such functions in various parts of the country, but he did not remember one where everything had gone more smoothlv thin th:lf;. He congratulated them on the admirable arrangements that had been made and the splendid way in which they had been carried out. He rejoiced to associate himself with what Mr. Lever had said with regard to the airre of denominations. Mr. J. S. Moss proposed, and the Rev. G. WormweU second.ed, a vote of thanks to Mr. Lerver. Mr. Lever responded.. and this brought the first part of the proceedings to a close. At five o'clock tea was served, and at 6.30 a general meeting, which was well attended, was ho1. Mr. R. Cha.llinor took the chair, and some capi- tal addresses were given by the Rev. T. Galland Hartley and others.

SWIMMING GALA.—The Chester Swimming Club held another gala in the City Baths on Monday evening. The attendance was small, and it is to be regretted that the club, who do so much to foster this useful art in Chester, are not more largely supported by the public. A successful programme of events was gone through. The interests of the youths of the city centred in the heats of the competition for the Bradley Challenge Shield, the successful swimmers being aa follows:—First heat: 1, G. Gregg (the College); 2, A. Hassall (St. Wer- burgh's.) Seoond heat: 1, II. Crane (St. Werburgh's); 2. A. Rose (St. Paul's). Third heat: 1, T. Lloyd (St. Werburgh's); 2, E. Williams (Grosvenor St. John's). Fourth heat: 1, F. Beatty (St. Werburgh's); 2. T. Marriatt (Growvenor St. John's). Miss Moody, daughter of the baths superintendent, delighted the on- lookere with an exhibition of ornamental swimming. Afterwards a league polo match was played between teams representing Chester and Everton. The Cestriana played a capital game. They won the toefl, and in the initial half defended the deep end. They had the best | of the opening stages, and shots rained in on the visiting custodian, who brought off some j excellent saves. He was, however, defeated by W. Edwards. Shortly afterwards Everton j equalise d from a breaka.way, but before the I interval Tiddy gave Chester the lead from a pass by White. The second half W88 altogether in favour of the Cestriana, who added four more I goals, three being secured by W. Edwards and the fourth by Dutton. Chester thus won com- fortably by six goals to one..

VANITY FAIR. I A T MEN OF THE DAY. I —From "Vanity lair. I MR. BERNARD DILLON. The chief Irish exports to England arc I generals* hunters an d jockeys. One of the best of the last-named is that cheery little man, Bernard Dillon. He was born at Tralee, co. Kerry, on September 7th, 1831. His father was himself a trainer, and the boy was brought up I among horses. He was apprenticed to Mr. W. B. Purefoy before he waa ten, and rode hia first I winner before he was fourteen. Dillon's successes have been numerous; but in tho eyes of the racing public he will always be a--«ociated with the dual victories of Ypsilanti in the Kempton Park Jubilee Stakes of 1903-4. Bought from the Americans out of a selling race, the son of Galore and Stefanette brought oil a coup in the first-mentioned year, and fol- lowed this up by a.nnexing the popular event in the succeeding year, carrying the substantial impost of 9st. 5ib. As all racing men know, a very determined jockey is required to pilot a horse sent from England to take his chance in a raco on French soil. It was for this reason that Major Eustaco Loder selected Dillon to ride Spearmint in the Grand Prix de Paris. How he won is a matter of racing history. Playing a waiting game till a third of the distance had been traversed, he gave our Derby winner his head, and despite vigorous challenges landed t.he oon of Carbine home by half a length. When ou duty Dillon presents a sphinx-liko expression to the curious; oil duty he can un- bend. Ho means to ride under National Hunt Rules this season. He is an earnest cricketer. He is called Bernard, or—for short-Ben. JEHU JUNIOR. I LORD CHARLES BERESFORD. I Although no official announcement has yet been made on the subject, it is more or lore an open secret that Admiral Lord Charles Beroaford will assume the command of the Channel Fleet when the dititingui",hcd offioer who now holds tho most important post relinquishes it in the early spring- of 1907. There is no public man in tho British Isles who ia more genuinely popular than Admiral Beresford; but, at the same time, it is very doubtful whether his real capacity and true disposition are generally understood. Most of his countrymen look upon him as the typo of the genuine dashing sailor, ready to face any emei-gency, and possessed of t,hat splendid courage which is traditionally held to be the distinguishing feature of the Anglo- Saxon and Celtic races. This view of his char- acter ia quite correct; but much more lies behind. He. is in all respects a far more seriou j- rriindod man, and a deeper thinker and harder worker than his lively manner and good- humoured, half-bantering conversation would lead tho ordinary observer to credit. He is sixty years of age, and forty-seven of tho:-o years have been spent by him in unceasing work cither in the Navy or the House of Commons. j THE DUFFERS' MILE. I The golfers who are members of the go.f clubs I round London—there is a distinction here—aro beginning to despair of their future. On some links there is an impassa on Saturdays and Sundays owing to the constant influx of men who have paid their subscription in order to learn the game. It will become a question to bo considered before long whether entrance examinations should not be instituted. A man desiring to take his place at a crowded first tee ought at least to give the committee of the club some assurance that he may be expected to move forward after a limited number of efforts to play the air. In no other sjjort. or game are incompetent, self-asc-ertive impostors to be found comparable to the self-styled "golfers'' of the suburban links. If the preliminary examination was introduced, it need not M'ow that candidates should be rejected if they proved themselves incapable of taking their proper places on a links. There is room on almost every course for a duffers' mile, to i which they should be confined until they had mastered the necessary progressive skill. I

IIUNTING. I 4 NORTH CHESHIRE. I On Saturday this pack had their first visit to tho Peckfcrton Hills, and for several hours hounds were kept hard at work with first one fox and then another. From Raw Head foxes were pushed over the Gap towards Peckforton Castle. After more than four hours' hunting hounds had to return home without blood. On Monday the same pack met at Oulton Park, the residence of Sir Philip Grey-Egerton, who was unable to ba present,, but was repre- sented by his eldest son. Hounds found several cubs in the Druids-walk. One went over the Common towards the Tarporley-road. Hounds ran with a fine scont, but the fox, finding they were too near his brush returned back to the Druids. Here, I think, hounds got on to a I companion, and fcr two hours they were busy with several foxes, on.) being marked to ground. Better luck awaited them from Philo Gome. A leash of foxes were disturbed. Two went away to Page's Wood the other did not like leaving these snug quarters and was killed. Hounds then went on to Tom's Hole. Finding at once they ran over the Common into Oulton and back. Hounds eventually lost their fox near the Tarporley-road. Tuesday's fixture was Delamere House, near Northwich. Hounds found a fox below the house. They ran with a nice scent close to Capt. Higson's, Oakmpre, and into Gill's Gorae, where the fox went to ground. While hounds were baying at the earth another cub came up to enter the same eatth. Hounds, get- ting a view. killed him. From Wilson's Moss, near the Abbey Arms, they found a brace. Get- ting on the line of one, they ran a nice pace over the Yeomanry Camp ground, through Hagshoad Wood and into Abbot's Moss, whero the lentainder of the morning was spent. I BLUECAP.

WEAK LUNGS. f1i 'J < I<" a S b:)J Ii í::1 LI Are Unsuspected Evil developed with alasm-sing rapidity. Ppcatrated 5 Racked with Paina Voung gran's Collapse cufae' by DR, liLUfilfij^PIMK PilLS. "I had never suspected that my lungs were not strong, so, when I first felt a sharp pain in my Fide, a kind of stitch, I took little notice, thinking it would quickly vanish." But Mr. Albeit Morris, who residea at 3, Ledbury-mews North, Ledbury-road, Hayawatcr, W., has good reaeon to remember those warnings of approach- ing lung troubles. With this acute pain," he continued, I felt breathless and dreadfully worn out during the day; yet a long night's sleep did not refresh me; and when the pain became worse a doctor was called in. By this time I could breathe only with difficulty, and work was too much for nw; at last I had to take to my bed. Then tho doctor to' ',i me that pleurisy had developed, I wat) racked with pain, and as I lay in bed, scarcely able to turn, parched and living on morse's, of nourishment, it scorned that I' was doomed to suffer without hope of relief. "My mother urged me to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People, for they had cured her of a long-standing complaint. So I yielded to her advice and took the pills; in a short time a slight improvement, was noticeable. The palM were not so acute, and I seemed to have gained strength. The dull heavy feeling of weakness began to leave me, and aa I continued Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, my health gradually improved and the pains vanished. Before long I was about again, ,W,, H !?M? T'? ?"'?- and I ?- SW 6 t.H ? ? 9 turned to my work after  aevenU weeks' absence, iNK aha!R. beaIthyman.Dr P Win?ms' Pink Pdls PilLS had put me on my legs, PILLS I have never hd a return of lung troubles, and I am in better health now than I have ever been before. I am not afraid of a breakdown now that I know what Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will do." Mrs. Morris added her own experience:- "For six years," she said, "I had not been free from i indigestion. It was like a shadow over my life. I had constant headaches with dreadful pains in the stomach, though I didn't eat enough to keep a sparrow alive. I grew pale and thin and weak; sometimes I could scarcely get my breath. When I. took Dr. Williams' Pink Pills the headaches vanished, the pains lessened, and with a few boxes I was quite cured of indigestion." By making rich, good blood with every dose —that is how Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People achieve so many remarkable cures, in- cluding Ansemia, Indigestion. General Weak- ness, Nervous Disorders, Head ac hes, Neuraltria, Rheumatism, Sciatica, St. Vitus' Dance, Paralyse, and women's ills. Of all dealers, but remember that common pills merely coloured pink will never cure you. If in doubt send 2s. 9d. for one box. or 13s. 9d. for six, to the British Depot, 46, Holborn-viaduct, London.

THE LATE JUDGE ROWLANDS. I TO THE EDITOR. I Sir,—In your approciatory "Local Notes" last week you refer to the fact of Judge Rowlands, a Radical, having been appointed by a Con- servative Chancellor (Lord IIalbury) out of friends-hip for a junior once on the same circuit. This action of Lord HaJsbiiry is chaiacter.stio of his generosity. During his long (Jhancel'or- ship he appointed some openly declared Radicals to judgeships. This dVI not please many of his party, but he did not pa«5 over a frioad, es- pecially when such a one might not have the prosperity ho onoo enjoyed. Judge Rowlands had once a good practice, but it had declined, as often such at the Bar unaccountably do. No ono was more surprised than Judge Rowlands when he fcund his application successful. He is reported to have said: "I cannot think why he made me a judge. I am not his side in politics." Vtao two others on this same circuit, after- wards appointed- judges, to whom you refer, are, no doubt, the late Judge Wynne Ffoulkes and Judge Lloyd. 13ofh these appointments, mad a by that celebrated Chancellor, Earl Cairns, justified his great perspioacity. The first-named entirely justified his position, which ho held for 25 yi-ar3, as being one of the most careful lawyers and having a thorough know- ledge of commercial law. The latter is happily with u-s, though retired, after 31 years as a judge of County Courts. His record is perhaps that of the finest commonso:vso judge the Chester and Noith Wales Circuit ever had. Judge Row- lands succeeded to Judge Ffoulkes. but only for a brief five years, -1 am, your obedient ser- I vant, x. I
