I Chest Pains, -II Sore Ttiroaf. | Sore Tbroat. I 1 A good old-fashioned remed?- fi for sore throat and pains in I the chest is Sloan's Liniment. I However severe the pain may I be a few drops of Sloan's will I stop it at once. Mr. H. R. Head, 328, Markhouse Road, Wal- g H thamstow, writes:—"Last winter my wife S caught a very bad cold. She underwent treat- Xj ment but became worse until she developed E bronchitis and had to take to her bed. After B using Sloan's Liniment for about a fortnight, ■ she was able to continue her household duties I H and is now in perfect health. I myself had a H very sore throat some time ago, and used your B H liniment with equally successful results." J SIOAN'S LINIMENT i KILLS PAIN INSTANTLY. i It is also an excellent remedy for h| rheumatism, sciatica, neuralgia, I; sprains and bruises. It goes to the very root of the pain, warms and soothes the affect- 1L VSmHU ed nerve centres P- and gives comfort and ease at once. 5oM ? <tH C;!?ttM<! J?& <??

WON ON A FOUL.
WON ON A FOUL. THE OFFiOiAL VEHúlGT IN SWANSEA COHTtST. I In view of the doubt which exists m'er Saturday night's light at Swansea between Jimmy elsli and Tommy Phil- Jips, the following quoia-tion from the Sportsman the paper whose referee adjudicated-is of interest. The pro- nouncement that dsh won on a foul can be taken as official. "Hoth contestants (says the writer), claimed many partisans, with the result that the Drill Hall was very extensively patronised. The bout fulfilled expecta- tions for eight rounds—in the ninth it had an abrupt ending. Up to a point it was fast and excellently contested; there was not much to choose, while the variety of it made special appeal to stu- dents of style. Phillips has done some work with Jim Driscoll and has de- veloped a line, straight, jab; Welsh, a believer in in-fighting, benefited from hints and experience gained with the light-weight champion, Fred Welsh. All went well until the ninth round, when Phillips struck his opponent be- low the belc, a foul. Welsh was com- pletely doubled up. "The blow did not appear to be de- liberate, but as it quite incapacitated Welsh here was no other verdict but disqualiifcation for Phillips, and the award of the purse to the Britonferry youth. It was unfortunate, as up to that stage Phillips, if anything, held a slight lead, mainly due to his scoring I' left.

BENT TINPLATES. I
BENT TINPLATES. I STRIKE NARROWLY AVERTED AT NEATH WORKS. ———— A strike was narrowly averted at the Eagle Tinworks, Neath, on Friday last, when a disagreement occurred between some men and boys. A number of tin- sheets accidentally fell over and became Ilent, and required le-rolling, but the men blamed each other for being the ause of the damage. When instructed "y the foreman to put them right one of the men declined to do so, and was suspended. There was an immediate stoppage, and a danger of the order—which was an important one-being cancelled. Eventually Mr. Tom Griffiths, secretary of the men's organisation, was called. and after assisting in putting the plates right himself, the men resumed work.
INEURALGIA AND -HEADACHE.I
NEURALGIA AND HEADACHE. INSTANTLY RELIEVED BY A FREE PRESCRIPTION. From Health Notes I publicly give pu b jl clv give the following prescription which cured me of chronic neuralgia and headache, in the hope that some poor sufferer may benefit by it: Go to the nearest chemist's shop and get 60 grains of Kephaldol in tablet form. Take two tablets at once, which will give instant relief, and one can be taken each hour till cured. 1 was surprised at the cure gained in such a simple way. I understand the prescription came originally from a famous specialist in nerve pains. Some of my friends suffering from Neuritis, Sciatica, Lumbago, Rheumatism, and Influenza tell me it has done just as much for them, and that they would not be without it. I guarantee it will knock these pains every time. It has never failed me."

PIMPLES SPREAD ON FACE. I 20, Frederick St., Bradford, Yorks, Eng. Some two years ago I broke out down the side of my face with some pimples. They got worse, and they spread down the side of my face. 1 could not sleep at night for itching and scratching, and also got so I would not go out as J was a very had sight to look at. It spread to my head and the hair began to la 11 off my head. I was told it was eczema. 1 commenced to try some salves and ointment but found that they did not do me any good but I got worse. I happened to see an advertisement about Cuticura Soap and Ointment so I thought that I would try them. Be- Co d..J fore I had used, one set I was nearly cured.

I PRAISE FOR ERIN.I
PRAISE FOR ERIN. I ASTONISHING DISPLAY OF IRISH FORWARDS AGAINST WALES. Below are given a few Press opinions on the match between Wales and Ire- land at S.wansea. Says the London "Daily News and Leader":— "Next, perhaps, to the disciplined rush of the Scottish pack there is noth- ing so terrifying as the advance of an excitable, reckless Irish vanguard. Some of my Welsh friends affected to be rather disappointed with the result, and found fault with the Welsh back division Well, in my opinion, the Welsh halves and threes did splendidly. They scored three delightful tries by almost perfect passing, and managed to stave off some of the hottest assaults imaginable. What more could be needed I cannot say, but I feel sure that Eng- land, who have won two games in Ire- land and Wales this season, would have beaten neither of the teams that turned out at Swansea. Ireland deserved a better fate for their plucky fight, and Wales deserved to win because of their superior skill in attack. Bancroft's Wonderful Skill. "All things considered, Wales did well to win, but the forwards were hardly so effective as in previous game-so Davies, Stephens, Uzzell and Andrews were the pick. The Welsh halves were excellent, although their passing occasionally failed before the quick breaking-up of the Irish pack. Clem Lewis is a fine class player, with that alert, nimble intelligence which has been so prominently dis- played by his predecessors in the Welsh national side. Jones gave a fine display at centre, but Geen was hardly impressive. The wings justified their places, and Bancroft has suffered no diminution of his wonderful skill at full-back.—"Daily Chronicle." Irish Tradition. For the first time this season Ire- land's pack gave a display worthy of the best traditions of Irish forwam play. Starting off with splendid dash, they maintained a tremendous pace for the whole of the first half. They scrummaged well and broke up quickly, dribbled skilfully, and tackled with de- lightful vigour. It broke up the Welshmen's combination, and could the pack, on change of ends, have con- trolled the game to the same extent, Ireland would probably have won.- "Daily Express." The Faults of Wales. Ireland have something of a knacfe of playing well at Swansea. They won the first time they played there—that, by the way, was long ago-then in 1901 they morally triumphed, though Wales were credited with 10 points to 9. A gross mistake by the referee gave the Principality the chance to score a try which never should have been allowed, and that try converted provided Wales with the one point margin. Since then the Irishmen have played well. but have thrice failed on the St. Helen's pitch. Last Saturday they were beaten in a queer sort of match by a matter of three points. Wales scored 3 goals 1 try (1ö points) to 3 goals (13 points). Now the first in- ference of the reader may naturally be that there was a little between %he teams as the score might suggest. There really was not. It may seem churlish to say so after Ireland's re- markably plucky performance, but they owed all their points to the faults of Wales rather than to their own skill.- "Athletic News."

A POOLING SCHEME. I
A POOLING SCHEME. I SKETTY SOCIETIES COME TO TERMS WITH DOCTORS. In Saturday's issue a local (,11-1 temporary stated that negotiations ■ which are at present proceeding be- tween the combined Friendly So,-iies at Sketty and Doctors F. E. Perkins and E. T. Morgan, had been broken loff. and that it had been decided to form a Medical Aid Society. As it was understood in the distnes that matters were proceeding satis- factorily to both parties, a "Leader" representative interviewed Mr. J. H. Morgan, the secretary of the combined j Friendly Societies. He learned that the report was abso- |j lutely incorrect, and further that both the Friendly Societies and the doctors were indignant, as both sides were working hard and amicably towards an agreement. The sole question between tho parties at Sketty is the meoicai attention for dependents of insured persons, and Mr. Morgan said that a pooling scheme bad been put forward bv the combined Societies, and which has been accepted by te doctors. The terms in general under the scheme have been arranged, and practically all that remains at present is the draft- ing of the combined committee repre- senting each society to administer same. It is underwood that fI pooling scheme does nor in any way violate the of honour set up by the Medical Association, and by the various socie- ties it is considered quite workable. A meeting is to be held shortly, when matters are expected to be finally settled.

-TRANSFORMED -SWANSEA.
TRANSFORMED SWANSEA. ABERTAWE AS IT WOULD APPEAR II FRANCE. Mons. I'. Le liars (Swansea) very kindly gave his services to fill a gap in tiie series of free lectures on Saturday evening, at the Public Library, dealing I w en more ReooilectJons and IZVM"- srons or John Bail and J acquets iion- j umnine." Mr. H. A. Chapman pre- Mons. Le Bars, at the outset asked his audience to imagine that a trans- formation had taken place in Swansea m a single night, and that it was now a French town, and then show-ed the va^t differences to be found in almost ev~eryth;ng. The separate houses were now flats, and 'instead of there being a West-end the distinction in class would be ionnd in the house itself, the higher one lived, the lower in class did one become. The curt morning nod was no longer in vogue, hat raising was the fashion—another change from Swansea to a French town. One tht,,ng said the lecturer, would however not w thought an improvement, as the pro- tessional and shopkeeping classes would now start work at about eight in tlJui niorning, an unearthly hour Swansea j people would say. I The French public servant was next shown to bo not a Civil servant, as though out 01 odice hours he was a gentleman, with the putting on ol his ottice coat he also put on office manners. In discussing the French Press, the lecturer said that great differences had taken place during the past ten years or 00) and pointed out that sport and football was very little reported then, now it was the same as the English press, much sport and toot- bail. The lecturer then dwlt with the womanhood of France, making no com- parisons, but stating that the French mother and daughter were intensely patriotic. brimful of hiimour The lecture was brimful of humour and witty sayings, and judging by the continual npples oi laughter, t,Lorougnly I enjoyed by the large audience present.

At the Swansea Police Court to-day, Daniel O'Connor and his mother, Mar- garet O'Connor, were charged on re- mand with assaulting and wounding Lucy llidmore with intent to do griev- ous bodily harm. The complaint was the mother-in-law of the male defendant, aud according to her evidence, he was on the night in question (JVIarcti 1) ander the inhuence of drink. There had been a quarrel between husband <nid wife, and the com- plai.iait had separated them, and was thereupon struck a number of blows by the male defendant, causing the com- plainant to fall into a coalhou&e.

iLONC STANDING DISPUTEI
LONC STANDING DISPUTE AMICABLE SETTLEMENT AT CAPE COPPER WORKS. A short while ago references were made in the "Leader" to the old- standing dispute between the Cupola men and the management at the Cape Copper Works, and to the prospects of an early settlement. We are pleased to state that as a result of a conference on Friday last between Mr. Whitley, the manager and the committee of the works, that arangements were made to start on the new basis on last Sunday night's shift. For some two years the men had been dissatisfied with their earnings, conse- quent on the change from a 12-hours shift to an 8-hours shift, granted to them at their own request by the man- agement. The new agreement means that the men standing before the fur- naces will get more adequate payment for the 8-hours shift, but this could not be brought about except by doing away with the employment at this particular work of about 24 boys and about half-a- dozen men. The management and the committee were of the opinion that the work was not suitable for boys of tender age. So this arrangement was come to on an undertaking by the management that they would be given other and more suitable employment. This applies also to the men. Several of them have al- ready been given alternative employ- ment. It is believed the agreement come to will form the basis of a lasting settlement, and that things will now work smoothly.
