laying of sewer pipes upon at least
one of our principal streets. The time
is ripe for something to be done ln that
line. It has been put off from year to
year, and every sort of makeshift re
sorted to to dispose of the surface
water, the result being that a lot of
money has been expended and the
trouble Is nearly as bad as at the begin
ning. The offensive accumulations In
cesspools are ulso growing worse each
year, and humanity calls for some
thing to be done, and that very soon.

WELSH NEWS NOTES.
Steps aro being tuken to erect a monu
ment In memory of Llewelyn, the last in
dependent prince of Wules. The name of
the heroic Llewelyn recalls to mind the
days of Uwalia's freedom and Independ
ence before the brutal onslaught of the
tribes who made up what Is now known as
England proper. England and Wales
were at that time nations with separate
princes, but "might prevailed against
right" and now after an Interval of 500
years the descendants of tho English
metropolis combine with the sons of
Wales In paying tribute to the last of the
Welsh princes. Lord Bute, Lord Ken
yon and other nobilities of Eng
lish extraction, are taking a lead
ing Interest In the question both by
their presence at the meetings and by
their contributions.
The overdraft of tho Pontypridd eis

"Bear Sirs: I wish to testify to the great
Value of Hood's Sarsaparilla. For some time I
had been troubled with scrofula, which early
last winter assumed a very bad form.
Sores Appeared on My Face
and hands and gradually Increased ln uumber
until they readied to my shoulder. The doctors
said It was tho worst caso of scrofula they ever
saw and also went so fur as to say It was In
curable. I tried ointments and oilier remedies
but to no avail. A friend recommended Hood's
Hood's Cures
Sarsaparilla, and although I was completely dis
couraged, as a last chance I resolved to give it a
trial. After taklnn one bottle I noticed the sores
had commenced to heal. After the sixth bottle
They Were All Healed.
I continued to take It, however, until I had used
nine bottles, and now I am perfectly well."
