Dear Sir,â€"By this time I have ceased playing the role of an Irishâ€" man, and am doing my best to break my jaw with the Welsh vocabulary in ‘North Wales. Have you ever thought of Wales as anything other than a part of Engâ€" land? I never did before I came here, but I am doing a lot of thinking that way just now. Have you ever stopâ€" ped to consider that Wales has a hisâ€" tory which goes away back into the hasyâ€" ages, that the Welsh have a country which exceeds anything in the British Isles for beauty and grandeur of romantic and marine scenery, and that the Welshman is quite different from the Englishman in manner, cusâ€" t and temperament! One does not nx to be in Wales an hour to reâ€" alize this as well as many other facts which may supply the contents of this hasty letter. f Mr. Frank Dunham Describes Its Picturesque Scenery.â€" Happenings at the Counâ€" ty Seat, â€" Local and It has been said that you can see more beautiful and sublime scenery in one mile in Wales than you can in 2¢ miles in Scotland. Indeed it would be difficult to find anything to surâ€" pass the grandeur of the Snowdonian range of hills and to look down the ‘"‘steep of Snowdon‘s shaggy side" is a sight to impress one for, a _ lifeâ€" time. Carnarvonshire, in addition to possessing the largest slate quarries on earth, has innumerable little watâ€" erfalls and fairy dells over which the late William Gladstone went into rapâ€" tures and declaredâ€" this to be the mostâ€" beautiful spot in the worid. Llandudno, a fashionable watcring place on the north shore, is said to be worthy of the name of the Naples of Wales, on account of its magnitâ€" cent harbor. The Menai Straits, which make Anglesey an island, ai.d along whose banks are picturesque villages, ancient castles and ruins â€" uf the old Roman days, has been liker:â€" ed to the River Rhine. So much for the scenery. Now for the antiquities. The town of Carnarâ€" von (Segontium) was the terminus of the old Watling street which ran from London through Chestershire. There, as well as at Conway, may still be scen the wall which surrounded the old Roman towns. A wall of solid masonry,â€"15 feet thick, â€"might well be reckoned as a safe defence in the days before. 11 inch cannon were thought of. The remains of old Roman strong holds and camps may be seen near the town. The old castles of Beauâ€" maris, Conway and Carnarvon were built by Edward I. in the 13th cenâ€" tury, while he was engaged in the troublesome task of conquering the Welsh princes. These castles are magnificentâ€"structures,â€"the â€"one â€"at Carnarvon being the largest and conâ€" Aaining the room where it is said the !first Prince of Wales was born. The people of Wales are very patâ€" riotic and they tell many legends . of the exploits of their valiant princes. They still, retain their native tongue, which they claim to be the key to all language. I find it on the whole raâ€" ther a difficult key to handle. â€"It is truly remarkable that children and Increasing Among Women, But Sufferers Need Not Despair THE BEST ADVICE IS FREE KIDNEY â€"TROUBLES Of all the discases known, with which the female organism is afflicted, kidney discase is the most fatal, and statistics show that this discase is on the increase among women. Unless early and correct treatment is applied the patient seldom survives when once the disease is fastened upon her. Lydia E. Pinkham‘s Vegetable Compound is the most efficient treatâ€" ment for kidney troubles of women, and is the onl{ medicine especially prepared for this purpose, _ _ _ _ ~ When a woman is troubled with pain or weight in loins, backache, frequent, painful or scalding urination, swelling of limbs or feet, swelling under the eyes. an uncasy, tired fecling in the region of the kidneg's or notices a brickâ€" dust sediment in the urine, she should lose no time in commencing treatment with Lydia E.

Conyers, (h.m’ Mrs. Pinkham gives free advice to women ; address n confidence, Lyna, parents have perfect command of both Weish and English. When _ Weish meets Weish there may not be the proverbial "itug of war," but there is plenty of exercise for the "unruly member in the region of the molar teeth,‘‘ which produces the "Il" sound as found in the word Lianfairâ€" pwllgwyngyligogerychwy radrobwilâ€"llaâ€" ntysiliogogogoch. The Welsh are like Americans in their love for abbreviaâ€" tion and they have cut the above word down to Llanfair P. G. A strong trait of the Weish people is their love for learning. They have three universities. in their little counâ€" try and are about to build another at a cost of £200,000. Bangor, in the north, has six colleges, and trainâ€" ing school as well as the university, and delights in being styled the Athâ€" ens of Wales. Above all, the Welsh are essentialâ€" ly religious, and could teach Canadâ€" ians a few things in the observance of the Sabbath day. An example of this religious tendency is the great revival which is spreading over Wales at the present time. Evan Roberts is now a national hero, and he is everyâ€" where treated as such.â€" His name and history ‘are on every tongue, with few to revile him. â€"The country is flooded with his photographs on post cards and pendants and the framer of pictures has no reason to complain of trade being dull just now. The great ~*missioner,"*as he is called, was born near the town of Llanelly, in South Wales; and at the age of thirteen began work underground as a collier. For thirteen years he prayed and prepared for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon him. He spent Hours before the meeting is schedâ€" wed to commence crowds of people gather and the meeting is soon in full sway. On the platiorm may be seen Americans, Canadians and Chrisâ€" tian workers from the Continent and from Australia,‘who have come to catch the spirit of the revival and spread the flame in their own land. I had the pleasure of shaking hands with a minister from Chatham, Ont., who did his best to introduce me to the revivalist, but failed. over his whole countenance. He alâ€"" ways speaks in Welsh, so I didn‘t unâ€" derstand what l‘w said, but I am told that he expresses some of the purest and most sublime thoughts. He then exhorts his hearers to prayer and personal work, and now and then calls for a song. Soon there are about twenty praying at once in all quarters, others are singing the beauâ€" tiful Welsh hymns in four parts with perfect case and the whole presents a wonderful sight never to be forgotten. I never saw a man so intensely in earnest. He literally agonizes in prayer, and then ‘bursts out in a smile of sunshine when he feels that his prayer is answered. He seems to be a mind reader and some remarigy able stories are told of how ‘"those who came to scoff remained to pray‘" with a flow of oratory which is marâ€" vellous. Young girls and yourng men, unable to control themselves, burst out in spontancous prayer with such beauty of thought and expression that they silence the platform . and make every square foot an amen corâ€" _ner. The mecting is brought to . a ‘closc at sundown, but all through the _night there are bands of people in the ifields and the public squares singing their praiscs. #f markable dream, he began to set Wales aflame. After six months his fame and influence have not abated, and he has faultlessly stood the test of the keenest and‘ cleverest critics, which is â€"something that few public men have been able to do. Fearlessly he has faced noted divines‘and theoâ€" logical students who have helped to swell the crowd to 15,008 people. When Evan Roberts mounts the platform, it is his custom to.sit quietly with his chin resting on his right hand for 30 or 40 minutes and then he rises to speak with a smile :j&briel months in a grammar school then at the age of 26, after a reâ€" The ~revivalist has â€"goneâ€"to the south again for a time, but his work mustâ€" surely have a lasting effect in the north. A register has been kept of the converts, and they now numâ€" ber nearly 100,000. Publicans, prizeâ€" fighters and revilers have become conâ€" verted and parade the streets singing praises to God. This is truly a reâ€" markable. revival and the whole Christian world will turn to | that light which Evan Roberts has caused to shine so brilliantly in the hearts of the Welsh people. 1 know that Berlinites will be interested in this upheaval, and hoping that this letter will increase your interest in the Welsh people, as well, I am, $ Yours faithfully, Berlin lost another of its popâ€" ular young men this week, in the person of Mr. L. R. Clarke, who left on â€" Tuesday.for Fort William, where Messrs. Clarke Bros. have purâ€" chased McCrac‘s drug store, and. of which Mr. Clarke will take charge. Mr. Clarke has been in Berlin for five years and has not only been very sucâ€" cessful in business but has made many friends in this town, who will regret his departure. The store in Berlin will be in charge of Mr. Wm. Clarke, who will be assisted by Mr. (ieo. Morrison, this year‘s gold medâ€" alist and winner of the scholarship at the school of Pharmacy, and a graduate of the drug department of T. Eaton Company of Toronto. his whole countenance. He â€"alâ€" The judicial sale of the property generally known as the Berlin Shirt & Collar Company Block, at the town _ hall Friday, created _ an unusual amount of interest in busiâ€" ness circles, and there was a keen rivalry displayed in the bidding for its ownership. A large crowd . was gathered â€" when Auctioncer J. W. Davey read the description of _ the property and the conditions of sale. When +the auctioneer opened _ the sale, Mr. Geo. Potter opened with $15,000, but Mr. H. L. Janzen ‘nâ€" creased this to $22,000. This sum apâ€" peared to take the windâ€"out of the sails of the other wouldâ€"be bidders, and there was a lull in the circle for a few minutes. The Beriin Shirt and Collar Co. Block ou King St was Sold by Auction for The heads of interested persons got together and then the ball was set going by Mr. C. B. Dunke, who went up to $22,500, and this amount was increased by _ * $500 amâ€" ounts until $25,000 was reached, and then Mr. Dunke halted. ~Auctioneer Davey gave a few more minutes . for the bidders to think and then the amount went up to $25,100. The $100 amount was duplicated by each bidâ€" der until $25,900 was reached, and then Mr. Janzen made it $25,950 and Mr. Dunke increased it to $26,000,. This amount appeared to be the limit, and after five minutes‘ time had been given \‘o those who desired to increase the"amouit, Auctioneer Davey opened the sealed envelope which contained the reserve bid, and then announced that the property was sold to Mr. Dunke. , The property is a yery desirable one, and has a frontage of about 56 feet on King street, on which is erâ€" ected a threeâ€"storey. brick block . of stores, On the ground floor of‘ the block there are three stores at preâ€" sent occupied by George E. Potter, Dunke & Co., and L. J. Winn. _A part of the second floor is occupied as offices. . At the rear of the block and forming a part of it is a thiceâ€" storey brick factory premises, | conâ€" sisting of two parts, one about 75x16 feet and the other about 111x27 feet, at present occupied by W. E. Southâ€" gate & Company. Housckceepers are beginning to be anxious over their fruit supply . for next winter. A large crop of raspâ€" berrics was confidently expected this season, as all indications pointed that way, but so far, there. have been very few berries offered for sale in the town, and those mostly at 10 cents a â€"box, a price which few care to pay. â€" However, raspberriecs are late this year, as is everything else, and it is likely that the supply will be much more plentiful this week. There are very few wild berries this year, it is said. BOUGHT BY ~ Mr. Dunke is to be congratulatedl upon his enterprise in making the purchase. . RASPBERRIESâ€"SCARCE C. B. DUNKE A special meeting of the Sewer Commission . was held on Saturday afternoon at which Engineers Davis and Philip reported favorably on the work that was being done by the pumps installed by the Canada Founâ€" dry Co., at a sewage disposal works in Toronto. The Commission decided to award the contract for the installation of two force pumps, one sludge pump, two motors, at the pumping station at the farm and a generator at the lighting plant, in Berlin, for the sum of $6,700. 5 The wiring and erection of the pumping station will be done by the Commission. The vote on the byâ€"law to raise the sum of $50,000 for the purpose of allowing the new Light Commission to make the necessary additions and improvements to the lighting plant resulted in the measure being carried by a majority of 224.
