THE EVILS OF PAINTING

Believing the above to be true, A. B.

of working the business in Honolulu.
In the first place he has secured the SER

work in the line of plain and decorative
paper-hanging, frcscoing, &C., is up to
the present time unsurpassed, and on
these Islands has never been cqualled.

A FABLE.

A Wolf who had arrived at good
old age and no longer felt able to go out
and play the string-game on the limo
cent and Unconfding, called his Son to
him one day and said ;
"My cantankerous Offspring, 1 am
gre wing old. am stiff in the joints,
troubled with dyspepsia, and no longer
have the sand to go out and tackle any
thing bigger than yearling Lamb,
feel that it is time for me to hang up. y
The Son humbly agreed, and the Old
Wolf continued

stay on Earth"
Excellent idea, Governor-very OK

out behind the house to crack his heels
together and poke himself in the ribs.
That same evening the Old Wolf sat
down for a smoke, but before he had
drawn six whifs from his pipe the Be
loved Son remarked:
"That habit is both disgusting aud ex
uensive, and I'd advise you to quit
The pipe was laid aside, and the Old
Man went to the cupboard to take nip
of Red Eye for his stomaeh's sake.
"And you also want to chop off on

not only costs money, but degrades the
intellect"
The Old Man replaced the bottle with
heartfelt sigh, and humbly inquired
it there was any cold chicken left from
supper.
"Cold Chicken Well, you have got
cheek, and no mistake. If Goldfish ISM

che Father.
"Why, I have 70 objection to yo"r

Then the Venerable Parent fell upon
the Beloved Offspring and made his
heels break his neck, aud flung him out
doors and ever the fence, and gave him
to understand that henceforth he was d
wanderer and horse thief.

WATER ZOE NHNEP.

How many farmers totally neglect
providing water for their locks, ex-
cept in very hot summers, when grass
and everything besides is buried up ?
But there can scarcely be doubt that
pure, fresh water ought always to be
within access to a flock of sheep
whether they want it or not. Most
experienced and observant shepherds
can not always tell when this ought
to be furnished, for some animals may
be iii "a condition to require it and 9th.
ers may not. The only safe rule to
follow. therefore, is never to allow de
privation to be experienced, by pro-
viding water so as to be in ready &C
cess at all times. This is what Mr.
Robert Russell, the successful breeder
Ofsheep III Kent, does. One invarla-
BILE rule which he follows, both in
summer and winter, being never to
allow any animal i'll his farm to go a
single day throughout the year with
out having ready access to two things
pure, fresh water and salt.

Pottsville, in Pennsylvania, is now
said to possess the deepest coal mine in
America. Through its shaft, 1876
feet in depth, 200 cars, holding four
tons each, are lifted every day. The
time occupied for lifting full car
through the whole length of the shaft is
only little more than a minute. A
gentleman who has recently descended
this shalt, speaks of it as follows: ga
person of weak knees should not brave
the ordeal by descending the Pottsvilie
shaft. The machinery works as smooth
ly as hotel elevator, but the speed is
SO terrific that one seems falling through
the air., The knees, after few seconds
become weak and tremulous, the ears
ring as the drums of these organs are
forced inward by the air pressure, and
the eyes shut invOluntarily as the beams
Of the shaft seem to dash upward only a
foot or two away. AS one leaves the
light of the upper day the transition to
darkness is fantastic The light does
not pass into gloom 10 the same fashion
as our day merges into night, but there
is kind of phosphorescent glow, grad,

no The Alkaline Convention has dol


H@-The Alkaline Convention has done
some good that we know of. Last
August, the railroad raised the rate Of
freight from Manhattan to Junction
City-nineteen miles = from six cents
per hundred pounds SO seventeen cents.
Our millers had been shipping large
quantities of -four to Texas, via the old
NJ, *. & T. railroads which starts
from junction City, and this rise was
intended to break up this business-and
didit most effectually. The difference
Of eleven cents hundred in favor OF
Junction City, made it impossible fOr
people to compete. But, alarmed at
the call for the Alkaline convention, the
railroad has reduced its freight rate to
the former price of six cents. However

arousing to more vigorous prosecution
of the work.
The Good Templar's Society here has
been somewhat fearful of failure, from
lack of opposition, bat has received a
new impetus. The same fanatics that
attacked them so furlously last winter
placed their batteries in position last
night, and commenced another on
slaught. Their text is: "Secret Socie.

rejection and one of expulsion recently
which was their theme last night, and
which they characterize as kicking tn,

that if man is found In the ditch, ant
he refuses to be helped out, little judi
