The WATER WORKS.

A good deal of talk was occasion
ed about town to-day, by the APP
pearance Of an official advertisement
stating that Mr.. w. r. Seal was
from this date "alone authorized to
collect water rates and dues on ac-
count of the Honolulu Water
Works" Enquiry ELECTS the ex-
PLANTATION given below. The Minis
ter of the Interior intends to have
the whole water service surveyed,
with view to making complete
plans of pipes, taps, etc., with rates
paid in each case, and cognate in
formation. For this purpose two
civil engineers are to be employed,
and Mr.. G. B. Wilson, Superintend-
ent, will accompany one of them,
and Mr.. VIM. Aud, Clerk, the
other. With these important Of
ticers absent from the office, it was
necessary to appoint an experienced
business man TO conduct the finan-
cial affairs of the department. This
is the reason given for Mr.. Seals
appointment.

THIS morning, shortly before two
O'Clock, suburban neighborhood
was wakened up by the most ear
piercing screams. They were found
to proceed from dwelling just
vacated by family, an old native
and a son of ten OF twelve years
being left in charge. Two of the
neighbors, whose families had been
aroused by the weird noise, entered
the premises, and, knocking at a
door, asked what the matter was.
A plaintive voice from within replied,
"Ghosts!" The party outside asked
the owner of the voice to open the
door, and shortly the old man APP
peared and explained in native what
the trouble was. He pointed inside,
and there stood the boy close to the
door, quaking with fear. The visit
ors, finding there was nothing more
than a case of nervous and super
stitious fear, administered some
soothing words to the distressed lad,
and, bidding him and his parent
aloha, returned to their beds. There
was no more disturbance of the
quiet of the night.

to observe that dress which may
fit properly in one position of the
body may be unduly tight in another.
Dressmakers always fit their Gus
toners standing up, but from the
following measurements of girls
figure it is obvious that this custom
requires some reform: standing
erect, with little air in the lungs, the
waist measured 21in. with the
lungs fully expanded, 221in. and
STOPPING forward, with the lungs
still expanded, no less than pain,
Now, as great part of the girls
time is unfortunately spent in stoop-
ing over books, drawing, or the
pianoforte, it may he readily under
stood that this natural thickening of
the waist should be allowed for in
her clothing. When dress is being
fitted, the girl should be made to
put herself into a variety of posi-
tons in order to see whether it is
perfectly comfortable in all of them.
The dress bodice should always per-
init both arms to be raised straight
up above the head, and this position
should be tried when it is being
fitted on. Some of the prevalent
faults which prevent this movement
being accomplished are that the
dress is cut too long on the shoulder
and too tight in the armholes, while
the side seam is not long enough
from the waist to the armpit, and, if
the plan suggested be adopted, these
can be remedied in time.

THE BISHOP OF BEDFORD ON THE
REGENT REVELATIONS.

Preaching in Westminster Abbey
on a recent Sunday morning, His
Lordship pointed out that wicked as
Sodom was, Capernaum's sin was
greater, in that it had resisted greater
grace, and our Lord asserted that
had Sodom had the privileges of
Copernaum it would have rcpented,
and said How one wondered what
our Lord would have said about
London! Does 1t stand above or
below Sodom or Capernaum? 1t
seemed absurd at first to compare
Christian city with Sodom. And yet
Capernaum, where our Lord worked
and spoke, was so compared. Per-
haps one day the question would be
answered in very startling manner.
We had multitude of churches,
the bells of which were constantly
calling to worship, and from whose
pulpits the name of Jesus was being
constantly proclaimed, while those
who were divided from the Church
of the land were jealous in setting
forth the truths of Christianity; we
had Bibles sold for halfpence, and
constant religious teaching alike in
our day and Sunday-schools. Yet
when the outward cloak of decency
and respect was stripped off as had
been done for us so terribly the last
few days, what horrible fostering
corruption do we see lying beneath
the surface! Was he wrong who
apostrophized London as "wealthy,
busy, restless, intellectual, degraded
the birthplace and abode of
antichrists ?" Shall such things be
told us and the Church stand by in
silence, with no word Of scorn or
rebuke-of solemn warning and low
ing counsel? When these things
have been dragged to light we need
not be overcareful in scrutinizing the
method, and he knew that it had
been done with an intense conviction
of the horrible necessity, and much
prayer. Those who most condemn
the method of the revelation cannot
say that there was no need OF the
voice of warning. 1t was so easy
to hide oneself in the crowd and
forget ones individuality; but cities
and countries were made up of in.
dividuals. Those to whom he was
speaking shrunk, he knew, in horror
from the grosser forms of iniquity
and many he trusted had the grea
blessings of being shielded from the
knowledge of it. But were mel
who did know to stand skulking AMI
covering? What were they doinl
to purify the nation? Where wa
their righteous indignation agains
horrors which made every homes
cheek burn? Where was the socia
ostracism of the profigate? Wher
was the chivalry to protect the innc
cent?-Freeman, July 81, 1885.

the SCIENCE OF FITTING DRESSES.

The great difficulty in fitting gar
ments (says the Queen) is to pre-
vent the movements of the body being
cramped. This difficulty is entirely
obviated if jerseys are worn, and /
therefore strongly recommend them.
Their adoption in the case of grow
ing girls is beneficial, not only from
point of view of health, but also
from that of economy; for, if
ordinary dress bodies are worn and
fit as they should, they are very
soon outgrown, and must then be
given up, or they will prove injurl-
Gus. Dresses should fit loosely
enough to allow full expansion OF
the lungs, and yet not too loosely,
or their weight will not be properly
distributed and here it is necessary
