Destroy that Sign.

One may feel that he's getting old,
but he naturally dislikes that anything
about his appearance should advise
others of the fact. Yet nothing does
this so effectually as thin and falling
hair. No woman wants to marry a
man, and business firms hesitate to
employ man who shows this fatal
sign. Parker's Hair Balsam is worth
to you, in this regard, more than its
weight in diamonds. Use it, and
have plentiful and glossy hair, Many
have had every trace of grayness re-
moved and bald spots covered by u.s.

NEEDED.

One of the great wants of COM
merce in this city is a reliable
brokers' shop. Foreigners stopping
off in Honolulu are subject to con-
siderable embarrassment and some
times to heavy exactions owing to
the impossibility of exchanging for
eign coin for its equivalent in Ha-
waiian specie. A city of extensive
commerce and lying as il does in
the highway between the American
and Asiatic continents, it would be
expected that facilities would be
provided for the accommodation of
foreign tourists having money to
spend in the place, so that they
could do so without yielding to eN-
orbitant discounts. A considerable
amount of local buying and selling
is anticipated from the new arrange
ments of the Pacific steamship COM
panies shortly to come into opera
ton. An officer of one of the Aus
tralian steamers stated to repre-
sentative of this paper that no pas
sengers in transit would spend any
money in Honolulu that they could
possibly avoid, while their English
shillings and sovereigns are refused
or taken at an enormous discount
silver about 20 percent of the real
value. 1t certainly does seem abb
surd that coin representing be-
tween "a and 25 cents, gold, should
not be taken ON par with a coin
worth 21 cents. Next to the oldtime
Mexican dollar, the English shil-
ling is the best silver coinage in the
world, having an intrinsic value that
is not necessary to increase into a
nominal value 20 percent greater,
by the arbitrary fiat of statute law !;
and yet these coins, twenty of which
are equivalent, by par of exchange,
to S4.S4 40 United States gold,
cannot be available by travellers IN
this city, for more than 20 cents.
Before we can expect to reap any
great harvest from the stay of Aus
tralian steamers at this port, some
enterprising money owner must
open good broker shop where
English, as well as other coins, can
be converted, at reasonable rates,
into Hawaiian currency.

AMERICAN GRATITUDE FOR IMPERIAL
ATTENTION..
SULTAN AND LECTURER.

Major Henry c. Dane, q learned
and well-known America citizen,
whose interesting lecturers are highly
appreciated in the United States, last
year visited Greece and the East on
a trip for literary pursuits. He was
shown many courtesies on the part
of his Imperial Majesty the Sultan,
being permitted to visit the Imperial
Treasury, the old Seraglio kioslls,
the palaces and monuments of this
capital, accompanied by n special
aide-de-camp of his Imperial Ma
jesty. In return for this kindness,
he has lately sent the poetical works
of the national poet Henry w. Long
fellow, with the autograph of the
author, to be presented to his In
perial Majesty the Sultan, as a
token of his sincere thanks for the
attention he received. The books
were presented to his EXcellency
Munir Pasha, Grand Master of Cere-
monies at the Imperial Palace of
Yildiz, by Mr.. ID. n, Demetriades,
the first interpreter of the consulate
general of the United States, accom-
panied with a letter from the Honor
able G. II. Heap, the consul-general
of the United States. Munir Pasha
received the books and presented
them to II. /. NJ. the Sultan who
accepted them and expressed his
satisfaction which he wishes 10 prove
to the thoughtful donor in any way
that may be suggested. Major

EDITORIAL NOTES.

General lIagood, as Chairman Of the
Board OF Visitors Of the Citadel has
written n very digniiich and diSpSssion-
ate letter to the NeuS and Courier
ancnt the criticisms Of the press upon
the action Of the Board in the Schir-
'ncr case. He says TINT the Board has
not made public the reasons that infiu-
enccd its action, because they arc re-
qucsted by law to lay them before the
Legislature, and because they deem that
any newspaper discussions of the ac-
lions of n governing body of n military
academy tends to destroy discipline and
proper respect for authority. In view
Of these facts let further Judgment be
suspended till the report comes and
makes known the motives %actuating the
Board. They arc good and true and
tried men and deserve this considcra-
ton.

The unGracious and imvidious COM
ment INDUCED in by the Ncus uu}
Courier Of the 18th. whilst speaking of
Captain 1.egare Walkers retirement
from the Railroad Commission, impress
ed us at the time as the most unncccssa-
ry and gratuitous diSparagcment of the
remaining members Of the Board. The
Hegistcr would be among the last 10
find fault with anything said in praise
OF Captain Walker, as he and his
friends have occasion to know. But in
saying n good word for him, why 20 out
Of the way to disparagc the Commits
sioners in charge?
The Chairman Of the Board, General
M. l.. Bonham, has had charge of rail-
road supervision from the very incep-
ton Of the policy. His experience and
subject and the good Judgment shown,
as wei rs the courtesy and fairness
which the roads admit to have received
at his hsnds, besides the distinguished
services he has rendered his State
through a long life, should at least have
shielded him from the following impu-
dent discourtcsy
There was implicit trust everywhere
in Capt. Walkers fair-mindedness and
thoroughness, and it is feared that the
Commission will seem very weak with
out him.
We detract nothing from Captain
Walker when we say that all questions
that shall come before the Board now,
will be dealt with as fairly, handled as
thoroughly, and decided as firmly as
though Captain Walker were still Il
member OF the same. But why com
plain ? This is the NcmS ami GOu,Ter's
way, you know.-EOlWm6iu Reqistcr.
