Absolutely Pure.
Father, Mother, and Three Sisters Dead.

Mr.. David Claypool, formerly Sergeant
>.t-Arms ofthe New Jersey Senate, and now
i ,tary Public at Cedarville, Cumberland
Co., n. j., makes The following startling
statement: "My father, mother, and three
sisters all died with consumption. and my
lungs were so weak [ raised blood Nobody
thought I could live. My WORK (ship-
slnithing was very straining on me with my
weak constitution, and was rapidly going
to the grave. While in this condition |
commenced using Mishler's Herb Bitters,
and it saved my life. Because it was so
difficult to get it in this little place, and /
had improved SO much, stopped taking it
for a time, and the result is that have
commenced going rapidly down hill again.
Somehow, Mishler's Herb Bitters gives
appetite and strengthens and builds ME up
as nothing else does, and | must have
dozen bottles at once. Use this commu-
nication as you please, and if any one wants
to be convinced of its truth, let them write
me and [ will make affidavit to it, for 7

The secret of the almost invariable reliel
md cure of consumption, dysentery, diar-
rhea, dyspepsia, indigestion, kidney and
liver complaints, when Mishler's Herb
Bitters is used, is that it contains simple,
harmless, and yet powerful ingredients,
that act on. the blood, kidneys, and liver,
and through them strengthens and invigoT-
ates the whole system. Purely vegetable

RARE FLO WERS.

Orchids IN Golden Gate Park Conservotory.
Orchids, OF all flowers, certainly take
the strangest and most fantastic shapes.
The flowers OF one variety (Ihglenobsis
dmd6ihs) look like cluster Of white
butterflies lowering in the air. One of
most grotesque shapes imaginable is
the Sfanhopea 7igyina. In Guatemala,
its home, it is called THE Mouth Of
the Tiger To many it looks like a
large and monstrously shaped beetle or
dragonhy in the act of swallowing
smaller bird or beetle, while the tail-end
curls forward under the victim to
either push it into the mouth OF the
voracious beast or torment it with it.
sting. The whole of the flower is
yellow, dotted over with dark spots,
and two of these dark spots rather
larger than the others, one on each
side, a little back Of the mouth, look
like the beetles large, round, staring
eyes Another peculiarity Of this
variety is, that the flowers in clusters Of
about six, issue from the base of the
pseudobulb and always hang straight
downward. This .Sianhopea and the
Pfdkrnotsis can be seen in the left
wing Of the conservatory.
In the right wing, in two glass cases,
can be seen two plants Of another
strange and interesting form, the Holy
Ghost flower (fsy1sfey1a elafv). IL
Central America, its home, it is wor-
shipped by the simple, faithful peasantry
since somebody, because of its sem
3lance to dove, called it "El Espirit,i
Santo," the Holy Ghost. The plant
hrows up from the base of the pseudo
bulbs flower spike about five feet in
height and carries from ten to fifteen
dowers on spike. They are. abou,
TWO inches in diameter, waxy white,
and during some hours of the day very
sweetly scented.
The sepals and petals Of the flower
never reflex like those Of other flowers,
but always stand forward little, to
protect the dove-in the center Of the
flower. Because Of the wavy-white
color Of the whole flower one is apt to
pass by with only hasty glance, but
stop and examine it more closely and
you will see the dove without any

rnE rASAMA CANAL


Dr. Arthur Gore, who returned yes
terday from a trip through the United
States OF Columbia, says that President
Rafael Nunez has deserted the Liberal
party, by which he was elected two
years ago, and has gone over to the
Church, or Conservative party, The
latter element, led by Archbishop Paul,
has control Of the army and treasury,
and one Of the first acts of President
Nunez on allying himself with this
party was to place the whole republic
under martial rule. He thus succeeded
in terorizing the people, and, as a
natural result, there we're no polls
opened on September 9th, at which
date the regular biennial election of
President was to take place. Nunez's
friends have announced that they will
call convention and extend the Presi-
dental term from two years, as now
provided for by the constitution, to six.
This is looked upon as an attempt Of
Nunez to secure the dictatorship of the
republic, and the people are loud in
their expressions of dissatisfaction.
Referring to the Panama canal, DR..
Gore says that since the failure OF the
company to receive a new loan spirit

sales of mules, carts and other property
are of frequent occurrence. 1t is said
that the Sub Director-General intends
to remove his headquarters to Colon,
and that the Grand Hotel, built by the
canal company, is to be sold. Nearly
all the merchants of Panama hold
canal paper" as il is called, and the
larger owners are feeling very blue over
the prospect in store for the enterprise.
DR.. Gore is satisfied that the whole
proceeding has been worked by egregi-
ous frauds from the beginning, and for
the $r7o,ooo, 900 already expended
there is nothing to show in the way Of
canal but superficial scratch in the
hard mass of volcanic rock through
which it was proposed to cut passage.
Large sums Of money have been spent
in the construction of residences for
officers, houses for workmen, hospitals,
shops, tool.houses, etc, nearly all OF
which were built by contractors who
have bled the country most unmerci-
fully. Some very handsome buildings
and grounds now mark the line of the
canal at the various points where it was
thought best to begin operations. Caz-
ing on these palpable evidences of ex
travagance, the French residents re-
mark, "C'esf magnifqne, nais &c n es'

HONOLULU SOCIETY.

The social status Of Honolulu is as
varied as there are races and classes Of
inhabitants. Names are merely con-
ventional and classes are only distin-
guishcd by their actual existence. For
instance the name Missionary" has
lost its original meaning and has come
to include large number OF other
classes. The name native has be
come restricted to the natives and half
casts, outside Of court circles. The
name "Chinese" has been extended
to include large portion Of the native
female population, and the name
&C ourt society" has been restricted
within the narrow circle Of a few for
eigaers, natives and halfcasts.
Il will be seen, therefore, that any
classification that may be made will
naturally overlap, to some extent, some
Of the Aiy sions. Generally, however,
Honolulu society may be classcd OF
divided as to the elements making up
of the whole Of our present social con.
dition with approximate accuracy as
follows: Court, Missionary, Native,
Chinese, Portuguese, and Foreign. The
"Foreign is BY necessity Of our social
conditions restricted to. Americans,
English, French, and Germans with the
American element predominatihg,
I The native. and court classes are the
oldest although they have not always
borne the relations they do at present.
As far as social classes are concerned
the missionary may be placed next.
Then follows the Foreign embracing
Americans, English, etc, and last but
not least come the Chinese and Portu-
guese classes. Grades Of social dis
tinction do not obtain here as in most
other countries, and, strange as 1t may
sound, il is nevertheless true that
/. Honolulu society, generally, may be
divided into the decent and the inoe-
cent. With the exception Of perhaps
the strict missionary class and a small
portion Of the foreign class. it is .
shame to say that indecency prevades
and permeates every other class Of
Honolulu society. Under the head ol
indecency, drunkenness, as we'll as

An interesting reminiscence of the
late Col. Burnaby appears in the Pub
tSher's Courier. He was rather fidgety
in the matter of proofs, and was in a
state of feverish impatience until he
got them. That he did not write for
literary effect may be inferred from the
following. On one occasion, when a
slight inelegancy of style was pointed
out to him, he wrote: "You are proba-
bly, right about the repetition.
l write as talk, and do not pretend to
have any style. You are not the only
person who has remarked about the
repetition of the word. have let two
or three people look at the proofs.

we think, to misapprehension OF the ma.
ture and work OF this new method, and Of
the motives and aims OF those engaged in
this most difficult bat grand, good work
One great hindrsnce or objection is that it is
very expensive, and so many parents fail to
realize the value Of first Impressions, the very
great imp ortance of having the best talent
employed, and the most judicious training for
the youngest children. They are 60
very Glow to understand that money
spent in the first years of q child's
existence to aid in developing its dawning
facilities, is a rich, golden investment-bet-
ter than Government bonds, bank stock or
landed estate. The kindergarten idea is not
a question OF teaching to read, but Of teach
ing TO think; hence, on account of the diff
Guilty of the work and mission the Kinder
garteners should be the wisest and most skillful
of teachers.
From six to eight months will be required
fer the full course in the training class, with
daily practice in the childrea's kindergarten,
which by the way, is indispensable in getting
that practical knowledge of this wonderful
system of child culture which is necessary to
make successful kindergarten.
The chileren's unspoken motto in the Kin
dergarten is: I'VE learn by doing" To the
very young child modelling in clay is val
liable means of edrcation as we'll as a never
failing source of amusement. 1t has q fasci-
nation in it that but lew iii any OF the oc-
cupations of the system excel. Modelling
and working in clay keep the youngest
child in the class engrossed in silence for the
longest time, and nothing can equal the de-
light manifested by the children when the
time comes for lesson in clay
1t has truly been said that Requirement
and pleasure should 60 hand in hand"
Hence the pleasure of acquiring knowledge
of learning by doing should be the incentive
to every mental effort put forth by the very
young child. This the kindergarten does,
in truly magic way; this system of child
culture is made SO easy, natural and attractive
that it may be styled unconscious develop
ment, aud the Kindergarten (which, by the
way, means "child-gsrden') becomes, or, is
in very deed, "ihe paradise Of childhood
