evidence thereof being produced to
properly constituted tribunal, and
his election become null and void.
This is matter in which young
Hawaii might learn some useful
lessons from old England. There
the electoral franchise is carefully
guarded by strict laws, and it is no
uncommon thing for member elect
to be unseated because of his viola
ton of those laws. A candidate for
the British Parliament is cautious of
irregularities, knowing that if he
gains seat by illegal practices he
is almost certain to lose it again.
Here in Hawaii the law as it now is
seems to have been sufficient in
times past, but since the natives
have become corrupted by unprinci-
pied foreigners change is greatly
needed. AUTHORIZATIONS.

WANTED, CLEAN POLITICS.

EDITOR BULLETIN:-l notice in
the papers numerous complaints of
fraud and corruption in connec-
ton with the elections. The Gov
ernment organ credits the Opposi-
ton with monopoly of wrong
doing. The Opposition papers
strongly intimate that the boot is on
the other leg. After allowing a
large margin for eXaggeration on
both sides, the truth seems to be
contained in the assertion that
neither the Government adherents
nor the Oppositionists are exempt
from the evil complained of. If
they were put into a bag together
and shaken, it is unsafe to predict
which would tumble out ahead. One
thing is certain, elections in this
country are distant remove from
purity, and the law as it now stands
affords but little protection against
the practice of fraud and unfairness.
Such a condition of matters is
deeply deplored by all honest and
honorable men interested in the
welfare of the nation. Is there no
remedy for the evil? If public senti-
ment does not favor reform 1t is
hard to effect reformation. But
the making of laws is the work of
the Legislature, and the Legislature
at its next session should make q
comprehensive and practical law to
cure the evils besetting the present
system OF elections. Legislation for
this purpose is more than desirable,
it is urgent, and should be delayed
on no consideration. If the recently
elected House has not the will and
the determination to deal with the
matter its honesty and patriotism
may well be questioned. The neces-
sity of producing a tax receipt at
the polls should be abrogated, or
the coralling of receipts by those to
whom they do not belong be made
an offense punishable by a heavy
penalty. Every species of bribery
and intimidation should be easy OF
proof, and sure of punishment OF
production of proof. Every sue
cessful candidate who has acquired
success through bribery or intimida
ton, direct or indirect, should b'
unseated Immediately on satisfactor.

Syracuse and Little Wonder had not
been fattcncd for beef, and Signet we
had fed for some time. but she was not
what beef men would regard fat.
Taking everything into consideration,
we think this shows decidedly to the
advantage of Holsteins rs beef animals.

cause in the increasing period the
moon, "by her continuing above
the horizon Immediately after the
sun has set, prevents the rapid
change from heat to cold, and moist
to dry, so injurious to young plants,
retaining the moisture at the sur
face" However much or little sense
there may be in this, there is GER
tainly no superstition. AT all events.
Mr.. Smith has reason to be highly
gratilied at the testimony he has re-
ceived of the value of the theory
when reduced to practice. Although
it was only four years or so ago that
he began experimenting in his own
garden, he has already been the re-
cipicnt of numberless letters from
scientific men and agriculturists all
over the Union and the Dominion,
telling of remarkably successful re-
suits of experimentation according
to the directions given by him. In
some cases the application of the
theory made all the difference be-
tween unusually good crops and total
failures, side by side, with every
thing else equal. While so much
expense is being incurred in these
Islands to arrive at the most econo-
mical production of sugar possible,
it might be well worth while to solicit
the aids of natures laws as digcsted
in the theory of "lunar influence on
vegetation" 1t will cost nothing,
and may yield "millions.' The
lowest latitude for which the Almanac
| gives specific directions for this

do not suit, our local astronomers

tons in accordance with the above

Finger Nails.
Toronto Globe.

'Few people understand how to cut
their nails, said the young lady mani
cure. "A knife OF scissors should never
be used. l trim and shape the nail
with a small file and then carefully
smooth down and bevel the roughened
edges with emery board, which keeps
them from breaking and trains them to
symmetrical growth. Another i'm
portant point where people neglect their
nails is in allowing the skin to grow out
on the base of the nail This should be
carefully pushed back with blunt in
strument at least once a week. | soak
the hands of my customers in tepid wa
ter few minutes before do this, so
as to soften the cuticle. This is neces-
sary, as otherwise it is liable to break.
1t requires great care, as the base of the
nail, which is very sensitive, may be
bruised, or the delicate edges of the skin
broken. Another place where care is
needed is at the sides of the nail, where
it leaves the fingers. Lack of attention
to this either hardens the end of the
flngci Or produces the untidy and pain
full hang-nails, which disfgure SO many
hands. In filing the nails the file should
always be drawn from the finger and to-
ward the end of the nail
'What are the hardest things to over
come in operating on hands that have
been neglected.
There are several things. Mothers
sometimes make practice of cutting
their children's nails almost square with
a pair of scissors. That hardens the
end of the finger and produces a
misshap nail. 1t can be overcome,
however, IN time. By filing the nail
from the sides it can be narrowed by
degrees to that filbert shape which is
considered the height of beauty. The
finger will still be blunt, but even that
will be remedied to some extent. Then
we have the people who bite their finger
nails off close. These are hard custom
ers to deal with. The nail is deformed
and brittle, and care has to be taken in
dealing with it. Manicures use a pre-
paration to stop the biting and then
correct the other defects by degrees.
do you know that thee are several
diseases of the finger nails2' she con-
tinued We'll, there are. One is call
OnaeAta baraSihfa, which is much to be
dreaded. 1t acts upon the nails by
thickening and drying them. They lose
their polish and grow rough and brittle.
With powerful glass the little parasites
which cause the trouble can be seen
growing in among the component parts
of the nail The nail has dirty brown
color, and the nail is raised up and
thickened. The disease is rare, and can
only be treated by skillful physician.
The white specks on the nail, which
we were told as children indicated gifts,
are really a nail disease, resulting, 1
think, from slight diseases. Hang-nails
are where the nail adheres to the cuticle,
and proves more than anything else the
use of the manicure's art. Hypertrophy
often aff1icts the nails, causing an exces-
sive growth, and dull, yellowish color,
and often produces severe pain from in
growing nails and other irritation. This
can be rcmcdied by a skilled manicure,
but cannot be cured
