Agents for the

UNITED STATES WATER FILTER.
1t is hardly necessary to direct the
attention of the public to the fact that
pure water is one OF the principal agents
in preserving health and insuring per-
feet comfort in household. The germ
OF our most malignant diseases can be
traced back to impure water.
The filter works easily, and, like
magic, turns the impurest water into a
perfectly colorless and absolutely pure
liquid.
This apparatus is attached to the or
binary water-pipe and filters rapidly. 1t
is displacing the old slowworking filters
in the United States.

HAWAIIAN POSTAGE STAMPS.

The new two-cent stamp issued
by the Postal Bureau is perfect
portrait of Queen Liliuokalani,
printed in purple. The border is
precisely like the KaIakaua two
cent stamp, the only difference be-
tween the two being the portrait
and the color.
1t may not be out of place here
to make some remarks on Hawaiian
postage stamps, which, from their
rare beauty, are greatly priced by
stamp-collectors in the old coun-
tries.
The first postage stamps used in
this kingdom were issued by Hon.
II. NJ. Whitney in 1851 Cat that
time postmaster), in accordance
with an order of the Government,
which had passed law imposing
postage on papers and letters sent
abroad. The rates were: Two cents
on each paper, five cents on each
half ounce letter sent abroad, and
thirteen cents if the American post
age was prepaid five being the
Hawaiian tax and eight cents the
American).
These three first issues were all
numerals, and continued in use for
two or three years, or until the
copper-plate stamps, of the same
denominations, were received from
Boston.
Type numerals, with plain rule
border, of the denomination of /, 2
and 5 cents, were occasionally
issued between 1859 and 1864, as
required by the postal services, to
meet the demand when the supply
of engraved stamps gave out. But
none were issued since the latter
date, in which year Q861) the
beautiful carmine two-cent, the first
of the Hawaiian steel dies, was re-
ceived in large supply.
The two-cent stamps have borne
the portraits of each of the Hawai-
ian sovereigns since 1853, except
Kamehameha V. and Lunalilo, but
no one of them surpasses in beauty
and perfect likeness that which
has just appeared of the present
Queen.
There will be q great demand
for this new Hawaiian stamp, and
if the statement of the London
Graphic be reliable, that the de-
mand for every new postage stamp
exceeds 912O,OOO to supply the
wants of the millions of stamp col
lectors, the postal department will
become very profitable to the Gov
eminent.
ALI the postage stamps of this
kingdom are equally valuable, and
no stamp album is complete unless it
has specimen stamp of each of the
new and high-priced issues-12c.,
15c., 25c., SOC. and one dollar. For
this reason no sales to foreign stamp
dealers should be made under the
face value.
Stamped envelopes are great
convenience to business men and
should be more generally used. In
the United States no letters are
allowed to be carried by steamers
or other conveyance outside the
mails, unless in stamped envelopes,
because such an envelope cannot
be used second time, whereas an
affixed stamp uncancelled may be
used several times and the public
treasury thereby defrauded. It
would be well if law were enacted
here forbidding the carrying of let
tiers by foreign and inter-island
steamers, except in stamped en-
velopes. 1t would save hundreds
and perhaps thousands of dollars
annually to the public revenue.
The denomination of Hawaiian
stamped envelopes is 1c., &C., A.,
DC. and 10c., all of which are pro-
durable at the Post Office at their
face value, the envelopes being
given gratis.

You can telephone if you pre-

After soaking your beans over
night put them in the Bean
pot, take your pork and push
it down through the beans, al
lowing it to project wee bit at
the top-not much, just so you
can see it add your table
spoonful of molasses and put
the whole business in the oven.
An hour afterward mix some
salt and pepper and mustard
in a spoonful of hot water and
pour over the beans. Put
back in the oven and in about
twelve hours you will have
a morsel worth eating. If
you like the flavor of onions
with your beans, instead of
pouring the seasoning over
the beans, get a small onion
and scoop out the center and
fill with salt, pepper and mus
tard and put in the bottom of
the pot and cover with beans
and let all bake together. The
