THE LOTTERY POISON.

There are three inharmonious factions
in the Hawaiian legislature, and that
august body is having a very serious
time over the proposition of the Louis
lana lottery company. A bill was read
in the legislature August 30th, granting
an exclusive franchise to D. H. Gross,
of Chicago; S. w. B. Davenport, of ST.
Louis; and John Phillips, ]. j. Will
Jams and DR.. Gilbert Foote, of Homo
lulu, for term of twenty-five years; the
company to pay for the franchise $780,
0O0 each year in quarterly installments.
The minister of the interior is to dis
burse this sum for the following pur-
poses: An ocean cable between Homo
lulu and any port on the North Ameri-
can continent connecting with the
American telegraph system, 100000
per annum; a subsidy for the construc-
ton of railroad around Oahu island,
of $50, 900 per annum subsidy for rail-
road through Hilo and Hamadua, $50 900

engagement of tourists travel and i'm
migration. The capital stock of the
company is fixed at $5,000,000, $4,000

POOR TEETH.
They Arc Very Harmful to the Health and

They Arc Very Harmful to the Health and
Require Early Treatment.
Poor. decaying, abscessed teeth are
very often the sole cause of internal de-
rangements of the digestive organs, and
are at the foundation of many nervous
diseases As breeder of foul-smelling
breath they are very important, and
enc can not afford to let such a tooth
remain long in the mouth. Poor people
as rule suffer more in this respect
than the rich, for the latter have their
teeth early attended to by a dentist,
while the former allow them to remain
in the head until they are very far gone.
Some teeth can not be filed with any
success, and the owner hates to have
them pulled out. The proper time for
the extraction of tooth is really a diff
fcult matter 10 determine. If the back
teeth are abscessed in any way, they
should at once receive skillful treat
ment, and If the discharge of pus can
not be controlled in time they should be
extracted. Chronic assesses in the
teeth discharge pus continually, and
the stomach is forced to assimilate this
septic poison along with the food. In
the course of time it must poison the
digestive organs, and eventually i'm
pregnate the whole system. Too much
attention can not be given to poor teeth
In this way. There is dry rot in some
teeth which does not discharge pus, and
a great amount of injury may not be
done to the system by letting them re-
main. but the majority are harmful.
The question of pain should not keep
one from the dentists chair, for when
gas is administered the work is eompar-
atively painless. In taking gas, how
ever, it should be taken only on an
empty stomach, for if taken immediate

MaOris came across some bars of soap
which bad been washed ashore from "A

sticky to be eaten raw, they resolved
to cook 1t. Accordingly they cut it up
into small pieces and sprinkled tne
pieces over the sweet potatoes and fish
which formed their evening meal
Finally they covered the whole mass
over with fern leaves and mats. and,
putting earth on the top, left every
thing to bake quietly in the ovens till
the evening. The scene at that evening
meal must have been very funny. Not
only did the tribe go supperless to bed,
but the whole set of ovens was spoiled
and new ones had to be constructed be-
fore any further cooking could be done.

THE RESTORATION ERA
Was the Time when Men Were Adorned
with Lace.

Was the Time when Men Were Adorned
with Lace.
The restoration era being essentially
the age of the dangling knee fringe
and the bib cravat, il was only natural
tina. The stiff band and the falling col
lar which had been worn under the
tyranny of Puritan ascendancy, should
have given place to ncckcloths or era
watts of Brussels or Flanders lace tied
with ribbons beneath the chin, and
with the ends hanging down square.
In this age of Puritan sobriety
in dress, it is difficult to comprehend
the mania which seized the breasts of
the gentlemen of the Caroline age for
lace. We find Pepys in 1862 putting on
his new lace band" and recording in
his diary" his complete satisfaction
with his appearance in it. $50 neat il
is, wrote he, that ! am resolved my
great expenses shall he lace bands. ard

pended almost as much as $50 upon

day of his consort
King William Ill. notwithstanding
his iron phlegmatic constitution, en-.
tertained a genuine Dutch taste for
lace, so much so, indeed. that his bills
for that article in 1898 amounted to the
modest sum of e.. 1875 los, fad which
would have served admirably to point
the moral of the political refcrmer or
to adorn the tale of the mob dema-
gogue, had suCh people then existed.
Among the more astounding items of
this bill appears the following: 'One
hundred and seventeen yards of
'scissse tem@,' cut work for Il INNING
Il pocket handkerchiefs, eis5 las Sd.
And as yards for "a cravats, at RS los,
