DIDN'T LIKE THE SYSTEM.

A thrifty woman had joined one
of these cooperative saving societies
whose earthly function is to protect
its patrons against extortionate prices
by securing to them a reduction of
ten per cent. at the stores belonging
to the combination. She was enthus-
iastlc over the opportunities for
economy the scheme presented, and
her husband was rather disposed to
be skeptical on the subject.
At the close of the first week she
had talk with him.
You don't believe in the society
she said tentatively.
Not altogether, he confessed.
Well, whether you do or not, I've
saved $40 this week-over SI.5o a
day for six days.
How? he inquired.
BY using my tickets, OF course.
l brought s1oo worth OF things and
only paid 500 for them.
All, he said, beginning to figure.
Yes, | did; and next week III save

was more enthusiastic than ever.
No, you won't my dear, he said
emphatically. You are altogether
too economical. This business of
spending S225 to save sa5 won't
work. You throw that ticket in the
fire and begin to retrench and reform
in some other direction, please, and
she began to cry.

GETTING SOMETHING TO DO.

There is hardly large establishment
of any kind, whether it be a newspaper
office, mandatory or trade establish
ment, that has not applications con-
tantlY from young men who want
something to do. 1t is often painful
to see the hopeless look upon their
faces when when refused, and all the
more painful when it is reflected that
mauy of them doubtless have capacity
for remunerative work, and would faith
fully attend to it if they had the
chance.
The truth is that the world is slow to
take any man entirely on trust. The
greatest singers, the greatest painters,
the greatest writers have had to con-
vince the world that it had need of
them before it was willing to give them
subsistence. So true is this that it
might almost be laid down as an axiom
of success that it is only to be won by
hard struggle. 1t takes the attrition
of poverty to bring out what is brightest
in man. 1t may be hardship, but
it seems to be law of the social
economy, and being law it must
have Justice and compensation in it
somewhere.
The question of "getting position" F"

WHERE LICORICE GROWS.

On the banks of the Tigris and
the Euphrates the licorice plant is
chiefly grown. These great rivers
flow through flat, treeless prairies of
uncultivated and nearly uninhabited
land. For three months of the year
hot wind blows, and the temperature
reaches Io4 degrees.
For six months OF the year the
climate is moderate and salubrious,
and for three months bleak and
wintry, the thermometer going
down to thirty degrees at night. =

appearance-for "the apparel oft pro-
claims the mau"-may often prove the
"open sesame" to success.
While it is good to have a due
appreciation OF ones abilities, it is not
good to be too exacting as to the field
for their display. The distance be-
tween the foot of ladder and the top
is but short span to him who has
within himself the power of rising.
The writer heard of young man
who, being IN needy circumstances,
went bravelY to work at the first thing
at hand-trench digging for con
tractor. That was his first opportunity.
One day his employer-not a we'll
educated man-needed some one to
keep a time roll of the men. The
young man volunteered. The contrac
tor took fancy to him, found him
increasingly useful, and the young man
is now we'll up the ladder.
1t is another requisite of the success
full worker that he shall be in love with
his work. If he is mechanic, he will
take pride IN his tools ; if he is a book
keeper, he will plume himself on the
merits of his pen and on the neatness
and forwardness of his accounts.
Julian Hawthorne counts among the
pleasures of authorship the satisfaction
got from good writing materials. As
the late Colonel Forney once said to a
youthful member Of the staff. "a man
must work con amore to have his work
worth anything.
A young lady who wished place as
typewriter got it in common, sen e
way. She wrote out half dozen
"replles," so to speak, brief, business
like and respectful, setting forth her
experience, publications and ideas as
to pay putting her figures rather above
the market rate. Next morning there
were four advertisements for type
writer's. She promptly mailed her
four replies directly at the main post
office, inclosing two cent stamp in
each. One of the four shots brought
down her bird. That evening her
position came to her by mail.
1t is not true that the world is a
better market for muscles than for
brains. The difficulty is that BRAN
matter, whatever its native brightness
is practically worthless without training
and experience. For one play pro-
duced by manager thousand are
rejected. The accepted one may be
inferior in many respects to many a
rejected one, may have less talent in
it, but it is from trained head and it
suits the managers want, and that is
enough. 1t is so with story writing
with headwork of every kind. Suit
ability is the quality that gives it
pecuniary value.
Men and women who, with certain
brilliant qualities, fail to realize this
truth often fancy that the conditions
of success are hard and limited. Yet
theatrical managers, Inagaziue I-o,s.
ers and many others are subject to the
very same law themselves. They in
turn are employees of the public. They
must suit it, or it will turn elsewhere
for what it wants.
Finally, 1t is not necessary that a
want should be proclaimed in order to
exist. Sometimes it may be anticipated.
Sometimes it may even be created.
Whoever can create a want tor his
wares or work is on the way to a mas
terful success.-PhiladeLbhia Leger.

EDUCATION OF GIRLS.
The Best Way to Train up the
Average American Girl.

The subject of the proper education
of women to meet the problems of the
present century is now very live
topic. When one looks around and
out or the mass of women who are
forced to rely upon their own efforts,
It's amazing how much they accom-
plish with the slight equipment for
such exertion that many of them
possess.
That women possess all the qualities
of men, except perhaps physical
strength, no one now cares TO deny.
We all know that down through the
ages of history women there have been
who have held positions of great
responsibility women who have risen
to the very height of power and
influence; but such women have been
the exceptions OF the age In which they
lived.
Had all women enjoyed the mental
training that the men OF their class and
age received it Is difficult to say what
result might haye been accomplished.
That they have not had that training
is evident. We all know the history
of the courageous ones who have al
last changed the current of popular
thought, so that all fields are practically
open to women.
How shall she best be trained tc
meet all the new reqnirements2 Tc

But the men who rose on the
18th of January were not Ameri-
cans alone. They were Germans,
Portuguese, Englishmen. The rev.
olution was an uprising of the
whole foreign community. 1t
represented and it still represents
nine-tenths of the wealth, brains
and industry of the nation. These
men were long-suffering. They
were patient to fault, and they
did not call a halt until their po-
itical liberty and material pros

until everything which makes
the beauty and the worth of
civilization, were threatened with
destruction by tide of heather

There may be those who think
the power of the United States will

Swell the Rolls!

Mr.. EDITOR In view of the
apparent success of the woman's
branch of the Hawaiian Patriotic
League in obtaining anti-annexa-
ton names, 1 would beg to submit
to your readers the following in
stances as illustrative of the meth
DDS by which the signatures are
being obtained.
The first instance is that of a
young Hawaiian mother signing
her name and the names of her
three children, the oldest child be-
ing about five years old, and the
youngest less than six months of
age. OF another native woman
signing the names of her seven
children, the oldest being about
twelve years and the youngest an
infant in arms. Of still another
woman signing the name of her
child less than one month old.
There is another instance of a
young native IS or 20 years old,
who refused to sign the anti-annex-
alton roll, his sympathies being
with the annexationists, the roll
was taken to his mother, and his
name was inscribed without his
knowledge or consent.
Of thirteen consecutive names
on one of their rolls, but three rep
resent the names of adults.
The above statements Mr.. Editor
can be verified at any time by ref
erence to the undersigned.

resolution. She asserted the right
to nominate Cabinets without refer
ence to the will of the Legislature.
She trampled upon the Constitu-
ton. She kept her creatures in
office in defiance of law. She in
terfered in politics, called Repre-
sentatives to the Palace, secured an
illegal control over legislation, and
in combination with the opium
ring turned out Cabinet which
had the confidence of the whole
business community, and passed
and signed the most corrupt and in
iquitous bill known to Hawaiian
legislation, a bill which would have
destroyed the government and de-
livered it bound hand and foot to
the control of a huge gambling cor
poration. The result of all this
was that the industries of the coun-
try were declining, its business and
its credit paralyzed. Yet the COM
munity peaceably submitted, and
never thought of resistance. 1t
was only when the Queen attempt
ed to crown these wrongs with
act of wrong, by subverting the
the constitution, and taking from
the whites the last vestige of their
political rights, that the foreign
community rose. No American
with a spark ofloyalty to American
ideas, and spark of manhood in
his nature could do otherwise, and
the Americans of that kind were
about all on one side, on the
18th of January last.

OPINION OF THE COURT PER WHITING
JUDGE.

|
JUDGE.
This is an appeal by plaintiffs
from the decree in Equity upon the
decision of Judd, C. j., rendered
October 9Th, 1892, after full hear
ing of the evidence. The plaintiffs
bill claimed an accounting from
the defendant, mortgage under the
mortgage given by plaintiffs and
an injunction to enjoin the sale of
the mortgaged property until the
account is settled.
A full accounting was had and,
| upon the evidence adduced, the
Chief Justice found and decreed
the sum of 1926 as the amount to
be credited by defendant on the
mortgage note, and the accounting
having been made, the dissolution
of the injunction necessarily fol-
lowed, there being no ground for
its continuance in force.
The appellants do not claim any
error in law, but practically re-
argue the merits of the cause upon
the evidence, and the only ques-
ton now is, whether the evidence
is such as to warrant the findings
upon which the decree is based.
In the submission of a
cause in Equity on appeal the
appellants should point out suffi-
cient evidence to show that the de-
cree rendered is wrong and should
be reversed, but in this cause, we
are of opinion that they have failed
so to do, but on the contrary the
evidence is sufficient and very
strong to support the decree.
The appellants having failed to
show that the evidence does not
warrant the decree, we are of
opinion that the decision and de-
cree of the Chief Justice should be
sustained, and we hereby adopt the |
same and affirm the decree.
Upon examination of the record, |
it fails to disclose that any appeal |
was taken, or certified up to this
Court except that a bond for costs
was filed. Only portion of the
evidence, to wit, the various letters
on file, is presented to us. 1t is the
duty of the appellant to have certi-
fed to this Court such evidence as
may be necessary for the decision
of the points raised, and in this he
has failed. This point was not
raised by appellee, and in the view
we take of the merits, we need rem
der no decision on this point.
