Hendry's Ready Mixed
Paints have captured the
heart of every man, woman
and child who want to paint
anything from a mansion to a
dog house. Our color list
which we will furnish on APP
plication contains an assert
ment of colors admirably
adapted for inside or outside
work. These paints are better
than unmixed, for the reason
that they are prepared by
people who have been brought
up on pigments and who could
not make a mistake in COM
pounding the ingredients if
they sat up nights trying.
They are uniform in shades,
suited to people who want to
do odd jobs about the house
and are an advantage over I'M
mixed paints from the fact
that when a lattice work
around a veranda is painted
with it, the color is all one
shade, whereas, by the old
way you are apt to have it
look like a harlequin's cos
tune.
The Aermotor trade is look
ing up. The promise of the
Water Works Department to
give Honolulu people enough
water to battle in has no effect
upon the plantation manager
who wants to irrigate cane
land at the least possible ex-
pense. The Aermotor has
been brought in competition
with steam engines and all
sorts of windmills, but in every
instance, it has come out on
top. In these times when
economy is the order of the
day, the original cost and the
cost of keeping up a piece of
machinery after If IL boI1Oht
are necessary points for con-
sideration. In this respect the
Aermotor can give any other
pumping outfit cards and
spades and win.

THE CREDIT SYSTEM.
A Business Man Expresses His
Views on the Benefit of
Cash Basis,

Mr.. EDITOR Fresh in the minds
of the readers of the ADVERTISER is
an agreement of the business
houses of Honolulu to establish as
near as possible a monthly system
of credit. The idea, as the writer
understood it, was not that the
bookkeepers should "get off bal
ance sheet" monthly, but that the
public be required to do their share
in maintaining the credit of Homo
lulu by paying their accounts more
promptly, thereby keeping in force
the greatest commodity in business
circles, namely, confidence.
If, for instance, by the careless
ness of some dealer in merchan-
disc, his customers fail to pay
promptly for what they absolutely
require" the dealer is obliged to
close up and pays so cents on the
dollar. The people of Honolulu are
very shortsighted if they think the
crash does not affect the commu-
nifty at large; and any dealer who
supplies on six and nine months
time luxuries to those who cannot
afford them, does no friendly act
and deserves only TO be obliged to
meet the inevitable crisis.
In the past, several men of
money in Honolulu have seen fit
to do business on long time, with
margin enough on their sales to
cover the investment of nearly
double, in some cases, and more
than three times in others, the
amount of capital that would be
required to carry on a trade pro-
portionate, on q cash basis. 1t is
easy to predict that dealers for
cash can offer, and buyers will see
fit to save the difference which
cannot be disputed, that exists be-
tween time and cash"
Now, one who did not fall in
with the enthusiasm at the time
referred to, wishes to assert as a
fact, that the firms and their en-
ployees have shown very little
backbone" with their new plan.
Consequently, men of principle pay
their bills as ever, which keeps
some money in circulation; but
the "poor pay" and "good, but
SLOW" still rule, and the men who
lack business courage go about
croakipg "hard times"
Then let there be a revival of
the good intentions, and any GUS
toner or patron who does not fall
in with the idea that he is to pay
more promptly, as his share of
business advancement, will soon
find few who are anxious for his
trade, and collectors won't go about
with long faces, for a good test will
show that

CLEVELAND HONORED.
A Far Fetched MisconSfrucfion
by the Bulletin,

The Friend said, president Dole
is taking a little vacation in order
to recuperate, although not like
President Cleveland, absenting HIM
self from any critical juncture of
affairs at the seat of government"
The Bulletin processes to find in
that language sheer at the presi-
dent of the United States. 1t does
not seem likely that the Friend
would take this particular time to
sneer at the arbiter of Hawaiian
interests.
The sentence quoted was meant
especially to intimate that Mr..
Dole's indisposition was not at all
a serious one such as Mr.. Cleve-
lands was supposed to be, which
compelled him to absent himself in
a time of great trouble. 1t implies
sense that the malady Of the lat
ter must have been very grave to
compel his absence at such time,
and is so far an expression of SYM
patty for Mr.. Cleveland.
Although not of his political par
ty, hold President Cleveland in
very high esteem, and should re-
gard his disability at this time as
a great calamity to America and
also to Hawaii.

Hawaiian Superstifions.

1t is an old belief of native Ha-
waiians that the spirits of their
warrior chiefs inhabit after death
the bodies of their favorite horses.
There is even now a fine white
stallion in Honolulu in which, it is
popularity believed, lives the spirit
of Boki, who led a rebellion in Ia
hiti some years ago. AT various
times this horse, splendidly capari-
soned, is led riderless in state
through the principal streets of
Honolulu.-New York World.

The late royalist food of ire
sponsible correspondence has little
force in the present national issue
and its settlement. Why should
it? They are mostly Europeans,
and always anti-Americans. They
hate the proposition for annexation,
but they hate the futtering of the
stars and stripes more, perhaps,
than the missionaries they love
to revile, as the foremost represent
tatives Of the American party in
Hawaii. There is not one of the
treacherous non-American royalists
referred to dares sign his name to
any anti-annexationist communi-
cation published in the oppo-
sition newspapers of Homo
lulu. The public has often
read the signatures of those who
wish to convey the impression that
they are Americans supporting the
royalist cause in most instances
these communications are signed
by men who are either Europeans
and anti-Americans or have been
written to order by the hangerson
in saloons under anti-American
control. It is unfortunate that
one or two Americans, so-callcd in
the employ of these anti-Amer-
lean firms are lending their
influence to the fight being made
against American control in Ha-
wall. That their influence is small
and their ability less is no excuse
for their present action; it is safe
to say that these gentlemen will be
falling over each other to secure a
political standing in the new par
ties which must necessarily spring
into existence under the coming
new order of affairs on these ISL
ands.

MEMS FURNISHING Goods


as the small boy says we're
right in it."
We've got the most complete
stock in the islands, and if
you'll come in for a few
minutes and look over our
stock, we will soon convince
you of the fact.
We've call your attention for
the past few weeks to several
lines of handsome undergar-
ments, but we haven't COM
menced to tell or show you one
third of the lines we carry.
We would like to have you
come and see for yourselves.
Nine tenthS of the married
ladies of Honolulu shop for

would say we can give you
bigger variety, better and
more serviceable goods in

prices that you pay for vastly
inferior goods.
DR.. Jaeger's Sanitary Wool
en- Goods is a theme we've
harped on before, but we be-
lieve it's subject that will
bear repetition.
We are firm believers in the
sanitary value of these goods
and the public are rapidly
coming to the same conclusion.
The last four months we have
more than doubled our output
of these goods, notwithstand-
ing the determined efforts of
interested parties to discredit
them.
We have recently added
the "Gauze Grade" of these
goods to our stock. They are
the incest thing imaginable,
as soft and hight as silk; you
can blow almost through them,
and yet every thread is wool,
pure wool guaranteed.
The *" Grade we keep con-
stantly on hand in all sizes, and
we have also added few lines
for ladies.
Anyone doubling the au-
thority under which we sell
these goods can have all
doubts dispelled by reading the
authority conferred by DR..
Jaeger on the parties with
whom we deal, a copy OF
which we have inserted in our
window.

The fiat which went forth with
the report of Minister Blount was
to the effect and purpose that
American interests must hereafter
take precedence in Hawaii. The
political hula kui Of Kalakaua and
Liliuokalani has been replaced by
the emphatic tread of western civ
ilization, and the licentious rule Of
these sovereigns has been blotted
out by such manly figures as San
ford B. Dole, Francis M. Hatch and
Samuel M. Damon. The public wish
is that the disgraced monarchy may
be allowed to rest in peace under
the sod of it's own iniquities.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.

The royalist cause in Hawaii
has reached low water mark. The
bluff and brag of the ex-queen's
adherents prominent for several
months past seems to have evapor-
ated through the exercise of their
vocal organs. 1t is not to be
understood that the public has
mistaken the claims put forth by
the leaders of the royalist or "lost
cause" movement. Coming events
have cast their shadows before and
the real hackers of the ex-queen's
cause have already virtually with
drawn from the fight, as far as the
sinews of war-gold coin-is con-
cerned. There are rumors galore
that the journals which have been
loudest in royalist brag have had
the least financial backing to their
arguments. These rumors are not
unfounded. The different persons
of former degree back of the roy
alist party have already issued
orders that there is no need of pur-
suing the lost cause further. That it
is already failure is admitted on
all hands. No more money is
likely to be put up by those
who have thus far deceived
themselves and their adher-
ents by promises that the United
States would ultimately restore
the ex-queen to the throne, to
the detriment of the American
colony in Hawaii. The fact is that
no more money seems to be in sight
for royalist campaign purposes, and
it is doubtful if the few moneyed
men On that side will allow them
selves to be made the bankers of an
uncertain and Improbable cause.

The Holomua newspaper is al
ready defunct, and although it is
rumored on the streets that a new
edition of the old sheet will be is
sued during next week from the
Elele office, it is not generally be-
lieved the scheme will permanently
materialize. 1t is further under
stood that the new enterprise
is based upon the SUPPOSE
ton that the days of that
staunch royalist journal, the Bull
letin, are numbered. Be this as it
may, it is pretty well under
stood there is no love lost be-
tween the royalist newspapers
mentioned, owing to the liter
airy and journalistic aspira-
tons of the various editors Of the
half-white sheet to control the
Canadian relict of the national re-
form party "what was" as Samuel
Weller would say. 1t is sad that
such cross purposes should develop
themselves on account of the lack
of little money in the journalistic
ranks of the ex-queen's needy fol-
lowers-but then the fact must be
kept in view that even the ex-
queen has tumbled to the un-
limited need of quarters and half
dollars among her crowd of alleged
patriots, and that she has closed
her purse with a decisive snap in
the interest of the political econ
omy of ex-royalty.

We are glad to see that our fad
ing evening contemporary is able
to correct an injustice done this
journal through political pique.
There was no excuse for the blum
der in the first place, which was of
a kind that no newspaper except
the Bulletin would have COM
mitted. The confession that that
paper does not send reporter to
public meetings because it cannot
print the report until the next day,
is exactly on a plane with the abil-
ity and enterprise of the daily Bull
letin. This reminds US, though why
We can hardly tell, that the reso-
nant cheek, displayed by the luck

same quality as the editorial brass
lately displayed in that journal by
the adventurous" remnant of the
national reform party. The issue
now before the Hawaiian public is

it is American and anti-American-

The Pennies Ne Lnse.

Small copper coins are lost in such enormous numbers that the govern ment is obliged to keep on coining cents at the rate of several millions of them every month. They change hands so often as to be subject to multitude of accidents, and, owing to their small value, they are not taken care of. This is no cause of regret to Uncle Sam, in- asmuch as he buys the pennies in blank from firm in Connecticut at the rate of 1000 for S1. On reaching the mint in Philadelphia, whence all of them are issued, they have merely to be stamped. There are 119, ,OO0, ,0OO old cop per pennies somewhere. Nobody knows what has become of them, except that once in awhile a single specimen turns up in change. A few years ago 4,5OO,- 600 bronze 2-cent pieces were set afioat. Three millions of them are still outstanding. Three million g. cent nickel pieces are scattered over the United States, but it is very rarely that one is seen. Of 800, 900 half-cents, which correspond in value to English farthings, not one has been returnep to the government for receinage or is held by the treasury.
