WITH AUTHORITY
PROCLAIM ALTON.

In the past the people Of
Honolulu have been under
heavy burdens, because of the
high and uncalled for prices
charged for staple articles; the
protests of the community
| passed unheeded, and all eff
forts to produce a better state
of affairs failed. In conse-
quence the people were dis
tressed beyond measure. 1t is
evident that some move should
be made to equalize matters,
and give the community a
share of the profits heretofore
enjoyed by those who have
been instrumental in keeping
prices at high water mark.
Now, therefore !, NJ. S.
LEVY. in behalf of the public,
hereby announce that [ have
established a store at rs Fort
street for the convenience of
all; and it is hereby pro-
claimed:
ALL HIGH prices are hereby
abolished.
ALL PERSONS entrusted in
this movement are requested
to call at once and enroll
themselves on my list of
customers.
The HOURS Of enrolment
are between 7 A. NJ. and 5
P. NJ.
Witness my hand and seal

ruary, 1898.

ton enough when they enter here 10

co sequence Is that love OF reading new

The hours OF danger 10 boy or man
are those between sunset and bed time.
The illiterate boy has no resources with

to find amusement and pastime; he thus
encounters temptations that lead to his
downfall. Let u boy be educated. let
him be taught 10 love the reading OF
good books or papers. and he has with
in himself q source of pleasure which the
illiterate can never know. Aside from
this, knowledge adds NV interest to
labor. A cultivated mind can appreci.

mind can possibly do. "We must edu-
cate, or we must perish" Realizing
this, the Reform School does not neg

ment OF character.
RESULTS.
Thrly-five aundred boys have at var
ious times been under the discipline aud
instruction of the School. Ot these
nearly 1900 have won their "honor
and have gone out to all parts Of the
country on tickets OF leave. That .he
work Of the School has been well done,
the subsequent lives Of these boys have
borne testimony. Some have fallen,
but eighty-five percent have made good
Icitizens.
Visitors are always made welcome.
No breath of scandal has ever msrred
its bright escutcheon, and the aims OF
those in charge 10 to make it, year by
year, still greater blessing TO society
and to the state that established and
fosters it.
