When the World Was a Cube.

To person who reads modern books
and modern literature in general, and
who has never had either time, opportu-
nifty or inclination to strike off into the
bypaths which were so frequently and
industriously followed by ancient writ
ers, thinkers and dreamers, the heading
of this mote" will be an enigma
Without further speculation, however,
and following the desire which should
always be uppermost in every writer's
mind-that Of at once getting the sub
ject itself before the reader-I will say
that there was time, centuries since,
of course, when the learned men Of the
world really taught that the world was
a square, not merely fiat, but that 1t
was cube. The primitive aeoRraphe-s

Of Egypt Assyria and China all taught
that the world was square plane, 4"
evidence Of which may be found on
thousands of ancient monuments in the
countries mentioned. as well as in their
ancient manuscripts, upon their in
scribed tablets Of clay and other early
literary remains
One of the most curious discoveries
ever made in Central America concern
ing Toltec belief, symbols, etc, is that
they also had similar idea concerning
the form of what we now speak of as
the globe" A late writer on the dis
coveries made among the monumental
ruins Of that country says, 'They
(meaning the Peruvians, Toltecs and
Quiches) believe the world to be a cube,
suspended from the heavens by cords of
gold fastened to each of its corners -

Unsnspected Sources of Disease.

Recent Investigations have brought
out the fact that there are many cases
of severe neuralgia caused by abnormal
conditions of the nasal passages. In
several instances there have been found
enlargements of the bony structure or
hard Jumps of diseased tissue pressing
against certain nerves and causing the
most excruciating pain. Removal of
these has resulted i'll complete cure,
although there have been returns of the
growths after the first operation. Per-
sons who habitually suffer from pains
in the head should have their conditions
carefully diagnosed. Long continued
suffering not infrequently brings about
protracted and incurable mental and
nervous disorders. New York Ledger.

While in Topeka last March, E. T. Barber

While in Topeka last March, E. T. Barber,
a prominent newspaper man of La Cygne,

Electric Lights for q Cts a Month";

Honolulu uses the electric current for
lighting purposes more generally than do
most American cities OF its population.
The reasons are found partially in the eli
mate conditions which urge the
adoption OF a light unaccompanied by
heat or an offensive odor. Furthermore,
no gas company has found our city an
inviting field for investment chiefly be-
cause OF its scattered condition and the
consequent large cost OF reaching
consumers; and electricity has thus met
no competitor except the original oil
lamp and the tallow candle. A third
cause we believe to be largely the fact
that when electric lighting was first in
troduced by the Government, it was
offered to consumers on basis OF rates,
which in many cases Of commercial
lighting and especially for night light
ing, considerably discounted the cost OF
oil for the same amount OF illumination.
The demand thus created soon reached
the limit OF that Government supply.
Today the Hawaiian Electric Company
possesses working capacity equal to
more than three times the present COM
bined incandescent output oil the Gov
eminent service together with our own.
We offer lighting at the Government
fat rates as follows:
Stores and offices per Is c. p. light PER
month $1.00
Residences per Is c. .. light per
month-to lights 90cts.
Residences per Is C. p. light per
month-excess OF lights 60cts.
We do much better than this fer our
consumers. We place lights in every
nook and corner OF your premises il you
wish, measure the light you use, and
charge for actual consumption only.
You use light when and where you
need it and you don't forget to shut it off
when that need is satisfied, nor do you
feel bound to keep the lights going from
dusk till dawn in order to secure the
value of a stipulated bill. We in turn
know exactly what We have delivered to
YOU and can figure with certainty upon q
definite and rock bottom basis.
The cost OF Is c. p. light per hour IS
IL to IL cents, varying with the
efficiency OF the lamp.
The probable cost to you per month Is
clearly indicated by the following
analysis OF total charges made for resi-
dence lighting during June. Average
number OF lights per consumer, June 80,

per light for the month 21cts. In view

A Cruiser to be Sent There by the

The United States, being morally
responsible In conjunction with
Great Britain and Germany, for the
proper government Of the Samoa ISL

to send war ship there to assist the
vessels OF the other two contracting
parties, In suppre-sing the prevail
ing revolution against King

fairs in that country calls for irl-
mediate action on the part of this
government, under its alliance with
Great Britain and Germany, regard
less of the attitude OF the present ad-
ministration against q continuance
of the present arrangement. The
treaty provides for the preservation
of the autonomy of the islands under
existing cor ditions by the three
treaty making powers, and the res
possibility OF the United States
holds good until the treaty shall
have been modified or abrogated.
The country is in the throes of a
revolution, and the stability of the
government is seriously threatened.
Great Britain and Germany each
have two war ships on the ground
eager to seize any advantage that
may present itseif. The United
States : strong III civil officers at

the apparent willingness of the adj

directed that war ship be sent
there as soon as practicable to see
that American rights and interests
are properly respected.
The vessel most likely TO be select
ed for this service Is the cruiser

tensive repairs al the Mare Island
navy yard, near San Francisco.
This vessel has been out Of commits
sion since her return from Honolulu,
where she was stationed during the
mOmentous events attending the
overthrow of the Hawaiian
monarchy, in which her officers and
crew played such an important and
highly creditable part. She Is one
of the Roach cruisers" and Is q
sister ship TO the Atlanta. She has
cruised III almost every part of the
world, and has highly creditable

commanding officer on her next

added: II should prefer to close my life

Rossinl, when you enter Il room, the very

Then turning to the company he con-
tinucd: Announce, for instance, Nj. le

Pompciian business Notes.

A number of business announcements

little city to whose daily life the energy
of Vcsuvius has lent kind of immor-

matters of daily life, announcements Of
forthcoming gladiatorial games, cdicts
of magistrates, wine sellers attempts to
captivatc customers, rewards for lost or
stolen property, houses for sale or to he
let and other things of that sort.
We learn from one announcement
that Il glass of wine could be got for
as-about 3 farthings while for asses
one could drink real Falernian. Another
inscription informs us that Il dcnarins
about IA pence-was paid for wash

April, is carefully recorded by the writ

the owner Of the tunic must be left un-
