tion for our New England prosperity. We
have gone great ways from those early
days. hold that one of the great discover
les of this century is the moral and intellectu-
al power of women, and their applicability.
We all know the grand record of our women
in the struggle against slavery In the civil
war. Too many of us are content to lead
lives of selfish ease, unconcerned with public
| affairs. Here Mrs. Howe urged the ladies
to spend less time on the frivoties of life,
and give more time to the reading and study
Ing of such books as would improve and edu.
cate. The wOmanly element Is one of the
most important factors in our country to-day.
The great Napoleon said, the great need Of
his time was mothers, and he gave orders for
the better education of the girls, who would
soon be the mothers of his subjects. The
women of the country are deprived OF power.
Your old clothes man can vote but your ma
tive born American woman, however fntelli-
gent she may be, cannot vote. although she
may pay taxes. The first suffrage convention
was held in Worcester, Mass, 40 years ago.
William Lloyd Garrison, Wendell Phillips,
Theodore Parker, Lucretia Mott, Lucy Stone
and Others were present. They were in adj
vance of their time, but on the right track.
She spoke of the early death OF Theodore
Parker and of the priceless labor recently fin
ished by Lucy Stone. She said: When ]

women reformers l have been privileged to

the sublimities of living and wonder that such
as l am spared to lift the hand of benedictlon
over their graves. We stand upon the ground
which they won for suffrage, and until it
shall have been fully gained, let us not weary
in our work. She closed by referring to the
grand results gained in the west and urged
that we follow their noble example. While
collection and new members were being So
lcited, Mr.. Shelly of Putney sang, in a beau
tiful and impressive manner, ''The Lifted
VEIL" and Mrs. Howe gave her story of her
famous song as reported in another column.

THE HAWAIIAN CANDLE NUT.
\ Tree that l. Useful in Many Ways to
the Sandwich Islanders.

In all the valleys of the Hawaiian
Isles the tourist notices a tree with a
quiyering leaf shch is light green ON
the under side and dark on the top.
which he is told i the kukui or candle
nut. 1t IS so named from the fact that
IN ancient times the-kernelS of the nuts
We're strung on the midrif of the cocoa
leaf and used n torches: rs the upper
most kernel burned off the next ignited,
and 80 it burnt until the last was con-
sumed.
The tree was n very useful one 10 the
Hawaiian, not only in furnishing light
at night but for many other reasons
The nuts are cncased in Il husk like our
walnuts but it frequently occurs that
two are formed in the same husk The
kernel is extremely rich in oil. which
has been expressed and used for house
painting, although it Is but poor sub
stitute for linseed, in that it is difficult
10 get it TO dry, and it always has 4
peculiar 0dor. The natives used the
oft Is an external remedy for some
diseases. and especially as an aid IN
parturition. Should YOU collect some OF
the nuts YOU will find them good eating.
but | should advise that you stop al one
or two, or YOU will find YOU have an
emetic and a cathartic which will GER
tainly respond muy pronto, as the
MeXicaus say.
The natives roast the nuts in the
ashes. and, having removed the she'll.
crush the kernels to a paste mixing
them with salt and pepper. This is one
OF the most delicious and appetizing
tests imaginable. and IS an essential ele-
meut to good feed Of raw fish and poi.
1t may be that if some of our cntcrpris-
ing capitalists would 20 into the manu-
facture of inimOna, a. the natives call
this paste, he might find an cver-in-
creaslng market for it. 1t certainly IS
preferable to the suspicious Russian
caviare. The burnt she'll of the kukui
was used for making an indelibe ink,
with which tattooiug was done. The
green husk contains an acrid juice which
has reputation as a remedy in diseases
OF the throat.
From the bark of the tree there exudes
gum called pilale, which is rs useful
as gum Arabic or gum tragacanth for
many purposes. 1t was also used as
medicine by the Hawaiians in cases of
dySenterN. Being harmless, 1t would be
useful in confectionery in making gum
drops agd jujubes.
The wood of the tree is somewhat Ike
our bass wood, and is of little value in
building or in fencing rs it rots very
speedily. Sometimes the natives made
canoes Of it, but never considered them
of any value. As the trees die off in
the forest their trunks and limbs are
found to be covered with an edible fun
gus, called pepeiao which was formerly
exported i'll great quantity to the
Chinese markets
To-day the kullui nut is largely used
in the manufacture OF iewelry, which is
much priced by tourists as mementoes
of 4 visit to the Paradise of the Pacific.
The shell is quite hard and takes bril-
liant polish, and can be had in black
and brown. -HalCaijaH Ga.cttc.

To add to the seriousness of the stu

One night after three hours of strug-
