liar companies have successfully trans
acted business for several years. Attor-
ney AdOlph Moses said yesterday:
In issuing policies to applicants the
company would have, OF course to
consider the moral risk, but this applies
largely 70 fire insurance companies, and
they are successful. Only people of
the best reputation would be accepted.
An inquiry would be made into their
anteceGenIs. just as is done every day
by the guarantee companies when asked

CURED the company's agents would take
hold vigorously and make a very thor
ough investigation. With all these pre-
cautions there would be little chance for
fraud. As an extra safeguard the ad-
justment of a loss would be made through
the courts.
- suit would be fled in court of rec
ord and the evidence taken before pay
ment of the indemnity. Thus 2 record
Of the case would be in the official rec
ords, and should fraud be afterward dis
covered we could hold the insured on
charge of perjury. Companies in other
lines of insurance simply require af.davits
to be made, but that is not much Of
safeguard. Many prominent business

Splendid Picture of Trainers Of
That lneument. hY Williams.

J. J. Williams has on exhibition
at his studio a picture of no little
historical Importance in this coun-
try. 1t is a group crayon of the
members of the Constitutional
Convention. The picture repre-
sents the group in front of the
Government building. Prominent
figures in the picture are those OF
President Dole, w. o. Smith,
Minister King and S. NJ. Damon,
while the other members are artist
ically grouped about them.
The picture is a fine piece OF
work from an artistic point of
view, a feature that is true of all
Mr.. Williams handiwork. Each
face is brought out with wonderful
clearness, and the likenesses are
remarkably well executed. The
picture is mounted in a beautiful
frame of white and gold, and will
probably adorn the walls of the
Executive building. 1t will be OF
great value from a historical point
of view.

Better Teach than G rumble at Law-Ee
Elections on Mr.. Carter's Idea-
by " Layman.'

Mr.. EDITOR The Friend and the
Anglican Church Chronicle have had
a mild passage OF arms anent saloons
and their keepers. The Friend invites
the aid of the Anglican Church in
making war upon them.
AS long as the latter have legal
right, derived from the body polite
through the law makers, to carry on
their business, would it not be better
il the Anglican and all other churches
were first to thoroughly post them
selves as to all the phases of the ques-
ton?
III alcoholic beverages are "good
creatures OF God" to be used with
thankfulness, why should any one
"make war" upon those selling them,
and the Anglican Church so holds,
and fights, inch by inch, the views
held by abstainers. 1t breaches tenn
perance, but not abstinence, excepting
for those who find it very hard or next
to impossible to practice it. There are,
OF course, men in the Anglican Church
who both practice and preach total
abstinence for all, but they are gener-
ally spoken of as fanatics. liz all
churches would post up and enlighten
their members as to the desirability
of their using as a beverage, anything
containing so pleasant, so insid1ous
and so dangerous a drug as alcohol,
they might then consistently make
war" but not till then.

ethics of the question, but If you Will

Announcement
Extraordinary

What is acknowledged to be the
oldest and most extensive business
house on the face of the globe, has
at last established branch in
Honolulu.
During the past twelve months we
have been negotiating with that re-
nowned firm, SANTA CLAUS & CO.,
and have finally received the sole
right to handle their goods in this
Republic. We are aware that others
are putting forth similar claims, but
we feel it our duty to warn the
public against them; their goods are
but feeble limitations of the genuine
article. They buy from agents who
have purchased from other agents,
and by the time the goods reach
here it would be difficult matter to
ascertain where they did come from
originally. Not so with us; we are

Little Nell Don't do it, Mr.. Howells.
Why want to push over Mr.. Dickens
tear tank because it is larger than yoursp
Moreover. in tearing down the Dickens
structure you are allowing the public
to look in and see the shavings with
which you stuff your own heroine and
the little monkey wrench with which
you turn on the sad yourself. We
writers, Mr.. Howells, owe it to each
other to avoid any falling out whereby
we may allow the people to discover
how we spread on our pathos, for the
public does not really want to know.
Mr.. Dickens was an author Of some
considerable merit, and I cannot see,
after travelling over some Of his ground
in the great city where he worked, why
every word Of his stories may not have
been absolutelytrue.
If Mr.. Howells can no longer weep

QUERIES AND ANSWERS.


Miss Blodgett of Rome, N. Y, asks:
els it correct for young gent to take
the arm of a young lady, or should the
young lady take hissen? Please answer
and oblige. .
That depends good deal on the cir
cumstances, Miss Blodgett, and the pre-
vailing customs where you live, for if
you live in Rome you should do as the
Romans do.
There are only two classes of males
who take the arm of lady while walk
ing or promenading One is the gent to
whom God saw fit to deny that soft and
subtle growth called brains and the
other is the gent who has overdone the
wassail business and is being steered
home by his unhappy wife. Do not,
Miss Blodgett, ever allow yourself to
become prop. It is not proper.
Evelyn, Cuyahoga, writes: ''Is it
right to make party call on a family
who has just given a successful funeral,
to which you have been guest?''
This is ticklish question. I should
want to know the people who gave the
funeral before made my party call
following it. Funeral etiquette is one
Of the most delicate affairs Of which
know.
A good rule, however, is to follow
the example of the gentleman at the
head Of the procession and make as lit.
tie fuss as possible.
Peagreen, Elk Horn Valley-Yes, in
calling at house where there are two
or more upon whom you are supposed te
make the call, you deal one card to
each.
Lillian Sucker, Bridgeport, Conn
writes: At what hour should young
man call upon his fiancee?
It all depends upon local customs,
Lillian. Just before breakfast is early
enough and any time after that. Fol
my own part, I was working on a morn
ing paper at the time I became the af
famed of my first wife. Ny days work
was done at 2 a. M, and on the way

these matters, Lillian, to the prompting

MR.. TRoTwooD's VACCINATION.
He Thought He Had tho Right Envelop>

He Thought He Had the Right Envelope,
but It Wasn't 60.
The humorous aspect Of vaccination
always impresses people who are not
vaccinated much more keenly and agree
ably than it does those who are vacci-
mated. But in a case which actually &C.
CURED last spring in the environs Of q
great city in which smallpox scare"
was proceeding the victim Of the oper-
alton was able, before all was done, to
see the humorous side of it. It was a
very peculiar case-so peculiar that un-
doubtedly it never happened before and
never will happen again.
Mr.. Trotwood, who lives in a suburb
few miles out Of the city, is thrifty
though not q penurious man and likes
to do with his own hands what he can
do as we'll as not. He was sure that he
could vaccinate himself. So he bought
small quantity of vaccine matter of
the best guaranteed quality, took it
home, and before he retired that night
vaccinated himself on the left arm.
Next morning he remarked casually
to his family at the breakfast table as
he reached around uneasily toward his
left arm, II vaccinated myself last night,
and, by George, it's taking too!''
"Vaccinated yourselfl'
Certainly did. Simplest thing in
the world. Did it just exactly as well
as doctor could do it. -
Mr.. Trotwood's family were all adj
miration, but before he went away for
the day Mrs. Trotwood, happening to
go to the bathroom, found upon the
shelf there an apothecary's envelope
marked vaccine matter" which was
sealed and had evidently never been
opened. She went to her husband.
PETER" she said, ''what did you
have your vaccine matter in?''
"Why, in an envelope. I got it at the
drug store in town and brought it out,
opened the envelope and used what
needed"
"But this envelope has not been open.
ed at ALP
Mr.. Trotwood was greatly perplexed.
why" said he, II certainly.
At this juncture Mrs. Trotwood burst
into hearty laughter and produced an
other little white envelope, which had
been opened, from the near vicinity Of
the other on the shelf
"Peter Trotwood," she exclaimed,
"I'n tell you what you've donel You've
been and vaccinated yourself with my
petunia seedsp'
It was true Mr.. Trotwood had taken
the wrong envelope and had carefully
vaccinated himself with petunia seeds,
and he was sure it was working" He
saw the humor of the situation and
laughed as heartily as any member Of
the family. Companion.
