Shredder
PATENTED UNDER THE LAWS OF
THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS.

The attention of Planters
and Agents is called to the
following letter from Mr..
JOHN A. SCOTT, Manager of
the Hilo Sugar Co., regarding
the working of the National
Cane Shredder, which he has
just introduced into the Mill
of that Company:
WAISAKU, Huo, HAWAII,
January I'D, 1894
Hon. Wa. q. IRWIN, Honolulu, H..
DEAR SIR:-In reply to yours OF IL
10Th inst. regarding the National Cane
Shredder furnished by the Universal
Mill Co. of New York, and erected by
the Hilo Sugar Co. this past season,
Iwould beg TO say, that ii has now been
In operation day and night during the past
three weeks working on plant cane, and
also hard ratoons, and it is giving me the
greatest satisfaction. The more / see of
its capabilities, the better pleased l am
that put il in, as l am satisfied that IL
will repay the original outlay in q short
time, in saving of labor, higher extrac-
ton, etc.
It is shredding from $50 to 400 tons of
cane every % hours with the greatest
ease, and it could shred a much larger
quantity If necessary. 1t delivers the
shredded cane in an even uniform feed
to the three roller mill, which receives IL
without the Intervention of any labor,
and as the cane is thoroughly shredded
or disintegrated it relieves the mill of a
great deal of strain, thus reducing the
liability of broken shafts, gearing, etc.
There is a saving of four "a men daily
on the mill, as only one man lis required
TO regulate the amount of cane delivered
by the carrier TO the shredder. II hes
increased the extraction from 4 TO
5 per cent.
The economical use of steam is gene
rally serious consideration in adding
new machinery, as In most mills the
boiler power is taxed to its highest limit,
as it was in this mill, and any increased
demand necessitated an additional boil
er. But l find that the shredder and the
three roll mill engines combined use nc
more steam than the three roll mill
engine did when working on whole cane,
while doing better work and more of Il.
and owing to the uniform feed on the
mill, the engine demands very little
attention.
The Megass from the shredded. Ane
makes superior fuel. and the fireA IN
have less difficulty in maintaining a uni
form pressure of steam than formerly.
/ will be pleased TO have a call from
parties interested, as it is necessary to
see the machine at work to fully app g.
ciate its capabilities.
l remain, very truly yours,
(Sig) JOHN A. SCOTT,
Manager Hilo Sugar Co.

Drink in the Tropics.

In answer to the question whether il

climates, as is often claimed, Mrs. Mary

Advances in Science.
The Natural Function of Digestion
at Last Perfectly Initiated.

We cannot 60 beyond a certain point in
imitation of natures handiwork. We
have never been able to give life to arti-
fetal eyes, limbs, etc.
We can initiate processes-when we un-
derstand them. Till a short time ago
scientists thought that the stomach digest
ed all our food. Under this erroneous inn
preston pepsin was always prescribed for
Indigestion.
Now we know positively that the stom-
ach digests only albumenous FOODS (meat,
eggs, cheese, etc. and that pepsin only
attacks albumens.
Scientists discovered the ferments and
the process by which starch (our most inn
portant food is digested, and Paskola was
the result of their discoveries.
To aid weak digestion starch food must
be cooked and digested before ii enters the
mouth. The best way OF doing this is en-
bodied in Paskola.
The free vegetable ferments in Paskola
aid in digestion OF other foods and relieve
all symptoms OF indigestion almost imme-
diately.
Paskola is not a medicine but simply a
pure natural starch food naturally predi
gested. 1t permanently cures where med
icine gives only temporary relief
What 1t will do for dyspeptics, anemcis,
consumptives and all people suffering
from thinness, mal-nutrition and wasting
diseases, is explained fully in 16-page
pamphlet which will be sent free on re-
quest.

The Curse Of France.

France is prominently wine coun-
try. and has been many times cited TO
Americans as a model country for tenn
perance. Many wine drinkers visit
France and see no drunkenness. And
yet the drink curse is present in France.
The Revue Chretienne of Paris says:
THE great black spot on the horizon is
alcoholism. No doubt its influence is
felt among all classes of society, but it
is especially popular plague-a recent
plague that has made itself sensible
within the past thirty or forty years.
Alcoholism is parvenu of the last
hour. and parvenu cosmopolite. 1t
speedily acclimates itself everywhere.
Since by heredity it has entered into
the blood and marrow of the people.
and has spread itself in the country as
it has in the city. not only physicians
have become alarmed, but also men of
the law and by degrees all intelligent
and rejecting persons. At the present
moment it increases and assumes the
proportions of a universal danger. The
race is struck in its vitals.-Christian
