HILO TEACHERS.
The Third Meeting Of the Hawai-.
ian Pedagogues.

The Teachers Union of Hilo
held their third meeting at the
Union School building.
A letter was read to the members
from the Maui Teachers Associa-
ton, asking their approval of GER
tain resolutions accompanying the
letter, and originating with the
Maui Association.
The resolutions were for the pur-
pose of calling the attention of the
Government to the need in our
nation Of a normal school to fit
teachers at home for our home
work. The resolutions met the en-
tire approval of the company of
thirtyEpresent, nearly all of whom
were teachers.
The programme which occupied
the day was as follows:

The Sofia drill was excellent,
interesting and entertaining, illus
trated as it was by the singing of
class from the Union School.
After some work with which
they were familiar, they succeeded
almost perfectly in the first read
ing of song which had been print
ed on the board and hidden from
them by screen.
The class recitation in language
by little people from the Foreign
School was also interesting and
well conducted.
Questions and discussions are
always in order after these recita-
tions, and benefit both those who
take part and those who are mere
ly listeners.
Papers were instructive, that on
Kindergarten work was accompani-
ed by display of gifts and appli-
ances. The Union hopes to have
class-work presented in future
meeting. 1t would prove equally
instructive, certainly, though not
so mirth-provoking, as the class
work lately performed by ten or a
dozen adults under Miss Beyer's
direction at a social entertainment
at Wainaku.
The Question Box produces
questions like these: Is it well
for the pupils to correct each other
in reading classes? Discussion
Does it not make timid, hesitant
readers still more nervous? Does
it not detract, in the mind of those
who make corrections, from the
general interest and connection of
the paragraph being read? Or,
How early in the course do you
begin to teach spelling by letter?
Answer: About the second half of
the chart.
There is always lively talk over
the questions, which are six or
eight in number.
a vote was taken during the
meeting to invite all the clergy of
Hilo district to become honorary
members of the Union. The con-
stitution specifies that call who
have an interest in teaching may
become members"

There's roast beef, fowl and
ham aud knives for cutting
each separate article. For
beef, we have the celebrated
French Cook Knives that stand
without an equal for kitchen
work. Then there's the long
"Jointed," built expressly for
carving fowls. In the hands
of anyone, the obstacle in the
way of finding the second
joint is removed, the jointer
gets there while you are think
ing about it. And when you
get to ham-good sweet ham,
you want a long thin knife
that will carve so you can see
the steel through the slice.
We have the knives for this
class of work and they're good
ones. The French Cook
Knives are not remarkable for
beauty, but they are away
up for use.
For bread or cake, get a
Clauss Knife; it is always IN
condition, because your cook
cannot use it for cutting meat
or splitting kindlings, it's
made for bread or cake, and
will cut without making
crumbs. No other knife will
do as we'll as theyClauss for the
purpose.
AS soon as the Iwalani
matter is definitely settled,
we expect to receive an ord
er from the government for
material enough to fence Neck
er island with the Jones Locked
Fence. Economy is the order
of the day and when the gov
eminent can get a better arti-
Gle for eight cents than it
usually pays IL cents for it
will get it.

Porfumed Bags.

Bags of every shape and size. filed
with cotton wool and sweet-smelliDg
powders, are made of silk and bro
cade to hold numerous small trif1eS
Round bags of silk covered with lace
are used for carrying powder puffs
about in the pocket. Heart-shaped
pieces of cardboard, slightly padded
with scented powder, make capital
jacket pincushions. Lavender pill
lows are intended for the couch and
are made of satin or silk and filed
with lavender sprigs. A long layer
of cotton batting is parted in the
middle and the sprigs are laid upon
it, as it would take too long for the
full thickness to be penetrated by the
odor. A pretty cover is handpainted,
with knots of lavender ribbon for
each corner. Bath bags are made
of cheese cloth and saturated layer
of chamois leather which is redolent
of altar of roses or violets. The fill
ing is composed of strips Of perfumed
rose soap, almond meal and powdered
orris root. This mixture ooZes
through the cheese cloth as soon as
the hot water reaches the bag. An
old rose pink satin bag with gauze
butterfly secured in the middle is
convenient little stowaway for vim

KANSAS RAILROADS.

The board of county commissioners Of
Douglas county rejected the PROPOSE
ton of the Santa Fe Railroad company
to pay the taxes due there on the basis
of the assessment of 1898 without the
penalty. The board held that it had no
power to remit the penalty, and thought
also. that the railroad would soon pay
the amount due, with the penalty. This
is the second proposition rejected by
the board.
Land Commissioner John E. Frost, of
the Santa Fe, for month past has been
collecting the products of the country
grown along the line of the Santa Fe
railroad, to be sent to the StuttgarGt
museum as permanent exhibit. Some
time since, the German consul at Chica-
go requested President Reinhart to
collect such an exhibit 1t includes
specimens of all the ores from the Rocky
mountains, of woods, Goals, grain and

specimens grown in California alone. A

The Pulse and the Temperature.

II you take a thermometer on a
hot summer day, and watch it until
it runs up underathe influence of the
sunshine to 90.4 degrees you will see
it when it reaches that point, at the
exact temperature Of your tody, if
you are in normal health. Your
temperature may tluctuate fraction
above or below 98.4, according to
the time of the day or night, but it
never varies to any extent until fever
or some other kind of disease sets in.
Then the temperature begins to do
what the pulse would not do, tell
just how dangerously sick the person
is. And one of the very strange
things about is that it, does not
vary many degrees, from this normal
point Of 1874, degrees 20 matter how
Ill the patient may become

up to 104 or l05, and sometime to

Sometimes, as in case of choloFa it

A tiny thermometer, called elm
