ART PRoDrcrIoNs are becoming quite
in demand for identifying and making
our homes attractive. Nothing adds
more to the social appearance of a resi-
dence, than to see the walls tastefully
decorated with beautifully framed pict-
ures, especially when painted by the
lady of the house. A few lessons as
must convince every lady of taste, that
it is a double recompense for the small
amount invested, as they have work of
their own, while becoming experts in
this beautiful art.

time when such an effort is being
made to Americanize it, as in the de-
sign of our new one cent stamp.

adopted which is quari .rly, first and
fourth stripes of the national banner,
second and third, a bail argent on

"The white ball with which the
second and third quarters are charged
was an ancient emblem OF the coun-
try called puloulou, and they were
placed at the right and left of the
gateway or door of the kings house
TO indicate protection or place of
refuge, TO which persons might flee
from danger and be safe.
"rhe triangular flag at the fess
point was an ancient flag Of the Ha-
waiian chiefs which was raised at sea
above the sail of their canoes,
and the sail at that time being
of a peculiar construction, it presented
very beautiful appearance. 1t was
also placed in a leaning position,
across two spears in front of the Kings
house, to indicate both tabu and pro-
Puela and the name of the cross on
which it lies ALA.
''Both the balls anu flag had on
some occasions a religious significa-
ton, but their appropriateness to a
coat of arms results from the above
characteristics.
''The external ornaments of the es-
cutcheon consists of a crest, which is
a crown and two supporters, men
clad III the ancient feather cloak and
helmet Of the islands, the one bearing
u kahili and the other a spear as in
the professions of former times. The
crown is ornamented with the taro
leaf. The drawings of all these en-
blems and ornaments, was taken from
the original articles presented 10 Cap
tain Cook by Kaleiopuu in 177S. The
design was original by the lamented
Haalilio.
