than you have been used to paying for
inferior work right along.
AS a matter of fact, the ExPERT( y who
cleans your watch with pair of bellows
and a crow-bar for so cents makes more
money than the honest workman who
does an. honest job and charges an
honest price.
Because your watch is returned to you
running fairly well, it is no criterion that
it has been properly repaired. The great
ANNOYANCE attendant upon the repair
ing Of watch, is that 80 out of SO cannot
tell If the work is well done-but are
satisfied if the watch is keeping some
where near the correct time.
Who can see the jewel protrudlng hall
way out of the plate, or worse, SUNK down
through the plate, fastened In with
little glue, or hammered In with sledge.
How often the EXPERT grinds OF the
broken staff, sinks the jewel little
lower, tells you he has put In a new
staff and charges you little less than
the price and you 60 on your way relolc-
ing. But some day you will discover the
fraud, such work cannot last long. 1t ls

cover to your sorrow. =.

Gable to Hawaii.

From a semi-oficial source it is
learned that the policy advocated
by President Cleveland toward 30
amending the Hawaiian treaty as
to allow an English cable to be
landed upon Hawaiian soil will
not be approved by the American
Congress. The sentiment Of that
body is decidedly against chang
ing the treaty with this country,
giving it the right to cede territory
to a foreign power. In event of
war between the United States and
England, the latter would have full
control of dispatches, which state
of affairs is not looked upon with
favor by American Congressman.

4 LUCKY YOUTH,
He Follows the Scriptures and Does
Not Fight.

1t is reported of a native youth,
that on being asked with another
to join in the late uprising against
the Government, he proposed that
divine guidance be sought in the
matter. On the proposition being
accepted, the three natives had re-
course to a Bible. One named a
book, another a chapter and the
third a verse. The passage thus
selected proved to be Matt. 4 Il,
which has in it this striking text {:
"Thou shalt not tempt the Lord
thy God" This was taken by the
young man as a message unfavor-
able to the rebel undertaking, and
he did not go to the front, although
he was possessed of firearms.
His two friends went, for their
minds were already made up, and
refused to accept the application of
the text. Later, on hearing Of the
failure Of the undertaking and of
the capture of his friends, he was
heard to remark that, after all, his
view of the teaching of that Scrip
ture was the correct ons.-The
Friend.

Whilst we are at all times ready
and willing to do every conceiv-
able kind and condition of a job
would it not pay you better to

John NJ. Ryne. of Moline, engaged
a sleigh yesterday afternoon. came
10 Rock Island. and met Victor VAN
deslin. a friend residing at Cam
bridge, whom he had not seen FIR a
long time. Elated over the renewal
of old acquaintanceship. John and
Victor suggested little snake-weed
extract indulgence. They took a
few, then they took few more. In
fact, they imbibed a little too freely.
and both got outside Of pretty good
jags. They both got into the sleigh
and started to drive around town in
a reckless manner. In turning the
corner of Sixteenth street and Sec
ond avenue the sleigh was capsized,
and the drunken occupants dragged
a little distance on their shirt fronts.
Ryde got the worst of it, having his
right cheek cut and q severe cash in
his right eye. while his companion
received few scratches about the
face. Their injuries didn't seem to
bother them. for they got into the
cutter and started down Sixteenth
street, where Officer RYAN discovered
their careless maneuvers and ar
rested them. This morning Magis-
trate Schroeder fined them s. and
costs each. This morning Ryde was
q pitiable spectacle, his eve being
swollen to such proportions as to
present very much the appearance of
an egg plant hanging on the right
side Of his probosis.
