appeared and the world can
look towards peaceful and
pleasant Christmas and the
closing of the year. Stability
and prosperity are showing
again in Hawaii, and the pro-
per time has come to establish
new homes, and embellish and
renovate the old. To facilitate
this we have imported a COM
plete stock of household goods,
and invite the public to call in
and inspect them. We have
Lamps in all qualities and
everybody can find just what he
wants in that line. Our Parlor
Lamps and Piano Lamps are
beauties; and we keep the prices
within reach of all. We offer
also a fine assortment of Hang
ing Lamps and Chandeliers in
beautiful designs. Lamps, how
ever, are not the only necessary
article in household. Our
Stoves have given absolute sat-
isfaction to our numerous pat
rons. We have Cooking Ranges
in several sizes and of the most
approved construction, in which
coal and wood can equally be
used as fuel. We can also re-
commend the "Dietz" Tubular
Stove for oil or gas. This ex-
cellent stove has been a very
handy and convenient furni-
ture. 1t can be used to do all
kinds of cooking-boiling, bak-
ing, frying, roasting-and it ex-
GELS all stoves in broiling. 1t
can be used in a room with
open doors and windows, or on
a porch or lanai where there is
free circulation of air. 1t is
portable and can be readily re-
moved from one room to an
other. 1t is absolutely free from
any taste or smell of oil as long
as kept clean, and it takes no
more work to clean it than a
common lamp. While the stoves
will do the heating business,
our Ice Chests will do the cool
ing business. We have large
sized Ice Chests suitable for
large household, and we have
them Of size suitable for a
small family. They are of the
latest pattern, and besides being
useful, are ornamental and
make handsome appearance in
a dining-room. To keep water
cool, we recommend a Water
Cooler, which we have in differ
ent varieties. These Water
Coolers are eminently suitable
for schools, churches and other
places where numerous people
gather. The most useful Christ
mas present which we can re-
commend is a Sewing Machine

"new" woman, you know-and

We are told that the reason why
the remaining political prisoners
were not released was that the Coun-
Gil was advised that the petitions
from these men asking for executive
clemency were not signed spontane-
ously but only though the persua-
sion of friends on the outside, and
perhaps with some reservation. We
are also told that there was no vote
upon the prisoners yet remaining in
Oahu jail. The Star is correct but

In Honolulu most newspapers are
open to the censure of the Outlook
The INDEPENDENT is an exception
although they gain information
which is not intended for publica-
tion, more frequently through 'leaks"
than by stealing or buying them.
The Star of last evening furnishes
good example. 1t publishes full
statement why the Council of State
refused to pardon all the political
prisoners. The Council did it's work
in secret session, but the Star never
theless knows all about it. We do
not believe that our contemporary
stole its information-it wouldn't do
it, you know-or bought tit
couldn't, you know-but we feel
that it must have obtained it from
some oath-bound member of that
august body.

How They Got. Rich.

When l talk to Il man who has made
fortune by advertising, wonder that
anybody who has anything to sell does
not go and do likewise One man told
me day or two ago that his concern
with nominal capital of 500, 900,
only $50, 900 of which was paid i'll, has
divided i'll single year among three
partners profits to the amount of $3.50,
600, and that exclusive of salaries of
$50, 900 and 500, 900 drawn by two
members of the firm. Ten or twelve
years ago this man was drug clerk on
q small salary i'll western town and is
now one of the millionaires of New
York. without advertising l might
have made IL living" he said, "but it
wis advertising that made me rich. and
advertising very simple commodity ut
that -
Another man, who bears similar tes-
t1mony, tells mo that his concern, which
began by investing $40, 900 year i'll ad-
vertising, increased the amount every
year according to their increase of bust
ness, and this year expects to spend 81, :
600, 900. Still another, who confined
himself entirely to the newspapers and
magazines i'll tho exploitation of his
speciality, never having touched a dead
wall, fence or the broad side of a barn
with poster or paintbrush, and never
employing salesman, has cool mil
hon sailed down i'll real estate, keeps
his yacht and spends most of the year
abroad in luxurious living.
Many other men of my acquaintance
resting in ease and wealth have told me
stories of their own experience with the
same moral. Some day am going to
print these stories and give the names
of the heroes. Major Handy in Chicago

Range Of Fashion.
Sleeves no longer stick out above tho
shoulders. The fullncss falls downward
toward the elbows, and this cxaggcration,
though inartistic, is not nearly so much so
rs that with which we were but too famil-
iar some months ago. From tho elbows to
tho wrists all is tight and close fitting for
morning wear, sensible shape that keeps
the sleeves well out Of tho way of tho hands
But for dresses of ceremony tho sleeves are
often open and very wide ut tho wrists,
showing beautiful Innings ond much trim
ming, with inner close sleeves for the pro-
lection of the arms. This is rcverting to u
very old fashion, but there is nothing new
under the sun in dress. All is resurrection
and revival
Without asserting positively that fashion
begins to show symptoms of u decided
change 1T Is safe to say that the present
mode, whose general features have been
the same for Il comparatively long time, is
not likely TO last unaltercd very much lon

measures to suppress this expense
The minister held 4 consultation with
the president of the tribunal and tho
two agreed that the Office of jailcr might
be abolished. The prisoner, required to
guard himself all alone, would not fail
to escape, and this would solve the
question to tho satisfaction of all
The juiler was thcreupon sent back to
his family, and one of the under cooks
OF the palace was simply required to
carry, morning and evening, food to the
prisoner. But that gentleman made no
attempt to recover his liberty.
One day indeed when they had failed
to provide him with nourishment no
coolly presented himself to claim it, and
henceforth it was his custom, in order
to save the cook u journey, to come Mt
meal hours and eat with the servants of
tho palace, with whom he had become
friendly.
After breakfast he would take stroll
rs far as Monte Carlo. Occasionally he
would enter the Casino and risk few
francs at play. When he won, he would
treat himself to good dinner at one of
tho leading hotels, then he would re-
turn to his prison and carefully lock the
door from the inside.
He never slept out single night.
Tho situation was becoming difficult,
not for. the condemned man, but for his
judges
Once more the court assembled and
it was decided that they should invite
the criminal to depart from the states

The supreme court was dumfounded.

The outcome was it was decided they
should offer the prisoner a pension of
