/ Nearly every father who uses
tobacco, realizes that he is enslaved
| to habit which he breads to see his
child form, and yet his viii power Is
so weakened by this poison, that be
does not feel strong enough to break
the chains that bind him, and thus
demonstrate to his child that he is
true to all his convictions. How
needful, then, to work for the pre-
vention of the tobacco habit among
the youth! That tobacco is among
the most powerful of narcotic
poisons, no intelligent person will
deny; and yet because some men
have used the vile stuff for years,
and in spite Of it lived to a good old
age, comparatively little attention
has been given the subject, and the
evil is of such magnitude now, as to
alarm the most Indifferent. Without
doubt the tobacco habit is the most
universal scourge In America; for
while few men use alcohol who do
not use tobacco, thousands of Chris
tian gentlemen use tobacco who
would not use alcohol in any form.
When their sons are appealed to,
they often reply, "My father uses it,
and / do not propose to be better
than my father" Fathers what can
we say to this? The officials in the
United States navy tell rs that the
first question asked boy who would
enter the navy school is, ''Do you
use tobacco" They usually answer
no, and yet an examination of the
fingers betray the smoker, and
medical examination develops the
truth that ninety nine out of every
hundred applicants use the weed in
some form, and are rejected because
this nicotine poison has already
affected the heart. We are told that
100000 cigarettes are smoked every
year in New York city alone. Our
boys and girls are being ensnared in
the tolls of this vile invention of
Satan, and 1t is time we should real
ize our danger.-Mrs. Helen l.. Bull

National Cane Shredder
PATENTED UNDER THE LAWS or
THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS.

Mr.. John A. Scott, Manager
of the Hilo Sugar Company
gives the following wonderful
record of the working of the
NATIONAL CANE SHRED.
DER, which was erected by
their works at the commence
ment of the crop just har-
vested:
During the past week the
Hilo Sugar Company's mill ex'
ceeded any of it's former
records by closing the 125
hours grinding with an output
of 3004 tons. This is fully 10
per cent. more than the best
work of former years.
"The three roller mill being
26 in. by 81 in. and the two
roller mill 80 in. by 60 in. The
first mill doing this amount of
work in an efficient manner
and with great ease, compared
with work on whole cane,
owing to thorough preparation
of the cane by the National
Cane Shredder, recently cree
ted by the Company. And
by it's use the extrac-
tion has been increased from
3 per cent. to 5per cent. on all
kinds of cane, and in some
cases so per cent. has been
reached; the average being Is
tots per cent, according TO
quality.
Il continue to find the
megass from shredded cane
better fuel than from whole
cane.
"The shredder has been
working day and night for
seven months and has given
me entire satisfaction, having
shredded during that time
about seventy thousand tons
of cane, and a large part. of it
being hard ratoons.
"The shredder and engine
require very little care or
attention"

of these shredders may be seen

Nicholas and Princess Alix of Hesse, BY
insisting that she should not only renounce
but also publicly denounce the Lutheran
faith, In which she had been born and
bred.
She was perfectly prepared to enter the

to condemn the religious belief OF her pa
rents as heretical ana reprehensible, and
tolerance displayed by Father John Of

death bed, and who has now been appoint

many years her principal chaplain as well
as her adviser In matters ecclesiastical.
The British nation owes to him a deep
debt of gratitude for the sympathetic part
which he played at court during the death
of the Prince Consort and Is no eXaggera
ton to ascribe to his sensible advice and
benignant counsel much OF the success
which has attended the latter portion OF
Queen Victorias reign.
He was a very broad-minded man. and
