The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1895-05-25
Nay IS 1895.

Doses of the islands is tested,
approved and certain means of g
sending and receiving messages
day and night, in season and out {
Jl season. Other countries and {
people have more funds for eX-
pcrimerts than Hawaii. Did |
YOU ever notice the number and
OF schemes that the
ncwSpau present to their |
readers A writer will in a few
inches of space advance sugges-
tons that may require barrels OF
money and years OF toll to re-
duce or elevate to utility. Then
they may never give the matter
another line and mention it only /
in conversation as testimony |
that The few men who work down I,
their souLcaseS for the commu-
nifty are slow. The real way to
do in the editing business is to
generally provide interesting
matter along certain lines, then
when YOU see that the citizens
really-want something done and
propose to do it, Just keep re-
minding them OF it. No news
paper can get more that six
inches beyond public opinion
without "corking' itself. II the
reader agrees he'll say the editor
has a good head on him. If he i
thinks differenton what the paper
says, he'llremark that the editor
| is fool. And this thing of &C
cusing newspapers OF lying needs
ventilation. If the paper told
half the lies its friends wanted it |
to, it would have the full OF |
/ every other column nothing but
| lies every issue. They say in the |
States that the New Woman
still thinks pretty well of the old
man and continues to drag his !
leans" for silver. Besides the
ordinary assortment of males
who are non persona grata toI
thinking men. in Honolulu wei
have. observers have noted, two
classes of nuisanCes on two legs.
One is the man willing to agree
with the majority providing the
majority thinks as he does. The
other is the very numerous indi-
vidual who thinks he should be
general manager of this or that
I"whole works, when he is fitted
| by education, training and native
ability ior about the humblest
billet in the establishment. These
men are simply mot next to
themselves" The principal
local event at hand is the Cele-
bration on the 24th of the 10Th
birthday of Her Majesty Veto
ria, Queen of Great Britain and
Ireland, Empress OF India, De
I fender OF the Faith, etc.
= One of the greatest inCOnven-
q fences in connection with a
windmill is the leaking of the
, tank. When the water is low
the tank shrlnks and OF course
leaks. If YOU examine our model
of the Patent Non-Shrinking
Tank YOU will see its advantages
The tank is made with a deep
: channel or groove IN the top Of
; the slaves. This groove is filled
= with water from pump discharge
which, by absorption, passes into
the pores OF the wood, keeping
the entire tank moist at all times
and preventing shrinkage. The
incoming water from the pump
I discharge first fills the channel,
+ and the surplus passes into the
Y tank, flowing down the inner
t surface of the tank wall. The
, object of this is to keep the joints
tight.
While we are talking of water
II supply we wish to keep before
II your mind the superiority Of the
II Improved Stone Filter. The
f water comes through this pecu
liar quality of stone as pure ano
clear as it possibly can be. TC
clean the stone just brush the toI
: every morning.
II Next to having pure water t.
c drink, is having comfortable anc
O clean bathing. Our cast iron
l.. enameled bath tub. nicklC
plated fittings are such delight
ful things that once partaking 0
$ their pleasures you leave then
" with sigh.
If We are a long ways from Bos
c ton, but there are quite number
"a OF residents here from that par
OF the universe. 1t is said, anC
no doubt true, that one OF The
chlet things that make Boston
e people so clever is their diet o
c pork and beans. This is deli
It cious dish whether it max
$ brains or not, and lots OF othel
i. people like them too. The
only proper way to cook thu
. toothsome food is in eartherr
d ware pots made expressly tol
y the purpose. We have the pot:
= in two sizes tor large and SINAI
= families or for large or small
> appetites.
I'VE desire to call your atten
! ton to the fact that while speak.
= ing of specialties each week, we
: also keep up our stock OF staple
: goods. Our fiat solid ware is
ust as good as ever and new de-
. signs are being added constantly.
There is nothing that house
wife admires SO much as her
collection nj shining silver.
