heathenism, and the less we say about
it the better for our reputation as a
Christian nation.
Speak of us enjoying true nation
of liberty and justice 1t is only a
few month ago that aSalvation Army
member, a Miss Cox, was arrested and
punished for preaching what she con-
siders the teachings of Christ, on the
streets of Denver, Col. And the per-
secutions of Adventists, because they
strictly obey the command of Goo:
Six days shalt thou labor, but the
seventh day thou shalt keep holy !;
show us plainly how the notion of
Christian liberty is.
And justice! Heaven how blind
she is The ex-treasurer Taylor of
South Dakota got years for stealing
so and SO many thousand dollars, and
poor workingman in the establish
ment of another eminently Christian
gentleman, Mr.. Armour, of Chicago,
who picked up a mouthful of pork
from the floor and ate it, was SEN
fenced to three years. Both were
allowed to keep the larger part of
their stealings to enjoy when they
get free. This is justice as practiced
by this Christian nation.
Wonder what Gen. Baker would
call an untrue nation of justice?

JOHNSON IN FRISCO.
He Keenly Feels the Disgrace
Brought Upon Himself.

Sheriff Wyllie has arrived at
San Francisco with Henry John
son, arrested here recently on
charges of forgery and embezzle-
ment committed in Iowa about a
year ago. The amount said to
have been taken by Johnson foots
up $4,000. The fugitive managed
to elude his pursuers and reached
California. He was accompanied
by his wife and children. After
visiting several towns in the
State he finally settled in Berke-
ley, coming to the islands from
that point. The authorities of
Muscatine county never relaxed
their efforts to find the fugitive,
and in some way they learned that
his wife was living in Berkeley.
An officer was sent there to watch
her movements, it being believed
that she would attempt to join her
husband, thus revealing his where
abouts.
After watching the house for
several weeks the officer learned
that Mrs. Johnson was about to
leave for Honolulu. The authori-
ties in Iowa were Immediately no.

to the Hawaiian capital to arrest
the fugitive.

Johnson says his shortage was
brought about by his having too
much confidence in his own ability
as speculator. He and one of his
bondsmen engaged in big land
deal, and being short of money he
appropriated the amount, thinking
that he would be able to replace it
In a short time. The venture
failed, and Johnson. to escape inn
prisonment, was forced to leave the
State. Sheriff Wyllie and his
prisoner departed for the East on

priately placed, and here is the point
where the skill and taste of the hair
dresser come in. To women who ar
range their own hair it is suggested that
before new fashion is accepted as final
its effect on the profile be studied. The
hair at the back of the neck ought also
to receive attention. An otherwise pleas
ing contour is often marred by the un-
tidy struggling locks which ought either
70 be curled or carefully pinned up.
A couture for day wear consists in the
front hair simply waved and rolled and
finished in the new French coil at the
back The latest Partisan style for even
ing occasions has the bandeaux divided
in front and partly covering the ears at
the sides. Other styles accentuate the
tendency toward undulating bandeaux,

poufs and curls falling low on the neck
and secured by ornamental combs and
hairpins. ALICE VARNUM.

the purpose Of misleading those foolish
women who are always in haste to be

that find their way to the shop windows
before April are likely TO survive the

While it is quite futile to positively
assert that women will, before the dog

prevailing coiffures, there can be no
