ships have their woes the same
as other folks. 1t has been the
impression Tor a century or more
that it was the poor sailor who
suffered hardshipS, and that the
captains and owners basked in
perpetual sunshine. 1t is no
doubt true that holes were bored
in the hull of the Gayhead and
that the fire was incendiary, but
the idea promulgated that the
officers and crew were a very
happy family must be taken cnm
Crane sails. Men do not attempt
criminal oGenses on their en-
plovers without some reason for
it. There is really no way of
telling whether the sailors on the
Gayhcad have been Illustrating
in pie during the voyage or
whether they have even had the
regular allowance of "duf " or if
the articles in the "slush box"
have been issued at San Francis
co pri Ces. But we have reason
to guess that such is not really
the case Judging from the regu-
IatiOn treatment accorded sailors
on whale ships.
The celebrated Dietz Oil Stoves
sold by us are acknowledged to
be the best and safest stoves for
quick heating manufactured. We
have sold a number OF these
stoves during the past few
months and they have IN every
instance given the purchaser
better satisfaction than was en-
peCted. With the Dietz Oil Stove
you can fry, bake, roast or broil
without the slightest danger of
explosion and with absolutely no
odor from the oil. They are sup
piled with utensils necessary for
cooking anything in the edible
line. The price is reasonable and
the cost of fuel amounts to about
three cents a meal.
The Clauss Bread Knife is the
cheapest and best for the purpose
manufactured. For dollar you
get three separate knives; one
for bread, one for cake and one
for pairing fruit or vegetables.
They are manufactured of finest
ALUMINIUM steel and with handles
that will not become loose
through contact with hot water.
The Avery sugar land nipple
ment for which we are sole
agents for the Hawaiian Islands
are most satisfactory articles for
use on plantations. Letters re-
Ceived from managers OF var Gus
plantations speak in the highest
terms of them and commended
them highly for their economic
qualities as well as the manner
in which work is performed
through their aid. We have a
full stock of the Stubble Diggers,
Stubble Shavers, Fertilizer
Distributors and Disc Cultiva-
tors and will be pleased to furnish
photographs and information
concerning them to parties inter
ested in plantations.
While "all the ills that flesh is
heir to" may not come from
drinking impure water it GER
tainly IS part of the cause. If
you believe that unflltered water,
whether it come from an artesian
well or from reservoir, is pure,
Just draw a bucket full and let it
stand forty-eight hours, The
millions OF wriggling things you
will find in the bucket at he end
of that time will convince you OF
YOUR error. We sell two makes

uiaCtured. The improved Stone
! Filter has been tested for years
and given satisfaction in every
home in which it is used.
They are easily cleaned and have
no intricate parts to take out and
no lining to become foul. We
have also the celebrated Pasteur
Filter about which SO much has
been said and written in the
Scientific journals. These filters
are highly recommended by
physicians as being thorough in
their work.
When the spring time comes
is time to think about painting
We have the best paint, the
greatest variety of colors and we
sell them at the lowest prices OF
anyone in Honolulu. We claim
that our Hendry's Ready Mixed
Paints are superior in quality
and will go further than any
ready mixed paints in the mark.

their color and gloss for a longer
period. We have them for in,
