The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1895-12-18

COUNTLESS essays are now being
produced ON the topic How to get
Rich" 1t is related that Marshall
Field, one of Chicago's millionaires,
when asked how TO get rich replied
that the essential qualities to the
pursuit Of money were industry,
economy and a cheerful disposition.
A reform lecturer in Chicago
about the same time and in the
course of his lecture said: HE
who would become very rich now
adays must lay aside all ideas o.
honesty and become constituencies
and INSCRIPTIONS" An essayest
then concludes that making money
beyond the ordinary capacity to
earn money is a gift. Every man
cannot make money more than
every man can become a great ora
tor, great poet or a great painter.
Industry is an aid, but a minor
one; so is economy. But man
who lays aside all ideas of honesty
will find it hard to get rich.

"DoN'T forget that Hilo is still

TyibnNe. This assurance is timely
and gratifying. 1t removes what
might have been described as the
suspicion of misconception. There
has for some time been an impress
sion seemingly we'll grounded, tina,
the persons now declaring Hilo to be
in the Republic Of Hawaii, really
thought the Republic Of Hawai-
was or should be in Hilo. If these
persons have now arrived at al
understanding of the actual situa
ton, the awakening is a subject fol
felicitation all along the line.

SAKL, STEAMERS, ETC.

Some later date newspapers than
the last from America were brought
by the S. S. China from the Orient
this morning. But there is no men-
ton of the message of the President
of the United States to the Congress
now in session. Perhaps the docu-
ment was not yet out on the 9th
inst, or perhaps there was nothing
in it the Yokohama papers cared to
use.
Japan's parliament is handling a
large volume of proposed legisla-
ton. 1t is stated that besides the
bill for increasing the tax on saki,
there is another prepared with a
view to augmentiug the revenue.
1t is a new registration bill, which
requires not only land, houses and
ships, which have been registered
under the present registration law,
but also births and marriages to be
similarly registered OH payment OF
certain fees.
1t is figured that the revenue
from saki, now 1900, 900 yen,
will be increased $1,000, 900, an
nually. All this money, together
with the Chinese indemnity, is to
be applied to army and navy ex-
tension.
The Cheu- Yuen, former Chinese
warship, has been foated from the
dry dock by her new owners.
A Chinese man-of-war with sew
eral steam launches and junks, says
the China Gazette, are now busily
engaged in hunting for the tor
pedoes that were laid in the North
Channel during the war scare, and
which had probably been forgotten
ever since.
Captain Lang, Britisher, is to be
placed in entire charge of the Chin
csc navy and will reorganize it.
Japan views the arrangements with
nervousness and alarm.
The strongest corporation Japan
has yet produced will establish a
steamship line between that country
and Europe.
Stringent regulations for the ex-
clusion and control of Chinese as to
Corea, have been proclaimed.
Cuban news via Yokohama is to
the effect that the rebels are much
weakened and that they despair of
recognition by the United States.
France formally announces the
annexation of Madagascar.
A most astonishing growth is
noted in the cotton mill business of
Japan.
The circulation in Japan of a
paper published in the United States
by japanese has been prohibited.

San Francisco paper that Dur

the Holmes case in Philadelphia,

THE DRINK HABIT.
A Simple Way to Over
come Its Evil Effects.
WHAT DRINK DOES TO THE NERVES
AND How 1T DERANGES THE
SYSTEM.
The After Effects of Spirituous
Liquors on the Sympa-
thetic Nerves, Stomach
and Brain.-How TO
Prevent Them.
The Craze For Drink. ---HOw to Still
1t By Natural Means.

The following is a plain explana.
tion of the effects of drink on the sys.
tenn; with some suggestions how tc
combat this evil.
Drink deranges the sympathetic
nerves, will even destroy this very
! important system
A tonic for the sympathetic nerves
must naturally be prescribed to pre-
vent or overcome those effects.
An ordinary nerve tonic" would
not do this.
The ordinary nerve tonic is not
| really tonic but sedative. 1t does
not restore but subdues, deadens
temporarily the oyersensitive nerves.
The sympathetic nerves need ton
ing, need a nerve food to start them
working right when they are out OF
order and Dr. Shoop's Restorative
gives them just the needful tonic
1t is the only medicine that acts di-
rectly upon the sympathetic nerves.
The symptoms of disorder Of the
sympathetic nerves caused by drink
are trembling, irritableness, headache,
dizziness, nausea, vomiting, general
depression, etc.
They can be relieved and cured by
DR.. Shops Restorative. which
promptly counteracts the i'll effects of
intemperance.
The craving for drinks is one of the
strongest proofs of the great power
which the sympathetic nerves have
over the human system.
The craving is caused entirely by
the diseased sympathetic nerves.
The brain may rebel against it, but
the intense desire for stimnlart.
caused by the disordered sympathetic
nerves. is generally stronger than the
will power.
To dispel the craving we must tone
up the sympathetic nerves.
We mast give them medicine
which will bring them fresh life and
strength to enable them to do with
out the stimulant.
This can surely be done with Dr.
Shops Restorative.
DIR. Shops Restorative is the only
medicine which has ever been pre-
pared to act especially on the svmpa-
thetlc nerves.
1t has cured many confirmed drink
ers OF their diseased appetite. and has
restored their lost will power. 1t acts
by gentle natural means and there
are no dangerous possibilities attend
ing its use.
Il cures dyspepsia, liver disease,
kidney complaints, heart palpitation
and other disorders of the internal
organs and root of which is diseased
sympathetic nervous system 1t re-
moves the cause and with it the dis
ease.

Taxing Church Property. An Economic
Question.

Question.
A very interesting concensus of
opinion on the Church Taxation ques-
ton is given IL another column. A
noticeable increase of interest in the
matter is manifesting itself through
out the nation. Under present laws
abuses have grown up which any fair
minded man, who takes the trouble to
investigate, will admit should be
abated
1t is not a religious question. It
has nothing to do with Protestants.
Catholics or Jews as such. Neither
is it party question. For either the
Republican or Democratic party to
espouse the principle Of taxation and
the other oppose it would be unwise
even dangerous 1t is purely an
economic question question of the
rights and duties OF property
question of finance. The editor
will not burden his readers at the
present with an extended argument
either pro or con, but wishes merely
to suggest the nature Of the question
as he views it and to invite free and
fair discussion of the same in the col
umns of the HERALD.
1t is not probable that any change
will be made in the law at the present
session of the legislature though
bill Of some kind may pass the assem-
bly,. but by 1897 the intelligence and
patriotism Of the state ought to have
'ulated and expressed an opinion
that will enable the legislature to pass
law that shall be wise and just aud
satisfactory to the people.
