> Xxi AND PROHIBITION.

An article from a San Francisco
'aper, reprinted in yesterdays
BULLETIN, related the apprehen-
sions felt by California wine pro
lucers at the fact of the japanese
snki trades encroachments on
heir business with these islands
also at the reports OF a possible
otal prohibition enactment at
he regular session of the Hawai-
ian Legislature. Against both
Enenaces to their business the
California wine mon threaten a
movement for the abrogation of
he reciprocity treaty. The saki
question is a difficult one, in view
Of thu" most favored nation treaty
with Japan, but unless it is salts
sactorily dealt with in some way
both in the interests of the Ha-
saiian peoples health and of the
californian wine merchants good
rsill-this country will be likely
20 suffer. AS for the prohibition
scare, it is not likely to come to
anything beyond, perhaps, some
measure for the abatement Of gen
orally recognized evils of the leg
allied liquor traffic, together with
more stringent provisions added
20 the law against the unlicensed
sale of strong drink. This coun-
try's experience with opium pro-
hibiton will probably deter the
Legislature, even If a majority
may believe in the principle, from
making the experiment of outlaw
ing the importation, sale and |
man ufacture Of alcoholic beverages.
At the same time such remedies
&or the evils arising from the
liquor traffic as the Gothenberg
system and the South Carolina
iispensary plan might be dis
cussed with advantage in the
Legislature.

With regard to the recommen-
dation of the Commercial journal,
that skilled engineer ought to be
employed to make estimates on
certain discussed public works,
soma historical "reminiscences
come up. Tens of thousands of
dollars were spent in the not re-
mote past for the reports of skilled
engineers upon the improvement
Of the water supply. only to have
the costly reports discarded by
administrations succeeding those
that employed the high-priced
talent. Other skilled engineers
employed permanently on public
works were driven from their
places to make room for men who
were never engineers. but whom
it was deemed expedient by diff
ferent administrations to reward
for political services rendered.

Mexico and Central and South
American countries are sometimes
mentioned as importing cheap

seven Mexican dollars a day, to
go to San Jose de Guatemala for

woman some good advice wher
he refused to grant her I
divorce. The couple had beer
married three years and were
quite young, but they evident
Iy got along about as well as
most married people do. How
ever, the young woman thought
she ought to have a divorce
and filed a complaint against
her husband alleging cruelty.
The specific facts set forth
were that her husband fire.
quently slapped her, whether
playfuIly or not the complaint
does not state, and that once
he spoke Grossly to her. This,
however, was while the huS-
band was putting up a stove,
and therefore cannot be Won
dered at. On another occasion
the young wife says her huS-
band threatened her, but in
answer to the Judge she ex-
planned he had only told her
the proper thing to bring her
under subsection would be to
raise a family. But this poor
husbands greatest offenSe lay
in his feet. He had big ones
according to his wife, and on
one occasion he had the auda-
CITY to place them in her lap,
and she said, che had his boots
off,"
In refusing to grant divorce
on such trivial testimony Judge
Ogden gave the wife a little
fatherly lecture. You can
hardly expect the court to grant
you divorce upon such teSti-
mony. If we were to grant
you divorce upon that show
ing there would not be a
couple in Oakland that would
not be entitled to a divorce. 1t
is impossible to find human
nature that is ideally perfect.
There are many little imper-
fectionS that education and as
ISOLATION will smooth off, and
people must exercise
forbearance and patience. In
stead of widening the breach
close it up. A young couple
such as you are will find mar
ried life a very happy existence
if you will return to your home
and not do just what you have
been doing heretofore"
That Oakland Judge had
some sense, indeed it is APP
parent that his wisdom arose
from experience. 1t is a pity
there are not more like him. If
there were there would be
fewer divorces and more hap
py homes. What is home
without a mother-in-IaW and
the privilege of putting your
feet on your wife's lap without
putting your boots on first.
All of which reminds us of
another little story. By the

ii WOULD RATHER DIE!"

On the third floor of an ordinary lodging
hoUse in the City of Brooklyn was found
the body of a lodger, with n revolver by his
side and bullet in his head In his pocket
was found a book in which was written:
81 tired of life because l am suffering from
consumption. | would try to work but 1t is useless
while have no hope of getting better
What a commentary on our boosted civil
izationl A poor wretch, suffering from
what he supposed was an incurable disease,
snuffs out his Pickering life with bullet.
Where did he get the idea that his disease
was incurable2 From an old-time theory
which modern investigation has exploded.
Many diseases may be considered incur
able, but that does not make them so.
During the past few years scientists have
discovered, in the tuberculosis germs, the
cause of consumption. Their investiga-
tions have found a cure for the malady, in
Ozone and Guaiacol. These agents de-
stroy the germs which produce the disease.
Compounded with pure Cod Liver Oil, they
form Ozomulsion, which is sold by all Drug
gists. This remedy cures consumption and
all lung troubles. 1t first destroys the cause
of disease-the poisonous germs which pro-
duceit-and then restores the patient to per-
feet health. The Ozone and Guaiacol kill the
germs. The Cod Liver Oil provides the flesh
and strength. That is the principle on which
this medicine works. 1t is both rational and
reasonable; and it is doing more for the cure
oflung troubles t&,n any Other preparation.
