Hawaiian Hardware Co.

E. R, Hendry retired from the man
agement of the Hawaiian Hardware
Co. yesterday and was succeeded by
L. NJ. Vettleson who has had charge of
the accounts for the past year.
Mr.. Hendry organized the company
in August, 1889, and by careful buying
of novelties and staple articles and by
judicious use of printers ink he built
up large business. He contemplates
a long rest before embarking into bust
ness on his own account.
L. NJ. Vettleson, the new manager,
was for years bookkeeper and manager
of the store at Spreckelsville, Maui, but
when the plantation management
changed Mr.. Vettleson retired and took
a position in one of H. w. Schmidt &
Sons stores on Hawaii. He resigned
his position there about a year ago for
one with the company of which he is
now the manager.

REWARD FOR A DREAM.

Lost in the month of September,
An exquisite Dream and Belief;
1t either was dropped on Lies highway
Or stolen by Time, the arch thief
If found, please return to the owner
Its value is small save to her;
As reward, all her earthly possessions
She offers without demur.
'Tis so small that the owner could
hold it
In one human hearts little space
So great, all earth shone with its
brightness
And looked like a glorified place.
If found and returned in good order
The offered reward will be paid
But the finder is cautioned against
delay
Dreams exposed to the air sometimes

DIDN'T GET WHAT SHE WANTED.
Rout of n Young Woman who Undertook
TO Squeleh Grocery Clerk


Rout of n Young Woman who Undertook
to Squeleh n Grocery Clerk.
Two pretty young women entered a
large up town grocery one evening last
week. From their conversation il was
evident that they belonged to some
boarding school in the neighborhood
and had stolen out for few moments TO
buy dainties which they meant TO SNUG
gle to their rooms.
There's one thing / don't like about
the clerks in this store, said one nf
them, while they waited for the sales
man, land that's the way they insist ON
telling you that you don't want what
you do want and that yuu do want what
you don't want Every time ! come in
here / have the same experience, and
I'm Just tired of it. The next time il
happens I'm going to tell the clerk just
what ] think of him.
At that moment a clerk approached
and asked the yonng women what they
wanted. The one who had so much 10
complain about pointed at one of row
of cracker tins and said:
Il want a pound of those.
"Oh, no, you don't, :" said the clerk
suavely; you want some Of these, or
these here; they re all very nice.
The young woman threw a glance
which said "What did tell you:n at
her companion, and turning to the clerk
said fiercely:
mo, don't, anything of the kind. /
want these and NO others. -
Il beg your pardon, " he began, II
thought
Never mind what you thought, y
said the young woman. Il guess know
what | want. Now just let me have a
pound of those, please. F" And she turned
10 her companion with look of triumph
on her face which plainly meant,
Didn't squelch hin?''
Very well, madam, said the clerk
humbly, 'but may ask whether they
are for yourself:"
''Well, of all the impertinent Ques-
tions"- began the young woman, when
her companion interrupted, and, turning
to the clerk, said
why do yOu ask?''
"Oh, because they're dog biscuit, =
replied the clerk indifferently. still.
IF couDse, if you want them, you can
have them.
Never mind" faltered the young
woman who had insisted ON having W hat
she wanted. Il guess don t want any
thing at all, " and she strutted out Of
the store looking very much ashamed
and followed by her companion, who
was struggling to hide her laughter.
The clerk didn't say anything, but
there was a satisfied smile on his face NJ
he banged the cover down on the can Of
dog biscuit and walked away to wait ON
another custOmer.-NcwY York Sun.

Importance of the Exchange Reader.
The man who reads the exchanges il
very important man, and let me say,
too, he is pretty highly paid man. He
has to read, we will say, 5000 papers
regularly. All the newspapers in the
country come into the office, and he does
not do anything else. He sits at his desk
all day, and a pile of newspapers, or,
say, a cord of newspapers. is laid before
him every morning. He starts to work
and turns them over and over to see
what is in them. He has to know what
it is that should be taken from them
and put into his paper. What is the in
1eresting story? 1t requires judgment to
know this. 1t requires knowledge and
experience as well as talent 1t also re-
QuireS a sense of humor, because there
are great many things that are really
important that may not seem so at the
first glance, and the newspaper reader
has got to judge about that. He must
always be on hand and spend great
many hours at his desk, and he is pretty
tired when he gets through with his
days task. It is hard duty, but he has
lots of amusement, and, as said. he is
very well paid. So he is happy.-Charles

Beatty's Organs and Pianos.

Hon. Daniel F. Beatty, of Washing
ton, New Jersey, the great Organ
and Piano manufacturer, is building
more Organs and Pianos than ever.
In 1870 Mr.. Beatty left home a pen
niless plow boy, and by his indomit-
able will he has worked his way up
SO as to sell so far, nearly 1G0, 900 of
Beatty's Organs and Pianos since
1870. Nothing seems to dishearten
him; obstacles laid in his way, that
would have wrecked an ordinary man
forever, he turns to an advertisement
and comes out of it brighter than
ever. His instruments, as is well
known, are very popular and are to
be found in all parts of the world.
We are informed that during the
next ten years he intends 10 sell 200, +
600 more of his make; that means a
business of $40, ,0O0, 600, if we average
them at S100 each. 1t is already the
largest business of the kind in exist
ence. Write or call upon Daniel F.
