Gentlemen:--The Board of Directors
peg leave TO submit the twcnty-second
conSdcrat ion.
The cotton crop of lS95-'96 was about
| " per cent. less than the mammoth
crop OF the previous year. and the Yield
OF hlo'.3iG bales was so moderate that
| the trade of the world at the close of
the season found itself with the light
est stocks known in many years 1t is
gratifying 10 note the steady increase
IN the consumption OF cotton by our
southern mills, which now number 40.
and consumed during past season 90i-
40 bales. Notwithstanding the unrortu-
nate political agitation and consequent
depression. which has prevailed with
such intensity. there have been fifty-five
new cotton mills added in the Southern
States in past twelve months.

W transient nature of the many phys
sSai ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasantc efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that SO many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to n conStipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs. prompt.
ly removes. That is why il is the only
remedy with millions OF families. and is
everywhere esteemed SO highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects arc cue to the fact, tirt it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. j is therefore
all important, in order TO get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when You pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable drurgists.
If in the enjoyment Of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies arc then not needed. II
afflicted with amy actual disease, ono
may be commended TO the most sllillful
physicians, but il in need of Il laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stunds highest and is most largely
used ind gives most general satisfaction.

Remarkable Old Animals.

The Greenland whale is said to
sometimes reach the almost i'm
possible age of 400 years.
Two tortoises of the East Indian
variety in the geological Gardens
in London are known to be over
200 years old, and are still in the
prime of life.
In well known museum in
England is a stuffed bird named
"the old swan of Dun" which
died in 1923, at the ripe old age
of 200 years - fact attested by
authentic documents.
The king of beasts in his ma
tive wilds often lives for l00years.
A lion in captivity in the Tower
of London lived there seventy
years, and his age was unknown
when he was captured.
Ajax, the Greek warrior, is said
to have captured an elephant from
an Indian king. He had brass
plate, inscribed with the story,
fastened to the beast. Three
hundred and fifty years later the
elephant was again seen with the
plate still In its place.

ROYAL Re0pentug.

With the fizz Of champagne, the
blinking of glasses, the light
laughter of a jolly company COM
posed of a number of the bust
ness men of Honolulu, the Royal
saloon sample room, marvel of
plate glass, magnificent wood
work and the highest style of
decorative art lin this line), was
opened to the public yesterday
afternoon. The bar was taste
fully decorated with flowers, fruit
and statuary, and the courteous
caterers to the thirst of the public
exhibited the politeness and at
tention due to the better class of
moderate drinkers.
The Royal is the oldest stand
makai of King street Thirty
nine years ago this popular re-
sort was opened under the patron
age of Price Lot, afterward Ka-
mehameha ", who gave a feast
in honor of the event, at the same
location now covered by the pres
ent neat brick edifce. At that
time the building was built OF
ironwood, imported from the
South Seas, and but few nails
were used in its construction, as
the hardness of the material made
it necessary to resort to the dove
failing method of putting two
pieces of hardwood together. The
Royal is destined to attain to the
name of "the gentleman's resort"
