Wilder arrived and twenty
four hours after this goes
into print, we will have a
display of fine goods on our

The additional space re-

and changing around some
of the old ones on the second
floor. We're ready for busi-
ness and the number of sales
of holiday goods we have
made during the past three
weeks constants us to be-

ready for us.
By the Wilder we have all
kinds of things suitable for
Christmas gifts. Many of
them are in cut glass, and
they comprise: Saucers, Salad

Everybody knows "Lonny," or
Lounsbury, and the following testi-
monial shows what the Hagey Cure has
| done for him:
Mr. Kirkpatrick, Secretary Hagey In
stitute:
Dear Sir:-From the 18th of June,
| 1896, until the 9Th day of November
| 1 have been on a protracted spree.
| lived on liquor; and, in fact, what lit
| tie food l ate forced myself to eat it.
1t is very easy for a man who has
| no craving for liquor to say: "Quit it, -
Let up on it," ETC., but altogether
a different matter for man who has
an Unsuitable desire for it. 1 have
made resolutions and promises many
times, but when the thirst came on I
had to drink.
At the suggestion of friend 1 visit
ments were soon made for my treat
ment. I drank whisky for four days
after l started on the treatment but
my craving for it gradually became
weaker. After the first four days
became Indifferent to liquor, and then
dislike of the odor, and I believe now
if 1 were to take a drink that I could
not hold it down. During the treat
ment my appetite for food returned,
and 1 could sleep we'll, something [
had not done for months.
There is no suffering connected with
the treatment. Since finishing the
cure myself I have part of the time
kept the key to the closet where the
liquor is kept, and have given whisky
or beer to the new patients as they
needed it, and 1 have not felt the least
desire to take any of it.
1 am pau with whisky feel fine
and can say to the boys that the Hagey
Cure will do the work.
Anything 1 can do or say for the
Hagey Institute or its manage
ment I will be glad to do it.
Wishing the Institute great success,
am, Respectfully yours,

A CHANGED LIFE.
A USEFUL MAN RE
STORED.

HONOLULU, H. l., Dec. Z, 1896.
Mr.. ]. H. kirkpatrick, Secretary Ha
gey Institute:
Dear Sir:-With the belief that M,
experience in the Hagey Institute ma!
be the means of doing some good Il
others, offer this testimonial:
| 1t is needless for me to say that 1 was
a hard drinker-that fact is too well
known in Honolulu. Suffice to say
that for a number of years 1 have
| been a heavy and constant drinker
| Have squandered what means l had
when 1 began drinking, and all have
been able to earn since that time. Have
not only injured myself financially,
but my health has suffered as well,
and the feelings of shame and NORTH
cation l experienced as the result of
my conduct can not be described.
To lose money and friends is bad
enough, but when a man loses self
respect, it is a Iamentable state in
deed.
On the - day of November, 1896,
entered the Hagey Institute of Ho-
nolulu, to be treated for alcoholism.
was in a bad condition, my general
health bad, eyes and face inf1amed and
bloated; could not eat, and sleeping
was nightmare of horrid dreams.
1 was examined when / entered the
Institute, and began the treatment at
once. Was given such stimulants as
were necessary to prevent me from
collapsing. Drank some for two days,
but the third day after 1 entered, 1
felt that did not care for the whisky
so much. And from that time on the
desire gradually disappeared. For the
first three days I was quite shaky, but
not as much so as I have often been
when getting over a big drunk. After
the first week 1 gradually began to
build. My appetite came back, and 1
slept we'll, and from that time until
the expiration of the 81 days required
for treatment the Improvement in my
general health was very marked.
years. During the treatment [ had
frequent opportunity to drink, but, as
1 stated, the desire to drink was gone.
1t is with pleasure that 1 make this
statement. / feel that I am thoroughly
and radically cured. No man need
hesitate to take the treatment. for
there is nothing about it to injure
him. 1 was at work part of the time
during treatment, and from my own
experience would say that any man
who drinks to excess will find it to
his best interests to take the Hagey
Cure.
Thanking you for the great good you
have done me, am yours gratefully,

AN INCREDIBLE SCORE.

Hale Wins the Bicycle Race st Madison
Square Garden.
1t seems incredible that two wheels and
two legs without an ounce of artificial
force should have been able to cover nearly
two thousand miles in a weeks time; yet
such is the wonderful record made in the
Madison Square Garden bicycle race by
Hale, the gallant Irishman who has carried
the emblem of old Erin far ahead of all
competitors.
Nor is his score the only amazing feature
of the finish, for the men who come near
est to Hale have also broken all previous
records for dista nee riding.
Truly the possibilities of the bicycle are
only just beginning to be made manifest,
and if this its supreme triumph could not
be gained by an American there is no one
to whom we could more heartily extend
our praise and congratulations than to the
wearer of the green.
Hale should be naturalized at once.
