FILTERS.

The report of the execu-
tive officer of the Board of
Health relative to the
condition of the Nuuanu
reservoirs is suggestive of
something dangerous to
health. 1t also suggests fill
tiers, good filters, something
that will effectually separate
the water from mud and filth.
Nature has done much
toward providing the people
with neceSSarieS; it has also
done a little toward securing
for the people, Injuries In
some localities a filter is a
luxury, in others, Honolulu
for instance, it is a necessity,
but the natural filters that are
sold have been much i'm
proved by the ingenuity Of
man.
Charcoal is admitted to be
the most thorough purifying
agent known, consequently
Messrs. Slack & Brownlow Sc
lected it for use in the manu-
facture of their filters. And
we are the agents for this
particular brand of filter in
Honolulu, a sufficient guaran-
tee, by the way, of the
character of the article.
The latest invoices show
three different, styles of the
S. & B. Filters and these we
have in stock, just opened
them, in fact, and we
want your attention.

RETURNS FROM CANAIGRE
Analysis Shows High Percentage OF
Tannin.
This is the Valuable Ingredient
Higher Than Product
OF Arizona.

During the first of the, year
Commissioner MaFsden, who is
keeping a careful watch on the
development of the canaigre in
dustry, sent some canaigre roots
to Prof. Ingalls, of PunahOu. The
tubers had been grown in the nur-
sery grounds and were of only
eight months growth. Prof. In
calls report was as follows:
Per cent
Moisture at 100 deg. c.. 1898
Total extractive matter ........ so
Tannin 81
The latter part of January Mr.
Marsden sent Prof ingalls, anoth-
CT lot of roots, of a years growth,
taken from John Ena's plot ut
Pearl City. The results obtained
from these were as follows:
Per cent.
Moisture at 100 deg. C....12.75
Extractive matter ...........50 80. AZ
TannlR .................. -. 81
In his remarks upon the analy-
sis, Prof. Ingalls, writes as fol
lows:
These roots were plainly moist, and 1
was not surprised at the rather high re-
suits for moisture at 100 deg. c. Thin
eli 70
rect sunlight in dry air would prob
ably lower the per centage of water to
9 per cent, or perhaps even as low as
8 per cent, and therefore raise relative
ly the percentage of tannin and enhance
the value of the root proportionately.
The principal point of interest
in this analysis is the large
amount of tannin shown in Ha-
waiian grown canaigre. ON
this ingredient depends the value
of the product and the success of
the industry. She returns are
highly gratifying and indicate
that the soil of this country will
produce roots with as high if not
higher percentage of tannin than
the soils of Arizona, where this in
dustry has proved a success. In
that State the amount of available
tannin amounts to about % per
cent. If the fields now under cul-
tivation give as good returns as
the experimental plots, the sue
cess of the country seems to be as
Sured.

Everything seems to run on well oiled

looking mistress of the house with her keys

the cook excellent the coachman smart

men seem to surrass women They take
a larger and more unsotlsh view of mat

but they also get more value for their mon

show; they manage TO acquire good serv-
ants and keep then, and while they allow
them greater license to insure obedience
and respect.
Even the small Bachelors establishment,
wherein the cook housekeeper reigns SUI
