DETWEEN this date and the MIDDLE OF
Is MARCH, 1t Is usual for the people OF this
section to select their reading matter for the
following year. Being one Of the cleanest,
most enterprising and reliable newspapers in
the state, 1t IL natural, therefore,, that THE
YORKVILLE ENQUIRER should also be
one Of the most popular. Ninety per cent. OF
the families in the county desire It as o regu-
lar visitor to their homes, and all those who
can afford 1t, may reasonably be looked upon
as probable subscribers. One Of the most Sc
rious drawbacks, probably, is the inconven.
ience of writing letters, sending money and
attending to the matter OF subscribing at the
proper time. It is this fact that makes 1t es-
secure the services Of q large number OF intel
ligent and energetic assistants, and TO make II
worth their while to give the matter their
attention, we are making the liberal oners
which we will presently explain.
The price OF O single subscription one year
Is TWO DOLLARS. This Is to the tnoiV Vidual
who does not give his name to clubm aker
but sends it direct to this office. In clubs,
however, the price is only ONE Z )LLAR

price which the subscriber pays the clubmaker,
and the price which, under all circumstances,
he is expected to pay us. NOW TO our propo-

THE CIGARETTE HABIT.


There are young men in Honolulu
and many of them. who are slowly
and surely doing themselves an almost
irreparable injury by smoking cigar
cites. The most pernicious of all
forms of using tobacco and one cal
culated to bring about a physical de-
generacy quicker and more surely
than any other. That it becomes
disease with its symptoms and result
ing evils that come in its train goes
without saying.
Efforts, and vigorous ones at that.
have been made i'm America to check
this growing evil. \ large number of
physiology used in the public schools
shall contain a chapter setting forth
fully the effect that alcoholic drinks
and tobacco have upon the body. \
number of bills making it INSIDE
meanor to sell tobacco in any form 10
minors, has been introduced in the
various state Legislatures.
The non-use of tobacco, so we have
been informed, is factor in deter
mining the fitness of an applicant for
admission to many of the higher pub
lie educational institutions of Europe
where competitive examinations are
held and where the institutions are
supported by the Government. The
reason for it being evident. The
Ilagey Institute will cure the cigarette
habit or disease for the sum of forty
dollars and guarantee cure or no
pay.
The Hagey Institute makes the
broad proposition that for the sum of
one hundred dollars they will cure
any person of the alcoholic disease.
The party taking treatment can de-
post the money with any bank Or
business house in Honolulu. the same
to be paid to the secretary. of the
Hagey Institute when the person re-
ceiying treatment is cured. Evidence
of a cure is the fact that the patient
has no desire or inclination whatever
to drink alcoholic beverages. OF these
facts the patient is the exclusive judge
and if he is not cured we do not re-
ceive one cent for the treatment.
You know of some good man whose
only fault is that he drinks to excess
and that man is daily losing character
and self respect, making his own life
failure and blighting the lives of
others who look to him for happiness.
Why not prevail on him to take the
Iagey treatment. He can be cured
of the disease of alcoholism by med
zeal assistance. \ few earnest words
kindly spoken may bring about the
restoration of that individual to his
former selfrcliant manhood.
The names of those being treated
at the Hagey Institute are never men
toned to the public without the fun
consent of the patient.
Strict confidence is maintained. It
is our experience, however. that as
soon as a patient begins to get free
of the disease be takes a pleasure n
giving his experience and getting
others to take the treatment
