BY the Albert which arrlv-
ed a few days ago we received
1913 Quincy Cleanable Refri-
gerators, ranging in size from
the small household ice box to
that used in a grocery store.
It was a large invoice-not
consigned, but bought out
right. These refrigerators
and ice boxes have nine points
Of excellence, to wit;
Cleanliness, free circulation;
economy in the use of ice;
condensation and dry air; low
average temperature; freedom
from condensation on the inner
walls; freedom from damage
by the use of ice picks; proper
location of drip pipe, and long
life. These points are found
only in the Quincy Cleanable.
Now for the reason for the
large purchase. There are
1913 persons in Honolulu who
need refrigerators, many of
them have old ones. We pro-
pose leasing these refrigera-
tors on the following term:
The selling prices of the article
is divided by six; when the
refrigerator is delivered one
sixth of the price is paid in
cash and monthly thereafter
in equal payments until the
entire amount is paid. If be-
fore the expiration of the six
months, the lessee wishes to
pay off the balance he will be
entitled to a discount of five
per cent. on amount unpaid. If
a customer wants to buy out
right for cash, he gets five per
cent discount on the entire
amount.
The Quincy Cleanable can
be had only of us.

candidate along with Bryan, was well
known here when he was MIR. Cleve.
lands consul in Samoa. lie left his
party principally on account of the
treatment accorded Hawaii by the
Democratic administration. These are
two of the queerest changes wrought
out by the whirlgig of politics. Mr..

in the court of Cleveland Now he de-
clares that the nomination of Bryan
was largely cue to lack of vigor on the

1t is decidedly novel, unusual and
altogether unique note that The Star
publishes today over the signature of
r.. Jay Greene. He is probably the
first man in the world to 90 on record
as admitting his own blame for road
muddle. Besides that he makes him
self an odd fellow of Honolulu by fail
ing to arraign the Tram company for
some act of omission or commission
when there was possible chance for
fault finding. In this instance Mr..
Greene is quite as much out of the
local rut as could We. be imagined.
The affair will interest and surprise
the public and crafty the much
abused Tram company. Mr.. Greene
writes himself a fair and square cit
iZen.

POOR CHINA.

\ cable statement that can scarcely
be discredited is to the effect that the
plenipotentiaries of China ana Japan
have signed the new commercial treaty
between the two empires and ratifica-
tons are to be exchanged in Picking
within three months. Until then the
contents of the document vii, remain
private. 1t has TRANSFERRED, however,
that the treaty secures for Japan ac-
cess to the interior of China for pur-
poses of trade, invests japanese con-
sular courts in Dhina with eNtraterri-
torial jurisdiction and guarantees
most favored nation treatment to
Japan, none of which privileges are
reciprocal.
There is much of the deepest sig
nificance and Importance in these
lines. While the several older and
more powerful nations have been
bending every energy to the end of
territorial acquisition in China, Japan
has quietly accomplished the CONNER
cial conquest of her fallen foe. The
treaty enforcement or operation
means nothing else. No other coun-
try can compete with Japan for the
trade of China. TIE latter cannot
build herself up industrially against
Japanese competition. With this com
mercial condition assured and large
provinces in open rebellion, the pros
poets of China as a nation are indeed
unpromising.

WHY CUBANS FIGHT.

Mr. E!ocrt Rappleye, staff cores
pendent of the Mail and Express of

why the Cubans fght-taXes, debt, dis
elimination against them in trade, OPP
preston, acknowledgements. Of the
twenty-siX millions paid in taxes. bare
ly two per cent goes to the island it
self. The Cuban pays twice what a
Spaniard pays in Europe and gets alb
solutely nothing in return. A debt of
four hundred millions Is laid on the
people of Cuba, the heaviest tax by
nearly twofold of any country in the
world. And meanwhile tie ports are
practically closed to foreign com
merce. Shipments, even of American
flour, go first TO Spain and afterwards
to Cuba. All Inns cost is added to the
goods the Cuban buys. 1t is shown,
further, that by the election laws only
about three i'm Il hundred of the Cub
ans have a vote. Scarcely one has ever
sat in the Spanish Cortes. ALI the of
fees are held by Spaniards, and the
corruption among the officials is al
most beyond relief. Even the reforms

Ripans
TabuleS

Mr.. i. A. Rocher is a farmer re-
siding about three miles out of
Colon, n. C. His home is some
what in the back woods. In an
interview with Mr.. S. L. Godfrey,
a correspondent of the Telegram
and Sunday Times, Mr.. Rocher
on the 18th of June, 1895, said:
81 am 81 years of age, and until
was nigh onto fifty years old,
was always well and peart,
then for long while and until
last February, | suffered with
Indigestion and could not eat
anything hardly at all. My
daughter, who lives in the city,
sent me some of Ripans Tabules,
told me how to take them, and
and they have completely cured
me. My wife is now troubled
with the same complaint, and
has written daughter to send
some more of Mr.. Ripan's med
icine. I want you to tell every
body how l got cured, for it is
blessing to humanity. ~

SINCE BABY WENT TO SLEEP.

Z cannot move my lips to pray,
Since baby went to sleep to-day.
Not in her downy cradle nest
With rosy cheek n pillow pressed.
While soft her tender breathinss lift
The eoverlet Of pinken drift,
But to q couch OF chilling gloom.
The sunlight banished from the room.
Saviour: / cannot, cannot pray,
Since baby went TO sleep to-day.
Fire will not Eaken, though we weep:
Her slumber is too still and deep.
Nor tears nor kisses cannot warm
Our precious baby's sleeping form.
Christ: help me though l cannot pray
Since baby went to sleep to-day.
Those hands that would not let me wesI
"A blossom at my throat or hair, s.
But pulled Its petals of to see
Why sweetness In a flower should be.
Warm. restless hands: now waxen cold
Clasped round the lily buds they hold,
She will not stir them in this sleep
To dissrrange the trust they keep.
Christ: help my breaking heart to pray
Though baby went to sleep to-day.
Drawn on her white feet, side by side,
The yellow shoes with ribbons tied;
She never viii unite again
To End their hidden treasures ten.
Dear Christ; my heart can only pray
Let her awake with thee to-day.

Then and Now.

The word "tOnboy," now applied to
a rude young woman, formerly meant
q rude young man or boy. Furlong
was at first n furrow long, or the dis
lance that a pair Of oxen would pillow
In half an hour. Shrewd once slrni-
ned evil or wicked. Thomas Fuller
used the expression "A shrewd fellow"
meaning a wicked man. The word
"hoyden," now applied exclusively to
n noisy young woman, formerly denot-
cd n person of like character, but Of
either sex. E~qulyocation, a word now
applied TO any evasion, was once un.
derStood to mean the calling of diverse
things by the same name. Peck orig
inaliy meant a basket or receptacle for
grain or other substances. The express.
sion at first had no reference to size.
70 stnrvc was once to die any manner
of death, WycllGe's sermons tell how
"Ehrist starved on the cross for the
redemption of men" Bombast nee
signiiird the c0ttnn that was employed
to stun garments, particularly the
enormous trunk hose worn In tho four
teenth and fifteenth centuries. Acre
once meant any field. Ii is stiIl used
with this significance In allusion 10 a
burial ground.
