Sugar at A cents sends cold
chills through the man who
disposed of his plantation stock
six months ago. With the
price of such staples increasing
affairs in Honolulu should
have a boom. Sugar is the chief
product of the islands; if the
price goes up everyone here
will benefit by it. IF it goes
down the majority Of the
population suffers according
as they may have interests
in the trades Of the country.
In good times, when money
is plenty, prices are usually up.
Even with a mere tendency to
better times the prices in some
establishments are sent sky
ward. But not with US. We
sell you a Jewell Stove today
for twelve dollars, next week
or next year it will be the same
unless the manufacturers can
make them for less.
You know what the con-
ventional stove for wood or
coal amounts to in this country.
Climatic conditions involve
the expense of new stoves
about once in four years;the old
stove is thrown out and from
fifteen to a hundred dollars are
invested in a new one.
Ours are better than the
conventional stove, that is,
JEWELS is better and we sell
JEWELS. In the first place the
castings are thicker, conse-
quently not so apt to rust or
burn through. Every part OF
the Jewell is inter changeable;
if a part breaks, wears, burns
or rusts out it can be re-
placed.
In the United States a man
buys a stove to last him ten
years. 1t will do it only by
the interchangeable part sys-
tenn. Another point in the
Jewell. The top of the oven
is covered with a preparation
of asbestos which serves two
purposes. 1t keeps the heat
in the oven and prevents the
top of that part Of the stove
from wearing out.
We have the Jewell in all
sizes from $l2 upward.
Store open Saturday even

What's the matter with packing that 81
away in the safe every night? You can do
it as easily as you can draw up the plans
and specifications of big monthly hotel
bill if you try the Neptune Novelty com
pany's contracting room system.
BY the expenditure of a few dollars ev-
cry seashore hotel can be supplied with our
patent electrical, telescope rooms. Hun
dreds of them are already in use and are
giving the very best of abstraction. If
you wish to test the innoT ton and wear
ever larger diamonds than you do now.
drop us u line, and our agent will call and
fully explain the greatest hotel scheme of
the century.
Just imagine for u moment, if you can,
that your hotel has been equipped with our
patent contracting rooms You have al
ready looked upon one 81 picture, as Ham
let said to his errinR mother, and now
oblige us by casting your optics upon an
other of the same price.
The would be guest comes along with
the 81 that rightfully belongs to you in his
clothes He wants the same priced room
he was after before, and he is also filled
with the same lofty purpose to procure
more of run for his money than two cart
wheels will ordinarily buy. Your space is
valuable. Your expenses are high. Your
walters perhaps are getting the lions share
of your guests money. You cannot afford
to give the would be guest a larger room
than you could before, but the contracting
hotel room solves the difficulty with neat
ness and dispatch.
He asks to see your 81 rooms. Your
front boy again engineers personally
conducted tour of the labyrinthine halls
and shows the would be guest large,
comfortable, well lighted room as big as n
Harlem fiat. The stranger is surprised,
gratiaed, delighted. The room is so long
he thinks he is getting "A cross country run
for his money. He is even certain that the
front boy has made mistake and is
showing him the bridal chamber or part
Of the royal suit. Impressed with this
idea, he closes the bargain at once, sur
renders his satchel and is yours for So. In
short time he gets out his yachting cap
and goes down on the beach
During his absence the contracting no.
tel room gets in its insidious boa construct
or work 1t fairly humps itself and shuts
up three feet before the unsuspecting
yachting cap gets back.
When he is sleeping that night, the walls
gently and noiselessly continue to move
/ themselves, as we'll as all the furniture,
nearer and nearer to the bed. In day or
two the guest has been telescoped to "a So
footing but it has all beeh done so silently
and SO gradually that he does not notice
the shrinkage Meantime the space that
was his the first day is being paid for by
another contracting hotel room tenant at
81 per diem.
Contracting hotel rooms mean expand
ing pocketbooks.

not favorable TO the calm Judgment re,
