The Value
OF Good
Eye Sight.

Some things areright in my
line, and the optical business
is one of them.
This department is one to
which | devote most of my
time, giving the greatest
amount of care and attention
to each individual case. Eyes
are tested in a scientific
manner.
The latest appliances are
used, which make the test
less trying to the patient,
and we guarantee absolutely
perfect results in every case.
The value of a correct and
comfortably fitting glass can
not be over estimated in such
cases where the trouble is
directly due to imperfect
vision. Many see distant
objects we'll, yet are con-
stantly troubled with per-
haps headaches, "a burning
sensation in the eyes, or oc-
casional blurring of the print
when reading, yet are reluc-
tant to attribute it to an
actual defect of vision.
Being able to discern dis
tant objects. is by no means
a sure indication that your
eyes are normal.
Extreme far sight is as
great a defect as near sight.
and requires the same treat
ment.
Glasses are the only relief,
and these should be of the
right kind.
1t is ourbusineSS to supply
you with only these.

who Is To Pays

Rep. Richards, under suspension OF
the rules, asked for some information
for the Printing Committee. Referred
to reports that have been printed and
the billS handed his committee. Some
of these reports were to the Legislature
and others to the President. What he
wanted 10 know was whether his COM
mittee should recommend their pay
ment. He asked the Attorney General
for the necessary information.
This was supplied mos minGtely. He
thought the bills should be divided up
among the two houses, and not all sad
died upon one committee or one branch.
Rep. Winston wanted to know wheth-
er it was not customary for each deparc-
ment to pay it's own bills.
Minister Smith said it might have
been done in some spac al cases. but it
had not been the practice since 1878.
Rep. Kamauoha thought the Attorney
General had stated the case correctly.
Minister Smith moved that the bills
be paid~out of the appropriation for ex-
penses of the Legislature.
Rep Robertson moved that they be
referred to the Com mIttee on Accounts
for further consideration.
Rep. Richards asked that translation
bills be sent to the same committee Tor
the same purpose.

in Hawaiian to the same Minister /
Is there a rule in force in the office of
the Registrar of Conveyances that doc
uments having corrections or interline-
atoms in them, not explained by the
notary acknowledging them, cannot be
recorded? 2. If there is such a rule,
does it apply to documents of dates
prior OF the making of this rule? 8. If
there is such a ruling made on the rule,
is it not contrary to Article II of the
Constitution? And further, that the
Minister of Foreign Affairs be request
edto furnish the House with copies of
any and all labor conventions between
Hawaii and Japan. Reports to be in
English ard Hawaiian. He had con-
suited the Minister of Foreign Affairs,
who found no objections to such a reso-
luton being offered
Rep. Robertson thought the report
should also contain copy of the treaty.

ton to introduce an act to amend the
law governing prostitution.

s1deration of Bill No. be postponed
