If strength is what you want, you
should study what causes your weak
ness.
1t is practically lack of food.
But you eat three meals dav and
all you can eat at time
Yes, but do you digest it?
Food undigested, is not food 1t is
not nourishment

To digest your food take Shaker Di-

At the Com regational church.

Rev. Brown of Reedsburg occupied
the Congregational pulpit in this city
Sunday morning and evening, deliv-
ering two discourses that were pro-
nounced excellent by everyone who
heard them. There is some talk of
rendering him a call for permanent
charge of this church. All win join
us in wishing hasty settlement of
choice as it is an unpleasant thing to
have one # the finest churches in our
city closed. Let us quit looking for
angels; their wings are too easily
soiled, and get preacher
who isn't afraid to go down into the
slums and whip the devil round the
stump-a worker for Christ who is
not imbued with the idea that he
must draw his patronage from other
churches. but rather from the rough
element outside who make noblest
timber for church purposes when once
converted.

Letter from Representative Bapcocl.


So much comment has been made
on the sction of Representatives Bah
cock in voting contrary to the expect
ations of some of his friends and con-
stituents that Secretary Casson wrote
to him concerning the matter. Mr..
Babcock replied at length as follows:
WASHINGTON, d. c., FEB. n,
Hon Henry Casson, Madison, Wis.
My DEAR SIR:-Your late favor,
asking about my vote on the appro-
priation bill for the District of Column
bia, received. OF course. under
stand fully your position in reference
to appropriating money by the gem
eral government for sectarian institu-
tions of any kind, and am heartily IN
sympathy with the sentiments YOU
have expressed to me on previous oc-
easions In the District of Columbia,
there are something over twenty char
liable institutions that have been
maintained by private subscriptions
and by appropriations from the Dis
trict OF Columbia revenues. When
the bill was reported to the House. an
effort was made to strike out all of
the appropriations of this kind. |
favored the proposition in the COM
mittee of the whole, with the excep-
tion of certain institutions here that
had nothing of a secIarian or religious
character. one being the Temporary
Home for old soldiers, another being
the Free Dispensarv where poor peo-
pie who are sick or in need of medi-
cine can be served without cost. and
the Emergency Hospital. There are,
you understand, no public institutions
in the District Of Columbia for the
care Of this class of people, as there
are in most Of our cities, and, while
in fact these institutions are main
tanned partially by private subscrip-
tions, they have been supervised by a
government inspector. and the appro-
tice, would leaye them in deplorable
condition. However, in the commit
tee of the whole, all of the appropria-
tions for sectarian institutions were
stricken out of the general appropria-
ton bill, which met my hearty APP
proval. When the bill came up for
final passage | voted against it, for
the reason that it was encountered
with legislation that did not properly
belong to the committee on sppropria-
tions and was entirely within the prov
ince of the committee on the District
of Columbia, of which am chairman.
| firmly believe that the government
should make no appropriations for
sectarian institutions. / opposed the
appropriation of money for Indian
schools and expect topursue the same
policy in the future. Had it not been
for the fact that the committee on APP
preparations assumed to handle legis-
lation that properly belonged to our
committee. | should have voted for
the bill. They attempted to usurp
the functions of the committee on
the District of Columbia. and by SO
doing embarrassed and INSTRUCTED leg
islation that we had under considera-
ton at the time. Yours very truly.

There is nothing mean or small
about some of the financial methods of
Barney Barnato. In his own way the
Kaflir King is regular Napoleon of
the Cecil Rhodes school. While the
friends of the big men of the Reform
Committee were leaving no stone UNI
turned in the effort to secure liberty
for the notable prisoners, Barnato
opened the negotiations that were car
ried out by offering in so many words
to ''pungle up" as much money as the
Beers thought would assuage their
feelings. And it was on this basis the
incident was closed. Barnato's purse
is doubtless also at the service of "Dr.
JIM" but can scarcely be utilized, as
things are not done quite that way in
bow street.

ENCOURAGING TONE.
San Francisco Bulletin. |

San Francisco Bulletin.
The Hawaiian Legislature has
passed a bill admitting California
wines free of duty. The exception Of
wines over Is per cent alcohol will
not affect the bulk of our wine pro-
duct. AS Hawaiian sugar has for
years been admitted free, with a sim
liar limitation, the admission of the
wines of this country is only the fair
thing to do. In fact, it might have
been done much sooner. 1t is more
likely than not that the next admin
istration, whether Democratic or Re
publican, will enter into such rela-
lions with the island that in matter of
trade it will be like a State in the
Union. The one proposition upon
which the prudent man can venture
money is that Clevelandism dies with
the present administration.

1t is figured out Ivy some of the
adopts at such things that there is
much likelihood of the election of "A
President of the United States being
thrown into the House of Represen-
tatives. 1t goes there when the col
lege" fails to make Il choice. 1t is on
the ground of this possibility that
some of the most able Republican la
borers are eXerting themselves to Sc
sure an influence in the selection of
opposition to Mckinley. The ambi,
ton of silver Senator Teller is said to
be laugh at st. Louis, but he woul.l

Hawaii, but any good man who would

personality, would be acceptable.

Eva gives promise of being the
banner plantation in every way. Now
if the Oahu plantation scheme can be
put through, Honolulu will have about
enough in the way of showing of
cane culture to visitors. Moreover,
more business is made for the town.
While this island is trying to catch up
in the line of sugar it should not for
get coffee. In the vicinity of the Wal
amaze mountains a short time ago, a
representative of this paper was
shown by a gentleman able to judge,
a wide extent of unused land just as
good for coffee as can be found i'm the
group. Beyond, there is one young
plantation and something that will
measure well in time is being done in
coffee by Mr.. Irwin at Waimanalo,
over the Nuuanu pail.

HIGHLY HOPEFUL.
New York SUM-


Hawaii's heart is true to Uncle Sam
and she does not care who knows it.
There is no coque+ry in her statecraft
on this subject, nor any attempt to
excite Uncle Sans apprehension by
the pretence that she had concluded
to lead an isolated life, and that a
state of single blessedness is better
for her. The straightforward and
unanimous vote of her Legislature, on
the eve of adjournment, declaring that
this body continues to desire union to
the United States, is at once credit
able to it and reminder to our peo-
pie. But Hawaii has not much longer
to wait. She may not celebrate the
4th of March, 1897, with the booming
of cannon and as a public holiday
yet she may rejoice over it as the day
of the outgoing of Mr. Cleveland, who
ever may come in. And whoever the
new President, we may expect that
during his administration Hawaii will
come into our Union.

1t would give Hawaii added adver-

good thing in this same lecture. This

be able to say anything of any pos
sible value or information.

A technical journal says an expert
ment has been made in England of

The cleanest, brightest safest and really,
for use in the family residence, is the mean
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
besafer. A few days ago a prominent gen.

"Give me figures for wiring my house, and 1
want it done at once; no more lamps for me-
Last night lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire TO the house and burning
my children and take no more risks"
This is ths sentiment of quite number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind
that you want the best and safest light; send
for the Hawaiian Electric Company and tell
them what you want.
