With better understanding of the
w transient nature of the many phys
zeal ills, which vanish before proper eff
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge, that so many forms Of
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton Of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup Of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and Is
everywhere esteemed SO highly by all
who value good health. It's beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that tits the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without facilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
all important, in order to get it's bene-
fetal effects, to note when you pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
all reputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment Of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. II
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but IL in need of q laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and Is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction

THE WORLD MOVES.

We have only to go back to the
time of Chas. |. to come upon the
discovery of the circulation of the
blood. To-day we understand that
the life of the body is in the blood,
and that impurities in it are the
seeds of disease. Whatsoever i'm
proves the digestion and stimulates
the Liver, Lungs and Kidneys drives
out these impurities, or disease
germs, and enriches the blood, and
is therefore the source of health and
strength. Thus far in the history of
medicine nothing has been SO sue
cessful as WdmpoIe's Preparation,
made from Fresh Livers, containing
the active medicinal principles Of
Cod Liver Oil, the Hypophosphites
Compound and the Extracts of
Malt and Wild Cherry Bark. 1t
makes fat which is like fuel to the
system is wisely and scientifically
combined, and a specific for Scrof-
ula, Fevers, Bowel Complaints,
Rheumatism, Debility, and wasting
diseases. There is no bad taste to it.
You get all the curative properties
of the Cod Liver Oil, but not whit
of its offensiveness.
You would not know you were taking
1t. How different from the old FASHIONED
mixtures-to say nothing of the plain oil
Well, the world moves, and this remedy
Illustrates the fact Genuine has trade

in the long run, the cheapest and best lighi
for use in the family residence, is the incan-
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
be safer. A few days ago prominent gen
5leman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the office of the Electric Company and said:
give me figures for wiring my house, and
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 the 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.

ADJUSTMENTS.

The Ellen Beach Yaw Concert Com
pany will appear at the Metropolitan
Theater tonight under special engage
ment to Manager Todd. No singer has
been so much heralded of late years as
this young Los Angeles woman. Eu-
ropean and Eastern critics have diff
fered sharply concerning the quality
sympathy and feeling Of her soprano
but one and all agree that she is brill
liant, and for breadth of register has
never been equalled. Before she ap-
peared in the musical world some five
years ago. 1t was not deemed possible
for any singer to reach l. in altissimo
with ease and fluency, but when it was
announced that she has a compass of
voice extending from G below to top
E, twenty-seven full notes, it was de-
clared to be fiction. But Miss Yaw does
1t clearly and fully, five notes above
PATHS best and more than that below
her lowest note. We have already given
Angeles press expressions judging her
phenomenal voice with evident calm
ness. She sang in San Francisco for
the first time Monday and Tuesday
nights at the Baldwin Theater. We give
now press opinions published in that
city, that our readers may have full
knowledge how this tall. graceful lady
with the phenomenal voice was re-
ceived in the metropolis.
The San Francisco Call" referring
to the great expectation excited by ex-
fceeding advertising of Miss Yaw, says:
For though It would be absurd to
pretend that Miss Yaw is all that her
press agents fancy painted her, she is
nevertheless remarkable singer, who
startles by her tours de force as much
as she charms by the grace of her vo-
calization.

voice, and up. indeed, to about the fifth

THE CIVIL SERVICE.

The pioneers Of civil service reform,
who once stood as much in general con-
tempt as did the old time Abolitionists,
must be smiling with broad and beam
ing qualification over it's defense by
Democratic President In the year 1896,
who says that the reform has outlived
the opposition of its enemies, and in all
possible fuliness has justified the faith
of its friends. In fact, the major portion
of the offices below heads of depart
ments and chief deputies throughout
most of the departments of the Federal
Government are to-day dlled under the
civil service regulations.
Spolsnen may roar and protest, but
in vain-the reform has come to stay and
it Is receiving recognition in State sys-
TENS. New York has entered upon a pc
riod of trial with 1t, and several cities
have adopted it more or less extendedly.
Though the close of the century is but
three years distant, 1t Is not improbable
that by that time 1t will have been
eAOPACd DS SCf oil ldtCS dllu d 6OOdly
number Of cities. for its present mo-
mentum is something surprising.
In New York there is still hot fight
against appointment from a civil list
made by commission, and 1t is proposed
to substitute for it examinations by the
appointing power rather than by an ex-
amining board, as the fathers of the re-
form insist shall be done. But If the
purpose Of the reform is to secure in
subordinate positions men competent
by skill and fit by character and expert
ence, they will not be selected by the
appointing power under examination,
since the demand for reward to political
servitors Will always induce him to find
error where he wishes it to be, and un-
fitness where he desires it TO lodge, in
order to bestow favor according to polit-
ical demand. The system OF examina-
tion by the appointing officer was tried
at Washington, says the New York
Post" and 1t was a failure.
Competitive examination was insti-
tuted to protect the public service from
incompetency and unfitness. Regard
for the public service is the first aim of
the system, not regard for the schemes
Of political managers and masters The
competitive examination system pro-
tects the people against the weakness
or trickery of appointing officials. and
protects those officials who honestly de-
sire to do the very best that can be
done for the public service from the
pressure Of the push" and the annoy
ance Of 'inf1ooence."
To establish a system of civil service
regulation In cities or States under
which the appointing official would be
examiner and judge, would be to work
the exclusion of all but those who be-
lieved they would find favor with him

A Cuban League has been formed at
the East embracing In its membership
a large number of very prominent and
influential people. The purpose is to
stimulate sympathy for the Cuban in
surrectaonists. The danger is that the
enthusiasts in such an organization
may push 1t for less justifiable purposes
and thus give cause for the protest Of
Spain that we are permitting unfriendly
action. which will be in violation of
treaty obligations. Not that any of the
distinguished men at the head of the
league would knowingly permit such n
legal activity, but there Is danger in
the possibility of others using the
league machinery improperly. We per-
mitted In the case OF Irish revolt organi-
cations to be maintained In the United
States that raised money and equipped
men to wage war against a friendly
power. Uniformed officers rode through
our streets at the head of military or

True, when there was q real attempt to
invade English soil we stopped the men
at the Canadian border. But it has been
generally conceded that England had
just cause for complaint against us for
permitting open recruiting to go on, and
the raising of money to purchase arms
and ammunition to be used in hostility
to her. The character Of the men an
nounced as at the head of the Cuban
League forbid the thought that they
win consent to any illegal procedure. It
is to be hoped that they will be able to
control the organization within the
limits of sympathetic expression. Be
yond that they cannot afford to go.
These men appear to have confidence
that they can operate lawfully and still
greatly aid the Cuban cause It re-
mains to be ssen whethey this can be
