boarded the train, says the Louisvilld

tobacco vigorously. He fidgeted about
and seemed to be worried by the calm
composure of the little mans silencA

toward him.
"Howdy, stranger" he said.
The little man nodded his head.

the mountaineer.

Tho Unit of Heat.

We cannot, of course, measure heat
by yards, pints or pounds, but the unit
of heat (the standard measure of thaA
phenomenon) has been agreed upon by
those whose business it Is to philoso-
phize on that subject to be that quanti-
ty which can raise pound of water ono
degree. Now, to turn pound of water
into pound of steam requires 9s7 OF
these units of heat; that is to say, IL
we boil pound of water until It all
goes away in steam we shall have used
in doing SO q quantity of heat which
would nave raised OCT pounds of water
one degree higher in temperature.

"They say that she buys them at bar

member that there Is great differ

of one particular kind and dislikes most
others. Most women know that. Sos'
when she wants to give her husband "
box of cigars she goes to the cigar store
where her husband usually gets htNs
cigars and tells the tobacconist that abs:
is buying them for Mr.. So-and-So. The

gets a good box Of cigars, just the kind
that he likes, and another favorite'

Immense Evaporation.

A great many people have an idea
that the work done at the Honolulu
Iron Works is always on small scale
but if they would only take the trouble
to visit the shops from time to time,
as at the present time, they would soon
find out their mistake. Just now there
stands fully completed and erected in
just the way it will be found on Lihue
plantation few weeks hence, an i'm
mense evaporator weighing approx
mately $50 tons. 1t shows the careful
work of a great many men and is
finely constructed piece Of machinery.
AS it stand it is proof of the capabili-
ties of home manufacture. Those who
wish to see the evaporation had better
call at the Honolulu Iron Works with
in the next two days as it is to be sent
away very soon.

full investigation into the matter and a
British man-of-war will have the cred
it of discovery.
Returning to the trip proper, it was
learned that the Penguin left Sydney

On May LIST, the Penguin proceeded
on the cable line, Sydney Island and
the Phoenix group were reached on
May 10th. Left on May 18th, line
was carried to Palmyra, which place
was reached on May Goth. The an
chorage there was surveyed, special at
tention being paid to proper approach
for the cable.

toned Idea.

Pure blood, strong nerves and muscles,
firm healthy flesh can only come from
wholesome food well digested. BLOOD puri
fiers" and nerve tonics'' do not reach the
cause of the mischief. The stomach is the
point to be looked after. The safest and
surest way to cure any form of indigestion
is to take after each meal some harmless
preparation which will of itself digest food.
There is an excellent preparation of this
kind composed of vegetable essences, pure
pepsin, Golden Seal and fruit salts. sold by
druggists under the name of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets, and these tablets, taken
after meals. assist digestion wonderfully
because they will digest the food promptly
before it has time to ferment and sour.
and the weak stomach relieved and assisted
in this way soon becomes strong and vigor-
Gus again.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are superior
to any secret patent medicines because you
know what you are taking into your stom-
ach. They are sold by druggists every
where at 50 cents per package.

PARK LAW REHEARING.
RumOr that Supreme Court Will
Grant 1t.


committee of citizens Of Cleveland, O.,
is at work trying to prepare a draft of a
new park law for that city. The objection
to the present law is that it is too cumber-
some. c. III. Spencer, secretary of the In
dianapolis Park Bureau, has received let
tiers inquiring about the, indianapolis park
law. Mr.. Spencer. has replied that the law
has been declared unconstitutional. He was
at pains to explain that this was because
the Legislature ikea the term of office of
the park commissioners at five years, while
the Constitution says no office shall be Gre
ated by the Legislature with tenure of
more than four years. Reference was also
made to the fact that d petition for re-
hearing is now before the Supreme Court of
the State.
There was rumor Yesterday, that
seemed to have a good deal of foundation.
to the effect that the Supreme Court would
grant a rehearfng eEfha park law case. I'm
til the court has disposed of the petition for
a rehearing, there is no way of verifying the
report.

DOCTORS WITHOUT LICENSES
State Board Decides to Begin PrOsecu-
tiOns at Once.

Those practicing physicians of the State
who have not received certificates from the
State Board of Medical Registration and
Examination and those who have received
certificates but have neglected TO procure a
county license are to be prosecuted. The
board at its session yesterday concluded
that the law had been violated long enough,
and it is the duty of the prosecuting attor-
ney to prosecute those physicians who prac-
tice without a license. Many of the doctors
OF the State have practiced for years with
out a license and mean to continue doing so.
In the office of the clerk of each county in
the State there is a record kept of the
names of physicians who have procured
licenses in that county These names will
be compiled in book form and published by
the state. The state will then begin to
prosecute all physicians without a license.
Several medical societies in the State have
taken the matter up and have resolved to
aid the state in the work of forcing out of
the profession those men who have no right
there. tt = il

when papa was a little boy.
You really couldn't find
In all the State of Washington
A child so quick to mind.
His mother never called but once,
And pa was always always there;
He never made the baby cry,
Or pull his sisters hair.
HE never slid down banisters,
Or made the slightest noise;
And never in his life was known
TO fight with other boys
He always studied hard at school,
And got his lessons right;
And chopDing wood and milking cows
Were papa's chief delight.
HE always rose at six o'clock.
And went to bed at eight,
And never lay abed till noon
And never sat up late.
He finished Latin. French and Greek
When he was ten years old;
And knew the Spanish alphabet
As soon as he was told.
.'He never grumbled when he had
TO do the evening chores,
And ne er in all his life forgot
TO shut the stable doors.
He never. never thought of play
Until mis- work was done;
He labored hard from break OF day
Until the set of sun.
HE never scraped his muddy shoes
Upon the parlor floor,
And never answered back his ma,
And never banged the door.
But. truly. / could never see,
Said little Dick Malloy.
How he could never do these things,
And really be boy"
