FIVE CITIZENS BELIEVE IN THE
PUNCHBOWL SCHEME.
Five Hundred Dollars Is Wanted to
Build Resting Places on the Side Of
the Old Crater-Good Improvement.

The scheme proposed by Harry ~.
Greene, the Monterey banker, to cut
steps up the side of old Punchbowl,
pro ,iding resting places at intervals
for climbers, and a park at the sum
init has received the endorsement of
number of public spirited gentlemen
who have voluntarily come to the
front with offers of assistance. With
in the past twenty-four hours 500 has
been raised among five men. Others
there are in plenty who will give if
they can only be reached.
Mr.. Greene takes such an interest in
the matter that he would almost be
willing to make personal canvas for
funds. if he did not believe that people
will come to the front voluntarily as
soon as they hear what is afoot
Among those who have already come
to the front are b. +. Dillingham;
Chas S. Desly, Mark Robinson and S
f. Laidley. of Sydney. Mr.. Desky is
practically enthusiastic. He lives in
the vicinity of Punchbowl, and fully
appreciates its beauties. In his opin.
ion the necessary $500, or even double
that sum, ought to be raised within
twenty-four hours.
Mr.. Dillingham; is quite as well
pleased with the scheme as Mr.. Desky
and congratulated Mr.. Greene yester.
day upon his foresight in seeking tc
make Honolulu a still more attractive
spot for tourists than it is now. The
Star will willingly receive voluntary
subscriptions, and each day will print

Oddities which Count For and
Against Good Horsenesh.
A certain resident of one of the bet
ter known New York hotels has ac-
quired the habit of feeding Jumps of
sugar to the cab horses that regularly
stand in front of the house while their
drivers wait for fares, says an exchange.
30 long has he practiced this that he
is personally known and loved by
every one of the cab horses in the ho-
tel stables. One day he forgot to feed
u certain horse, but incautiously
showed himself in the billiard room,
near the door, whereat the horse calm.
" started to walk in among the cue-
handlers for the sugar and was pre-
vented from making complete en-
trance only by the fact that the cab
wheels were too wide to pass the door.
Buyers of horses for cavalry purposes
always look to see if the animals Of.
fered have hoofs ''toeing in" or ''toe-
ing out" Both are rejected in favor of
horses with toes pointing straight
ahead.
Horse flesh is said to have been priced
for food long before horses were used
AZ mans assistants in war, the chase
and the industries. 1t was one of the
Pharaohs of ancient Egypt, according
to tradition, who taught man to train
and make use of horses.
The first "rest home" and hospital
for broken down horses was founded
by an Englishwoman, at Sudbury, near
Harrow. There poor men who earn
their living largely by the use of their
horses can leave the animals when they
become broken from overwork, re-
claiming them when their health has
been restored by rest md proper treat
ment. So successful was this estab-
lishment from the date of its found
ing Tin 1856 or 1887 that early in 1888
another was put into operation by the
same woman, near Wiilisden, and IL

Comnlexion.

Complexion is all matter of diges-
ton. Where there is good digestion a
beautiful complexion is bound to fol-
low. A well-regulated stomach invari-
bly, proclaims itself in good-looking
face, and to maintain this well-regu-
lated condition attention to fruit diet
is recommended. Pluma, blackberries,
white and red grapes, oranges and
peaches are among the table fruits, and
it is difficult to say which is the best for
pretty complexion. If the skin is kept
fresh and the diet is laxative the face
will be good to look upon. People eat
too much breadstuffs. A mud-colored
skin is usually an indication of bad
blood. A good thing for a sallow skin

WASHING BLANKETS,

It Should he Done ON . Bright, SUM
shiny Day.
Blankets have, to large extent, taker
the place Of the heavy and unwholesome
comforts for bed covering. An excel
lent article of pure wool is now sold at
price 70 low that they are within reach
Of moderate purses. They are lighter
than comforts, and when soiIed; can be
thoroughly cleaned while the comforts
cannot.
Spring is the best season for wash
ing blankets. If the binding across the
ends is worn, remove it and rebind, or
finish the edges with a border done in
blanket stitch with Germantown yarn.
Cut double blankets apart, as they are
easier to handle than when they are to-
gether. Any spots that are greasy OF
badly soiled should be removed with
benzine before putting in water, and
the work is greatly lessened if the
blankets are thoroughly shaken to re-
move the loose dirt and dust.
Choose a bright, sunshiny day to
wash and if gentle breeze is blowing,
so much the better. Fill your tubs half
full of soft, hot water in which half d
bar of good white soap has been dis
solved, then put the blankets in and
wash gently. Yellow, resinous soap and
hard rubbing ruins blankets; the form.
er hardens the fibers of the wool, and
the latter shrinks and draws it up. A
good washing machine and wringer are
great aids in this work and blankets
should never be twisted and wrung be-
tween the hands. Put through two, or,
II necessary, three suds, prepared just
as the first was, and when clean, rinse
through several waters that have been
heated the same temperature as the
waters in which they were washed.
Hang them on a strong clothesline with
an abundance of clothespins, allowing
them to lap over just enough to fasten
them securely. Shake them to remove
the wrinkles and let them hang until
thoroughly dry: When they are
brought in, fold evenly and place under
heavy weights for day or two. They
are then ready to put away for the sum-
mer, and don't forget to put plenty of
moth balls, camphor, or other moth
preventitives in the chest or shelves
containing Observation-Disclosures Home

SCOT Water,

Water in which some SCOT has been
dissolved has always been a favorite
with florists for manuring plants, and
also at the same time keeping off in
furious insects 1t has a slight smell
of sulphur, to which doubtless its pow
err to repel injurious insects is due.
Many puS little SCOT In water and
use it on cucumber and melon
plants to skeep off the striped
bug. If done before any eggs
are laid it will repel them. The
dark color from the SCOT on the leaves
holds the head. and when it is washed
upon the ground it makes the soil
warmer. Some ammonia in the water
makes it much effective as fertilizer.
The SCOT is pure carbon and has con-
siderable power to absorb ammonia,
which it will give out only as the roots
of plants surround the carbon thus
charged and absorb it.-Dixie Farmer.
