JULY 3, 1897.

Since our last announcement
the Iolani has arrived with a
very heavy cargo of kerosene
oil and in consequence the
price has dropped, making the
using of oil stoves more econ
omical than ever.
The demand for BLUE
FLAME Oil Stoves has been
so heavy that it has been al
most impossible to carry a
stock large enough to supply
the call.
Where formerly we had on
the two styles, we now have
three sizes, the third size being
smaller than the other two.
The PORTABLE DEITZ
OIL STOVE is built on the
same lines as the coal and wood
stoves, with the exception that
it consumes oil. This stove is
complete with oven, kettle and
stew pan. We have smaller
styles in one, two and three
burners for heating milk etc,
that comes in handy when not
wishing to cook a full meal.
In coal and wood stoves and
ranges we have the Olive,
Bono and Pansy in three sizes
which are household jewels;
in larger stoves or ranges the
No. 7 Fisher Steel Range,
Columbus Nos. 7 and s, and
the Empire City an excellent
range for country hotels, res
taurants and coffee shops. 1t
is not boasting when we say
that is is a hard matter to find
a better assortment Of stoves
of all kinds, sizes and prices
than we handle.

1T
WAS
GREAT
And it made a hit

And it made a hit
worth remembering, did our
float, " Love in a Cottage" in
the procession on Monday.
1t was an illustration of a
kitchen furnished by us. 1t
showed how completely that
part Of the home may be
furnished by us at the lowest
possible cost.
If you remember it, the
Jewel stove stood supreme in
the cottage and if you had in
quired Of the young housekeep-
err who occupied the cottage,
she would have told you that
as a fuel saver, the Jewel is
the best ever brought into the
country. She would have
told you that it is the best bak-
er she ever had in the house.
The breadwinner in the cot
tage would have told you that
the biscuits he ate along the
line of march, baked in the
Jewel were quite as good as
those " his mother used to
make" The Jewel is the best
in every respect and the
cheapest, for the money ever
put on the market.

WAR RUMORS.

We are now we'll into July and
the prophets who were croaking
about general European war, seem
to have proved very false prophets
indeed. 1t did look very much like
it when the Greco Turkish war
broke out, but that has now passed
into history and the European con-
cert remains intact. 1t looks very
much as if peace would be preserv-
ed till autumn and then there will
be no chance of war till 1893. To
wards December the prophets will
be able to get down to business
again.
Meantime, the English press is
urging the English people to learn
the art Of war. The Speaker" a
London paper, quotes Greece as
warning and says:
Greece, in fact, is learning the
horrible lesson of Our day, that the
optimist philosophers are fools, and
that the people which will not or
ganize itself on the theory that the
world is governed by military force
will sooner or later go under. We
hope England will profit by the ex-
perienCe, but we have not much
confidence"
The Saturday Review points out
that England is not now organized
for war and deprecates, as folly, the
trust put in the volunteers. The
objection being that there is no due
discipline in the organization and
that the volunteer officers are, as a
rule, of inferior quality.
These utterances certainly show
an uneasiness and they all point in
one direction. The one person
whose hostility is feared and who is
regarded, rightly or wrongly, as the
special enemy of Great Britain is
the German Emperor. To the look
er-on, it seems impossible that the
enmity of one man should bring on
great struggle between two peo-
pies, but there is the possibility,
and the English press foreshadows
It.
The German press shows the
jealousy that country ha of British
influence in Africa. A German
paper says that wherever Germany
appears in Africa, England crosses
her. 1t will be in Africa that any
trouble, that may arise, will have
its beginning. To this, the proph-
cts will doubtless now turn their
attention. In Africa, moreover,
the influence of the winter season
will have little effect, and the strug-
gle, if struggle there must be, can
break out at any time. However,
the trend of the world is for peace
and peace will be preserved if pos
sible,

THE AMERICAN PRESS.

Though the Treaty Of Annex
alton has bitter enemies, a very
few from principle, but the major
ity from interested motives, the
consensus of opinion in the press of
the United States is decidedly in its
favor. The extracts that have been
published for week past in the
Star show conclusively how strong
the feeling is and how widely
spread. From the East, from the
West, from the South comes the
same ring of appreciation.
Bradstreets, an extremely con-
sentative paper with regard to
political matters, during the early
part of the annexation campaign
took no side, but has now come
forward in favor. 1t says: 1.-The
advocates of the annexation treaty
have certainly strong case to pre-
sent in showing that it is in effect
the elimination Of a long estab-
lished policy of the Washington
Government. The position OF the
islands constitutes them the key to
the maritime dominion of the Pa
cifc." 1t recapitulates what Web
ster said forty years ago, and quotes
Marcy's dictum that if a change
became unavoidable the United
States Government would acquire
the sovereignty of the islands.
In conclusion it uses these preg-
nant words; "a foreign policy
does not stand in much need of de-
lenders which can cite among its
advocates the illustrious names of
Webster and Marcy" The allu-
sion should make the mugwump
Americans who buck the treaty

In comparing the expenditures of
the month of June 1896 with those
of the same month in 1897, publish
ed recently in the Star, it will have
been noted that while last year the
expenditure was $23, 322. IL for the
month, the amount for June 1897
was only $4,000 This is account
ed for by the fact that the expenses
of the Board have been paid out of
the School Tax, which, being a
special deposit does not appear in
the monthly statement. The pay
roll for teachers alone is now about
SIG, 500 per month.

The appointment of Luther Will
COX to the Police Magistracy of
Honolulu is eminently satisfactory.
1t is essentially necessary to have a
man of wide experience and practi-
cal common sense upon the police
bench. Judge Wilcox has these at
tributes in an exceptional degree
and the community may rest assur-
ed that during his incumbency of
the Office the proceedings of the
court will be marked by dignity and
justice. The Police Magistracy is
often the door to the Circuit Court,
and from there is a step to the ST.
preme Bench. 1t is to be hoped
that Judge Wilcox's career will
carry him upward to the highest
honors.

The future Of Siberia may be
considered as having just common
ced. The surplus population of
European Russia is beginning TO
take up far more land within the
last year or so than it has taken up
for years before. During the year
1896 there were 173,o44 free immi-
grants into Siberia from European
Russia and of these I6I,4I4 made
the journey by the Siberian railway,
the remainder went by steamer from
Tiumen to Tomsk. 1t is the rail-
road that is going to revolutionize
the Steppes and the valleys of ST.
IBERIA. Land which formerly was
only accessible by all expensive jour
ney over poor roads can now be
reached by rail at small expense
and the consequence is that the
peasants flock in from those prov
inces of Russia where the land al
lotments, on account of the increase
of population, are becoming smaller
year by year. Siberia contains un-
told natural wealth which only
needs a population to develop.
With the increase of population will
come increase Of interest in the
Pacific Ocean, and with interest
will come the exercise of power.
Russia will begin to play her part
in the Pacific drama soon after the
next century begins.

Healing Qualities of Animals.

The following diverting information
is taken from a French paper,"Le Mon-
iteur des Expositions, which is a re-
view devoted to the interests of the
projected end of the century exhibition
in Paris: "Zootherapy is not, as might
be believed, the science of healing the
lower animals; it is the art, less char
table and more practical, of healing
ones self at their expense. 1t is
founded upon the principal that a
healthy body communicates it's vitality
70 diseased one. Believers in this
science give numerous instances of the
truth of their theory In 1887 a law
yer's clerk of Chambery suffered from
rheumatism; he fell into the habit of
making his poodle dog, aged three
years, sleep upon his bed. The poodle
took the rheumatism and his master
recovered his health. An ecclesiastic,
nervous and bilious, devoured by acute
fever was reclining upon a couch, pale
and too weak to speak. A cat, which
lay beside him, by means of it's own
benefcent warmth, made his MASTER
perspire, and the fever disappeared,
though the biliousness remained. This
time, however, we are happy to note
that the devoted cat incurred neither
illness. A lady of Lausanne rids her
self of headaches by placing upon her
burning form the body of her favorite
dog-a system of compress which it is
a little difficult to apply, but of which
the good effect is assured A physician
of Chars-enVexin rid himself of a
pain in his shoulder by allowing a ra-
ven to perch upon it,
And so on, through almost the whole
list of the animal kingdom. The
Kneipp cure has been with us for an
unconscionable while. Is it not time
for some enterprising physician of our
own country to come to the front with
something new, in the form, say, CT
liver pads of yellow dog and Angora
cat plasters?

THE PRIVATE PIG.
He Is Part of Every Yorkshire
Household.

E1OuSenOkus
The number OF pigs kept by the col
liers and artisans of the north of Eng
land fiuctuates with the price of coal
and yarn. says the Spectator. In good
times every collier keeps live animal
of some sort, and though dogs, guinea
pigs, cage birds and homing pigeons
are attractive, his fancy animal" is.
usually pig. He admires this on Sun
day afternoons, and groups of friends
go round to smoke their pipes and COM
pare pigs and bet on their ultimate
weight. They have private pig shows,
with subscription prizes. Each animal
is Judged in its own sly, and it is in
teresting to know that the evolution
of an almost perfect pig was due 10 the
innate sagacity of the Yorkshire pit
hand. The sites in which these animals
live are very rough affairs. often made
of few boards nailed over railway
sleepers but it is interesting to learn
that when the author was acting as
peripatetic Judge at the GOLFERS show
he foung young pigs as blooming and,
healthy as possible, and that, small
though the Golfers back yard is, he
always contrives that his pigsty shall
be thoroughly ventilated and look
toward the south. Architects Of costly
home farms often house the unhappy
pigs under north walls and condemn
them to rheumatism, cold and sunless
ness. Yorkshire produces not only the
best pork, but has long been famous
for the best cured hams in the world.

Vast Loss Due to Bad Roads.


The bad roads Of Iowa have been
made the subject of a report to the
secretary of agriculture by General Roy
Stone, director of the bureau of road
inquiry of the agricultural department.
He reports that while Iowa leads all
other states in tonnage of agricultural
products, the cost of transporting her
crops by wagons has reached the maxi
mum, owing to the bad condition of the
public raods, so that her agricultural
output of 24,000,000 tons is hauled at
an average cost of S1.3l ton. The
Iowa farmer pays on an average "a
cents ton a mile, but the cost of haul
ing on good roads is from six to ten
cents. The present conditions are
largely caused, he says, by the neglect
of the government to lay out roads in
advance of the settlement of the coun-
try. Gen. Stone estimates that with
railroad cooperation narrow stone
roads or gravel roads surfaced with
stone can be built generally through
out the state at a cost Of from $500 to
$1,000 mile, while no heavy grading
is required, and suggests that the cost
can be largely reduced by the employ
ment of convict labor, as is done in
other states. Conservative estimates
based upon the hauling of crops and
local travel place the tax paid annually
by the farmers of Iowa because of bad
roads at $14,00O,OO0.
