There is always a desire
for ChinaWare and the desire
sometimes exists in the
hearts of people who feel
that they cannot afford to
buy good ware. We have
decided to sell china to our
patrons as cheap as they can
buy in the East, cheaper
than in San Francisco. We
are making specialtieS of
sets in decorated or plain
china, every piece of which
may be replaced in the event
of its being broken. Our
line is full and we have
duplicates of every piece
sold.
The quality of the goods
is not to be judged by the
price, if it was. the china
would not be worth tOting

SWEET EMELIA" INSANE.
First the Hospital and Now the

Insane Asylum.
At 5:25 o'clock yesterday morning
some one telephoned to the police sta
ton from Kalia that Sweet Emelie,' -
the notorious hula dancer, was raising
one of her old-time rackets in the
neigh borhood, and that the pates of all
those around-men, women and child
rent-were in danger of being frac-
tured Police officers were sent to the
locality mentioned, and Emelie was
taken to the police station. She bore
no sign of intoXication, but just seemed
to be peculiar" After having been
locked for four or five hours, DR.. En-
erson examined Emelie and found her
a fit patient for the Queens Hospital,
to which place she was conveyed.
1t was not long before Emelie was
seized with sudden desire to prance
up and down the room to which she
had been assigned. She worked her
self into frenzy, so that it was found
necessary to again telephone for the
police.
Between and o'clock in the after
ually and Sweet Emelie dropped out.
At the police station she recognized no
one, and after having been locked in a
cell, began singing hymns. DR.. Emer-
son examined the woman later and
found her to be insane. She will prob
ably be sent to the asylum today.

The members of the Ladies Society

Gently issued from the press of the

book of 40 pages, handsomely printed
and substantially bound. The many
hundred recipes it contains were fur
nished by ladies of the Islands who
have earned regulations for preparing
good things for their guests.
II the book is lacking in any essen
tials, ii is in the failure 10 estimate
the cost of the various dishes. and in
not furnishing recipes for cooking fish
in Hawaiian fashion. There is certain
" no more delicious fish than those
baked in ii leaves, and strangers who
eat aid enjoy the dish would expect
to find the modus operandi for cook
ing it in an Hawaiian" cook book.
The recipes found in this book are
all "true and tried friends" and may
be depended upon by young, middle
aged or old housekeepers. 1t is on sale
