The Stricken Crier.

To reporter of the Orkney Herald.
Mr.. John Clouston, late town-crier, of
Alfred street, Stromness, said:-'In
1898 L had a severe attack of sickness,
which incapacitated me from all work.
For many years 1 have been troubled
with severe bilious attacks, and while
suffering from one of these turns 1 had
a stroke, followed by utter prostration
which rendered me unable to work, or
even walk any distance. While sitting
by my own fire 1 used to feel a cold
SILVER that no amount of clothing
would dispel. The pain and suffering
continued and increased in severity for
three months. About this time | saw
in the newspaper reports of cures by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills and gave them
a trial. After taking the first box the
pains gradually got easier. The alarm
ing symptoms above described gradual
ly wore away. and when 1 had finished
the last box 1 felt hale and well, and in
my usual state of health-in fact, better
than 1 had been for many years. I
have never been troubled with my
health since; even my old trouble, bill
business, has gone. I cannot but believe

Dor of mine, who has been in delicate
health for years, is now using them,
and although she has only had them
for a short time, she is deriving great
benefit. They are not like other medi-
cine.
This case shows the remarkable
cures effected by DR.. Williams Pink
Pills, not only in paralysis and rheu-
matism, but in all the many disorders
which follow influenza and rheumatic
fever, or arise from impoverished blood
and nerves, such as anaemia, pale and
sallow complexion, general muscular
weakness, loss of appetite, shortness
of breath, pains in the back, nervous
headache, early decay, all forms of fe-
male weakness, hysteria, locomotor
ataxia, sciatica, palpitations, low vital
ity, and wasting strength from any
cause. They are unrivalled as a tonic

Something for the Public on the
Objects Thereof.
1t is probable that great many peo-
pie will attend the Summer School
this year. AS a general thing, the pub
lie is not acquainted with the objects
of the school, and for that reason the
following points are published:
The Minister and Commissioners of
| Public Instruction announce that the
| Summer School will be in session at
Honolulu from the 7th to the 2Sth OF
July, 1897. The school will work in
two sections, the first making spec
| ialty of preparation for the examina-
| ton for teachers primary certificates,
and the second making speciality OF
the theory and practice OF teaching
Some method work will be done in the
first section and some assistance will
be given in the second section TO those
preparing for the examination for
teachers grammar grade certificates.
Those public school teachers not hold
ing second-class primary certificates
valid for the coming school year, or
equally good credentials of scholarship
will work in the first section, unless
admitted to the second section by the
director. Those holding such creden-
tials will be advised to work in the
second section, as general rule. The
two sections will meet together at the
High School building on Wednesday,
July 9TH, at 8 o'clock a. m.
A teaching force, consisting of a
number of the best teachers in the en-
ploy of the department has been Sc
cured to give instruction in the va
rious branches. Prof. Elmer E. Brown,
Phi. D. of the University of California,
will give instruction in pedagogy to
both sections. Probably no man has
exerted a greater or better influence
cent years than has DR.. Brown, and
the teachers of Hawaii are fortunate
in securing his assistance even for so
short time. The Inspector General of
Schools will be the director of the
Summer School, and he will discuss at
length, with both sections, the new
course of study, which will be pub
lished at that time, and will be intro
duced into the schools at the begin
ming of the next school year, in Sep
TENDER.
The Minister and Commissioners in
vite the attendance of all teachers of
public and private schools, of all per-
sons DESTROYS of becoming teachers,
and of all other persons interested in
any line of work to be pursued in the
Summer School. Tuition will be free
in all departments
Examinations for teachers primary
certificates will be held at Honolulu
July 10Th and 30th, and for grammer
grade certificates July 29th, Goth and
31st.

Results Of Sanitation.

In a lecture on what sanitation has
done for human life Professor Brewer
of Yale university remarks that no one
doubts the fact Of human life having
been prolonged by the application of
science i'll the last 30 years, though the
data in figures can never be obtained.
This century came in without a single
city in Christendom having 1000, 900
inhabitants. Great cities could not en-
dure then. First, the people could not
be fed, for most of the population had
to be fed and food produced within 20
miles of the place of consumption, but
science has Row made it possible to
transport food half way around the
globe and has discovered new methods
of preservation as we'll. Nor was city
population self perpetuating-men died
off, the death rate was continually high,
aud from time to time there were the
ravages of pestilence, and even where
there were sewers they were to drain
the ground Of water rather than to car
ry away sewage.

Four important attacks have already
been made on st. Elias peak-Lieuten-
ant Schwatka's in 1885, which attained
a height of z ,200 feet via the southwest
flank. This was futile enough to stir
the blood of all good members of the
Alpine club, for St. Elias is IS, 900 feet
high, not therefore among the very first
giants, but grisly enough because of its
arctic condition. An Englishman named
Topham went the lieutenant 4, 900 feet
better in 1891. and in 1893 Mr.. Russell
tried the northwest slope. The first eff
fort failed, but next year he came back
to the same starting point and had
climbed about H., 500 feet when the
weather suddenly thickened and the av.
alanches thrust him back. 1t is this
northwest route that the Prince Luigi
Amadeo, duke of Abruzzi, and his com
rades will probably take. On his staff,
which includes four experienced Alpine
guides and some Americans. is Vittorio
Sella, the fearless Italian mountain
climber. He takes with him a camera,
with which he does wonderful work in
reproducing impressive Genes at great
attitudes and in giving wonderfully
faithful representations of the glaciers

Running a gambling casino Is q much
more profitable business than editing a
literary periodical. says a writer in The
Month. The annual balance sheet OF
the Monte Carlo casino has just been
issued and shows a profit OF nearly
CISCO, 900. This means that the bank,
not the gambler, has been the greater
winner. Items Of expense are given Ill
this balance sheet, one of them being
e62. 900 for s~ubrentions to the press.
This sum, we are given to understand,
is distributed among the newspapers to
keep them from publishing some OF the
interesting stories that relate to Monte
Carlo. If it were not for these subven-
lions, the Prince of Monaco would find
it more or less difficult to c%ountenance
this business, for even the stoutest
hear: would quail at the stories of ruin
md suicide that hang around the casino
at Monte Carlo. Besides the money
spent in hushing up the press, e6, 900
was expended last year in sending
ruined gamblers away from the pretty
little place AID back to their ruined
homes.
Probably no other business concern
In the world has SO much system about
it as that which runs this famous gam
bling establishment. Some day, how
aver, an independent editor may make
his appearance on the Riviera and tell
the truth as he finds it. and, though it
will only be what every one knows. but
what is never printed, it may do some-
thing to make the place seem even more
abominable than it now appears.

South America. and during part of the time
Assistant Secretary McAdoo was aboard

Great Britain while the squadron was in
these waters, and the ships were brought
home, somewhat to the disgust of the

trouble with any power. either Grea.

Friction With the Administrations.
This trait in the end brought the ad-
miral into contact with the Navy Depart
ment, and even with the President in an
unpleasant fashion, and really was at the
bottom Of his retirement. He was quoted
In New York newspaper about the time
of the Allianca affair as criticising Presi-
dent Cleveland, which was entirely in vio-
lation of the naval regulations He ex-
pressed contemptuously his disapprobation
of the foreign policy of the administration,
and saying that he was a Union man and
an American, remarked that the admins
tration had no use for such.
This brought on storm, and 1t was even
rumored that the administration was pre-
vented from court-martialing its bold critic
by lack of legal power to compel evidence
to support the interview. However that
may have been, the admiral, being detached
from active duty. applied voluntarily to be
