The plated spoons and
forks made by the Holmes
& Edwards Silver Company,
cannot be distinguished from
solid silver, except in weight.
The patterns are identical
with the solid goods, and the
bowls and handles are rein
forced with sterling silver.
so that those parts of the
spoons which come in con-
tact with the table are we'll
protected and will last as
long as solid ware. Every
piece sold by us is guaran-
teed by the manufacturers,
by this certificate:
"We guarantee these goods in ordinary
family service to wear Twenty-Five Years,
and in hotels from Ten to Fifteen Years.
We also agree to accept as half payment,
such goods as show wear during next five
years after the term Of guarantee, if o!her-
wise in good order. "
In buying these inlaid
goods you practically have
the use of them for thirty
years at half what you origi-
nally pay for them. No other
manufacturers give such a
guarantee; no other manu-
faCturer can afford to.
We believe we have the
largest stock of cutlery in
Honolulu, and it is from the
best English and American
manufacturers - they make
good knives in the United
StateS--and our prices are
low. The best makers are
using grained celluloid as a
substitute for ivory handles
and the effect is very pretty.

MEMORIAL WINDOW.
Placed in St. Andrews Cathedral
in Memory OF Capt. Mist.

Robert Lishman was engaged yester-
day in putting into position a new
stained glass window in ST. Andrew 5
Cathedral 1t arrived recently from
England by the bark Routenbeck. II
was executed by Messrs. Clayton &
Bell of Regent street, London.
The window is the gift of Theo. H.
Davies, and bears the inscription: ITO
the Memory of Capt. Henry Mist, R.
N, Many Years Church Warden, Who
Departed October %, 1895"
The window forms one of series
to be placed on the north side of the
Cathedral, illustrating the history Of
the Old Testament. The left light of
the window portrays David in the mo-
ment of victory, holding the head of
Goliah in his hand; the right, Solo
mon determining the plans for the
building of the Temple. The cling foil
to the left displays the scroll: THE
Battle is the Lords" that to the right,
81 Have Hallowed This House
The two lights are very handsome
and add another beauty to the Anglic-
an Cathedral, besides perpetuating the
memory of one whose name will al
ways be held in honor among mem
bers of the church in these Islands.
