HUMOR AND ITS USES.
1t Is the Sunshine of the World. but May
Be Overworked.

"Humor is the very sunshine of the
world" writes Carrie E. Garrett in
The Woman's Home Companion.
Hardly any other single gift will go
so far to refresh and inspire one III
everyday life and keep the heart still
young 1t steals merrily across the
workaday world, animating the drear-
lest monotony and finding place in the
most hopeless destiny. Such a gay tray
cling companion is humor for the pill
grimage of life
1.-The woman with a sense of humor
has a safeguard against ennui, against
folly and against despair She can never
be dull SO long as the comedy of life is
being played before her eyes. With a
keen sense of the ridiculous she is not
likely to make fool of herself, and
she will never be hopelessly unhappy,
for she win find in the most adverse
fate something still to laugh at, and
after all laughter is your true alchemist.
However it may be with the unmusical
person, surely the surly individual who
cannot laugh spontaneously on occasions
is fit for treasons, strategems and spoils
But this blessed gift of humor should
be used to lift the shadows of life, not
to deepen them A joke which causes
another pang of humiliation or makes
some sensitive heartache is not only q
cruel sort of amusement, but it is also
"a very expensive indulgence. For just a
moments qualification at having made
a hit the funny woman may forever
lose friend and may even arouse a
very genuine spirit of enmity. We learn
to forgive and mayhap forget many
injuries in lifes troubled journey, but
perhaps among the wounds that rankle
longest in the human heart are those
which are made only i'll fun.

sleepy Onions.

The London Medical Press asserts
that some plants sleep through the rainy
season, others during periods of drought,
of heat or OF cold. Farmers are rather
skeptical about weeds ever going to
sleep, and it is hard to realize that AN
onion bed is nightly wrapped in balmy
slumber. Yet science in this matter is
too well fortified to be doubted. st

LUBRlCATING OILS AND
CONTAINERS.
-

The sugar season of 1897 is
at hand, and now that we
have fairly entered on the New
Year it is time to think about
business and making a little
money to spend next Christ
mas. A dollar saved is a dol
lar made, as everyone knows,
and one way to save money is
to use a lirSt-claSS quality of
LUBR!CATlNC OIL. To those
who are as yet unaCquainted
with the Colorado" Brands, we
beg to say that while we do
not believe in decrying the
product of our competitors, we
do believe in stating the truth
as forcibly as possible, namely,
that we have the finest Lubri-
cants, that for density of Wis
costly, high fire test and per-
feet working qualities car not
be excelled.
The Colorado brands Of
lubricants are the Diamond"C"
Cylinder Oil, Colorado Cylln-
der Oil, Extra Valve Oil, Red
Seal Valve Oil, Engine Oil,
Dynamo Oil and Machinery
Oils. They are the best and
cheapest in the market.
In addition to the above we
carry a full line of lubricants
and lubricating compounds Of
all kinds for plantation and
mill use.
We also desire to call atten-
ton to our hand-painted oil
containers, which are useful,
ornamental and economical.
They hold sixty gallons and
will save their costin a month.

TIE STATE FUNER AL.

Nothing was wanting in the
carrying out Of the orders for a
state funeral to- The late Minister
Willis, which should make ii a
thorough testimonial to :hc pro-
found respect and esteem with
which the lainented representa-
tive of the United States was re.
garded in this community, of
which he was distinguished
member for three years and a
half. Ii may truly be said that
every heart in the large coucourse
Within the spacious church was n
sympathizing enc, aud that even
amongst the muIti!udcs lining the
streets there were bun'rr!s Of
sorrowful eyes besides the
naturally curious ones Of
our mixed population. There
was in short ahounding pub
lie grief, born Of that touch of
nature that makes the whole world
kin, for the great sorrow of the
widow and her fathcrleSs boy, en-
tirely apart from the feeling of
awe, bearing it's solemn lesson, at
the striking of the last great
enemy's shaft into shining
mark.
1t is quitethouehtless to institute
invidious comparisons between the
funeral Of Minister Willis and
other state obsequies that are
familiar to the recollection of the
older residents. The general
public" as such has never, at least
for a dozen years past, figured
largely in state funeral pngeants
in Honolulu. Obviously, by TAX
ing their position in the rear Of a
long procession, they would be
shut out from any view Of the
ceremonies at tn" cemetery. In
the case Of royal faurrGls, an i'm
mcose proportion OF the pop.
ulace were, il is uU', in the
corlegos. Bat ih,y were organ.
iz.d in bodies Of rc|i.ious, heuo-
violent and patriotic societies.
Thus, a single society has been
seen, more than hundred strong,
drawing catafalquo with ropes.
Thele would be several weeks of
lying in state before interment, so
that societies had ample time to
make preparations for strong
rally. Moreover, leaving out
other apt recollections, those
funerals were invariably held on
Sunday, when the entire popula-
ton was free to turn out. With
all these considerations, also re.
Wondering that no request was
made for general closing OF
business, the assemblage Of a
highly representative conGrega,

together with the strong turnout
of three companies of volunteers
whose members time in mos
cases belongs to others
the public and private
tribute to the late diplomats
memory and exhibition of sym
pathy for his afflicted wife and
family formed quite satisfactory
proof that the heart Of Honolulu,
was in the testimonial as strongl,
as the duty of the Government.
