need only TO run over the list of rest
cure and water-cure, mind-cure and
faith-cure, grape-cure and gold-cure to
be assured that the modern version of
the old saw is "Naught endure, but all
cure"
For all these various cures there are
Greenhouses, as the Germans name
these homes where sane living is COM
pulsory. The doctors, however, call
them by long-tailed Latin word that
the average man has some trouble in
pronouncing. The average mans ideas
of the spelling and definition, too, are
enveloped in a mist so thick as to call
for a fog-bell and a lighthouse If
you, gentle reader, whom of course l
do not catalogue as an average man
if you have not looked up the pedigree
of the word, you call it, in all likeli-
hood, sanitarium, or sanatorium. Of
you call it sanitorium or sanatarium,
don't. Both these ways are absolutely
wrong) Sanitarium is the more pop
ular of the two correct terms, to judge
from sign-boards and magazine and
newspaper advertisements.
So far have come and at this point
1 must pause. 1 find that 1 have set
out on a genuine Quixotic expedition,
that of annihilating sanitarium once
for all, because my beloved Stormonth
says that only sanatorium is correct.
Latin, Sandre, to heal, sanatory prop
erly signifies conducive to health and
is applied to curative measures after
health is lost, while sanitary has the
more general sense Of pertaining to
health and is applied to preventive
measures
Alas, l discovered that Stormonth is
not the "office dictionary" and 1 re-
aliZe that the Standard Dictionary
costs too much to disown it utterly |
My grievance is, that the Standard is
not as dogmatic as Stormonth is ex-
plicit. 1t quotes both words as inter-
changeable. So Stormonth leads, after |
all. But 1 will seek more light on the |
subject.
The New English Dictionary has not |
yet reached S, l believe, at any rate, lit |
has not yet reached me. AS for Web |
ster and Worcester, in so far as 1 can
discover, they carry their heads in the
skies, serenely unconscious of marshy
arising from any confusion
between 'arium and 'orium. They give
me no more help than the average
man, and he cannot be accused of dis !
whatever else his faults |
may be.
So there you arel 1 cannot guide |
you out of the fog unless you will look !
to StOrmonth, my particular beacon !
To be sure, he points to such extremes
as, hostyle, matrimunny, and sheddool, |
but then he is consistent, and when he |
says sanatorium 1 accept his decision. |
And so must you, unless you quote |
some other guide and pronounce it |
or unless you embody the |
two words in sanaitaorium, or shirk |
all responsibility whatever by saying |
cure-house. SIBYL.

when he intimated in effect that
the United States claimed certain
intrinsic rights in these islands,
aud that there is no more reason
why the question of annexation
should be submitted to a direct
vote of the Hawaiians than for
submitting it to a vote of the peo-
pie of the United States. In other
words,the United States sowed the
seed of civilization and prosperity
here, and now comes to reap the
legitimate and natural harvest.

1t is twenty years ago today
since William G. Roe landed in
Honolulu, a passenger from San
Francisco by the S. s. City of
Sydney. Four days after his ar
rival he went to work in the Ho-
nolulu Iron Works and has con-
tinued at it there ever since. Up
on the death of the late Mr.. GIL
fillan few years ago, MIR. Roe
was promoted to be assistant fore
man, having had long and varied
experience to qualify him for the
position.
Mr.. Roe, who was born at
Derby, England, On March 20,
1851, learned his trade with the
Fletchers. sugar mill builders of
that town. He crossed the At
lantic in April, 1873, going to
work, two days after his arrival at
Boston, in the Providence Tool
Co.'s works, Providence, r. l. 1t
is a coincidence that the member
of the BULLETIN staff, who is
asked to compile these notes, re-
members walking past those very
works that summer and being
told that they were engaged on a
large contract of arms for the
Turkish Government. Mr.. Roe
later worked in theRemington gun
factory, from whence he went to
the Risdon Iron Works, San
Francisco, being year or two
there before coming to Honolulu.
Besides being highly competent
in the ordinary lines of his voca
ton, Mr.. Roe is the inventor of
snndry useful devices. He ia
highly esteemed by his fellow
workmen and members of the
"Old England" colony, having at
tanned to the presidency of Cap
tain Cook Lodge, Sons Of st.
George. Moreover, he is still

wishes him another score years of
health and happiness, punctuated
with promotion.

1t seems settled conclusion
that Honolulu does not want any

that the old saw, ga little non

have been taken under the wings
of great nations, for their own
substantial benefit as has already
been proved, within the past ten
years. Even Samoa would be no
exception if any one Of the three
Powers ruling her had been given
the exclusive control, and the un-
settled condition of that group is
simply a case of too many cooks
spelling the broth. But it is OBJ
jected that the Hawaiian people,
in point of civilization and capa,
city for affairs, are away above
comparison with other Polynes-
ians. To this objection it is fair
to reply with the question: us
there not one particular nation to
which the Hawaiians are indebted
for the chief elements of their
distinction, in addition to and
apart from their own personal
qualities of mentality and teach
ableness, docility and hospital
ity ?" This answered in the affir.
native, as it cannot otherwise be,
there naturally follows the ques-
ton: "Cannot that one nation then
be trusted to bear the Hawaiians
more closely in its arms to higher
planes of civic competence and
moral and material prosperity ?"
With the past advantages and OPP
portunities of the Hawaiians
thrown in their path, moreover,
there is no reason to suppose that
the Samoans and Tahitians should
not be every whit their equals, in
all respects of credit, today. Still
further it is a fair statement to
make, that the interests of their
great patron nation, the United
States, in the Hawaiians' coun-
try are comparatively greater
making every allowance for
vested native rights-than the in
terests of other nations in the
countries of the Pacific that they
have respectively appropriated.
The United States has fully and
fairly paid the Hawaiians for the
limited proprietary title she bids
fair soon to claim over these isl
ands. "Limited" is a word
here used advisedly, for when
admitted to the Union this
country will have reserved to it
the privileges of self-governmen
in all matters not federal. Senator
