A Cheerful Woman.

From the Democrat, Brazil. Ind.
Every woman cannot be beautiful
but a cheerful face often supplies the
deficiency. But no one can lie cheer
ful and bring JOY TO others unless
they have perfect health. Fortunately.
science has placed this priceless boon
within the reach OF every woman As
the following incident proves:
Mrs. Amanda Robinson, wife OF Will
liam Robinson, farmer and stockman.
near TOWNSVILLE, Clay County, Ind, is
thirty-two years old and had for sew
eral years been in declining health and
respondent. For three months she was
not only unable TO attend TO her do
nestle duties but too feeble to be up
and about. Today she is in good
health and able TO attend to her house
hold affairs. She relates her expert
ence as follows:
Il was afflicted with female troubles
and was in a delicate state of health.
l lost my appetite, grew thin and was
greatly depressed. After taking vari-
Gus remedies without being benefited
l was induced by a friend TO try DR.

and wanted to try the pastures new
and green near the land-lOcked harbOr
capable of affordiGg anchorage for the
combined navies of the world.
Scientifically the sea horse bears the
name hippocampus, which is modern
latin for a Greek appelation meaning
half horse and half fish. 1t is dis
tinguished by the prehensibility of the
tail and the want of caudil fin, COM
bined with a tubular snOut, narrow
gill openings, a single soft dOrsal, be-
longing partly to the abdominal and
partly to the caudal portion, and the
absence of central fins. The males
carry the spawn in pouches under the
tail till the fry is Matched. All the
species are small. The most char
acteristic and familiar form is the lit
tie sea horse remarkable for the re-
semblance of its head and neck to
those of a horse"
The sea horse which Mr.. Forbes has
impounded answers the encyclopedia
description to the slightest detail.
Some of the people of the Peninsula
want to say that it has hair and is
branded, but this is not true. There
are not even scales and the one fin is
prominent as a sore thumb dressed by
bad boys angry sister.

Will J. Forbes has a new horse. 1t

is not the kind of a horse that has a
leg at each corner. The picture with
these lines is from a kodak portrait of

not consider it necessary TO have q

story he brings up from the Peninsula.
The whole town knows that VIII is
not that kind of a man. But this was
an extraordinary incident. The curio
is about two feet long, including the
tail. Mr.. Forbes saw it floating near
shore and captured it with a rake. He
was alone at the time, his companion
having gone for a lassO.

SUNDAY SCHOOLS.
Plans for Complete United Work
of Forces.


About twenty superintendent and
teachers of the various Sunday school:
of the city met in the Y. NJ. C. A hal
at 4:30 yesterday afternoon to con
slider the plan of Professor Theo. Rich
ards of bringing this class of church
workers together for mutual study and
benefit. Central Union, Methodist,
Christian, Portuguese, Kawaiahao and
Kamaukapili churches were repre-
scented.
Mr.. Richards presided and stated
the objects of the meeting. II was de-
sired to form an Association TO hold
union meetings once month for the
purpose of comparing notes and de-
vising, if possible, better schemes for
Sunday school work. Papers would be
read at the meetings, suggestions dis
cussed and general plans adopted. All
the churches represented use the
standard lessons. 1t was therefore sug-
gested that meetings of teachers be
held once a week for the study of the
lessons and the formation of a plan
of teaching, which should be general
in all the churches.
The latter scheme was unanimously
adopted and the first meeting Of teach
ers was called for next Friday evening
at the same hour and place. The fol-
lowing were appointed a committee TO
draft a constitution for a permanent
organization: Professor Theo. Rich
ards, chairman; w. c. Weldon, rep
resenting Christian church; Col. De Ia
Nergne, Central Union church: Mrs. G..

pipe from large reel into various holes

bluffed and few knew.
One of the latter turned with large
scorn to two men--who were contem-

whether or not 1t might be gas s-pipe--and
said: THAT is the new telephone cable;
1t is to go underground after this and

ARMoR PLATE PATENTS
Won't Prevent Work at the Govern

WASHINGTON, Dec. Silt is as
certained at the Navy Department that
a decisioH Of the Patent Office experts
recently submitted in the matter Of the
patents for Harveyized armor plate may
result in the withholding Of payment OF
further royalties on plate furnished by
large steel companies. The question sub
mitted by Secretary Long to the Patent
Office was whether the employment Of
a temperature above that Of cast iron
Is an essential feature of the Harvey
patents, and the experts reached the
conclusion that such heat was an essen
tial feature Of the deyice. The Navy
Department armor plate experts are Of
the opinion that the highest temperature
is not essential to the obtaining Of the
most hardened plates. The use Of tenn
peratures not quite so high as that COW
cred by the Harvey process IL not ro-
garded as an infringement Of the Har-
vey patents.
