Sunlight and pure air are potent ele-
msnts in promoting health and vigor
in horses as well as other stock.
Generous feeding of the growing
colt will surely result in larger and
smoother animal than il 1t is allowed

The horses used for plowng and get

the farm will be as we'll OF without

II all grooms and herdsmen realized
the importance of their making them
selves agreeable to the stock they han
die We would have fewer unruly. nerv-
Gus and worthless animals.
Since the time Of the revolution
horses have been steadily Increasing in
size. Mr.. Wallace believes this to be
due to the importation Of larger horses
from abroad for breeding purposes.
and selecting the largest Of their
progeny to breed from.
At the time the frst importations
were made from great Britain and Eu.
ropean countries they were much
smaller than at the present time. Ac-
cordlng to the evidence collected the
colonial horses OF Virginia about 1880
were nearly all between IS and "A

One of the noticeable features 10
one who has visited the courts OF law
is the manner in which different wit
nessrs take the oath that they will
tel the truth, the whole truth and
nothing but the truth" in the cases
involved. Almost as striking is the
manner used by the clerks in admin
istering the oath. with various de-
Erees of sincerity. One clerk, who is
church member, binds the witness
with n high degree of seriousness,
while the less spiritual clerk rattles
oil the words without any special
meaning. \ witness day or two ago.

about the courtroom, in anxiety lest
she might overstep the rules. When
the judge told her TO rise 10 receive

words OF the clerk, and at the end of
the ceremony responded. with much

In the very beginning Of the war
the authorities Of the cities were as
tonished at the falling of in petty
crimes and misdemeanors, writes John
Gilmer Speed in Woman's Home Com
panion. These small malsfactions, It
must be known, are not committed BY
but by casual idlers: by those who,
having nothing good to do, are i'm
pressed into the service Of his Satanic
majesty. The war, IL it did not give
actual employment to thesa casual
idlers, gave all OF them something to
think about. 1t gave an interest to
their lives. And SO the police magis-
trates found in little while that more
than half their occupation was gone.
| do not suggest that the unfortunates
who usually keep the police busy all
went into the army and navy. That
was not the case by great deal. II
is likely, indeed. that the soldiers and
sailors who enlisted in this emergency
were the best of the best. But the
idlers were, after all. Americans, and
In the stirring times when drums were
beating, rifles cracking sharply and
great cannons booming in foreign seas
there was something else TO 90 than
to serve the gentleman below; there
were ,9ther things to be interested in
than the evil work he finds for idle
hands TO do.

PRESIDENT DOLE.

Sanford Ballard Dole was born in
Honolulu of American parents, in 1874.
His father and mother were mission
aries, and landed in Honolulu in the
year 1910, after a long and tedious
voyage from their home in the far
away State of Maine. Upon his ar
rival in Honolulu, Mr.. Dole the elder
took charge of the Punahou College,
which was then about to be started,
and which is today an enduring monu
is alma mater of many well-known
men. Mr.. Dole received his primary
education at this institution and re-
NAMED there and at Kauai, with a
year meanwhile spent at Punahou, I'M
til he had more than attained his ma
jority. A the age of % he went to
Williams College, in Massachusetts,
and took the general course for year;
after which he entered the law office
of William Brigham of Boston. There
he pursued his legal studies under that
gentleman, and attended the different
sessions of the courts. He applied him
self closely, and at the end of twelve
month was admitted after a rigid ex-
animation, to practice in the courts
of Suffolk County, Mass, which COM
prises the city of Boston. Soon after
this he returned to his native Islands.
and was duly admitted to the bar of
the Hawaiian Kingdom. He began a
general practice, and followed his pro-
fession until 1887, when he was ap-
pointed to the Supreme Bench.
In the year 1884, he first became a
member of the Legislature, and during
the campaigns which followed he took
a lively interest. He was also mem
Der of the Legislature of 1886, and the
duties of the position were faithfully
performed He took a prominent part
in the reform movement which culmln-
ated in the revolution of 1887. He was
a member of the Executive Committee
of the Hawaiian League, and by his
course and counsel re-

strained rash action advocated by some

strained rash action advocated by some
of it's members.
Mr. Dole has not confined himself
exclusively to law and politics, for he
has contributed considerably to Iitera-
ture. Among several articles from his
pen, one appearing in Johnson's New
American Cyclopaedia on the Hawaiian
Islands is remarkable for its brevity
and perspicuity, requiring an intimate
knowledge of the subject, which was
handled with exceptional ability.
Mr. Dole was married in 1873, to
Miss Anna P. Cate, of Massachusetts.
In 1898, Mr.. Dole was made Presi
dent of the Provisional Government
and in 1894, elected President of the
Republic.
In January of the present year Mr..
Dole made a trip to the United States
in the interest of annexation and
everywhere was most cordially receiy-
ed. He was the guest of the Nation
and by his demeanor made most fav-
orable impression.

a comparatively small number of
handkerchiefs are manufactured in the
United States, and those that are made
there are mostly of the cotton and in
forior silk varieties. The finest silk
goods are imported principally from
Japan, which country sends annual
~ between 1900, 900 and $4,000, 900
japanese pongees. The best cambria
article comes from France and Bel
GUM, and linen handkerchiefs come
from the north Of Ireland and also
from st. Calls, Switzerland.

JUSTICE FREAR.

The youngest member of the COM
mission which will present to Congress
for the Government of Ha-
wall, is Justice Walter F. Frear, for
the Supreme Bench of the Republic.
Justice Frear is an Island man. He
came here when a child with his father,
who was for several years pastor of
the Fort street, now the Central Union
Church Justice Frear is a graduate
of Oahu College here and Of a law
university in the United States. He
returned from abroad to the Islands
with a certificate emitting him to prac-
tice before courts of the State of Con-
necticut. This was in 1890 and he at
once entered the local practice. In
1892 Justice Frear was appointed to the
Circuit Bench and year later to the
Supreme Bench. He is now first As
sociate Justice. Justice Frear is a
scholarly, studious, thoughtful, impair
tial man and the decisions he has writ
ten have been remarkably clear and
able. Because of his thorough knOwl-
edge of the laws and the courts here he
will be a peculiarly valuable man to the
commission. Personally Justice Frear
