The nights are not raw, as they
are in a good many tropical countries
There is little difference between the
day and night temperatures. There is
short rainy season, generally late
in January. The rain comes down in
torrents for a week or so. Then fol-
lows practically a year of marrow
warming sunshine, and indigo skies,
more italian than those of italy.
Little more than 20 degrees above
the equator, Hawaii has a sub-tropical
climate. Countries in the same lati-
tude on mainlands are biistered by the
tropical sun, rained upon continuous
ly during several months of the year,
and Overhung by miasmatic vapors,
producing fevers. There is no fever in
Honolulu, nor anywhere else in the
Hawaiian Islands, unless taken direct
1y there.
It is perhaps the most. healthful
country in the world. Life in Homo
luluis fascinatingly languorous-nOt the
languor of climatic enervation, which

but the mental and physical repose
which is superinduced by perfect sur
roundings.
Nobody overworlzs himself in Homo

Germans contrive to get through their
business duties without attacking them
with cyclonic fury. and their hours of
labor are short.
The noon siesta is as much daily

necessity for it actually exists. 1t looks
odd to see middle-aged, staid business
men going to and from their stores
and offices with wreathS of flowers
twined about their straw and pith hats,
and this at Christmas time. 1t is a
pretty custom, borrowed from the Kan

Active Americans of good educa-

they land in Honolulu. Most of them
are put to work in the shipping offices
There is an immense amount of
shipping, foreign and inter-island, in
Hawaii. Most of the owners are ex-
residents of the United States, who
like to employ as clerks steady, clean
cut young Americans who have learn
ed how to handle themselves. Such
clerks get from SIS to 5000 a month
and living in Honolulu is cheaper than
in any other American city; for Homo

actually compelled to do duty, while the

CHRISTMAS ON GUARD.
Those of the guard whose COM

a turkey or a splendid rib roast and
pulling the wish bones, will be kicking
their heels impatiently and cursing
the sIoWness of the clock. There is no
work done on Christmas Day, but
there must always be little guard

other ships. lest a stray shot from
some wandering vessel be sent across
our bows, with never a soldier there
to see if all We're safe below.
The hardest Christmas this year
will be spent out in the hostile Indian

pretty as a bridal veil and the noun
tains are While with snow. He feels
that he must fight the Indians all
alone, for the sympathies of the peo-
