Prize Definitions Of Home.

A prize was offered recently by II
paper for the best answer to the ques,
ton: "What is home" Here are a
few of the answers which were re.
ceived: Home is the blossom, of
which heaven is the fruit. A world
of strife shut out, world of love
shut in. The golden setting, in which
the brightest jewel is mother. The
only spot on earth where faults and
failings of humanity are hidden under
a mantle of charity. The place where
the great are sometimes small, and
the small often great. The fathers
kingdom, the children's paradise, the
mothers world. Where you are
treated best and you grumble most.

THE SECRET OF LONGEVITY,
Nineteen Commandments Which,
if Kept, May Insure One Hun.
dred Years.

if Kept. May Insure One Hun.
dred Years.
Sir James Sawyer, a we'll known
physician of Birmingham, England
has been cOnfiding to an audience in
that town the secret of longevity.
Keep the following 10 commandments
and Sir James sees no reason why you
should not live to be 100:
l. Eight hours sleep.
3. Sleep on your right side.
3. Keep your bedroom window open
all night.
4. Have mat to your bedroom
door.
5. Do not have your bedstead against
the wall.
&. No cold tub in the morning, but
a bath at the temperature of the body
7. Exercise before breakfast.
s. Eat little meat and see that it is
we'll cooked.
9. (For adults) Drink no milk.
10. Eat plenty of fat to feed the
cells which destroy disease germs.
IL. Avoid intoxicants, which destroy
those cells.
II. Daily exercise in the open air.
l3. Allow no pet animals in your
living rooms. They are apt to carry
about disease germs.
IA. Live in the country if you can.
15. Watch the three D's-drinking,
water, damp and drains.
16. Have change of occupation.
II. Take frequent and short holi-
days.
Is. Limit your ambition.
10. Keep your temper.

reform. 1t is gratifying to know that
the idlers are in comparatively small
minority. Many of our hardest
workers are men OF rank and wealth.
Our national sports are robust, and
indicate a manly, hardy race, and
English gentlemen are not afraid to
soil their hands either at play or work.
The star of effeminate dandyism is no
longer in the ascendant, and the tribe
OF Popc's "Sporus" becomes annually
smaller. How savagcly the poet
lashcd his dainty Lord Fanny -
"Sporus, that mere white curd OF
ASS milk"
| Amphibous thing. that acting either part;
| The trilnG head, or the corrupted heart
| Fop at the toilet, natterer at the board.

, Ewes temper thus the Rabbns have exprest,

Beauty that shocks you, parts that none will
| trust,
| Wits that can creep, and pride that licks the
| dust
The moral and material blessings
arising from work are not the only
advantages it offers. We are too apt
to think OF these alone. to contrast our
Ocean-liners with the frail coracles not
yet extinct, and our complicated net
work of road and canals and magniti-
cent bridges with the once trackless
forests and impossible rivers, now
traversed in every direction. Health
is not the least of our benefits, and
nothing contributes more to this than
a regular occupation. Not the work
that over-strains, nor the slavery OF
the sweater" nor the feverish haste
that tlurries; but calm, solid, steady
well-digested labor, fairly renumerated
and wisely relieved by national
diversion. This is the golden recipe
for the Mems sana IN corpore sano.
The poet Cotton said of such:
| why is our food so very sweet:
| Because we earn before we eat.
Why are our wants SO very few:
Because We Natures calls pursue.
| Whence our complacency Of mind:
Because we act our parts assigned
Work whets the appetite for pleas
ure as we'll as for food. Work gives q
zest to enjoyment. Work bestowed
invests every possession with increased
interest. We value the more that
which we produce with our own
hanGs. The fairest flowers are fairel
for having been grown by our OWL
skill. Thus in 4 thousand ways, work
in its turn became pleasure, and the
industrious experience joys that the
idle can never know. Happiness
then, as we'll as duty, urges us to work
Necessity and self-love may stimulate
us to it, but God in Nature sets us q
never-failing example Of disinterestet
and untlagging industry. None should
be without his share in the great
brotherhood of labour, and womer
should be permitted to participate a.
fully and freely as men. The do
nothings of either sex, however, may
serve, like the drunken Helots for the
Spartan youth, to point a moral
and adorn q tale" But to treat them
as superior citizens and to dub then
"ladies" and gentlemen" on accoun
of their uselessness, is an outrage t.
the industrious and a disparagemen
OF mans highest function-work.

Took a Hay Ride.

Some Of our young towns people,
thirty-two in number, took advant-
age of the beautiful moon last night
by enjoying what they termed a
shay ride" They had got one OF
the large Tram Co.'s buses and
packed straw in it solid up to the
backs OF the seats. Then the young
people got in back to back, their
feet out, and dressed in masquerade
as old farmers, mistresses, maids,
and 80 on pertaining to a farm.
They drove out to the band concert
at Makee Island, and when the con-
cert was over, they took a spin
around Camp Mckinley in Kapio-
lani Park and back to the barn at
Wilder, Pensacola street. After
alighting, they took the carriages
out, and then enjoyed in some i'm
proptu music with dancing rung
in. II was conceded by those who
took part in the affair to he most en-.
joyable aud they wished for more
like it at some future evening.

promised that every possible assist
an"e would be given them il they
should desire to enter the Hawaiian

templated or il they should seek
their future in private walks OF life.
Captain Z-igler told the men that
it was the intention OF the Govern
ment to pay them one months
salary as ian extra" and that he
felt co fident that the Government
would be- able to carry their inten-
ton through.
Cheers we're given for the officers

gates and simply protected by the
Star Spangled Banner which now
floats over Hawaii.

Tramcars st pped

This morning, dray belonging
to Hustace & Co. got stuck on
Queen street outside the Office OF
Allen g. Robinson. The dray was
loaded with a piece of machinery
discharged from the John D.
Spreckels and consigned to the Ha-
waiian Electric Co.
The Tramways Company had
started this morning breaking up
the road on Queen street, and the
draymen were obliged to make a
very short cut around the McChes-
ney corner
The machinery weighed nine
tons and it eventually took six
horses to move the load. Owing to
the energy and activity OF Mr.. w. H,
aoogs, the traffic was resumed in
less than thirty minutes and no
blame for the temporary obstacle
can be laid on the dray company.

IF any sidewalk at all, and it is hard
ly to be expected that any steps
will be taken to place that import
ant thoroughfare, which is used by
a large proportion Of the residents
OF Puuchbowl district, in proper or
der, until some serious accident
occurs. Yesterday a Portuguese
child was run down by a man on
bicycle. The parents of the child
claim that the youngster was on the
sidewalk, the rider proves that it is
impossible because there is no side
walk. The child is in a very dan
gerous condition, but being Portu-
guese we don't presume that the
accident will be of sufficient inter-
est to the authorities as to induce
them to have the street properly re-
paired aud sidewalks established &C
cording to law.

DANGEROUS PLACES.

PENDENT has asked him to use his
authority to have proper sidewalk
built on the corner of Konia and

to him in our columns, the neces-

But there evidently ends the duties

move has been made to place them
in position and erect a sidewalk,
across which the taxpayers can walk
without thoughts OF doctors, under
