There are but 10 letters in the Ha-
waiian alphabet. These, with their pro-
nunciations, are; A (ah), (a), o 70 as
in ho), u (oo), h (hay), k (kay), (la),
m (moo). (noo), p (pay), and W (vRy).
The missionaries added thirteenth, t,
but the natives won't have it, and con-
tinue to pronounce, for instance, the
name of the root from which poi is
made kara, although the mission
aries have it tiara. Every vowel in a
word is distinctly sounded, except that
the vowels "ai" are sounded 81. . as in
English. Waikiki, the beach in Homo
lulu, is properly pronounced "Vi-
keekee. " There is a great difference in
the speech Of the high and low caste
natives. The first call their island
group Ha-va -ee-ee, and the latter be-
gin it all right with "Ha, +" but con-
clude with cultural grunt, and the
word heard most, "Aloha, y sounds soft
and beautiful on the lips of the first,
but is a lazy, good natured grunt as the
latter speak it.
Aloha is in their limited vocabulary
at once a greeting and farewell, form
al expression of regard and of deep
love. In the latter case it is increased
in warmth and depth of meaning by
modifying adjectives annexed instead
Of prefxed, as aloha nui, " Aloha
nui loa, +" or even "Aloha nui loa keal''
and then it is time to speak to papa.

Mans of Valley Forge.

1t is somewhat remarkable that the
only known maps of the Valley Forge
encampment during the winter Of
TITS were made known to an Amer
lean as late as last summer, when Judge
Pennypacker discovered them in Am
sterdam, and that, presented before the
Sons of the Revolution Oh their visit to
Valley Forge Saturday, they will only
become known to the American public
when published in the society's year
book. The series of maps now in Judge
Pennypacker' possession and made
originally by French engineer with the
American army include not only care
full drawings of the Valley Forge en-
campment, but plans also of the battle
fields of Pennsylvania and New Jersey
1t is understood that the plot of the
Valley Forge encampment modifies ma
terially the traditions concerning the
camp, showing the location of troops
where heretofore no troops have been
supposed to have had their encampment

Brain Nerve Cells.

Investigations in the line of physio-
logical psychology show that in the case
of the vast majority the brain attains
its maximum weight by the age of Is,
and examination of sections of the spinal
cord shows that between the time of
birth and the age of 1 5 there has been 100
per cent increase in the number of de-
velOped nerve cells, while an increase
Of only 46 per cent has been shown
after ID; the brain also shows, with
advancing age, a decline in actual
weight and in the number of connective
fibers which afford the physical sub
strata for thinking and for association.
Roughly expressed, nerve cells are said
to be plastic in inverse proportion to their
ages. Further, nerve cells have been
shown to decrease in volume some 80
per cent as result of fatiguing exer-
else. Exercise, however, of every SEN
sorry and motor brain tract is very bene-
fetal when not carried beyond the prop
er point, such exercise putting the
nerve cell in the best possible condition
for assimilating more nutriment and
developing more fully. Inaction in any
tract tends to an undeveloped spot and
to atrophy.

herself she seemed impalpabIe and en-
dowed with freedom as perfect as the
breeze which famed her crimson cheek
and tenderly lifted the curls about her
face.
So completely did natures influence
enthrall her that no thought of the ride,
its purpose or the two men who were
speeding so closely behind her entered
her mind until shout informed her of
the fact that Davis was ahead of Stan
ton and rapidly gaining on her. Then,
quicker than flash of light, came that
for which she had previously so longed
the knowledge that one of these men
was dearer to her than the other. Pure,
tender and sweet, yet full of fear it
came, causing a quick gasping for
breath and deepening flush upon the
cheeks as she realized that perhaps the
knowledge came too late, and that if
Harry Davis won the race the happiness
of two lives must certainly be wrecked
With voiceless prayer more fervent
than any she had ever breathed before,
she redoubled her own efforts to reach
the spring as she heard the gentle whiz-
zing of wheel behind her "Philip,
Philip, Philip" appealingly resounded
through her brain like human voice.
In agony she clutched more firmly the
handle bars, bent her body forward as
she exerted every muscle to the utter
most, and pedaled with the greatest
rapidity in her determination to win
the goal ahead of Davis. If she succeed
ed, there was one more chance for Stan
ton to win by drawing lots.
But the spring was just in sight and
now so near that she fancied she could
hear the crystal water as it tinkled soft
ly into its rocky basin. If Davis should
win!
"Oh, mol Not thatp' she whispered.
She was trembling with excitement.
A sudden mist clouded her sight,
rumbling in her ears partially deafened
her. when-oh, thank God, the goal
was reached Then there was faroff
shout, the heavy breathing of a man
beside her, gentle touch upon her
arm, and next
A sense of dizziness and the recollec-
ton Of falling from her wheel came to
her as she opened her eyes and saw
not Davis, but Philip Stanton. bending
over her with tender solicitude and ut
tering loving EXPLANATIONS. - Emma

How She won over the Judge.

A woman resident of Detroit relates
an interesting tale of Kansas justice
years ago. 1t was after her wedding trip
that her husband was called to Kansas
on business and a real estate dealer, out
of spite, had him arrested. The prisoner
was taken before local justice of the
peace. The incensed bride insisted upon
attending the trial, and while it was in
progress she SO far forgot herself as to
deliberately level her opera glasses upon
the justice, who dashed under the table
and shouted:
"Deperty, disarm that womanp"
The officer secured the glasses and
cautiously laid them before the magis-
trate, who promptly fined the woman
81, 900 for contempt of court With
gracious dignity she asked the right to
defend herself, and, going up to the
bench, she explained that the glasses
were not harmful, and had the justice
look through them, and after a few
pretty words of apology she presented
them to him. He hit the table mighty
blow to reconvene court, and fined the
prosecuting witness $50 fur insultin a
visitin lady and gent in contrariety ter

Barred bv ais own order.

The secretary of the navy had one of his
own rules enforced on him few evenings
ago. Secretary Long went to the depart
ment after office hours, and instead of go
ing to the main entrance, where he was
known, found it more convenient to go in
one of the side doors. He was met by a
Waterman, who demanded his pass.
Mr. Long explained that he didn't have
q pass, but told the Waterman he was the
secretary of the navy.
Anybody can come here and say he is
the secretary of the navy" replied the
Waterman II don't know you, and you
can't enter the building without a pass.
That is the order of the secretary of the
navy"
The secretary appreciated the fact that
the Waterman was strictly complying with
the rules which he himself had made, and
he was too good disciplinarian to do
more than commend him for his strictness
Mr.. Long then made his way to the main
entrance of the building, where the watch
man knew him. Washington Star.

The distance between the ship and
the boat began to widen instantly, and
in spite of the frantic efforts of the sail
ors at the oars the deeply laden boat
was swept away and blotted out in the
mist The skipper got down from the
rails and made his way back to the
bridge deck. He had just ten minutes
to live. Ten minutes to prepare for tho
next world after 40 years at sea
He climbed up on the bridge again
and sat on the canvas wind screen to
think. His wife and children, who
would look after them now? His wages
were 916 per month On that he had
had but small chance to save. Well, he
supposed the Shipmasters' society would
do something for her, but she would
have to give up her little house at For
est Gate and drop from the position of
captains wife to letting lodgings.
Perhaps one of the children could be
got into an orphanage. If not, we'll, it
meant starvation or the workhouse. He
thought of his own life, of his hard, ill
used boyhood, cabin boy in Quebec
timber ship; of his manhood, spent in
unremitting toll in all parts of the
world of the various ships he had COM
manded, in each of which he had been
expected to use less coal, less paint,
fewer provisions and to go with smaller
crews than in the last. He thought Of
the blackguards he had had to command
as crews, and the trouble he had had
with them, and the old sailor proverb
rose to his lips, "To live hard, work
hard, die hard and go to hell after all
would be too ID hard. " Well,
he'd not had much fun out of life, and
now he was going to find out what it
all meant Anyway he had always done
his best for his ship.
His eyes fell on the dead body of the
fireman. That tool If the man should
indict him at the bar of the last iudg-

Greek and LATIN.

NJ Jules Lemaitre condemned the
study of Greek and Latin the other day
at the Paris Sorbonne. He declared that
the national mind had been formed not
by the literature of the Greeks and Ro-
mans, except in an indirect way, but by
the Scriptures first and afterward by the
great French writer's M. Lemaitre
further declared that he regretted hav-
ing studied Greek and Latin 10 years,
whereas he is ignorant of English, which
is spoken by half the world, and only
knows German in a pitiful manner

When Thomas Bailey Aldrich was a
small salaried clerk in George W..

James O'Brien was in the habit of
dropping in to see him, and one day
came in rather more than half seas

across the street to hotel and put him
to bed Cautiously and carefully he led
O'Brien, but before he had got half
way across friend stopped him and
asked: "Why do you want to bother
with the fellow. Let him go. " 81 will
not, y replied Aldrich. HE borrowed a
dollar from me few days ago, and /
can't afford to let anything happen to
him.
At another time, when he was not
strictly sober, O'Brien found himself

was refused him. Angrily seizing a
