Electric
Company.

The cleanest, brightest safest and really,
in the long run, the cheapest and best light
for use in the family residence, is the mean
descent electric light. Safe; nothing could
be safer A few days ago prominent gen.
tleman of Honolulu came rushing down to
the Office of the Electric Company and said:
"Give me figures for wiring my house, and
want it done at once; no more lamps for me.
Last night lamp tipped over and it came
so near setting fire to the house and burning
my children and | take no more risks"
This is the sentiment of quite a number in
the past few weeks, who have ordered their
houses fitted with the perfect light.
Just think it over and make up your mind
that you want the best and safest light; send
for the Hawaiian Electric Company and tell
them what you wall.
We have a complete stock Of everything in
this line and have just received a lot Of the
very latest designs in chandeliers

The spirit CT humo- has been vindcated by an
upright Judge He hns decided that a newspaper
writer has a right to be as funny as he wants TO-
or ut least az funny as he can. He has ruled that
the newspaper writer need not go 10 prison for
trying TO cheer the dark hours OF his readers with
his flashes OF Wit, and he has declared. IN erect
that an actor who receives enormou, salary for
making people laugh the stage has neverthe-
less no copyr,ght OF mlrth and cannot stop the

that Mr.. Seabrooke. when he read IT. recognized
that It was meant to be funny. He did not think
