HIS LEG is STILL GROWING.
1t Gets Longer and Longer. and He Can't
Stop 1t.


A man out at Rogers park broke his
leg few months age, and in the setting
the doctor made some mistake, or else
the patient was at fault, for when 1t set
the bone joined improperly, and when
the man came to walk he found that
one leg was several inches shorter than
it should be. He was naturally very
much inconvenienced and bemoaned the
fact that he vas to be cripple for life.
One day while he was alone at the
house woman book canvasser was ad-
mitted. After she had failed to sell him
what she had she asked him what the
matter was He told her and said that
he feared he would be cripple for life.
"Humph!" said the woman. "There
is no need Of that now since Christian
science is doing SO much
81 have heard great deal about
Christian science" said the man, "but
never heard that it could cure trou-
bic like I,.ine'
why nnt?" asked the woman. "It
is doing greater things than that every
day. You would better go see healer. :"
But theEa is none here, replied the
man.
Well, said the woman, Pm some.
thing Of healer myself. | can't stay
here, but I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll
give you the absent treatment. You Just
stay whore you are, and I'll cure your
short leg" And she went away.
The man smiled, but he thought there
might be something in IL after ALL So
he began to have faith in the healer. In
few days, however, he had almost for
gotten all about it and joked with his
wife about the matter. At the end Of
two weeks he arose to a standing posi-
tiCn ard discovered to his great aston
ishment that his short leg was nearly
as lcns as the other. He was delighted.
That woman was all right, he said
to bis wife, land | have done her a
great injustice n smiling in my disbe-
LIEF. IL u fortnight more both legs
woTe ot equal length. He left his room
tor the first time IN several months and
went to business. He proudly showed
his leg To all his friends and told every
one OF tho marvellous means by which
he recovered. Everything went we'll
fer time, hut presently the man made
the astonishing discovery that the cured
limb was still growing In another two
weeks it vas fully two inches longer
dian the one which had not been broken
and that it was the well leg on which
be now limped.
This naturally worried him very
much. You see, there was no telling
where it would end. Then he recolleet-
| cd, too, that he had no idea who the
healer was, or where he could find her.
He could not even remember the name
OF the book she was trying to sell. And
| that is how the matter now stands. The
mans leg is still growing. That woman
is still gadding around the country sell
ing books ard giving him the absent
treatment. If he does find her, she will
have TO begin On the other leg, and even
then tie man will only he fit for the

PEOPLE WE KNOW.

When an incident like the following
occurs. right here at home. it is bound
to carry weight with our readers.
When so many strange occurrences
20 the rounds of the press; are pub
lishcd rs facts; when the intelligent
readers knows they cannot be true,
there is no reason that people become
skeptical. On one subject skepticism
is rapidly disappearing. This is due to
the actual personal experience of our
citizens and their public utterances
regarding them. The doubter must
doubt no more in the face of such ev-
idence As this. The public statement
of a reputable citizen living right
here nj home, one whom YOU can see
every day. leaves no ground for the
skeptic To stand on.

ted on the Sabbath.
Cycle Shops to Be In the Same Class
as Horse and Buggy Livery
StableS-DiscuSSio

An Advertiser reporter continued
yesterday investigation of the matter
of closing the bicycle livery establish
ments last Sunday. Yesterday fore
noon there was conference between
the Marshal and representatives of the
wheel factors. Later the Attorney
situation.
1t is quite safe to say that the bicy-
Gle rental shops will not be disturbed
again. Of course they must be con-
Quoted quietly on the Sabbath and
crowds will not be allowed about the
premises. The livery stables, with the
horses and carriages will continue
business as usual. AS finality to the
formal prosecution of the dealings, a
communication has been sent to the
Marshal by the bicycle agencies most
interested.
The question was a very delicate
one for both the AttOrney-Genera and
the police department and it will still
be handled most carefully until sat
isfactory arrangement is in operation
According to the strict letter Of the
law both the stables and the wheel
houses would be compelled to close on
Sundays. The authorities have come
to regard this statute as more of a
police regulation than a hard and fast
law including within it's scope mis-
demeanors such as harming property
or persons. 1t has been the endeavor
to preserve the Sabbath and at the
same time to relax sufficiently to keep
pace with the liberal public sentiment
The immediate cause of the closing Of
the bicycle shops by the Marshal was
the gathering of noisy crowds about
two places on Sunday last.
In the consideration of this affair
yesterday mention was made of the
Sunday concerts by the Government
band at Makee Island, Kapiolani park
There was at first some opposition to
these entertainments. Now they are
considered a fine feature of city life.
The concerts are the cause of the hir-
ing of about half, or perhaps more Of
the livery rigs and wheels rented each
Sunday
What promised to be at one time
a bitter controversy with ramifying
disputes is settled quickly by the Off
Gals taking the reins firmly and using
such discretion as they believe they
have right the enforce.
