AGED WOMAN LOST.
Wandered Into a Dense Forest
Near HilO.


HILO, Hawaii, Dec. 15.-Mrs. McFar-
lane, an aged lady living with her two
sons at Kaumana, was lost in the for
est while walking from the residence
of her granddaughter, the wife of Mr..
Gamelielson, to the residence OF her
two sons, some distance farther mauka.
This was ON Monday morning, and her
loss was not known to her relatives un-
til the next day, as some were not
aware she had left the one house, and
the others supposed she had arrived at
her destination.
When her loss was discovered, the
police department was informed, and
several policemen and some citizens
were sent in search of her, a search
which resulted fruitlessly, except that
a hat and shawl were found which
were identified by her daughter as be-
longing TO her. The following day a
stii larger number of men, eighty or
more altogether, searched the forest in
the vicinity of the trail, but without
result. On Thursday afternoon Sheriff
Andrews organized still larger and
more systematic search, believing that
she should be found if possible, though
no hope existed of finding her alive.
The McFarlaneS came about two
years ago from British Columbia and
took up Kaumana homesteads. 1he
woman who was lost was very old,
probably from so to 80 years, though
her sons. two of whom, by the way,
are twins, do not know and are uncer-
tain even of their own ages. All are
y-bearded men; the twins give their
age as 81 years, but have probably re-
versed the figures.

came quite general and in the meiee
the wounded man was struck with

AT THE ORPHEUM.
Big Audience and Fun Furnished
in Plenty.


There was good big house and
regular hurricane carnival of fun at
the Orpheum on Saturday night. The
program opened with the pretty and
ily," with Post and Gardner in the
cast This went off to the satisfaction
of all. Next came Henela, the grace
full character dancer. Henela is boy
of smooth face, who makes up as q
female ballet dancer so that almost
everybody is fooled. One man in the
audience was SO charmed witch the ap-
pearance of Henela in skirts that he
to the stage. Henela picked up t1se
coin, retired with the usual smile and
then came out with his blonde wig IN
his hand.
John j. Meehan, the young vocalist
and actor, has a remarkably sweet
voice and makes selections that pleases
all. Meehan's voice just fills the the
ater and his rendition of ballads is
always a large feature of the program
He gives the old favorites with fine
feeling
Mr.. Post and Miss Ashley were even
more entertaining than usual in their
sketch. Posts entry through a piece
of scenery set the house wild. The
dialogue was clean and witty and quick
and the singing and dancing of the
couple were good. The Salvation Army
skit might have shocked some people
had the particular people been ON hand
looking for shock. AS it was Miss
Ashley was a fetching lassie and Post
an exhorter that would do credit to
the ranks Of any post.
Miss Rosa gave a native song with
banjo and was recalled three times.
The audience would not be satisfied un-
til she gave Belle of Honolulu
The evening ended with a farce that
included one of the most laughable
travesties on prize fighting that could
be conceived. Post was John L. Sulli
van. Welsh was proper tough
Meehan was consumptive patron OF
the ring and Gardner doubled in plug
hat and sweater and did it we'll. Ella
Dunbar was the clearinghouse keep
er and Rosa was the landlady's
daughter.

The Disease Of Worry.

Modern science is beginning to dis
cover that worry is an actual disease.
1t is a mental disease at first. The
habit Of worry becomes fixed in the
mind, as the habit Of takiug cocaine,
morphine or alcohol becomes fixed in
the physical system. By degrees the
diseased mental state affects. then
breaks down the gray matter or the
BRAIN and kills the unfortunate indi-
vidual, who might have resisted the
formation IF the deadly habit in the
beginning.
If worry ever did any good in bet
tering IL affairs or in helping DR. in
reforming those whom we permit
ourselves to go to pieces over, then
something might be said in it's favrr.
But the bald truth is that it Injuries.
only injuries. both ourselves and
others. 1t clouds our judgment,
making us less capable of attending
to our affairs, causing us to carry
with us an atmosphere of unrest and
unhappinrss and driving friends and
we'll wishers away from us. Next it
wrinkles our faces, makes the hair
and teeth to fall out, ruins IL diges-
ton and gives us govt and rheunIa-
tism. Finally it kills IFS, though Of
ten it is called at the last by the
name Of some other disease.
PharnIace utiral Products explains
che fatal action OF worry on the brain
in these words: at is AIS if the skull
were laid bare and the surface of the
brain struck lightly with il hammer
every few seconds with mechanical
precisiou, with never a sign of a let
up or the failure Of a stroke" In
time the brain cells are injured be-
yond repair ali through orr own fool
ishness.
Can we stop worrying? Yes, we
can. The way to stop it is just to
stop. Think instantly Of something
else, something bright and pleasant,
when the worry habit begins to as.
sert itself. Make yourself think of
something else. You cannot do it in
a week n in a month, but in a year
you can. Our mental states are al
ways within u own control.
