or prevaricating in the slightest degree

say he was not at home if he was. ga
servants strict regard for the truth. :"
said he, "must be weakened by such a
practice. If / accustom my servant to
tell q lie for me, have I not reason to
apprehend that he will tell them for
HIMSELF" A strict adherence to truth,
the doctor considered as sacred obliga-
ton, and in relating the smallest anec-
dote he would not allow himself the
minutest addition to mbellish his story.

Wilhelmina In Bronze.

A bronze figure on exhibition now at
one of the big silversmiths represents
her majesty, Wilhelmina, and her dog.
The bronze is by Dutch sculptor, and
the straight, stolid little figure and
round, placid face look very like the
photographs Of the little sovereign. The
costume, portrayed as conscientiously
as if intended for pattern for the la
dies Of the Netherlands, is very pretty.
1t is princess dress, made apparently
Of brocaded silk, the design small but
intricate. The bodice and skirt open to
show front Of some soft material,
probably chiffon or mousseline, and the
edges Of the silk in front and around
the yoke are bordered with an ostrich
feather trimming. The sleeves have
bands Of this trimming at intervals.
The little queens hat is shady affair
trimmed with feathers and ribbon, and
her hair is drawn tightly back and tied
with bow. The dress reaches to her
shoe tops, and the common sense"
shoes cover feet longer and broader than
those Of most New York girls The dog
on whose head rests the hand that rules
the Netherlands is a big and shaggy
setter.-New York Commercial Adver-
tiser.
The "Princess Christian Needle."
All lovers Of art needlework who are
acquainted with it's fascinating as we'll
as patient labors will hail with pleasure
clever English invention called the
"Princess Christian needle" It has
four separate eyes, by which embroider-
ers may work with from one to four
threads at time. Every woman IA
miliar with embroidery will recognize
the value of such needle in shading
figures or flowers and recall the torment
and time lost in changing her silks.
This needle was invented by a Miss
Darrell, skilled in fine embroidery, who
submitted it to Princess Christian, who
was SO impressed by its utility that her
royal highness gave permission for It to
be called by her name. Specimens Of
work done with this wonderful needle
were exhibited at the same time and
met the appreciation Of the princess,
who has the reputation Of being an ex-
pert in decorative needlework of all
nds.-Exchange. 4

A Dutch Supper.

Bicycle trips and costumes suggest al,
lnformality which is not altogether in
accord with a caterers spread served at
ones home table, yet what party, large
or small, makes a bicycle run without
coming home ready to eat substantial
meal? A Dutch supper, as some one has
chosen to call an informal spread of
wholesome and toothsome dishes, makes
pleasant variety for an evening spread
AT this season an attractive center
piece may be arranged of fruits, and at
each place stein is placed to suggest
the Dutch" if nothing more The
viands served at one such jolly party
were lettuce and ham sandwiches made
with brown bread, toasted crackers with
cheese, sardines, pretzels and potato
salad.
Wilhelmina's Fnvoritc Flower.
The young queen Of Holland is very
enthusiastic about horticulture. Her IA
vorite flower is not unnaturally the
tulip. The royal gardeners make super
human efforts to keep these flowers in
bloom all the year round in view Of the
peculiar favoritism which their mis-.
tress has for them. There is one special
variety of tulip called Queen Wilhel-
nina, of which she is particularly fond.
1t is brilliant orange, with flame colored
stripes.
Miss Emily Thaclseray is doing good
work among the Navajo Indians, par

pleased to have something built express

a Man at Sea From Waianae
since Last "Wednesday.
a telephone message was received at
the Police Station yesterday forenoon
to the effect that a Portuguese from
Waianae had been lost at sea.
The circumstances of the case are
as follows: Jacintho, the Portuguese
in question, started from Waianae in
a fourteen-foot sail boat last Wednes-
day with the intention Of coming to
Honolulu where he had already sold
the craft. He was an expert fisher
man and no one thought but that he
would reach the city in safety. On
Friday he was seen near the light
house at BARRIERS Point. Since then
he has not been heard of and his
friends have grave fears as to his
safety. A number of Portuguese from
the city have started out in a large
sail boat in search of Jacintho. The
missing boat was painted dark red
and had two sails.

DO NOT LICENSE
Col. VIM. F. Allen Against
Any Opium Permits.
Handles the Arguments That Are
Made - Past Experience Says
Hawaiians Would Be Injured.
APPEAL TO LEGISLATORS.

You are about to vote for or against
the bill to license the sale of opium.
Be sure you give this bill the careful
thought it is worthy of, for, as you
decide, it will be a power for good or
evil in these islands.
That the advocates of the license
are good, conscientious men must be
admitted, and they no doubt think
licensing the drug the best way to
control it's use Others only look at
the financial gain to the treasury,
and others hope it may be a means of
checking the smuggling now going on.
All these arguments have more or less
weight with those who use and those
who hear them. The same arguments
were used when the previous opium
license was passed, but the facts did
not bear out the arguments. 1t did
not control the use of opium; on the
contrary, more opium was used and
especially by the Hawaiian. 1t was
the evidence of all the managers Of
plantations that when the drug was
licensed the users of it were more
and more untitled for work on Mon
DAYS and Tuesdays from its effect and
on those days most of the trouble with
them occurred.
When not licensed the men get it
but they use it in a very guarded
f1I1
not incapacitate them for work.
The argument that the treasury will
be benefited has two sides. 1t was
proven that when the license was run
ming the cost of court trials. police
expenses. the insane asylum and hos
pital expenses were largely increased,
so that the amount received for the
license, although a large sum, was
bv no means all on the credit side.
There are also two sides to the
argument that with license SNUG
Cling is checked to some extent. 1t
was not so proven before. If the de-
mapd increases with a license, then
smuggling will increase also. The
holders of a license will be very apt
to buy where they can get the best
rates and not question how or where
it was obtained. Another argument
against it, proven when the license
was in force, is the fact that the
native Hawaiians in much larger num-
hers used it than they ever did be-
| fore. or have since the license was
abolished. Should not this be sut1-
cient reason for voting against the
| license? The Hawaiians should be
protected against this great tempta-
ton. 1t was also proven that the
| strict laws with which the former
license was guarded could not be en-
forced well enough to protect the
! licensees any more than the laws
against smuggling can prevent 1t.
Do YOU law makers realize how thu
massage of such a license will be con
strued in the United States, what al
argument it will be against annex
alton, for which you all are pledged
This Both day of May marks tn
