Orange omelet is made like other

eletare peeled, and pulled apart in their
natural sections, each Of which is then
cut into halves They are sweetered,
and, if too much juice Is pressed out,
1t is poured off before they are folded
in the omelet. They should be pre-
pared, of course, before the omelet Is
begun, and may stand until needed in

Of cooking-teachers to peel an orange
is to pare it like an apple, and toremoxe

The monogrammed glove is the very
latest thing. and. of course. it is worn
only by the extremist of fashion. To
make the monogrammed gloves you get
pair Of plain kid gloves, with as little
stitching upon the back as possible.
Black and White are the best colors.
Now mark upon the back of the gloves
your monogram. or get it stamped
there. With silk the color of your
walking dress you now embroider he

LABOR LAWS CAN BE REPEALED.

Much has been said of the Ha-
waiian Governments desire to do
away with the penal contract labor
laws and such municipal laws in
Hawaii, not specially continued in
force by the Newlands' resolution,
as are manifestly contrary to
the constitution. Apparently the
executive officials of Hawaii are OBJ
ligt d, whether or no, to enforce
these laws, by virtue of the deci-
sion of the Supreme Court. Thus
they stand presumably with their
hands tied, but sorrowful that they
must stand by the law and wait for
the United States Congress to take
action. The full responsibility for
laws not In keeping with the spirit
OF the Constitution of the United
States is thrown upon President
Mckinley and Congress.
Has it ever occurred to the exc
cutive officials of Hawaii to seri-
ously consider whether or no they
have the right to call an extra ses-
sion OF the Legislature and secure
a repeal of the contract labor laws
and thereby assume somewhat of
the responsibility as we'll as
the glory of placing Hawaii
on gu Am erican basis and there
BY placing upon "our enemies in
Congress" any and all RESPONSE
bility for placing Hawaii on an
,unAmerican basis =? Is it true
that the officials of Hawaii censi-
der it improper for them to as
sumo an active part in moulding
the Hawaiian laws, so far as pos
sib.e, into the American cast
which, on the surface, they hope
the American Congress will turn
out : Is it true that the executive
ofieiais cannot call upon the leg
islstive branch, continued in
Office by the President :?
The official organ sometime ago
suggested the appointment of
local com loission to plead Ha waits
cause before Congress. 1t fights
shy, however, Of suggesting action
on the part of any official in the
Executive, Judicial and Legisla-
tive branch of the Government
which shall place hey question
the integrity of Hawaii in it's de,
mauds for full American laws.
Is this lack of activity in off
cial life due to a desire to act in
full accordance with sdministra-
ton officials or is the result Of
desire to keep Hawsii's penal con-
tract labor laws in force as long as
possible, hoping still that by some
hook or crook some vestige of
those laws may be retained when
Congress enacts the laws for this
territory ?
We ask you gentlemen knowing
full we'll that you'll probably sit
back and reiterate the official
that sit would be no
