The sugar plantations on Maui can
effect this great benefit to the we'll

and as an act of "thankfulness" for
many mercies in dividends paid and

is another Revelation, and that may
not speedily come.
1t remains therefore for some phil
anthropist, or speculator, or specula-

project of improving the bodies of
men, women and children. Perhaps
the Rev. Mr.. Kincaid, whose preaching
is so cordially approved of in this COM

this practical and human side of our
lives Perhaps the other faithful
preachers may also urge the improve
ment of the conditions that make
sound bodies, and good souls. =,

BLUE FLAME OIL STOVE.

y sort Of dread may prevail among
housewives that perhaps these stoves
might explode. but We can honestly say
that they are perfectly safe in every
home. To endorse our statement Jus,
have talk with any insurance agent:
he will tell you at once that he would
rather insure a home where these
stoves are used than issue a policy on
! home where different stoves are used.
You wonder why the Blue Flame
stove should be better than any other.
Wen tell you. In this country the mat
ter Of fuel IS a very large item OF cx-
pense. As you have turned over
new leaf since the New Year and in
tend economizIng where you never
thought OF before. you may begin on
your coal and wood. Il Is a positive
fact that the BLUE FLAME uses
only about ona-half the quantity Of fuel
any other stove does. Another great
advantage Is that there Is no smoke OF
smel,.
These stoves are placed on rollers
and are so light they can be easily
moved about. We have them IN two
sizes. one with two burners with oven
attached and the other with three
burners with oven. CThe price Of these
stoves Is SIC. sss.5o and sss.OO). We
can't tell you all about them: the best
thing to do Is TO come and look at
them.

it appears that in these Islands there
is the largest circulation, per capita,
in the world If the Asiatic population
is dedrcted, because it is alien and

is simply financial phenomenon. Here

occupies the site on which the first

in the oldest record of Boston's public
houses as Coles tavern. In an account

The son of very wealthy man at his
fathers death found himself free to
indulge every within. He had yachts,
horses, an island on which he played
king at his pleasure. He was not an
immoral man, but idle and foolish.
One day while using a iong-distance
telephone, he was charmed by the voice
of the operator at the, other end of the
line. He managed to discover that it
was that of woman, young, single and
pretty. In the course of few days
he convinced himself that the owner of
the voice was the one human being
who should be his wife, and that life
would be empty and desolate. without
