HELPS LONG LINES.

A new regulator has been put in the
Hawaiian Electric Company's works,
which will materially strengthen the
light on the long lines. Heretofore in
the extreme outlying districts the light
would frequently be very weak and 1t
was impossible to strengthen it. The
new machinery is guaranteed to in
crease the force of light at long dis
tances ten per cent.
The machinery has been installed,
and will be in working order in a few
nights

POINTS OF MERIT.

Strong, durable, easy running, simple
attachments, all the result of constant
study for many years, of men who have
made a life study of perfecting the
Singer sewing machine. With few
equals, 1t has no superior, and is sod
as low as any other first class sewing
machine. Buy a Singer and you take
no chances. If you doubt our word,
ask your neighbor who has been using
a Singer for the past ten or twea-y
years. For sale by b. Bergerson, agent,
