Mixed joy and Sorrow.

In spite OF Honolulu being a plague
infected port the United States trans
ports will go TO Manila via that port in
stead OF via Hiio. which Is clean. With
the number OF merchant vessels ar
irving here this decision will DE read
with considerable JOY by merchants
who have been unable TO get their
freight promptly from the vessels and
by captains who are Obliged 10 wait
for lighters on which TO discharge or
load. On the other hand. the change
will be felt I'm a general way, for the
transports left little money In port
and small traders got the benefit OF 90.
All the transport captains who have
been here speak highly OF Hilo and
the harbor, but they have the same
cry for breakwater and better wharf
facilities. Perhaps when these i'm
proyements are made Honolulu will
not have the same strong grounds for
bucking Hilo commercially.

Of these roads have been constructed

QUESTION ANSWERED.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the civ
ilized world. Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors were scarce, and they
seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous
Prostitution or Heart failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation Of I'M
digested food regulate the action of the
liver, stimulate the nervous and oragniG
action of the system, and that is all
they took when feeling dull and bad
with headaches and other aches. You
only need a few doses of Green's August
Flower, in liquid form, to make you
satisfied there is nothing serious the
matter with you. For sale by r. l..
