SPECIAL SALE.

Sweet Clorinda, fresh and fair,
Stood behind the powered rail,
Mistress of the counter where
Goods most precious were on sale.
Sofa customs? Tides? No
Nothing by her fingers made
Rarer, dearer, choicer, Oh
Kisses were her stock-in-trade.
All! the sample was so sweet
Which | purchased at her store,
That thought / would repeat
Maybe halfa-dozen more.
So said /, becoming bold.
III proposition make.
Here's my wallet filled with gold,
Let me all your kisses take"
Then my purse handed out
Trusting she would deem it fair;
But she seemed bit in doubt.
mo, kind sir, you've had your share
For, you see, the goods l SELL

desirable or considered beautiful is a
problem hard to solve, since it involves
not only an enormous loss of strength
and vigor, but violation of all the
relevant precepts and principles of
art which have been handed down to
us by the great masters as we'll as
rules of hygiene in which all medical
men agree.
Injury to the Functions.
One of the principal particulars in
which the ordinary mode of dress
among civilized women results in
physical injury is the downward dis
placement of all the abdominal and
pelvic organs and numerous functional
and organic diseases growing out of
this disturbance of the static rela-
tons of these organs. The idea that
a displaced stomach may be the cause
of disease or inconvenience may be
new to some. Nevertheless the re-
searches of Glenard, Bouchard, Du-
jardin-Beaumetz and other eminent
physicians have shown beyond room
for doubt the displacement of the
stomach, bowels, kidney, liver and
other abdominal viscera may be pro-
turbance of health and a source of
great inconvenience.
Indeed from my own studies on
the subject" says Kellogg, Il have be-
come convinced that a displaced and
dilated stomach is more likely to be
productive of immediate and harmful
consequences of a grave character than
displacement of the pelvic viseera."
The matter of woman's dress, says
Helen l.. Belts, is one in which public
opinion has a powerful influence, es-
pecially the opinion of men. Women
dress not for their own comfort or the
health of posterity, but to please their
brothers and their husbands. Men
could WELD mighty influence for
good in this work if they only realized
it's Importance. AS man has a more
extended field for observation, woman
has come naturally to regard his
opinion with Difference. Woman ply
sicians especially work here at dis
advantage. With most women, save
those in the advance ranks of
thought, any suggestion in the way of
hygiene in dress is Immediately brand
ed as dress reform; straightway the
masculine, pantaloon-type of dress is
branded and they say: What else
could we expect from one who could
study medicine?'
Women do not like to be laughed at
and called strongminded. They would
, rather suffer pain and discomfort in
body than be wounded in heart by
those whom they love. This seems a
plight-certainly we are warranted in
using the word, for never was mortal
more plicated, EMBODIED, almost mex
ltricably entangled-this seems a plight
IN which you, my brothers. have
work to accomplish which no one else
can do.

OLD PONY EXPRESS REDIvIvUs
Hebron, Neb., Witnesses a Revival of
Famous Cross Country Riding.

Forty years ago the great plains Of
the west were crossed by a set of dar-
ing riders who were known as the
pony express" History, romance and
tradition are filled with stories of the
doings of this band of daring men
But that was at a time when il was
dangerous to stroll beyond the parade
ground at Fort Leavenworth unless
one had a friendly standing or whole
sale contempt for Indians. All others
who went forth might fall victims RI
war medicine.
With the passing of the Indian as a
predatory warrior and his admiration
10 the arts of peace as an actor in an
open-air drama the reason for the ponv
express passed also. But out in Ne
braska, the land of sand dunes which
outmeasure those of Jackson nark
they have recently witnessed a revival
of this pony express. Not that a Iacl,
of railroads has caused the revival or
that Indians abound, but that the ex-
press company at Hebron has come m
The conclusion that a municipal tax il
unwarranted.
Hebron needs money and has taxed
all companies which do business in the
corporate limits. The express COM
pany declined to pay the license and
moved out. So pony express service
has been established between Hebron
and Belvidere. The latter town is a
bit more liberal, so the story goes. and
the company is attempting to hold IT'S
own with a few outriders.

THE BRAVE LITTLE BELGIAN.

Belgian is the most confused little
nationality on earth. In the great
cities the population is made up of in
extricable mixtures of Flemish races
and the Walloons, pure French, and
Germans. Add to this broad splashes
of the Spanish blood that came in with
the princes of the last century, and
you have curious conglomerate man

PENNY SAVINGS BANK.

The success Of the penny savings
bank in every city where charltably in
ciincd people have inaugurated the
plan, is of a nature to draw favorable
attention Of our local philanthropists.
In nearly every instance, this form
of teaching children habits of thrift
has exceeded the hopes Of the origina-
tors.
In . recent copy of the State Depart
meIt Consular Reports, Consul Rowon
gives the details of results obtained By
the penny savings bank in the Falkland
Islands. The dean Of the Episcopal
church was the promoter Of the scheme.
On every Monday morning the children
bring their accumulatons Of pennies
to the government school for deposit

ledger. The whole thing does not take
more than ten minutes.
As TO results, the following items arr
taken from last years balance sheets:
In 1893, II new accounts were opened
up ana II closed, leaving 81 depositors
among whom the balance. on hand
$G,l G.4G-was distributed. This gives
an average of about S33.17 to each de,
Eosltor. During the year, $527.77 were
withdrawn in 50 separate Withdrawals
On the deposits loaned to the Govern
ment Savings Bank, there was paid
5000. When the parents realized the
value of the bank, they began TO lie.
post in the name Of their children, and
at last the government took hold Of
the natter and organized a regular say,
ings bank. The number of depositors
is steadily increasing.
Honolulu, with its hundred or more
ncwsbOys ought to be a particularly
fruitful field for carrying out the penny
savings bank scheme. There is hardly
a newsboy on the street who does moi
make a dollar day and many take IN
a larger sum. At the present time the
most OF this money goes as fast as it. Il

OF life and little If any goes into saJ'

which will pay splendid dividends on

more important return of creating
habits of thrift and industry among The

INDEPENDENCE DAY.

This is the fifty-seventh anniversary
Of the recognition of Hawaiian indie
Tenjence by Great Britain and France.
The United States did not join in the
act because It had stood as the cham
pion Of Hawaiian independence Some
what through the influence Of the Unit
ed States 1t was that the British and
Frenc hrecognition came. Nearly four
months previously, on July 81. 1913
Admiral Thomas OF the British navy
restored the Hawaiian flag which had
been taken down by Captain Lord
George Paulet, who hoisted the Union
Jack in its place. some months before.
The ceremony Of the flag restoration
WAS held where Thomas square through
its name perpetuates the event. For
period of some years, not long ago,
both July 81 and November 2S wore
statutory holidays. The Provisional
Government, the Republic and the Ter
ritory have preserved this day as Il
public holiday
