THE SHIRT WAIST MAN.

BY all means let the masculine
shirt t-waist be introduced in Homo
lulu. 1t will make becoming cool
and comfortable costume, and it is
about,time that high collars, vests
and coats are discarded. We may
have shirt waists in sombre colors
to suit the dignity OF Serene Bishop
and p. G. Jones, and we can have
them in tasty and gay colovs to suit
Bert Peterson and Judge Dickey.
We hope the dry goods houses will
soon advertise the advent of the
shirt-waist-we will set the fashion
and all will wear them and feel com.
Portable. The following ode to the
shirt-waist man which appears in
the Baltimore american is prophecy
which we hail with pleasure:
The shirt-waist man is coming-he
is strutting into view.
His smile OF satisfaction shows he's
made his mind up, too,
He wears look that marks the soul
by coolest comfort blest.
He doesn't care what people think
he's doffed his coat and vest,
And now he is devising diplomatic
means and ways
OF introducing pantaloons to wear
on rainy days.
The shirt-waist man is here to stay;
full we'll he plainy sees
That fashions dictates have shut
off lot of pleasant breeze,
And if he takes notion that he
wants it made that way
He'll have his shirt designed and
cut in bold decoHette.
And trousers built for rainy days
he'll order next-thaps what.
And wear them all the summer
through, If there is rain or not.
The shirt-waist man-huraah for
himl Now let him set the pace,
And give aome cooler clothing to
one-half the human race.
Let's have the shirt-waists with
short sleeves and lace insertion,
30
They'll catch the faintest sort of
breeze that e'er was known to blow
And don't forget, Oh, tailorman
you must abbreviate
The trousers, 80 that all the man
may be in coolest state.
The shirt waist mani Make way
for him. He's coming at full
speed.
He marks suffrage movement that
the menfolks sadly need.
Hereafter we'll not be afraid OF
women's SCOTS and sneers
III he foresakes the collar that 30
hotly saws our ears,
And, furthermore, in stern demand,
let us our voices raise
And call for trousers we can wear
in peace on rainy days.

ALesson In seamanship.

Captain Hans Miron, who lost his
life at his post Of duty on the burning
Saale at Hoboken. was fond of telling
Of his early introduction to the stern
realities of his chosen career. He had
but lust come ON board the schooner
where as cabin boy he was to serve his
apprenticeship to the sea and was still
staring about him with boyish interest
and inquisitiveness when the skipper
approached and ordered him to assist
in washing down the deck.
He put down his bundle and started
awkwardly to do so. when a second
order accompanied by emphatic eX-
pletives. was given him to take off his
shoes and stockings. He was perfectly
willing 10 oblige, but at nome he had
not been permitted TO wet his feet.
mo" he answered innocently, with an
engaging smile, 81 should not mind,
but my mother does not allow It."
The skipper was rough old sea dog
who did not appreciate obedience I'M
less it was rendered TO himself, and his
reply was a stunning blow that flung
the boy across the deck. "But after
that" Captain MirOn would say, with a
great laugh and not a shadow of re-
sentiment, 81 knew who was captain Of
that schooner, and It was not my
mother"
