1t Is Natures Own Remedy.

First used by the Mississippi river
steamboat men In the early forties,
who drank their "Benne Tedd' from the
hands of the colored 'aunties." They
STEPPED the leaves In hot water and the
verdict of these steamboat men was that
It did the business"
In 1871, James and Constance Mcguire
secured some of these miraculous leaves.
and, upon investiga ton. discovered that
they are Identical with the Sesam. Ind.
tBenne-Leaves). and as the same indi-
Gates. native of India, containing a
mucilaginous substance OF soothing and
healing properties. Nature here furnished
a remedy for diseases such as Collie,
Cholera Morbus, Diarrhoea, Dysentery
and kindred ailments. After experiment
ing, the Messrs. Mcguire succeeded in
chemically combining the use of the
Benne-leaves with other vegetable sub
stances, and so furnished a remedy that
has saved thousands Of lives.

A Saloon CLOSED

The Supreme Court filed a decision
yesterday which will close the Off,
man saloon at Waikiki. Many impor-
tant questions are involved in the
case. The place has been running
about year; during this time Peacock
and the Annex were given modified sa-
loon licenses. The law providing for
light wine and beer licenses forbids
the issuance of any license under 1t to
operate at any place within two miles
OF saloon. At the end of the year
Gilman applied for renewal of his H.
cense. 1t was refused on the ground
that his place was within two miles of
Peacock's establishment. The matter
was referred to the Supreme Court.
The following is the courts summary:
Held, that a renewal of light wine
and beer license cannot be issued with
n the prescribed limits (two miles
from saloon) after the issuance of a
spirituous liquor license therein, even
though the latter was not issued until
after the light wine and beer license
was issued in the first instance.

Sun Worahin.

The most complete system Of sun
worship that we have any account of
was that existing in Peru when dlscov-
cred by the Spanlards in 1926. The
Incas, as the Peruvian monarchs were
called, claimed to be children of the
sun and his representatives on earth
Their government was deSpOtic JheOc-
racy, of which the Inca was both high
priest and king. In Cuzco, the capital
stood a splendid temple to the sun, in
which all the implements were of solid
gold. On the west end of the interior
was a representation of the suns disk.
and rays in the same precious metal
so placed that the rising sun, shining Il
at the open east end, fell full upon the
image and was reflected with dazzling
splendor. In the plaza or square OF
the temple a great annual festival was
held at the summer solstice. The null
titude assembled from all parts Of the
empire, and presided over by the Inca
awaited in breathless solemnity the
first rays Of their deity to strike the
golden image in the temple when they
all Frustrated themselves in alteration
Sacrifices. similar to those of the Jews,
we're offered on the occasion, and bread
and wine were partaken Of in manner
strikingly resembling the Christian sac
rament. The moon as the spouse OF
the sun, the planet Venus as his page
the Pleiades, and the remarkable con-
oscillation Of the Southern Cross, were
minor deities. The rainbow and light
ming we're also wOrshipped as servants
Of the sun; and fire, air, earth ana
water were not without alteration. In
fact. there was little in Nature that the
Peruvians did not eontrive to make a
deity.
