BUSINESS CONSIDERATIONS.

The Board of Health cannot act too
promptly in taking steps that will al
low greater freedom of trade between
the different islands and with outside
ports. As the Citizens Committee has
found It necessary to change the house
to house inspection scheme, so the
Health Board is practically forced into
a general change of policy that will re-
duce the restrictions on traffic. This
future policy must be designed on
broad lines applicable to the situation
whether the plague lasts for month
or a year.
Restrictions to which all merchants
are now subjected were made on the
basis that the plague would be prompt
ly stamped out" Through no fault
of the authorities or Of the intelligent
people of the country this end has not
been accomplished. The epidemic has
been stayed. With the continuance of
the house to house inspection there is
every reason to believe, 1t can be held
in check. The inspection system as
now organized can be continued for a
year II necessary, or longer.
Trade conditions as they exist to-
day, however, cannot continue. The
avenues of inter-island traffic must be
opened up, to allow at least as much
freedom of trade and travel as Is now
granted in ports of the United States
at which Hawaii's cargoes and passen-
gers enter. Nor can Hawaii continue
its present restrictions on foreign COM
merce. The people and the authorities
must deal with the situation as 1t is.
not as 1t ought to be. Commerce can
not stop. 1t must move either back
ward or forward. Present regulations
tend toward serious retrogression.
Hawaii must meet the situation so
far as possible as 1t Is met in the
Orient, where commerce continues
without serious let or hindrance.

The New Year Begets
New Things

FOR THE BOYS. Have you ever stop.
ped to think what d ffererce there is in
the makes of boys clothingl Many suits
ar. bought because the price Is low. It Is
often the price that governs the purchaser,
and not the quality or the substantial
makes. This theory seems to be based on
the idea that any kind of a suit Is good
enough for huv, as he will soon wear 1t
out. That Is not good economy, for II you
would lay little more, and consider quail
lty and make, you would have a suit for
the boy that woul always look well and
outwea' two suits of the inferior grades.
To buv the best Is money In pocket; to
buy the poorest Is mo iey wasted. We

CHAPTER Will

Adrienne Breynton sat alone in her
dainty boudoir. 1t was July now, and
the dead season in Cairo. Shepheard's
was deserted. No longer gay English
and American tourists made the ball
rooms and the verandas ring with
their chatter and laughter.
Adriennes beautiful face was paler
than usual. She looked like one who
had received a heavy blow So, in
deed, she had. Adrienne did not con-
ceal the truth from herself.
Only week ago the Anglo-Egypt-
ian troops, flushed and triumphant
with their victory at Atbara, had
marched into Cairo to the sound of
victorious music, blaring trumpets and
screaming pipes. The colonel, Adri-
ennes brother, had come to her for
.congratulation, and had found her like
a ghost, pale and wan.
You are i'll, Adrienne," he said,
,anxiously, when the first greetings
were over. This climate is begin
ming to- tell upon you. You must take
a trip home, and remain there during
the summer months
Adrienne shook her head, her lips
Quivering.
1T is nothing, Ned; I have been a
little upset, that is all. We women,
who stay at home and don't share
all the excitement and glory of the
enterprise, are apt to get little de-
pressed and anxious over the results
Of it. And war is terrible thing at
best. There are always some brave
fellows left behind when you march
away with the glory of triumph from
the battlefield"
"Ay, that is true" said the colonel,
signing yfttle; "but 1t is glorious
death, AddH-no brave fellow could
desire a better. A thousand times
better than to be taken prisoner;
that's the fate man breads. And that
reminds me- there's one poor fellow

SUPPLY OF IRON.
World Consumes About 100000 Tons
Year.

Year.
A good deal of anxiety has been felt
during the last two years as to the
available supplies of iron ore and fuel.
The total worlds consumption of iron
ores in 1899 was probably more than
United States contributed more than
% 100000. But in all countries alike
exceptional efforts were made to in
crease the output so as to overtake the
greatly stimulated demand. These eff
forts are still being continued, says the
Engineering Magazine. Spain has
been ransacked from one end to the
other. in order to increase the avail
able supplies. France is opening up
new sources of supply in Greece, North
have sought to acquire almost mon
opoly of the supply of Swedish Lap
land-within the Arctic circle-for a
number of years to come, and have
concluded arrangements which point
to their belief that iron ores are likely
to become increasingly scarce. This is
a general apprehension, and if it is
justified by the facts, then it seems to
be probable that this condition may
mainly determine future supremacy.
Nine. de Stael once observed that
Providence fights on the side of the
biggest battalions." In the war of COM
merce and industry it is conceivable
that Providence may in future seem to
interpose on behalf Of the nation that
has the largest available supplies Of
cheap iron ores.-Chicago Record.

Geysers Rebel when Required to Mako
Suds.
Some few years ago an unfortunate
discovery for a time menaced the
tranquility and almost the existence
Of some OF the geysers In Yellowstone
park. The story goes that an adyen'
turous Chinaman once essayed to use
the bowl OF one of the geysers for the
purpose of washing clothes. the tenn
perature of the water appealing to his
oriental mind. Everything went well
until he began to use soap, when sud-
denly violent eruption seized tho
apparently innocent geyser, hurting
clothes and all into the air. The ex-
pertinent was tried on other geysers
with similar results. and for time
II was considered a good blessing, as.
when large tourist parties arrived, 1t
was great convenience to bring on
a special display by ''soaping the gey-
SER" as II was called: while before
the advent of the Chinaman and his
soap, some OF the most beautiful gey-
sers often remained stubbornly mac
tive for days and often weeks and
months. After time, however. 1t
was discovered that this soaping was
slowly but surely harming the geyser
action, "tiring them out" in fact, and
thereupon the government put stop
to the use OF soap In the park in con-
nection with the geysers.-From
Truth.

A few years ago a Social-Democratic

CHINESE FUNERAL HONoRS.
Material Objects Transmitted to tn,

Material objects Transmitted to tho
Other World by Fire.
The Chinese believe that the souls
OF the departed continue In conscious
existence after death and that their
happiness or misery Is caused by the
location Of the grave and the offerings
made by their surviving relatives. The
common faith is that in the other
world the spirits needs are essentially
those experienced in this life. The
dead are supposed to be wholly de-
pendent upon the living for food.
clothing and money. Such articles are
thought to be rendered invisible and
means Of fire. When a man dies the
clothing which he wore during his life
is Immediately burned so that he may
not appear In the other world as a
beggar, without suitable apparel.
Great quantities of imitation money,
covered with tinfoil are consumed in
the fire, with the object of bribing the
officials of the lower regions to release
the soul from purgatory. Paper houses,
furniture, servants, everything to
give dignity and standing to the de-
ceased, are purchased by the family
for this pious holocaust. The inn
portant feature OF the funeral is a
procession, in which the articles are
exhibited, followed by bonfire in
which all are burned, that thus they
may be changed into similar articles
invisible to mortal eyes. Usually the
chief piece is something distinctive of
the dead. In the case Of sea captain
this would be paper ship, as large
as possible. In the case of general,
II would be a horse.

One OF the most interesting religious
buildings in the United States Is the
Bruton Parish Church, at Williams
burg, Va, the first pastor of which was
Rev. Rowland Jones, an ancestor OF
Martha Washington. Erected in 1910,
1t is now in a good state of preserva-
tion, and the antique bell still rings
out its message, calling all who hear
1t to attend divine services beneath its
time-honored roof. Bruton Old Church
Is well worth visit.
The church has a triple-story
tower of which our English colonies
were so fond. Ii can still boast Of ma
hogany pews. The aisles were paved
with flag stones. On the walls are
some quaint mural tablets reciting the
virtues and piety of worthless of the

ancient capital OF Virginia and in the
quiet churchyard of Bruton Old Church
the tombs of the Parke Gusts family
and those bearing well-known Vir-
ginia names OF Page, Burwell, Lyttle-
ton. Savage and Nelson are found.
Bruton Parish Church houses three
antique communion services, one pre-
sented by good Queen Anne" who
did her duty as defender of the faith
by equipping infant colonial branches
of the Church of England with eccle-
