Grace at Meals.

During the last generation 1t was
very rare to see any family begin a
meal without grace, but the omission
of this ceremony is becoming more
common every year in some sections.
1t seems that there is a like decline
of the custom in England. An English
writer who has observed this tendency
for several years past, and Is much
panied by it, declares that the aban-
donment of grace before meals is "the
most notable change in private relig-
ious observance in London"
The Springfield (Mass.) Republican
makes the surprising declaration that
Saying the blessing" is still observed
on many public occasions, but that
it is comparatively seldom heard in
New England families, even when
they are descended from Puritan for
bears and have inherited the whole
body Of Puritan traditions"
The habit Of saying grace may have
fallen off to some extent in the South,
but it has not declined to anything
like the extent it has in either New
England or in old England. 1t is still
the rule in the great majority Of South
ern households, and will continue to
be so for long time to come. At

theory for those who have ample seems
to find an excuse for taking a trip
abroad. But there are plenty of eau
casians male and female, who have re-
manned in their tropic environment for
ten, fifteen. twenty and more years,
without ever visiting the temperate
zone. who are perfectly healthy and
carry their years as well, if not better,
than do people who have passed all
their lives in temperate regions Indeed
people who live in the large cities of
the mainland or of Europe need change
far more than our people. The people
of cities are obliged to get out at least
once a year to breathe fresh air. Here
fresh air is the privilege of all, whether
in city or country. That change is
pleasant no one will deny, but that the
inhabitants of this Territory must have
constant change of the temperate zone
to renew their vitality is so much sheer
bosh.
As to degeneracy of race, there has
been a great deal written and said up
on this point. Let us take look at
the athletics of our young men. In our
various sports, and we have many, we
find young men, mingling and contend
ing who are at first hand from the tenn
perate zone, young men who are the
third generation of the Island Caucasi-
an population, and young when who are
aborigines of the soil. If we make a
list of the winners in such contests we
find no preponderance of 'Caucasians
from the temperate zone. The Island
bred boys stand as well as their tenn
perate bred competitors And not only
this, but when our Island bred boys
go abroad to the Universities and Col
leges of the Mainland they hold their
own, and more than their own, con-
sidering the smallness of their numbers,
among the athletes from every state of
the Union.
1t is so easy to generalize and to keep
handing on fallacious statements. Men
and women wear out here from various
reasons, often from overwork. But
they do not wear out any sooner than
they would on the Mainland, and it is
very possible that the evenness of the
longer. And this ability to work is not
confined to physical labor but is also
applicable to mental labor. AS hard
and exacting mental labor for long
with equal ease as upon the Mainland

STARTLING.

Mallock asked, some years ago, rs
life worth living?" and answered it to
suit his cynical views. But now that
the bacteriologist is around one is
tempted to ask rs food worth eating?"
Are liquids worth drinking?" PRINT
tive man who knew nothing of bacteria
must certainly have been happy. He
gnawed his putrid bone and enjoyed it,
and if he got the stomach ache after
wards, he thought it was the work of
one devil, while we know it is the work
of millions of bacteria
According to a paper recently read
before the American Society of Bacteri-
ologists our present methods of testing
milk are no true safeguard. 1t is the
bacteria we must guard against. In
the coolest weather one sixteenth of
a cubic inch of milk contains 100000
bacteria of sorts, during cool weather
there are 100000 wigglers in the same
quantity, and in hot weather 100000
bacteria dispOrt themselves in that
limited amount of milk. Just think
of baby having five million bacteria in
it's little inside. 1t will be all bacteria
and no milk.
The famed bacteriologist who has
thus startled all milk drinkers with this
interesting piece of information sug-
gests that all boards of health should
apply the archaeological test to all milk
sold, and that by cold, the number of
bacteria be reduced to 100000 per one
sixteenth cubic inch. Chemist Shorey
has a pretty mathematical problem be-
fore him.

A QUESTION OF CLIMATE.

The Territory of Hawaii, though it
is within the tropics, does not sap the
vitality of the rising generation, nor
has it Slapped the vitality of those who
have migrated from their original
dwellin" places in the temperate zone.
There is an idea which is difficult to
eradicate, that the Caucasian deterio-
rates by residence on the Islands, that
physically he loses his vigor. The idea
e. is erroneous, as facts can be brought
forward to prove. Another prevalent
idea is that every two or three years
the Caucasian must go to more brac-
ing climate for a change, otherwise he,
and especially she will break down.
Taking the first proposition. Does
any Caucasian on the Mainland work
any harder than our plantation man
ayers and our plantation lunas or over
seers. Some of these men have been
from two years to over a quarter of a
century in the business, yet as age
comes on they are not decrepit, worn out
healthy specimens of middle aged man
hood. One cannot name names. but
any one has only to look at men in
the immediate circle of his acquain-
lance or among those he may know
by sight, to be thoroughly convinced
that the popular statement is wrong.
The man in charge of cultivation or
manufacture here, leads no dolce far
niente" life. He is up at four or half
past four in the morning, and if he is
manager of a plantation, is in his
saddle the greater part of the day.
His riding being varied by several miles
of walking. This goes on, week in and
week out year after year. The ranch
man leads a similar life though he has
more leisure as a rule than the plan
tation manager. Neither occupation,
however is compatible with late dinners
and weekly assemblies. 1t is hard
work, trying work, but it takes no more
out of the vitality of a man here, than
it does in California or in Massachus-
sets, once he has become acclimated
The gaunt New Englander, the tall
Westerner the thick set Scot, the stall
wart German alike work hard, flourish
and live long in climate and under the
economic conditions of the Territory.
That it is absolutely necessary for the
Caucasian to go to a more bracing
climate every two or three years is
another fallacy. 1t is convenient

NO EXTENSION.

The extension of the session, after the
exhibition of inability to concentrate
thought and to do work, would be of no
value whatever and the Governor is
right in not granting the extension. In
this resolve he is supported by the bust
ness and professional men of the COM
munity who have the material interests
of the Territory at heart.
The Legislature has now been in ses-
sion fifty days and has not yet put one
vital or radical bill before the Cover
nor Just at the end of it's time it is
trying to hurry up the county bill
which ought to have been discussed
amended and passed in the first thirty
days of the session. There is the city
charter bill, the new tax bill which
ought to have long ago been discussed
and sent IN but the time has been
wasted and frittered away, and were
an extension granted, the time would
be equally wasted and frittered away.
No one need think that if the extension
We're granted the Legislature would
buckle to and get through the appro-
priation bills by the end of the thirty
days. BY no means. Those would be
put off to the extra session and the
Territory would be exactly a month be-
hind in getting the means for carrying
on public improvements which are ur-
gently needed. To extend the session
would be to throw back the progress of
the Territory.
Cl &c he
excuse that the Territory had been or
gained from an amorphous mass
Though the system of government had
been changed from a monarchy to an
Independent republic, and from that tC
a territory of the United States, the
Legislature remained the same. The
men who are sitting in the Legislature
have been accustomed to Legislative
proceedings throughout their lives
There was nothing new in the situation
for them. They knew how much time
there was before them, they knew how
much important work had to be got
through. Instead of facing that work
in spite of flourish of trumpets to the
contrary, it was not ready, and the
time Of the session was wasted in puer-
lie bills which ought never to have been
allowed to come before the Legislators
If we had got the county bill straight
ened out, we might have attended to the
dOg-taX at another time, if we had got
the charter for Honolulu or for all
cities, we could then afford to legislates
about the strength of a cup of coffee
What the thinking public feel keenly
is the frittering away of valuable time
upon trivial matter. The public works
are practically at a standstill, and those
who want to see progress, want to see
these pushed on. Therefore the Cover
nor is strongly supported in his attitude
against the extension of the session.
