nlGHT UP TO DATE. NensOn's Plaster is Pains Master.)

These are days of records and of the beat. ing of records. Benson's Porous Plaster. for quickness of action and thoroughness of cure, has no records to beat except it's own.
 Benson's Plaster, always the best, always the leader, is to-day better Maa eser. It sticks to the skin but never sticks in it's tracks. It marches on.
 The people not only want to be cured but cured quSctlg-and Benson's Plaster does it. Coughs, colds, lumbago. asthma, bronchitis, liver and kidney complaints, and other ills approachable by an external remedy, yiell to Benson's as icedoe to heat.
 Neither Belladonna, Strengthening or Capsicum plasters are to be compared wita Benson's. People who have once tested the merits of Benson's Plaster have no use for any other external remedy.
 More than 5000 physicians and drug gists (and thousand times as many non professional persons) have called Benson's Plasters one of the few O home remedies that can be trusted.
 Fifty-hve highest awards have been made to 1t in competition with the best known plasters of Europe and America. Better proof cf its merits is ineonceiyable. Be sure to get the genuine.
 For sale by all druggists, or we will pre- pay postage on any number ordered in the United States, on receipt of 25c. each.

We Want Your Business.

Do you keep a bank account? Years ago the banks seemed to shrink from publicity. There was something about them akin to the divinity which was said to hedge about kings.
 Bank directors used to meet in star chambers and solemnly go through the form of initiating ap- plicants for discount who had stuff cient nerve and security to stand the ordeal.
 All this is changing. We would especially impress upon you that we intend our place of business shall be easily accessible to every man, woman and child.

Hawaii is doing little in the manu-
facture of cigars. as shown by the an
nUal report of the Commissioner Of In

recently made public. There are two fac
tories in the Territory. and they used
during the year 4,002 pounds of tobacco,
which was worked into 1900 cigars
weighing more than three pounds to the
thousand. No plug tobacco was manu-
featured in the Territory.
The number of gallons of spirits recti-
fed in the Territory of Hawaii during
the last fiscal year was 1,527.74 gallons.
The Territory has no registered distil-
leries. Besides the quantity rectified. as
already stated, there was dumped for
rectifcation Il, 233 gallons. This makes
total of 1,761 gallons of spirits gagged
during the year. The production of fer
mented liquors in the Territory during
the year aggregated Lob barrels.

sioner of Public Lands, said that he
was in accord with much that was in
the message of the President. Speak
ing Of the matter he continued. The
ends which the President wishes to see
accomplished are those which we have
Striven for here. All of the land laws
under which the domain is now admin
istered are founded upon the one idea
of making an opening for settlers who
will found homes. The difficulty Is that
the people in the East do not under
stand just what conditions exist here.
The Hawaiians are not farmers upon a
large scale and the only people here
who now make a good revenue from
farming are the Japanese ard Chinese.
There may be a farming population in
the future, but it does not seem posi-
BILE that this can be effected verv coon.
1t is most desirable and would be just
what we have worked and hoped for
here for many years. The application of
the present system of the United States
however, will have to be made with
many variations, and 1 believe there
must be thorough Investigation of the
lands before there can be any legisla-
ton"
