The New York State Household
Economic association proposes to dis
cover how many steps a housewife
takes in day.
1t is estimated that 1000 steps make
a mile, and the proposition is to COM
pute how many miles are covered a
day by the housewife in the prepare
ton of her meals and washing Of
dishes. Considering 1000 meals as the
average for the year, the mileage in
volved is something stupendous
Members of the association have by
no means undertaken this labor as a
mere course of metal gymnastics. The
purpose in view is to discover how
often two steps might serve instead of
three. and to use the statistics as a

II is the woman who has the courage
to be herself who attracts. Originals
are so much more desirable than
copies. no matter how accurate the
copy may be. Let every woman dare
to be hereslf. develop her own individ-
uality. not blindly copy some other
woman, whom. 1t may be, her husband
happens TO admire.
Let every woman think for herself,
act for herself. and express her own
honest opinions. individuality. when
combined with that nameless some
thing called manner, is the most po-
tent weapon in the possession Of the
sex. A good woman's laugh is better
than medicine. A well told story is as
welcome as sunbeam in sick room.
Learn to keep your own troubles to
yourself. The world is too busy to
care for your ills and sorrows. Don't
continually cry. Tears do well enough
in novels, but are not desirable in life.

of people will take time to consider.
The aim of the Fish Commission is to
foster the fisheries upon scientific prin-
ciples. At the present time our fisher
les are slowly but surely being ruined,
and a bill to improve them and prevent
the frghtfu waste going on in the shall
low waters of the bays and lagoons
was promptly turned down by the
Legislature.
AS the result of experience there was
control of the fisheries by the print
tive Hawaiians. Like all such regula-
tons the restrictions upon catching
fish were inter mixed with religious
ceremonies and religious ideas. The
chiefs established close season when
no fish could be caught, and they had
the right of tabuing the capture of GER
tain kinds of fish. Indeed the fishing
customs of the Hawaiians were quite
elaborate and intricate, and require
considerable study to make a person
moderately well acquainted with them.
OF these customs and regulations
some have come down to us and are
embodied i'm our laws. Others have
been cast aside and forgotten. Though
the Hawaiian system was, like all prim-
tive systems, empirical, yet it was
based upon observation accumulated
through a great length of time and it
served a useful purpose. AS primitive
custom gave way before a new civiliza-
ton, the fisheries lost that full 0rotec-
ton which they had had under print.

ton started in.
Civilized nations have only compare

them from the sea. The couplet

there was no necessity to consider the
sea crop. 1t was ineXhaustible and it
could be wasted without the waste hav-
ing any appreciate influence. But we
know better now, and the result is
that every enlightened nation is en-
ploying it's foremost scientific men in
studying the fisheries question.
One of the happiest results of our be-
coming an integral portion of the Great
Republic is that our fisheries will be
preserved. The work of destruction
which has been going on will eventual
ly be put a stop to, and one of our most
important sources of food supply VIII
be saved. The arrival, then of Presi-
dent Jordan should be hailed as parti-

Ruling as the Supreme Court deci

said was passed at the end of the ses-

has ample powers to regulate the Phil

30, as will be seen in another column
foreshadowed an extra session.
