performance of the woman who just
went away from the phone.
Honestly, that custom Is a new
one on me. I've been working in
drug stores, one place and another,
good many years, and have heard
several millions of women talk
through the phone, but this is the
first time ever heard one of them
kiss over the wire.
"Sure, didn't you hear it? Why,
the smack sounded like a popgun.
I'll bet the fellow at the other end
of the line caught it, all right. He
couldn't miss it, even II he was away
out in San Francisco.

stood Kamaukapili church. The second
tower was thrown down yesterday and
the work of cleaning and carting away
the bricks goes on rapidly. The site must
be cleared before the first of the year,

years. 1t Is possible that. when the site
Is dug into, some stones from the ancient

4 LIAM HERBERT has great hopes
u of the Smyrna fig being propagot-
n ed in the Hawaiian Islands, as he
has successfully passed the expert
mental stage here in the development
of this fine fruit. The experiments
with the fig tree have been conducted
at Mr.. Herbert's Kalihi place, and he
sees no reason why the trees should not
now be imported by the thousands, so
that the fruit, hitherto brought FROM
far away Africa, along the Mediterran-
can, can be raised here and the prod
uct placed on the market at "A price
which will give an opportunity for even
the school children to enjoy the fig in
large quantities.
Speaking ON the possibilities Of tig
culture in Hawaii Mr.. Herbert said

ma fig really is will no doubt lead to a

YALE F. O. STATION

The Yale station of the New Haven postofflce has proved such an unquali- fled success that there is not the slightest doubt but that it will be a permanent feature The Yale station now has all the attributes of any sec- ond class office in the country. Domes- tic and interna tional money orders may be cashed at or sent from this office and personal money orders may also be deposited and drawn out from time to time, by the depostor, thus taking the place of bank account.
 The station has surpassed the expec- tations of the postal authorities in that 1t has transacted a business equal to that of the postoffice of the average city of 30000 inhabitants At first a super intendent and one assistant were sta toned there, but another assistant was soon found necessary and was granted to MT. Clark.
 The receipts up to February l have been $3,20603.
 In the first month about 95,000 pieces of mail matter were received and 57,000 pieces were despat atched; 154 money or ders were made out and 216 cashed; l01 registered letters were sent and 133 received; while the sales amounted to $S75. About this general average has been maintained, although in Decem- Der the sales were s1,023.42 and in Mo- cember, owing to the football game tickets, 673 registered letters were des- patched.
 The present plan is to remove the postoffice next fall to Fayerweather hall, where the improved facilities and should make the@ station even more of q success than it has been this year.-Yale News
