THE WORD OF A
HONOLULU CITIZEN
About Doan'S BaCkaChe Kid
ney Pills.

Can this be SO? Is 1t true? These
are the questions which every man and
woman in Honolulu suffering the tor
ture of kidney disease asks as they
read the published accounts In newspa
pers about medicines which claim to
cure it. Whatever the conclusion ar
rived at touching the truth OF these
cures they can't doubt the following,
for it took place in Honolulu and the
experiences are those Of q representa-
tive citizen:
Mr.. Cyrus S. Edison of Kapiolani
Park, this city, says: 81 am at pres
ent a teamster and came to the Islands
fifteen years ago. Previous to that !
drove a stage coach in the United
States. These occupations necessitat-
ing my being out at all seasons were no
doubt the cause Of my kidney disorder,
l had the ordinary symptoms of this
complaint, and resorted to host of
things to cure 1t. All OF them failed
to do so, however, and when l had al
most given up hope l heard about
Doan's Backache Kidney Pills and got
some at the Hollister Drug Co.'s store
They did indeed relieve me and l am
quite satisfied with the benefit they
have been to me-"
Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are for
sale by all dealers; price so cents per
box (six boxes s2.50). Mailed by the
Hollister Drug Co., Honolulu, whole

HIGH PRAISE FOR
THESE ISLANDS
Australian Shipbuilder Says
America Has Got an
Enviable Prize.

Edward Rich. president of the largest
ship building concern in Australia-Ed-
ward Rich & Co., Ltd.-was here yester-
day from Sydney, N. S. w. On his way
to the. United States he stopped off Mt
Honolulu for several days.
"The United States was very fortunate
in securing the Hawaiian Islands and
the other powers very unfortunate, said
Mr. Rich. 'They afford not only an in
valuable coaling station but are in them
selves immensely rich in natural prod
ucts. Honolulu is destined to be a great
capital Its population will increase from
100 to 200 per cent within the next decade
beyond doubt. But everything sold
there is fearfully high, 50 high as to be
prohibitive to the laborlng man. The
day we steamed out of the harbor there
were nine men of war in the harbor
coanng up. Two were English, three
German, one Italian, two French and
one Japanese"
Mr.. Rich is on mis- way to New York
and from there will sail to Dundee, Scot
land, to consult with the Scotch ship
builders. He is at the MiuIand.-Kansas
City Journal.

FRANCE WANTS
TO KEEP THEM
Australia Not Likely to Get
the Islands of
Kerguelen.

Editor Advertiser: Much prominence
has been given by the San Francisco
newspapers to a telegram from Austria
liza, stating that the Federal Govern
ment had decided to ask Mr.. Chamber
lain, the Secretary of State for the Col
onies, TO buy the Kerguelen Islands,
annexed by France in 1898"
| The knowledge of contemporary
French history must be very limited to
the minds of the writer of the above
mentioned dispatch and of the mem
bers of the Federal Government who
have made such a request.
Situated by 40 degrees latitude south
and CT degrees longitude east, the Ker-
guelen Islands have been a possession
of France since 1892, when they were
discovered by Chevaller de Kerguelen,
during his voyage OF exploration.
Four years later Captain Cook landed
there: in 1910 Ross visited the Islands
and since that time they have been the
Headquarters of fleet of whalers and
sealers.
| Then In 1874 the Islands of Kerguelen
We're given much publicity. As 1t will
he remembered. It was during that year
that Venus passed over the sun and by
so doing set the astronomic students to
look for the most favorable spot of the
earth where astronomic observations
could be made successfully. Unnni-
mously they decided that In Kerguelen
Islands they had such n place, France
sent her most distinguished students TO
Campbell and Saint Paul Islands, and
England sent the frigate Challenger 70
Kerguelen TO inquire as 10 the possihil-
tiles Of establishing "a post Of observa-
/ tions there.
! AZ result of this expedition England
sent two more warships Germany one
and a German and an American scien-
| tlfc mission proceeded thlther 20 OH
