In a clinic at one of the medical col
leges the operating physician showed

way to cure instantly q cough or an
attack Of hiccoughing.
A patient was wheeled in who hap
pened to be coughing violently. The
physician said to him:
"Push your tongue out as far as you
can, and press It hard against your
lower lip and chin"
The patient did as he was told. and
his cough ceased.
This little trick, gentlemen" the
physician said. rarely fails. 1t is

Long Lawsuits.

Frequently several years are required
to settle lawsuit, MS every one knows

spect We have improved upon the
methods of our own ancestors.
In 1910 the Count Of Nevere insti-
tuted law proceedings against the town
Of Nonzy. and they did not come to an
end until 1S4S. Again, the townspeo-
pie of Campan and Bagneres de Big

q decision was not rendered in the case
until 1882.
Another remarkable suit Is that
which began in 1854. the contesting

times. It is actually still In the courts,

There Is more Catarrh In this section OF the
country than all other diseases put together,
and until the Inst few years was supposed to
be incurable. For great many years doctors
pronounced It q local disease and prescribed
local remedies, and by constantly falling to
cure with local treatment, pronounced II in
curnble. Science has proven Catarrh to be
constitutional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney 4 Co..
Toledo. O., is the only constitutional cure on
the market. II Is taken internally in doses
from 10 drops to q teaspoonful. It acts direct

n. Lannelongue has just communicated
10 the Paris Academy of Sciences long
history Of appendicitis. He shows that it
in by no means q new disease. The medi-
cal records of the last century in France
contain many instances. Egypt in the
time Of the Pharaohs was not exempt, for
he shows that the mummy Of n young
woman of the eleventh dynasty (some
500 years ago) exhibits every indication
that the death was due to peritonitis

The One Lesson.

This is. after all, the first and last lesson
for the Christian workers. Be clean, pure
of heart and simple in motive. See to il
that there is no friction between your will
and Christ's. Be adjusted in gear, well set
and jointed. Subdue your own activities
az much us your own natural lethsrgy:
Stand still till God impels you. Wait till
He works in yoa to will and to do OF His
pleasure. Exercise faith that God should
accomplish in you the greater results pos.
sible to the capacity Of your nature. Let
there be no thought of what you can do
for God. but all thought of what God can
do through you. Nothing will make you
50 intense and ceaseless in your activity as
this. There will be an end of cowardice
and Of pride. OF cowardice, because you
will find yourself borne along by an ire.
sistible impulse. OF pride. because you
will have no occasion to boast. As soon
might Millions pen have been proud Of
writing the Paradise Lost as you Of
what Christ may have done through you.
Shall the axe boast itself against him that
heweth Herewith? or shall the saw mag.
nifty itself against him that shaketh it?-

The three big gigs were manned by
stalwart, muscled Hawaiians, who
swung up to the judges stand with
easy strokes. After drawing for posi-
lions Prince Cupid's crew in the Kanoe-
lani took the outer course, Harris crew
in the Alexander r. second place, with
Atkinson's crack crew in the Kapiolani
nearest the judges stand. After Jug
Cling to obtain a clear lineup, Starter
Ward gave the signal. With one swash
the eighteen oars struck the water at
once, but the Kapiolani forged ahead
on the second dip. When the light
house was reached Cupid's boat was in
the lead, the Alexander r. falling back
to third place. The boats did not
change their positions from that time
on. On the return trip the Kanoelani
was far in the lead at the light house,
the harbor resounding with the cheers
of multitude on the wharves. The boat
shot past the judges stand with the
men as fresh as when they started, the
other boats trailing far behind. Time,

cheer went up. Both looked in fine
forms. The tug Eleu with Capt. Clark
aboard, accompanied the boats. At 1928

~ OANo1~OLO GeieDfdted the sew
enth annual Regatta Day last
= . Saturday with the same gener-
Gus display of enthusiasm as in
past years, All forenoon and afternoon
thousands of people strained their eyes
across the ripping waters of the har-

merous craft which participated in the
long program of events, and departed
townwards late in the day, sunburned,
tired and hungry, yet satisfied with
the splendid exhibition of water sports

graduated upon the successful manner
in which the events were reeled off
and the thoroughly sportsmanlike
manner in which everyone assisted to
make the annual event one that the
public will rejoice to see repeated the
coming year.
The oniinous clouds which scurried
over the sky on Friday afternoon and
evening, threatening all sorts of dire
things for Regatta Day, were chased
away at early dawn by Old Sol, who
had determined to take a conspicuous
part in the fun. He was present all
day, and made himself known and felt

on the wTaryes or on the decks of the
numerous flag bedecked vessels which
fringed the harbor. Even when every
body else retired at noon to satisfy the
wants of the inner man, Sol persisted
in keeping his blazing eye on the har-
Dor and warming up for the last half
of the program. 1t was hot, but the
thousands of people who took adyan-
tage of every place along the harbor
ficnt from which glimpse of the rae
ing course could be obtained, stayed
the day out.
The harbor presented pretty sight.
On the Waikiki side the Blue and the
Red of the rival boat clubs were .fiaunt-
ed conspicuously. The Myrtle boat
house was a moving mass of crimson,
f1agstaffs, halyards, lanais and sides
displaying the clubs coIors. The He
alani quarters were profusely decorat-

The breeze, such at it was, began to
die out about 10 o'clock and all felt
that the big yachts would sail in hard
