Alvarez Not Disturbed,

Editor Advertiser: 1 will not waste
much space in your valuable paper to
refute the statements of DR.. Faria, be-
cause most of your readers have known
me for so many years that their opinion
of me could not be altered by his in
vective against me. His fears that I
may take away his practice, if he ever
gets any, are without foundation. can
assure him that I have all the practice
that I can attend to and do not wish
any of his. AS to his partnership,
could not seriously think of entering
into one with a man entirely unknown
to me; and, besides, he could not ex-
plain satisfactorily why he did not use
his own name in coming here, and why
he came without a recommendation for
some one here, when ne knew that it
would be necessary for him to prove
that he was man of good moral char
acter before he could obtain a license.
The Portuguese consul in Massachu-
setts would have given him a letter
for the Portuguese consul here without
much trouble. Instead of doing that,
he gave the Board Ct Health here my
name. without my knowledge or con-
sent, as vouching for his moral charac-
ter.
The statement published in the Ad-
yertiser of September 26th under the
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1902-09-30

heading "a Runaway Couple was
taken from the Independence and
has appeared also in other Portuguese
papers, among them, "a Liberdade'' of
Sacramento; 80 Luso." of Honolulu;
and "a Liberdade," of Honolulu.
Now. Mr.. Editor, as 1 do not wish
for notoriety, and have no time for
controversies that are not of public
interest, L will thank you for publishing
this with the assurance that this is my
first and will be my last communication
on this subject.

to be held by him, YVES presented yes

ance was taken to Saturday afternoon
to allow argument by Mr. Magoon. w.
S. Fleming and Thos. Fitch appeared
for the Brasch heirs and argued that
Magoon had no legal title as guardian
but had simply "butted in" and taken
charge of the property. The court is
asked to appoint anyone besides Ma

neys want him to act as guardian any
longer.

Press your hand hard
enough over your mouth and
you can smother a cough but
you can't cure it that way
The outside is the wrong end
to work on.
SCOTS Emulsion thorough
ly cures coughs because it
strikes at the root of the
trouble. The throat and lungs
need a regular system of edu-
cation to cure an old cough.
The point Of value about
SCOTS Emulsion and coughs
is that, while SCOTS Emulsion
does soothe the raw throat and
lungs, it also nourishes and
heals the inhamed areas.
1t replaces infamed tissue
with healthy tissue-the only
real cure for an old cough.

Tossed Coin for a Bride.

About two years ago Boston
beauty was beloved by two men, one
a lawyer, the other clergyman.
Both had asked her hand, but she
knew not to which one to give her
heart. Accident brought the two to-
gether at dinner party and the lady
frankly told her swains she could not
decide between them, and then. with
a laugh. she asked If either had a
silver quarter in his pocket. II SO
they might toss up and the winner she
would marry. No sooner said than
done and the coin rang down on ihe
table. Tho lawyer won and she mar
ried him. In twelve months he died
and recently the lady's friends re-
ceived cards announcing her marriage
to the minister.

The Idea of Cold.

with him from Europe recently. A

THE RAILROADS OF AUSTRALIA
There Seems to Be Something Wrong
With the system.

Not long ago the state railway au-
thorities in Melbourne. Australia, had
ID investigate case of guards leav-
ing his van, walking along the foot
plates. clambering up the engine. and
making a furious assault upon the
driver. the train going at full speed
all the while. They are now inquiring
into another curious Incident In this
case somebody forgot to fix the coup
liAss between the engine and the
train. When the signal was given the
engine steamed out of the station by
itself, leaving carriages and passen-
gers in the lurch. Guard. stationmas-
ter, porters and spectators yelled, but
without effect. The engine ran for six
miles before it was discovered that it
had nothing behind 1t. The most dis
quieting feature of the incident was
that 1t passed several signal boxes
without receiving any warning to
stop.

SERMONS TO THE puslraNs
Thought Themselves wronsed n the
Preaching Was Not Long.

Preaching Was Not Long.
At Lorimer hall. fremont temple,
Monday evening. at the monthly meet
ing of the Congregational club. Leon
II. Vincent spoke on Kings of the
Colonial Pulpit giving history OF
the Mather family and their habits
He said the Puritans were always
craving for learning and wisdom, and
that they had no sooner landed In
America than they began making
books. The continual studiousness
OF the Puritans, said Mr. Vincent, is
what makes New England to-day tho
great hive of books and authors. Be
sides studying the Puritans spent
their spare time in prosecuting here
tics and drinking strong drinks. but
the only habit OF the three that has
clung to their descendants is that Of
reading
The sermons were long-winded, and
In an hour the minister usually only
got started: An old record saws:
Mr.. Hooker preached two hours and
seventeen minutes while not feeling
well. How long he would have talk
ed II he was in good health, A Har-
ward student wrote OF a minister that
preached to the students: He
preached two hours. and much to our
regret, he had to stop" The people
paid to hear sermons on the tacit
condition that the preacher would
speak a certain length of time. The
audience would look at the sandgiass
to see that they got their moneys
worth
Mr.. Vincent said Cotton Mather
was probably the smartest boy in the
family. and at the age Of eighteen he
had received his degree from his
own father, Richard. President of Har-
ward. The subject of his thesis was
Hebrew. Vowel Points are Divine in
Origin People in those days did
not consider fasts as great hardships.
AT one fast certain men prayed
number OF hours, and then biscuits
were distributed and three different
kinds OF liquor were drunk Cotton
Mather went fishing one day and
fell into SHALLOW water. Mather was
very superstitious. and as soon as
he got out of the water he cried,
May God help me to know what is
the meaning of all thisi" He spent
three days in his room trying to make
his peace with God.-Boston Herald
