OUR ISLAND or MANIA.


OUR ISLAND or MANUA.
l have a photograph recently taken of
the village OF Mama ON our Island Of
Manua. This is the island next largest
TO Tutuila We have altogether four or
FIVE islands out here they are Tutuila
Manua, Ofu and OIosega Manua con
tains about twenty square miles. il is
mountainous and surrounded by coral reefs.
The mountains arc about half a mile in
height. but the land rises so gradually that
The whole island can be cultivated. The
Manuans arc much the same as the Tu-
tuilans. They number altogether about
1000. hut they arc out OF the line of ocean
steamship travel and arc more interesting
than the Samoans OF the other islands
They have had missionaries for the last
seventy years and are Christians. They
have churches and schools and live peace
fully under their king They produce
enough food for themselves and seel copra
enough to buy what they want in other
ways. The American officers say that CO.
coanut and banana plantations are beng
put out on all our islands and that they
viii soon increase 10 production and
wealth. They have nothing but good to
say OF the people
THEY DRINK KANA.
1t is interesting to hear naval officers
tell their experiences ia these out-oi-thc-
way islands. They were received in great
state by the king of Manua. who treated
them TO kava before he discussed business
with them. lie had his chiefs with him.
and his wife the queen sat beside him
during the audience The kava was
brought I'm by the belle Of the island in a
cup fastened to a branch Of cocoanut palm.
IL was hrst given TO the king who handed
1t back to her, whcrcupon she filled it and
again gave 1t 10 his majesty He drank
some OF it, first pouring some on the
ground After this it was presented to
Commander 1illey and the other officers,
and they drank it although they knew very
well how it was made
CHEWED BY PRETTY GIRLS.
The preparation Of kava is much the
same as that OF chicha in Bolivia. Chicha
is beer made of corn. the grains OF which
are ohewed UP by Indian girls and cxpec-
torated into a pot in which they are left to
fcrmeut kaya comes from root grown
in the Pacific islands, and the kava roots
are chcwcd up by the pretty Samoan girls
aud made into a drink after the following
manner he kava is FIRST washed and
then cut into little cubes Then young
girl preferably a pretty girl after washing
her hands and rinsiug her mouth, begins
30 work. She puts one cube of kaya into
her mouth and chcws it vigorously. When
1t is wei mastcated she adds another and
another until she has within her lips and
cheeks q mass of masticated fiber as big as
am egg.

There is more Catarrh in this section of the
country than all other diseases pnt together,
and until the last few years was supposed to be
incurable. For a great many years doctors pro-
nounced 1t a local disease and prescribed local
remedies, and by constantly failing to cure with
local treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be constitu-
tional disease, and therefore requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure, manu-
featured by f. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure on the market. 1t
is taken internally in doses from 10 drops to a
teaSpoonful. 1t acts directly on the blood and
mucous surfaces If the system. They offer one
hundred dollars for any case it fails to cure.
Send for circulars and testimonials.
