Crying for Help
Lots of it in Honolulu But
Daily Growing
Less.

Backache is one of the first indica-
tions of kidney trouble.
1t is the kidneys first cry for help
Heed it.
Doan's Bachache Kidney Pills are
what is wanted.
Are just what overworked kidneys
need.
They strengthen and invigorate the
kidney; help them to do their work;
never fail to cure any case of kidney
disease.
Reed the proof from a Honolulu citi-
zen.
Mr.. Charles Comey. of Cyclomere
street, this city, one of the many per-
sons who have tried Doan's Backache
Kidney Pills with great advantage, re-
lates his experience thus: II have been
a hack driver for a number of years
past and this is All occupation in
which, through exposure to weather
and much jumping up and down from
the vehicle, one is particularly liable to
kidney complaint. I suffered myself
from lame back for long while, and
in my anxiety to get rid of it tried
several things which did not reach the
root Of my trouble. An advertisement
acquainted me with what grand work
Doan's Backache Kidney Pills were
doing, and 1 got some of them at the
Hollister Drug Co.'S store. I used them
and with very much profit, for they re-
lieved my back wonderfully
Doan's Backache Kidney Pills are
for sale by all dealers or sent by mail
on receipt of price, so cents per box,
by the Hollister Drug Co., Honolulu,
wholesale agents for the Hawaiian
Islands.
Remember the name Doans and take
no other.

AFFAIRS OF THE
FIRST NATIONAL

Editor Advertiser: In reply to the
ing that this bank is trying to avoid
paying it's legitimate taxes in conse-
quence of our payment of the bond
money 1 beg to state the following
facts which 1 trust you will publish:
ID That our tax return January
1st, 1904, will show our usual reserve
in cash, as you will be able to ascer-
tain by comparison with our previous
returns.
(2) That the payment was made by
US at a sacrifice of actual profits, as
we could have kept the money in San
Francisco or New York at two per
cent interest until the sailing of the
Alameda from, San Francisco Jan.
9Th, 1904
90 That no banker would under
take to collect money for the govern
ment at a cost of quarter of one
per cent and then pay the government
a tax of one per cent for doing it.
(D That knowing there was strong
objection in certain high official quar-
ters to this bank being given any of
this business, we decided to be pre-
pared to pay over the money on re-
ceipt of telegraphic information that
the draft had been paid
go That our action in paying over
the money to the treasurer has stop
ped the discount of loan warrants is
sued by the Territorial Auditor to
contractors and others and puts the
money into immediate circulation and,
we think, hardly calls for unfavorable
comment.
We ourselves feel little pride in
the manner in which we have handled
this business whether it is appreciated
by the Government and warrant hold
ers or not.
Respectfully,
W. G. COOPER,
Cashier, First National Bank.

The efxpenses Must
Now Be Paid
by County.
Appropriations Are TAX.
en- From Territorial
Laws.
Circuit judges Consult Over Best
Methods Of Meeting the
Situation.

There may be another tie-up in the
courts of the Territory unless the va
| rious boards of supervisors are able 10
raise funds when the County Act goes
into effect next year. Although the
courts were always supposed to be
Territorial, and almost federal depart
| ments, by reason of the appointment
of the judges by the President of the
United States, the appropriations for
this branch Of the government have
been placed with the county after the
first of the year.
Judge Robinson and Judge Gear have
already discussed the question of pro-
viding for the courts after the Ter
ritorial appropriations cease, and a
regular conference will be held between
the three circuit judges this week. 1t
is the opinion of the two judges who
have already talked over the question,
that the supervisors should be con-
suited at once in regard to the matter,
and be asked to make provision for
carrying on the courts. Otherwise, in
Judge Robinson's opinion, the warrants
for the first nine months, for the ex-
penses of the judiciary will have to be
registered.
The judiciary is in reality the only
department of the government, strictly
Territorial, which was placed by the
legislature under the control of the
counties. AT the time the appropria-
tions We're cut out of the eighteen
months bill there was a big fight
against it in the Senate, but finally all
the items We're left for the counties to
provide. This will only take in the Cir
cult Courts as the Supreme Court is
provided for in the eighteen months
bill.
The Circuit Courts will have to run
on credit for the first few months of
the year as was done once before, when
the extravagances of the judges had
exhausted the appropriation before the
close of the fiscal year. While the Su
preme Court is provided for by the leg
islature none of the other courts is.
There is a small appropriation for ex-
penses, and the salaries of one clerk.

The Circuit Court juries will be COM
PEELED to work for months without their
money, unless the supervisors are able
to provide for their payment. The
clerks, bailiffs, stenographers and otner
officers of the various Territorial courts
will also have to be content to work
without pay until the county raises the
have the right to fix the pay of the en-
ployes of the courts and some of them
are getting very anxious to learn
whether salaries are to remain the

Tunnel Under the Seine.

work to cost some $6,000,000 will
probably in the near future be begun
on the Seine. It will be tunnel under
the river, either at Tancarville or
Quillebeuf. Between Rouen and the
sea, there is no crossing of the Seine
except by boat, a condition that for
many years has caused great incon-
venience and retarded commercial
growth. Moreover, Havre is connect
ed with the rest of France by only one
railroad line. The projected tunnel
will connect 1t with the Pont-Audemer
and hence with the rest of France,
giving two diverging lines from Havre

American OIL In Germany.

In the 1902 report of the Chemical
Examination Bureau Of Breslau II II
stated that Roumanian petroleum.
which had at one time been looked
upon as a promising factor In the Ger
man markets, has almost disappeared,
as we'll as the Galiclan product. The
Galician wells, 1t is said are no longer
as productive as formerly. This leaves
the field open to the efforts Of the
American and the Russian companies.
1t Is stated to be In the interest OF
Germany to see that there is no coali-
ton between these two, which can be
prevented only by increasing the de
mand for the Russian product. The
German buyer, however, is said to
look upon the Russian oil with disfa-
vor. The German authorities have for
years been increasing their orders to
the Russian company, asserting that
this oil Is cheaper and of better quail
ity than the American; but private
consumers care nothing about the orr
gin of the oil they use, and the mer.
chants In general continue in their re-
fusal to purchase Russlal petroleum,
Nevertheless, the report shows that
this oil has on considerable ground

FEEDING Birds,

The secret of feeding birds in cap

riety Of wholesome food as you can.
For seed. they should have a mixture
OF canary rape, fax, or linseed, small
croats and little hemp and millet. In
cold weather, more hemp and some
nav seed, and little lettuce seed oc-
casionally, particularly If there is
any diarrhoea about. For green stuff,
lettuce, watercress, groundsel, chick
weed and nearly any sort of fruit, but
1t should not be given to them wet.
Once or twice week. for a treat, a
mixture of hard-boiled egg, chopped
small, and powdered biscuit will be
greatly appreciated. In feeding them
don't make things too easy. Remem-
ber that birds dearly love occupation
Of any kind. knew lady once who

A Fable of the Two Rats.

A rat seeking a place in which to
live chose palace, saying he pre-
ferred high life, while his companion
chose a hut, saying he was content
with less says writer in St. Nicholas.
But the palace was found to be a poor
place for rat. The walls and floors
were so well built that no holes could
be made in them. and the pantry was
so well kent that nothing was left ex-
posed to marauders. Moreover, there
were so many pet cats and dogs that
a rat had no liberty. AS result the
rat got nothing to eat, and finally
starved to death-all from trying to
live in too much style"
The other rat found the hut Just what
he wanted. There were plenty of holes,
the provisions were poorly protected,
the barn was near by. The cottage
rat, accordingly, lived in plenty ana
enjoyed what was really high life for
q rat. For" he said, "a palace has
fewer opportunities for a rat than
hovel, and they who aspire should con-
slider what the advantages for them
are in the places which they seek"
