1t stands to reason that there is
not in all the world a more suitable
spot for the profitable cultivation. of
tobacco aud cotton than the Ha-
waiian Islands, barring one thing,
e.. The cost OF land. Both OF
these important staples grow wild
Throughout the group. There are
few flower yards OF any size that
have not, away over in some corner,
stalks of finely developed tobacco
aud most of them have cotton.
Numerous experiments in both have
proved successful, and the possibili-
ties OF either as profitable crop
are established. What is wanted in
the Islands is the assistance OF
experts in planting and maturing.

In the last year 1,62O persons have
been instructed in first aid to the in
iured in the class formed by the So
ciety organized for that purpose. The
society's annual report gives an in
stance illustrative of the value of it's
work, showing that at least one life
was saved that would otherwise have
been lost. A driver had leg terribly
crushed by heavy stone falling on
it. A policeman who had been a mem
Der of one of the society's classes
quickly cut the leather throng from
his club and twisted it around the
mans limb, using the club itself as a
tourniquet. In this way the man was
kept alive until the ambulance ar
rived. But for the policeman's
prompt and intelligent action the
man would have died on the spot.

At present there seems more than
chance that the historic town of Bath
whose ancient glories were supposed
to have departed forever-may yet be
the scene of as gallant if not as dra-
matte doings as it was in the time de-
scribed in Monsieur Beaucaire." a
determined attempt is being made at
Bath to win back for the town its an
cient fame as a place where smart folk
could find. besides waters. containing
valuable medical properties" such
round of gayety as would attract the
most blase. An official master of GER
emonies" has been appointed in the
person of Maj. Simpson, noted So
ciety man of Bath, and at Easter time
he got up such series of fancy dress
balls, hops, gala performances at the
Bath theater and concerts as has been
held in no English city'in many day.

sent Scott Marbles and Richard

cess, and 1T is pro missed thai the cos
tuning will be feature. The com
pany is large one, among the most
prominent of its members being Harry
Carter, Henry Lea, Grace Hazard and
Olive Thornton.
1t would have been difficult TO have
selected better opening bill than
"Said Pasha." Inc opera Is very
pretty one, oriental in coloring and
abounding in graceful and pretty mel
odies. The quintette Life Seems only

particularly beautiful composition, and
