The acquisition Of the Hawaiian ISL
ands by the United States has opened.
to pleasure and health seeking tourists
a delightful semi-tropical country of
virgin beauty and unrivalled attract
iveness-a new world to Americans
and Europeans, in which the resources
of modern civilization contribute ma
terially to an easy and pleasurable ex-
ploration. The climatic conditions
render this lovely mid-ocean group Of
islands a charming resort at all seasons
Of the year but especially during our
winter months 1t offers an incompara-
BILE retreat for the delicately consti-
tuted.
From Van YER, the western termi-

the fine steamships of the Royal Mail
Canadian Australian line, the Moana,
Aorangi and Miowera, sail for Ho-
nolulu, Hawaii, Suva, Fiji, Brisbane,
Queensland and Sydney.
A voyage to the South Seas! A sail
among the coral islands of the Pacific!
Three weeks of life in the tropics All
that these thoughts suggest, all that
tales of adventure and travel bring
back to our minds, all that is implied
in visit % the most charming spots
of earth-may now be realized under
circumstances of special comfort and
convenience, by passengers via the
Canadian Australian line of steamers
between Vancouver and Sydney
Eight days out from Vancouver finds
the steamer in sight of Honolulu, the
capital of Hawaii a spot which has
been fttingly designated 1.-THE Para
disc of the Tactic" Honolulu has a
reputation of ove.' 10000, or over one
fourth that of the Hawaiian group.
1t is a well-kept city, Astounding in
coZy villas and pretty gardens, and
it's delightful environments serve to
make a short stay one of the most
pleasant experiences of a travellers
lifetime. Honolulu has a good cleo
trio street car system, water works
and electric lights, etc.
Here one comes, for the first time,
in contact with the native life of the
Pacific, and whatever may be said
of the good characteristics of other
islanders, it may be safely assumed
that the Hawaiians are at once the
handsomest, brightest and happiest of
all the children of these coral homes.
They are a wonderfully interesting
people, with a wonderful history. If,
however, the tourist finds the people
interesting, he will be equally charmed
by the great beauty of their mid
ocean home. Nature has smiled upon
it. Here perpetual summer reigns,
and the frarrance of flowers never
passes out of the balmy breezes that
fan the hills and valleys of this love-
Hest of lands. These words may seem
moge poetical than truthful, but they
are written advisedly. The official
