The principal and almost constant
diet, however, is the seeds of weeds.
These are eaten at all seasons of
the year. They constitute o4 per
cent of the annual food slsplX and
show very little variat during
any month. Some of II Us eat
en- were SO minute it wQifl seem
tnat none but the smallest peeles of
birds would eat them, and then only
when driven to do so by lack of 9TH
er food"
Itemizing the contents of the
stomachs of three particular doves,
an agent of the Audubon Society,
Mr.. butcher, shows that they pre-
vented the possibility of the growth
of $4,000 noxious weeds. Here in
Hawaii they feed largely upon Ian
tana seeds.
Says Mr.. butcher in conclusion:
1T is question for the farmers to
settle whether they will permit any
one to kill on their land birds that
annually destroy tons of the seeds
of pigeon grass, ragweed, smart
weed, bindweed, and many other
noxious plants, and are thus worth
so much as helpers on farms. The
matter resolves itself into a question
of figures, i. e., dollars and cents to
the farmers. If three doves at one
meal destroy 23,1oo weed seeds, and
thus prevent the growth of the same
humber of prospective weeds, how
much good will all the doves on
farm or in State, or in the country
at large accomplish? Or, to present
the case in another way, how much
will it cost in time, labor, and actual
cash, to destroy what the doves will
eat if they are protected and encour-
aged to remain on the farms. The
farmers in the United States spent
in 1890 the enormous sum of $685.
3o5,o2I for labor; how much of this
was paid for killing weeds, and how
much of it could have been saved if
no doves had been killed, but all had
been protected and permitted to per-
form the work that the Creator de-
signed them to do ?'-( Feathers !

Accordingly he asks an appropri-
alton of $1Io,264 for the White
House for the coming year, instead
of $4,000, which was the appropri
alton for the present year. 1t might
be said that as the costs of keeping
the house in repair have trebled, the
cost of keeping the president in re-
lair may be considered as having at
least doubled.
Look at what Hawaii enjoys of
the facilities of agriculture: rich,
deep volcanic soil, as fertile as that
of Italy; great areas of public land;
an ample rainfall; frostless eli
mate; abundant labor; free entrance
to the mainland market and con-
siderable domestic market. To say
that such land cannot produce the
special products of the tropics, can
not afford livelihood to the cult
vator, large or small, is not only an
act of disloyalty, but it affronts the
facts of common observation.

w. w. DIMOND.
THE CHEERFUL GIVER"

While still young man death
has removed w. w. Dimond from
our midst. The ways of life and of
death are inscrutable. The young
are stricken, the old remain. The
progressive pass to the far beyond
and tire I'M rogressive stay. We do
not know Ahy this should be, we
often complain bitterly, but an all
seeing and an all-powerful Provi
dence decreed, and we have to bow
to the decree.
w. w. Dimond was one of the
progressive young men of Honolu-
lu He belonged to the part of the
community which helps forward the
State. Circumstances had given
him wealth, and he elected to use
that wealth in progressive and Use
full investment. He was no drone
in the human hive, but worked at
his business early and late.
Among his fellows there were
few more popular men. He was ge-
NAL and good-hearted, and fond of
sport. AT Waikiki he used to be
one of the most eager in the aquatic
sports and many and many young
man will remember his merriment
as he threw himself heart and soul
into the amusement of the hour. AS
a host Mr. Dimond will be remem-
bered for his geniality and whole
lleartedness. In fact, in no position
in life, which the late young mer-
chant occupied, was there one in
which he did not win friends and
supporters.
The Territory can i'll spare such
young men. OF them spring the
guiding and conservative elements
of the future. That the old in years
and in experience should pass away
and go to their long rest we freely
recognize, but that the young men,
full of ambition and of hope, and
upon whom the rising generation
will have to lean, should be called
gives sharp shock, and reminds us
torcibly that in the midst of life we
are in death.
The late w. w. Dimond was a
representative of both American and
British families. General Dimond,
his father, was one of the prominent
and leading men in San Francisco.
His mother, daughter of the late
John Thomas Waterhouse, endowed
him with the strong mercantile spir-
it which made that sturdy English
man so successful business man.

are of the little winking sort she must
study how to control the nerves OF
the lids so that she need not wink SO
desperately nor so often. She must
strengthen her eyes by lotions and
she must get them so that they wink
only in a normal manner. This is a
hard task for the winking girl to learn
and sometimes it requires the services
of an oculist before she can acquire
the habit of winking just often enough
to protect the eyes, but not often
enough to be unsightly.
"a great many people wink too oft
en-. They get into the habit of doing
so and they cannot break themselves
of it. 1t is like twitching of the eyes
and it gets to be distressing. That 1t
IS disfiguring there is little doubt, ii
you have ever watched person who
winks too much.

earn how to lower them effectively
She should learn how to flash them
Just little, and she should learn how
TO look out of what some one calls
the tail of the eye.

Look a Person in the Face.


THE art of looking a person in the
face hes in looking at the entire face,
all in one kindly sweep. Do not look
right into persons eyes, for this is
uncomfortable. There is nothing quite
so disagreeable as having "a person
look you right in the eyes. 1t is dis
concerning, even to those who have
good nerves, and to those who are
weak in the nerves it is positively
trying.
Never try to look into the pupils of
a persons eyes; never attempt to look
at the eye itself; never lean forward
and look a person full in the face; new
er open your eyes widely in stare
when talking to a person.
These are some little tricks of the
eyes that are possessed by many per-
sons, yet which are far from fascinat-
ing. Have you not known people who,
in conversation, had habit Of lifting
the eyebrows and lowering them, and
who did it frequently. At first it was
almost uncanny to see those eyebrows
rising and falling, while the eyes grew
large and small alternately.
THE person who sits and stares at
you when you are talking or during
pauses in the conversation is the one
who does not know how to use the
eyes we'll Few people have eyes of
the same size, and when they sit and
stare at you they display the defects
wildly. Have you not seen strained
too wide awake look in a woman's face
while she leaned forward and with
bated breath listened and stared. And
have you not noticed how, all the time,
one eye was wider open than the 9TH
er, and how the defect was brought
cruelty to light by this staring oper-
alton?

THE WAY A GIRL LOOKS AT A
MAN.

Marion Martineau in Chicago Tribune.
=" 1t Is the way girl looks at
mani" said an observant woman who
makes a specially of studying woman
kind and their ways, as applied to the
subjugation. of man
II don't care how pretty a girl may
be, how deep her eye sockets may
have been built, how large around her
eyes are, how dark their pupils, nor
how intense their light, they will
amount to nothing and do no havoc
at all unless she knows how to use
them.
THE girl who lifts pair of deep,
beautiful eyes to a mans face and
looks him full in the eyes a minute
ere she drops them, is the girl who
understands a thing or two about
these matters
Her uplifted eyes ask him a Ques-
ton or they express an Interrogation
ever so mildly without asking. The
girl who has deep beautiful eyes and
who knows how to lift them does not
have to ask questions; her eyes will
do their own Querying.
THE girl who has large, round blue
eyes and who understands the use tc
which to which large blue eyes can
be put is the girl who knows how tC
look at a man as he should be looked
at. She has the art of staring at him
without appearing to stare at him.
She will look him full in the face-not
in the eyes, mark you-but full in the
face, and she will keep ner eyes Oil
him until they have done their work.
If she be girl who can indulge in the
baby stare with propriety sne will
slightly part her lips and the rims OF
her teeth will show while she srares
at him.
Looking a person full in the face
is fine art. If done well it is the
most effective weapon known to wo-
man. 1t is good for heart conquest
every time. But if done badly there is
an awkward moment during which
neither knows what to say or how to
begin. Then the woman removes her
stare and the conversation goes on.

Abuses of the Ewes.

Then there is the person who has
handsome eyes, but who frowns. An
other is the girl with good eyes who
squints. Still another is the girl with
good eyes who has habit of making
grimances with them.
Lifting one eyebrow, drawing down
one eye, closing one lid, winking.
screwing up one eye, until it is half
closed, all these are little habits that
are bad; for once contracted they can
not be broken, and the result is a per-
manent Disagreement of the eyes.
Expression is the thing which ev-
cry woman should learn, and more
than that she should learn now to
conceal as well as how to show. You
can hide great deal with your eyes
just as you can tell a great deal with
your eyes.
Here are few things which the
girl with small eyes must learn. She
must realize that all cannot have pref
ty eyes and that the girl whose eyes
are not pretty has beauty lesson be
fore her in the shape of the correct
management OF her eyes.
"The girl whose eyes are small must
learn to use them effectively. II they

imagination than to put aside, if only
for an hour, the comfortless facts of
the prosaic present, to live even so
briefly amid the sunlit scenes and sin
less pleasures of the childhood past.
Verdant indeed are the distant hills
which memory pictures to the remin-
iscent mind; sweet and refreshing the
translucent waters of the dancing
brooks in which were bathed the IN
polluted lips of innocence and mirth;
from which were reflected those
buoyant, yet tender emotions which
find expression on the face of youth.
Unhappy the soul that has out
lived the influence of early feeling, or
that lives only in the scentless garden
of what is Indifferent to the fragrant
blossoms of what has been; impover-
! ished the spirit into which there does
not steal occasionally those little
CLEANS of joy which sparkle like drops
of crystal in the sunshine, shedding
lustre chaste and sweet as the soft
gleamings of an angels eye; exhaling
incense culled in other days before
the best emotions of the soul we're
frozen by the processes of time, or
parched and blasted by some sudden
stroke.
Some there may be who deem it
wasted time to dwell in silent rapture
among the treasured flowers of the
distant recollection; some who feel an
impulse to rebuke the lusty shout, or
spontaneous laughter of the ardent
monarch of the play ground or the
wood, but more lovable far the tenn
permanent that grows young again
where children are, and salutes from
the deepest recesses of the heart.
Blessings on thee, little man,
Barefoot boy with cheek of tan.
From my heart give thee joy,

Infinitely happier the bosom in
which there fingers even now a chord
responsive to the laughter and the
shouts:
"Oh for boyhood's painless play,
Sleep that wakes in laughing day,
Health that mocks the doctors rules,
knowledge never learned of schools"
Somewhere l read of q man whose
idea of heaven was childhood renewed
and preserved in us by God, through
all eternity, and often l have thought
that this were heaven indeed:
To feel again a mothers yearning
love,
To hear a fathers voice in kindness
greet.
TO clasp sister gone so long before,
In brief to feel taat I was home once

Advocates of Convention Plan

Chairman Lowe Has Appointed Sub Committee Which Will Make Its Report to Meeting in

The Democratic nominee for president of the Railroad Commission and the sev- for the Supreme Court bench will be se-

 politics and who keep In touch with sen timent in the State Democratic EXecu- tive Committee
 A South Alabama member of the conn mttee who asked that his name he not | used. said yesterday that the advocates of convention had practically given
 up the fight. The demand of the voters for d primary since the adjournment of the State Executive Committee has been
 unmistakabie. The people want a pri- mary.
 As an additional reason for the belief that a primary will be held, Chairman R. J. Lowe, of tho State Executive Commit tee has appointed the subcommittee of five to report to the State committee q plan for naming candidates, and ma
 jority of the members of the sub-com-
 mittee are said, on the highest authority, to favor a primary. It is confidently pre-

 July or early in August.
 It was learned from a South Alabama
 member of the committee that the sub
 committee uf five created at the last

 pointed Saturday by Chairman Lowe. The
 subcommittee. consists of H. s. D. Mall lory of Dallas. T. M Stevens of Mobile, NY pulloclx nf Era uIxlin Iohn proct0r
 of Jackson and R. E. Thach of Jefferson.
 The names of the members of the sub
 committee have not been announced by Chairman Lowe,. as he has not received | from them acceptance of service on the committee. It Is possible that some! of them may be unable to serve. .. . Messrs Proctor, Mallory and Bullock are said to favor primary and Mir Stew dns stands for a convention The views
 of MT. Thach are not known. Well informed men predict that the re-
 port of the subcommittee will be for
 straight primary. In the event the con
 vention plan IS. proposed by the sub
 committee. 1t is said the. State commit
 tee would turn down the report. and de- clare for primary. But the convention plan will not be reported. It is said that the convention advocates have in fact made their last stand. They
 are ready, 1t Is said. to conctde pri-
 mary. The public demand for primary has been irresistible.
 The State committee adjourned to mee:
 between Jan. l and b to hear the report of the subcommittee. The date of the | primary will be fixed in the latter part of July or the first part of August. The de- lay necessitated by the late registration. Under the election law registration will
