ever, in one Of these feminine estab-

but humorously. a lady was choosing

every model in the shop, she pounced
with glee on one she had overlooked.

To keep poultry successfully requires

From my experience which Is that OF

water before them all the time, will
make hens pay. AS most farmers are
situated II is not possible to feed much

GEORGE WHITFIELD'S
PULPIT.

The frame Is about six feet high,
feet from the ground. The wood IS
said to be black walnut. but age and
successive coats Of paint. sat.A and
varnish have done much 10 hide its
identity.
The most striking feature of the pull
pit is the number OF haSpS. hooks and
hinges which bind its frame. Those
who have charge of the relic are quick
10 call attention 10 this fact and TO
offer the explanation that the pulpit
is OF the folding variety. II was con-
structed in that way so that II could
easily be carried in a wagon or even

Corn Cob Ashes For Pigs.

Rake up all the corn cobs which ac
cumulate in the hog pens and burn
them. To the ashes thus obtained
add a small quantity of salt and
little charcoal. made in the following
manner: Place n few sticks of good
solid wood in the fire and when thor.
oughly charred, remove and dip in cold
water. Take out Immediately and.
when dry, make into small pieces.
Keep a pile of this mixture in each pig
pen and the hogs will eat the desired
quantity. The theory is that an aka
line substance Of some sort is required
to neutralize the acidity common TO
Indigestion. Hogs rarely fail TO make
use of the salt and ash pile If given
an opportunity.

Laundry Hints.

Wash day Is the bette nolr Of many
n household. There Is really no reason
why 1t should he. The results OF the
day make everyone sweeter, neater
and cleaner. Here are few sugges-
tlons that will make the day easier
and happier.
Fine clothes need no rubbing They
should first be wrung out OF cold water
and then boiled fifteen minutes In
water in which plenty OF soap has
been dissolved. Two rlnsings should
make them pure and white.
Clothes look better from which the
water is dripping when hung upon the
line than those which have been
tightly wrung.
When clothes are very soiled the
spots should be rubbed with a fibre
bristle brush.
An excellent washing fluid Is made
by adding TO the water In the boiler
one tablespoonful of spirits Of turpen-
tine and one tablespoonful Of am
monia.
In washing curtains put them In the
tub and wet them with coal oil Then
pour hot suds upon them. They
should be drawn many. times through
the fingers TO strip them of dirt and
then rinsed twice.
Ginghams soaked In salt water will
not fade.
SILK handkerchiefs should be washed
alone in luke-warm water and rinsed
three times in cold water. Then blue
them and iron them before they are
dry.
Dainty dollies, tray cloths and CEN
tre-pieces should be washed with cas-
tile soap. Always iron them on the
wrong side.

CHINESE IN POLITICS

Few people on election day realized
how nearly the Chinese voters in Ho-
nolulu held the balance of power
With $50 votes to cast, the Chinese
were an element who could, if they had
been converted by the Home Rulers,
have elected several of their men.
Although the Chinese voters were urg-
ed to vote the Home Rule ticket, it is
believed that ninety-fve per cent sup
ported the Republican party at the
polls.
VIM. Kwai Fong of the Bank of Ha
wall, who is one of the progressive
young Americanized Chinese in Homo
lulu, says that in the next election the
Chinese voters will be a factor il poll
tics which will have to be counted on
in the estimates, for by that time there
will be in the neighborhood of 400 to
$50 registered voters.
During the coming year between $50
and 800 young Chinese, who were born
in Honolulu at a time which Qualities
them to participate in the full priyi-
leges OF American citizenship, will be
ready to register. They are all intel
ligent young men with modern ideas,
and received their education in the
public schools, Punahou, Mills Semi
nary and Iolani College.
1t is the purpose of these young men
in the meantime to fully prepare them
selves to enter into the political arena
by studying the subject.
