with his opponents than formerly,
Commodore Macfarlane wants a crack
at the cup. AT the time of the Myrtle
controversy L. A. Thurston stated his
belief that the original intention of the
cup was to promote the growth of the
large yacht class, the Healani, owned
by King Kalakaua, being for long
time the only five ton yacht in Ha-
waiian waters.
LEGITIMATE RACERS WILLING.
Commodore Macfarlane in his official
capacity and from a personal stand
point, is popular with his fellow yachts
men while his efforts for local yacht
ing and the money he has spent on his
own craft are warmly appreciated.
Therefore the captains of the Mary
L., Helene, and Gladys are anxious to
see him allowed to enter, and have pre-
sented the following petition to the
trustees, proposing to race for the cup
on Regatta Day.
A CHANGE ASKED FOR.
ITO the Trustees of the Hawaiian
Challenge Cup, Honolulu, Hawaii
"Sirs:-It is desired by the under
signed, to effect a change in one of
the conditions governing the competi-
ton for and holding of the Hawaiian n
Perpetual Challenge Cup for which you
are the trustees, that being the stipu-
lation as to the dimensions of yachts
which may compete.
Although the measurements deter
mined upon include the yachts racing
in these waters at that time, they now
effectually exclude La Paloma' and it
| is the wish of the Hawaii Yacht Club
and the undersigned that said regu-
lations be amended to include La Pa
Iona it being necessary that she be
allowed to participate in order to make
satisfactory competition.
Commencing the matter to your
valued consideration, we are,

Mr.. Sproule who was present at the
original meeting in the Iolani club
house, backs up Mr. Wilson. He says
| The intention was to create a class
of boats from $40 tons. The Healan
being on the spot was admitted. She
is il tons. If the intention had beer
to allow boats larger than 10 tons tc
enter at any future time, the limit
would naturally have been stretched tc
ID or Is tons, but the Helene was adj
mitted as favor"
a meeting of the trustees will in all
probability be formally called when the
matter will be settled. Striking ar
average, La Paloma would have to al
low the Gladys some fourteen minutes
over the course. Gladys measures s

WAY THIS COW WAS slck.

Jacob Singer of near Middle
town, had a COW which was sick
for several days and did not eat.
She was examined for the vari.
Gus diseases known in the COW
kingdom, such as wolf, hollow
horn and poison, but soon found
she was free from any of the
symptoms which follow such dis.
eases. Then her pulse was eX-
amined and found to be all right.
Finally the mouth was opened
and there they soon found the
cause of the trouble. The entire
mouth was full of ulcers, and one
of the men called for a pair of
pinchers. They thought he in.
tended pulling the tongue out of
the COW mouth but instead Of
doing that he pulled out u darn
ing needle which was about six
inches long and which had pene-
trated entirely through th c
tongue, extending to the back
and lower part of the mouth
The crowd which stood by were
amazed and SAID, "No wonder the
COW was sick"
There was similar occurrence
some years ago, as reported by u
Mr.. Vance, who says that he once
bought a heller that had a lump
on the side of it's jaw and looked
very sick. He bought it for eight
dollars and took it home. Soon
after he examined the mouth and
found that a nail had been forced
into the jaw by the side of one
tooth, which caused all the trou-
BILE. Afterwards he sod the helf-
er for fifty dollars.

in London of his experience as a jur-

pressed me in that business was the
high-handed manner of the cross-ex-

though, dentist, whom no browbeat-
ing cross-examiner could disturb.
''This dentist was being questioned
about certain woman.

asked.
"No, sir" replied the dentist.

"'Didn't she return them?'
"'No, sir
"The lawyer glared. Then he re-
sumed:
"'But you admit, don't you, that
later on she had another set made by
another dentist?'
'Oh, yes, l admit that, said the
witness.
"'Ah! You admit that. And the la
dy is wearing that other set now,is is she
not?'
"'Yes, she is wearing it,.
"'And she has discarded your set?'

What? Do you mean to tell me
she is wearing both sets at the same
time?'
"'Yes, do

possibly be?'

KNOWING YOUR BIBLE.

The good old custom of "learning by
heart" has fallen out of use in our
families and Sunday school, and pas
sages of the Bible are no longer men,
orized by the rising generation. But
we should at least be able to find a
passage even if we cannot recite it.
Here is list of passages whose loca-
tions should be familiar to every
Christian.
The Lords Prayer-Matthew q.
The Commandments - Ex. 20.
The Beatltudes Matthew 5.
Paul's conversion-Acts 0.
Christ's great prayer-Jonn II.
The prodigal son-Luke Is.
The ten virgins Matthew %.
Parable of the talents-Matthew %.
Abiding chapter-John 10.
Resurrection chapter.-l Cor. 10.
Shepherds chapter-John TO-
Love chapter-1 Cor. 13.
Tongue chapter 3.
Armor chapter -Ephesians &.
Travellers psalm-Psalm 12l.
Bible study psalm 1l9
Greatest verse John 3 Is.
Great invitation-Rev. %, 7;Isa So, l
Rest verse-Matthew ii 2S.
Workers. verse; Tim. 2: 10.
Another workers verse-Psalm 1866
How to be saved-Acts Is: 81.
Should l confess Christ? Rom. 1913
Teachers's verse-Daniel II: 3.

MEXICAN ETIQUETTE.

Ladies do not attend funerals
Children kiss the hands of their pa
rents,
The hostess is served first at Mex
lean table.
The bridegroom purchases his BRIDES
trousseau.
Female friends kiss on both cheeks
when greeting or taking leave.
The sofa is the seat OF honor and a
guest waits to be invited to occupy
1t.
Men and women in the same social
circles call each other by their first
names.
When a Mexican speaks to you of
his home he refers to it as "your
house."
When you move into new locality
1t is your duty to make the first neigh
borhood calls.
When friends pass each other on the
street without stopping they say adj
os' (goodby.)
Cards are sent to friends upon the
anniversary of their saints day and
upon New Years day.
Even the younger children OF the
family are dressed In mourning upon
the death OF relative.
Dinner calls are not customary, but
upon rising from the table the guest
thanks his host for the entertain
ment.
Gentlemen tip their hats to each 9th
er or at least salute In passing, and
shake hands both at meeting and part
ing, though the interview may have
lasted only two minutes. Modern Me,
! leo.

AS TO THE HAIR.

The girl with the high forehead
should wear her hair down low
over her brow.
If she has low, smooth, white
brow, she should brush her halr
well off the forehead.
A madonna face may affect the
part IN the middle.
The girl with an intellectual
brow or a fair share of youthful
beauty can afford to draw her
hair back in loose waves, sans
pompadour or parts and on the
neck.
For elderly lady matrons the
pompadour Is dlgnitied and state
ly, and it seems to increase the
height of stout women.
The round, shapely head looks
well with a soft puff of hair at the
nape of the neck.
Every woman should study her
own style. If she looks best with
her hair low, then low she should
wear it, though every other wo-
man in the land is piling her hair
on the top Of her head.
A wise woman never curls or
frizzes or over-dresses her hair.

ELSiE'S SPELLING.

One day when little Elsie came home
from school her mother asked her
what she had learned that day. Elsie
replied;
81 learned to spell man."
"Teli me how you spell it dear, "said
mamma.
MAN, man." replied Elsie.
"And how do you spell boy?"
"You spell it the same way, only
with smaller letters" replied Elsie aft
er a moments thought.

SINCE WE GOT THE MORTGAGE
PAID.

We've done a lot of scrimpin' an liv-
in hand to mouth,
We've dreaded, too, wet weather, an
we've worried over drouth.
For the thing kept drawin' int'rest,
whether crops were good or bad,
An raisin' much or little, seemed it
swallowed all we had.
The women folks were savin' an there
amt bit of doubt
But the things they really needed lots
of times they done without,
So we're breathin' somewhat easy, an
we're feelin' less afraid
of Providence's workin's since we got
the mortgage paid.
I wish I'd kept record of the things
that mortgage ate,
In principal an in'trust, from Begin
ming down to date -
A hundred dozen chickens, likely fowls
with yellow legs,
A thousand pounds of butter, an
twelve hundred dozen eggs,
Some four or five good wheat crops
an, at least one crop of corn,
An oats and rye-it swallowed in it's
lifetime, sure's you're born.
Besides the work an worry ere its ap-
petite was stayed.
So we're feelin' more contented since
we got the mortgage paid.
We've reached the point, l reckon,
where we have got right to rest,
An loafin' aroun' an visit, wear our
go-to-meetin' best
Neglectin' nothin' urgent, understand,
about the place,
But simply slowin' down by bits an
restin' in the race
In time I'll get the windmill I've been
wantin', suppose;
The girls can have their organ, an
we'll all wear better clothes,
For we've always pulled together,
while we have saved an scrimped
and prayed,
An it seems there's more to work for
since we got the mortgage paid.
