II you will but listen to your friends

the pains and aches of bad back, the
annoyances Of urinary troubles, the
nervousness, the restlessness which
come from kidney Ills can be relieved
and cured. Read what one Honolulu
citizen says:
Writing under date of January 10th,
1899 Jurgen Walter of this city tells
US as follows: MY age is 79--weE

am the parent of eight children. Be

but after taking some of the pills (pro-
cured at HOLSTERS drug store) was

pills did me much good
Our kidneys filter our blood. They
work night and Gay. When healthy
they remove about 500 grains OF inn
pure matter daily, when unhealthy
some part of this impure matter is left
in the blood. This brings on many
diseases and symptoms-pain in the
back, headache, nervousness, hot, dry
skin, rheumatism, govt, gravel, dis
order, eyesight and hearing, dizzi-

had offered to construct a machine 70
do the same Work-that is, to make
blocks of the same kind as those
shown to the Superintendent of Pub
lie Works. The Honolulu Iron Works
had even set up the machinery to
make the apparatus to be used in the
construction of these blocks. 1t was a
contract to make blocks with this ma
chine that Beardslee had offered to the
Americana Hawaiian people during
Pinkham's absence on Maui.
But when I was appointed on the
Board of Health I dropped the whole
matter" said Mr.. Pinkham to the Gov
ernor. IT have had nothing to do with
the matter since them
! And at this point the matter rests
with the refusal of the contractors to
submit their case to arbitration. 1t is
up to the territorial authorities to
make the next move.
THE GOVERNOR SUMS UP.
1T is a regrettable thing all around, :"
said Governor Carter, speaking of the
matter yesterday. II have failed to
find any evidence of fraud in the con-
tract, despite the charges made by the
contractors. In fact, 1 had understood
that they would not press the fraud
chan ge-but, as they do show dis
position to cling to it. must repeat
that I can find no evidence of any
wrong doing. If, under all the cir
cumstanees, 1 were to accept the pro
position of the American waiian
Company to cancel the contract, and
release them from their obligation un
der it, 1 would be showing them too
much favor. 1t would be unfair to the
other contractors. So far as I can see,
nothing remains but to refer the mat
ter back to Mr.. Holloway to insist up
on the performance of the contract, Or
refer the case to the Attorney General
for action against the contracting eon-
pany under their bond.
las nearly as 1 can size up the case
from its presentation to me the con-
tracing company has been too suspi-
cious. too prone to believe that there
exists q spirit in the Department OF
Public Works to be unfair to them.
They have so worked themselves up
that they can see but one side of the
case-and cannot admit that there can
be another side.

assistance could be had the house was
doomed.
After great delay q tele phone mes
sage was sent to the city and the de-

When the trucks arrived the house
was almost cons umed. at best little if

dered in saving the structure.
The house was beyond the city linn
ite, the nearest plug being 400 or 500
yards distant.
Only three trunks were saved, all

tarh-J. C Dodson Guarantees
Cure

Two or three years ago when physician
had patient who was troubled with catarrh,
the prescription would be, according to his
means, either to seek a change of climate, or
to take a tonic or blood purder, Today, the
advanced physician will tell his catarrhal
patient to breathe Hyomei.
This novel treatment for catarrh consists
OF hard rubber inhaler of size convenient
to be carried in the vest pocket or purse,
amedictne dropper and a bottle of Hyomei
BY its use it is possible to breathe while at
home or at work, air which is almost iden-
teal with that of the mountains or health
resorts where the air Is laden with healing
and health giving balsams.
No other medicine gives such prompt re-
lief as Hyomei in the treatment of catarrh.
The first breath soothes and heals the irrt-
tated and smarting air passages, and It's
regular use for few days or weeks will cure
the most stu oborn cases.
j. G, Dodson will sell Hyomei outfit with
his personal guarantee to refund the money
it 1t does not cure, You run no risk what
ever in buying Hyomei, for your word de
cides the question as to whether you pay for
the TT edy or not
The complete Hyomei outfit costs SLIGO and
comprises an inhaler, a bolt e of Hyomei
and dropp-r. The inhaler will last life
time, and additional bottles of Hyomei can
be obtained for soc
