FOR THE INDECENT SICK.


Honolulu, Hawaii, May II, 1904.
To the Public:
The last Leg. lature having failed 10
provide funds for the maintenance OF
the Government Dispensary or provide
medicines or supplies therefor. and
also having failed to provide for
Government Physician for the District
of Honolulu, the undersigned physi-
clans have mutually agreed to render
their services free of charge for the
care of the INDECENT sick and helpless
through the Dispensary until July 1st,
1905, or until the Legislature meets and
AID otherwise provides.
The necessity of this step is disclosed
by the fact of there having been S66
treatments at the Dispensary and So
outside visits i'm the month of April.
There will be an increase of calls upon
the Dspensary. To meet expenses
1925 per month will be required.
We believe the object will appeal to
the charitable and the funds be vulun-
tarily forthcoming.
Contributions may be handed to the
undersigned physicians, or forwarded
to the President of the Board OF
Health.

Holman DAVIS New Book.

That the reading public relishes
taste of freshness and the spontaneous
and unconventional is shown by the fact
that over fifteen thousand copies of
Holman Days volumes of poems, Up an
Maine and Pine Tree Ballads have been
sold.
Mr.. Days new book, entitled Hin o.
Etaadn, just published by Small, May
nard & Company, is still more vivid and
piquant portrayal of New England rural
character and outdoor picturesqueness.
In its conception and execution, its
mingling of prose and verse stories, this
new volume is absolutely unique. and
seems sure to become one of the "Old
Home" books to be sent broadcast over
the country and treasured as real con-
tributiOn 10 literature.
The book is divided into six sections,
five of these sections portraying each a
distinct phase of homely New England
life. 1t is neither book of short sto-
ries nor merely volume of poetry. In
each section a generous number of the
authors latest and best poems are
woven into a harmonious unity by a
thread of prose narrative, description or
chat, so that the interest of the reader is
continuously held; and the lights and
shadows of the life of simple country
people are shown in such artistic con-
trasts in these pages that the heart is
touched by the tender sentiment of one
verse or paragraph even while the laugh
still fingers from page of rollicking
humor.
The title of the volume is explained
by a quatrain on the title-page which
refers to "the giant mount which typi-
fies the sturdy strength of Maine, "
Ktaadn being the ancient and Indian
spelling of Katahdin, the king of mount
aims and practically the centre of the
state.
The book bears striking cover de-
sign, showing distant view of Mt.
Katahdin, misty blue against an evening
sky, and framed by tall spruce-trees in
the foreground. A fine portrait of the
author appears as frontispiece,5 and each
of the six sections has vignette title,
with an appropriate picture and pre-
liminary verse framed in distinctive
decorative border. The drawings and
cover design are by Miss Amy Rand.
The immediate success of the volume
is evidenced by the fact that the first
edition consists of 1000 copies. The
publishers are of the opinion that this
is the largest first edition of any book of
verse by an American poet.

Entlre Wheat Flour.
BULLETIN OF THE MAINE AaRIcUL'
TURAL EXPERIMENT STATION.

The modern methods of -four manu-
facture have given US flour yielding
light white loaf, pleasing to the eye and
acceptable to the average palate. In the
milling process generally employed, the
germ and the coatings of the wheat
kernels are almost entirely excluded,
the offals being used as food for stock.
1t has long been known that these coarse
by.products are more highly nitrog-
enous than the fours reserved for the
use of man. A knowledge of this fact
suggested a return to the primitive
methods of milling, which consisted in
grinding the entire kernel. The product
thus obtained is known as graham hour
and meets with steady though some
what limited demand.
A study of graham flour and its ef-
fects soon showed that it does not pos.
sess the food value which chemical
analysis seemed to indicate for it. In
brief, graham bread, for the average
consumer, is less completely digested
than bread from fine white patent flour
There is in the market a flour which
is intermediate between the two kinds
named, which, according to the manu-
facturers, is prepared by removing the
onter and woody covering of the kerr
mel and grinding the remainder, which
should thus contain the germ and the
highly heterogeneous inner coating. An
examination of several samples of these
flours shows that the claims of the
manufacturers are not substantiated'
While it is true that the entire wheat
fiours contain more of the wheat COW
erings that the patent flour and less
than the graham, there seems to be lit
tie or no difference between that por-
ton of the coverings excluded and that
retained in the -four.
Chemical analysis shows that entire
wheat flour would be more valuable as
food than white -four from the same
wheat, provided they were equally di,
gestible. Experiments made here and
elsewhere show that white flour bread is
more digestible than that from either
graham or wheat. The higher cost OF
entire wheat flour does not seem to be
justified. 1t must be remembered, how
ever, that -four of all kinds is most
economical food, and that entire wheat
flour, even at five cents pound, is still
low cost food.

If the spirit of tidiness has sometimes

If the spirit of tidiness has sometimes
grown into demon in the New England
household it has never been allowed to
dominate the roadside, says the New
Bedford Standard, and then goes on to
draw few differences that will not 60
amiss with our Maine readers. Some
times, to be sure, untidinesS has gone to
the far extreme, but that has usually
been because man has spoiled the road
side by dumping into it heaps of un-
slightly rubbish. Why the farmer should
take the road in front of his house as the
place of deposit for the old tin cans, the
broken crockery, the wornout shoes, and
the rest of the household and farm
debris, instead of putting the collection
into hole in a back lot is to be account
ed for only on the superstition that he
has saved trouble thereby. But in such
cases the observant wayfarer will note
that nature, given half chance, will
hide the unsightly pile with tangle of
vegetation. We do not think that ma
ture should have the responsibility, but
that in places like this, man should see
to establishing the beauty of trimness
and neatness. Still, there are miles of
country road, byways through forests,
and even generally travelled highways
apart from the villages, where for the
sake of beauty it would be real pity to
take trimness as the standard. In those
places where the enthusiasm for so-called
neat roadsides has been unduly fostered
the first result has been a gaunt deform-
ity. The space between roadway and
field has been turned into barren waste
of stumps and stalks and stubble, look
ing more like bungled shave than like
the face of nature. 1t has often been a
real joy to see in the spring time that
the enthusiasm for neatness in these
spots has waned or has been forgotten,
and that the verdure is covering the
desolation made by hoe and Ratchet.
There is no need of deliberate untidiness
which man makes with malice afore-
thought-but there is actual crime in
destroying the beautiful abandon of
nature when she seeks to cover an I'M
used corner with shrub and vine.

Nerve and PoIiteness.


"The nerve of newspaper men fire.

as we'll as getting them into it, remark
ed Representative Livingstone of GeOr-
gia, while talking to group of friends
in the cloakroom. GAS a whole they are
generally a pretty clever lot and pre-
pared for any emergency, and l suppose
that they make about as few mistakes as
the average run of men. | shall never
forget an incident which happened sever
al years ago in Atlanta, and laugh now
every time l think Of it. A dashing
young woman came to the Atlanta and
engaged the SWEETEST suite of rooms at
the Kimball, and she spOrted diamonds
as large as walnuts and drove four-in-
hand. 1t was given out that the young
beauty was Miss SO-and-SO, the cattle
queen of the West, and that she had
money enough to burn up stock yard
of wet cows.
ED Bruff, of the Constitution, had
an idea that the woman was fake, and
he soon had the wires hot with messages
making inquiries about her, the result
being that he got corking good story
to the effect that the woman was the
rankest kind of humbug. Bruff printed
the story next morning and it caused a
genuine sensation, but the woman never
lost her grip, driving out that afternoon
with her four-in-hand. Late that night
Bruff was in the lobby of the Kimball
talking to Ed Galloway, the night clerk,
when the cattle queen swished down the
steps and, walking up to Bruff, asked if
he was responsible for the story in the
Constitution.
"I have that honor was his reply.
"'Then, sir, am going to kill you,'
almost yelled the woman as she drew
gun from the folds of her dress.
"This didn't alarm the little news
paper man in the least, but, lifting his
hat, he quietly remarked.

The Golf Girl Sees q Ball G

1t was her first appearance at a ball
game, and he sat beside her with resig-
nation written on his face. They both
belonged to the smart set, and when
people smiled at her innocent queries as
to how the game progressed he ground
his teeth and groaned inwardly, for it
was vulgar, peanut eating crowd about
them.
"Why does the man with the mask

asked.

"Dear me. He's fooled his put" she
exclaimed at the next play. "And look

referee. The impudent things! They
ought to be put off the links!'
"You don't understand the game,
Margaret" he explained. "You see,
the players bat the ball thrown by the
pitcher, and then they run the bases.
While they're on base they can't be put
out, and if they are caught between
bases they are out. Every man that
reaches home makes tally for his side.
Each side has nine innings. Balls
caught on the fly are out, every batter
has three strikes at the sphere, and fouls
don't count unless caught by the out
