At the end of the day he concluded
that the marriage was all off-at least
for the present-and resigned himself
to his fate.

It was suggested to young Bright
that he might charter tug and go
out beyond the three-nile limit of the

Then the Tax Collectors office was
tackled, and in response to his request

From q School Girl.
Honolulu, H. T., January 8,

Honolulu, H. T., January 8, 1904.
Editor Advertiser: 1 was surprised
| to find High School, in his letter in
your issue of Thursday, attempt to ex-
plain away the reason for a pupil hav-
ing to sit up until eleven at night to
finish his home lessons for the next
day. High School must be ignorant of
what / know to be quite common with
us children. My home lessons are
Latin, Algebra, English and History,
and however Industrious I may oe in
preparing them, they take me from
three to four hours every day but Fri
day. If you add one hour for music
you will see I have never less than
four hours home lessons day and if
1 were unable to avail myself Of the
help of my father, who knows both
Latin and Algebra we'll, my difficult
subjects, I should not be able to do the
work set me in that time.
Speaking for myself I can say with
all sincerity that school work is play
compared with home lessons which
find very hard work. In this house
there are others who have home les
sons and though none of us is idle, it
is rare indeed that we get to bed be-
fore ten. A neighbor who has just
called to see US, who attends the High
School, was asked how many hours a
day she has to work at home lessons
and her answer is from three to four
hours. 1T never seems to strike our
that there are some useful
ti.icgs to be learnt at home for which
very scant time is allowed, 4 such as
sewing, fancy work, cooking and house |
work, and are we to have no time to /
take walk, to read your excellent pa
per or good book, or for social life? |
It is sad to think that school life has
also to be strenuous. Are we at no I
period OF our lives TO know what calm
and quiet are, what contemplation
means? Father subscribes for periodi-
,als, that on Fridays and Sundays we

WHAT IS A CouGH2

A spasmodic effort to expel the mucus
from the bronchial tubes. A cold causes
a more abundant secretion of mucus,
and when the lungs and bronchial tubes
are infiamed, they are extremely sensf-
tive to the irritation. Unless care ia
taken, the cold may result in pneu-
monia, which is swift and deadly. II
the cold is a lingering one, the more
ieisurely but equally fatal consumption
may set in. Do not neglect a cold or

are over-worked. Most of the children
| look well and strong. Here where
we have so much out-of-door life, we
have the most perfect conditions for
the rearing of children. They can
wear light, comfortable clothing, al
lowing perfect freedom of motion and
they can be out-of-doors all the year
around
There are more crying evils about
our school system than the course of
study. One is the poor janitor work
done in some OF our schools. There
are schools in this city reeking with
filth where the floors are only washed
once in three months. This, too, in a
tropical climate where many of the
children go barefoot There are Old
unsanitary, ill-smeIliEg closets in place
of sanitary, well-ventilated patent clos
cts. There are poorly lighted and over
crowded school rooms. There are
double desks (relics of medievalsm in
school work.. These double desks are
an outrage in this warm climate
among mixed races, and where skin
diseases are so readily transmitted.
The double desks are excellent in pro-
noting communication between pupils
at all times and greatly aid in prompt
ing and cheating. They are a menace
to individual work.
Instead of so much complaint
against the teachers from parents who
complacently sit at home, it would be
well for some of the parents to go
about the schools and see how much
many of the teachers are doing for
the schools, often working under diff
culties in hot, poorly ventilated rooms.
crowded with from fifty to sixty little
folk 1t is no wonder that they some-
times send the little ones home to get
what help they can from their parents.
