Value Of a store Mirror

'T don't believe that we could get
along without that mirror at the back
of the shop" said the druggist to a
customer who questioned the wisdom
of expending so much money upon one
big piece of plate glass. Still, it did
not save us from losing another lot of
plasters the other day, now that the
plaster. thieves are out of Jail.
You never heard of the plaster
thieves? WE'LL / wish we hadn't, No,
it is not that people are in special need
of being plastered up, but plasters are
easy things to take. You can get a
good deal of value in one big, fiat box
of plasters. There is no Individual
mark on them to prevent their being
sold again, and they are lighter and
easier to carry than bottles. Plaster
stealing has become a regular business.
A couple of young fellows who have
made US their victims several times
were sent up to serve a term for the
offense. We know they are out again
now, for they paid US visit only the
other day and took off few boxes in
the same old way. You wouldn't think
we could be caught half a dozen times,
mirror or no mirror, but we have been.
Il was taken in the first time. Two
young fellows came in and gave me
small order that took me away for
few minutes, and while I turned my
back they put several boxes of pIas-
tiers under their coats and walked out
with them, and I didn't know it for
some time. 1 remembered them, how
ever, and the next time CHANGED to
come in just as some one else had TAX
en- a small order. but that time I was
in time to keep them from taking any
thing. 1t wasn't long before they were
in again, however, and that time they
We're caught. 1t was the mirror that
did it, for the man who waited on them
was one who did not know them. But
he saw suspicious movement, pounced
upon them, made them put down half
a dozen boxes, and told them if they
ever dared to show their faces again in
the place he would throw them out
They have been in Jail since but now
they are out, and we have suffered once
more. What do you think of that for
persistence and cheek? They have a
regular fence for these things
But it is not the regular thieves that
we have to be most careful to guard
against, though it was one who took
one of the first things 1 missed after
l had been in the business. There was

To Be Depended On
Because It Is the Experience

A stranger lost in a large city would

doubt the sayings Of people living at

gate. but public expression of local
citizens can be depended upon, for it's
an easy matter to prove it. Evidence
like the following is beyond dispute:-

FARMERS LITTLE FOE.

Is is a melancholy tale of a promis-
ing venture in small farming come to
grief from minute enemy as a unit.
but in it's tribal strength conquering
army that leaves a track of desolation
behind it, the account the Advertisers
staff correspondent with the Governors
party gives of the visitation of the cut
worm to the fertile district of Waimea.
The California colony OF farmers at
Wahiawa on this island had full knowi-
edge of the danger from the cut-worm,
but they also knew of methods for cir
cumventing the pest These had rela-
ton to selection of what to plant, and
in what manner and time. It is pre-
surned that these California farmers
put such methods into execution, for
there has been no cry of anguish on
that account from wahiawa, much less
any sounding of retreat.
- With regard to subsoil pests, an IN
teresting discovery is reported in
literary periodical of late date. The
article is not at hand at this writing,
but the substance of the story is as !
follows: An electrician engaged in !
some work placed an ingot under |
ground in his garden to cool the metal. |
There was an electric connection with |
the ingot and, the first thing the cleo
trician knew. all sorts of bugs and
craw1ers began to come up from about
the roots of plants. This gave the man
an idea He planted several electrodes
at equal distances in the garden and,
connecting them with a battery, poured |
in strong current of electricity. The
result was both comicaI and instruc-
tive. From all over the surface, for
considerable radius about each cleo
trode, there emerged myriads of crea-
lures gliding and creeping away from
the plants upon whose vital juices they
had been fattening. 1t was complete
radiance of pests for the time being.
There is hardly anything that cannot
be done with electricity these times,
judging from the variety of applica-
tons in different sciences to which {
practice as well as theory is putting
the subtle agent, but there is nothing
for which more people would rise up
and call it the greatest modern gift TO s
man than it's proving an economical S
and effective destroyer of the enemies
Of useful vegetation.

The Hawaiian Legislature helps those
who properly, as well as otherwise, help
themselves. It is marvellous that Hilo,
with so much value in combustib1e
property as it has had for many years,
should net long ago have provided itself
with efficient fire-f1ghting apparatus.
Even the Chinese merchants of Homo
lulu splendidly equipped an engine
company of their own in the former
volunteer fire department. And the
Legislature cheerfully built it house
the finest in town before the new CEN
trail fire station was erected. There is
little doubt that IIiIo would have been
speedily reimbursed by almost any
Legislature that ever sat here for any
similar expenditure it made for its pro-
lection. The Hilo papers are complaint
ing of the breach of a promise
of the Territorial authorities to send
chemical engine to their town.
Tt is probably only delay from the same
circumstances. arising out of the Coun-
ty Act muddle, that have been holding
up many public undertakings.
