 I do not.

THE MARRIAGE QUESTION.

The professor who announced that rlove and romance de out with the sound of the wedding bells" was the first to start the ball rolling. It would seem brave woman who marTies with this echo in her ears, yet we have not heard that there were fewer marriages during the year. There are un- happy married lives, but large percentage of these unhappy homes are due to the ill- ness of the wife, mother or daughter.
 During long period of practice, Doctor Pierce found that prescription made up entirely of roots and herbs, without the use of alcohol, cured ninety-eight per cent. of such cases. After using this remedy for many years in his private practice he put 1t up in form that can be had at any store where medicines are handled.
 Backed up by over third of century of remarkable and uniform cures, a record such as no other remedy for the diseases and weaknesses peculiar to women ever attained, the propTietors and makers of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription now feel fully warranted In offering to pay $5oo in legal money of the United States, for any case of Leucorrhea, Female Weakness, Pro lapsus, or Falling of Womb which they can not cure. All they ask Is fair and reason able trial of their means of cure.
 Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription cures headache, backache, nervousness, sleep lessness and other consequences of wom- an1y disease. "Favorite Prescription ' makes weak women strong and sick wom- en well. Accept no substitute for the medicine which works wonders for weak women-

BUSINESS
IS BRACED
The Steamers In Port
Make Trade
Lively.

Business in Honolulu for the first ten
days of March has been better than for
months. The arrival and departure of
through steamers and transports is
held responsible for the better times,
for merchants all over the city report
that times are good, just at present
Not only has there been a large num-
ber/ of big steamers in port during the
month, but they have all been pretty
we'll loaded down with passengers. Ho-
nolulu has entertained three or four
thousand strangers within the past ten
days. The war is held responsible in
measure for the increase of traffic,
although the transports come and go
without regard to the war in the ORR
ent.
The Siberia which was in port for
over twenty four hours dumped several
hundred people into the city for a
whole day, while the China which was
here at the same time had almost as
many. The transport Thomas was
loaded down with soldiers and together
with the Sheridan was responsible for
a temporary increase in population of
several thousand. The Sonoma and
Sierra We're also both well loaded. and
the Sierra left nearly a hundred WISH
tors here, who will remain for some
time. The Solace also adds her quota
to the list. There has also been a
pretty lively trade with the sailing
fleet.
+ Altogether both merchants and hotel
men are very well satisfied with the
results of the business of the first ten
days of March, and if trade keeps up
as it has been, say that there will be
no further talk of hard times in Ho-
nolulu.

The backs Of the book are gone

The book is formed from a number Of
copies of the Literary Magazine and

and is full Of miscellaneous matter.
Some of the articles now appear
amusing to read in the light of our
present progress. In the book we find
a list of all banks in the United States

state of New York lines up with the
magnificent number of six. What a

works Of David Humphreys, Esq,
