all the Board of Health records. al
though the latter said this was not
sufficient. The committee was grant
ed further time.
Assessor Iaukea appeared before the
Board and stated that he would have
been ready to submit his bond but for
the fact that DIR. McGrew. one Of the
sureties. was in Pearl City and had
not returned.
Judge whiting then appeared and
spoke on the Assessors bond, saying
that 1t had been drawn up in con-
formity with the County Act. except
ing that instead of two bondsmen.

q number who had qualified in the total
amount of 100000. The sureties were
then given.

Whiting answered in the Affirmative.
It has been the practice Of the courts
to accept bonds In similar form in
estate matters. where In large bonds.
suieties could not qualify for the en-
tire amount.
Attorney Rawlins disputed the state
Iment. He had been required by Judge
Estee to give three separate sureties
for $4,000 each. each man being re-
lquired to swear that he had that much
property in the Territory. Judge
Whiting replied that Judge Estee could
not have fully considered the matter

Sugar of milk, which is made from
whey, in itself has no medicinal quail
ties. Aside from its uses as a food
for the young. it is known to the med
ical profession principally as a vehicle.
Homeopathic physicians naturally use
it more than the allopaths, but both
allOpaths and homeOpaths nowadays
are giving medicine in tablet form to
a great extent, and the tablets are in
most cases made palatable by sugar of
milk.
Sugar of milk also forms the bulk of
triturations, more commonly known to
patients as powders. Only a small per
cent of the average powder is medi-
cine. By means of mixing sugar of
milk the taking of moderate doses of
powerful drugs is made possible. In
the glObule or pill form this is also
true.

The instinct of mankind against sat
ire is really very sound instinct.
Satire is always dishonest, for it is al
ways the expression of hatred for a
thing hopelessly coveted. Who satirizes
humanity? None but he who, not hav-
ing the common human advantages, is
obsessed with admiration of them.
Who satirizes plutocracy? The pauper,
who is warmed by the notion of
wealth. Who satirizes aristocracy

Clever DISCUSSES That Save Them

Clever DISCUSSES That Save Them
From Their Enemies.
A we'll known naturalist tells us Of
an insect in Nicaragua so completely
disguised as leaf that a whole host
of the ants who prey upon it actually
ran across it without recognizing it as
their food. Mr.. Sclater noted in South
America another insect, one of the
membracid9, which not only mimicked
the leaf cutting ant for its own protec-
ton, but, like its model, carried in its
jaws a fragment of leaf about the size
of dime.
Even more wonderful is the disguise
of the mantis of Java, which turns
itself into so exact a semblance of an
orchis flower that the insects upon
which it feeds visit it in hope of a
feast, but remain to furnish one.
The heliconidp butterflies, which are
avoided by all insect eating creatures,
are exactly initiated by another class,
which are so good to eat that If they
did not assume a protective disguise
they would be extirpated, and they do
so to such perfection that even expert
naturalists sometimes cannot distin-
guish them. Another authority men,

into so good a copy of a wasp that he
was afraid to touch it with his fingers.

the human heart to girls who can read
it. When a young man buys a pound
of candy, any old thing handy, without
looking twice at it, his affections are

JAPANESE POETRY.
II Is Confined to Lyrical illusions of
the Utmost Brevity.

the Utmost BFeVity.
Japanese poetry is absolutely confined
n lyrical effusiOns of the utmost brew
ity. The Japanese poem is generally
limited to three, four or five lines and
seldom exceeds few dozen. One would
look in vain for a poem of the length
of Bryants '"Thanatopsis." Japanese
literature has never invaded the epic
field and knows no metrical form which
even remotely resembles an ode, a bal
lad or Il long poetic narrative like 1.-THE
Ancient Mariner" Also minor metrical
arrangements like the rondel, triolet,
willamette, etc, arc. absent. OF what,
then, does Japanese poetry consist? If
one discusses its apparent lack Of scope
and resources with a japanese, he is
sure to point to the "Manyoshiu Kogi'
Collection of Myriad Leaves. True
enough. its bulkiness is most alarming,
as it extends to 122 volumes. But it
proves to be only an anthology of short
poems, each complete, bearing no rela-
ton to other stanZas, except in the
choice of subject, the work being di-
vided into poems of spring, summer,
autumn, winter, poems of parting,
love, sorrow, etc. Collections of this
kind, admirably printed and supplied
with numerous indexes and elaborate
commentaries, are published at inter
walls under the auspices of the govern.
ment. They represent the classical
poetry of Japan.-The Reader.
