YOU WILL NOT

be deceived. That there are cheats
and frauds in plenty everybody
knows; but it is seldom or never
that any large business house is
guilty Of them, no matter what
line Of trade it follows. There
can be no permanent success of
any kind based on dishonesty or
deception. There never was, and
never will be. The men who try
that are simply fools and soon
come to grief, as they deserve.
Now many persons are, neverthe-
less, afraid to buy certain adver-
tised articles lest they be hum
bugged and deluded; especially
are they slow to place confidence
in published statements of the
merits of medicines. The effee-
tive modern remedy known as
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
is as safe and genuine an article
to purchase as -four, silk or cot
ton goods from the mills of
manufacturers with a worldwide
reputation. We could not afford
to exaggerate its qualities or mis-
represent it in the least; and it
is not necessary. It is palatable
as honey and contains the nu-
tritive and curative properties of
Pure Cod Liver Oil, extracted
by US from fresh cod livers, COM
bined with the Compound Syrup
of Hypophosphites and the Ex-
tracts of Malt and Wild Cherry;
and how valuable such a blend
ing of these important medicinal
agents must be is plain to every
body. It is beyond price in In
somnia, Anemia, Weakness and
lack of Nervous Tone, Poor
Digestion, Lung Troubles and
Blood Impurities. Science can
furnish nothing better-perhaps
nothing so good. DR.. w. II.
Dakfe, of Canada, says: "I have
used it in my practice and take
pleasure in recommending it as
a valuable tonic and reconstruc-
tive" It is a remedy that can
afford to appeal to its record
and represents the science and
knowledge of bright and aggres-
siye medical investigation. a"One
bottle convinces. At chemists.

"sIsAL ROPE"


Dear Sir: Again referring to your
sample of sisal which we submitted to
the Tubbs Cordage Co. we beg to ad-
wise you that they report to us that
it is a very good sample-having a
good length and properly cleaned.
The price on both sisal and Manila
rope is governed by the New York
market. If you had in a large con-
signment of sisal last Saturday, it
would have brought you lie. per h.,
which causes US to think that this
ought to be a very good industry IL,
the islands.
AS to the quantity that the Tubbs
Cordage Co. could take, will say that
they can use it in any quantity-a
million pounds or more.
Yours very truly,

The HaIeakala Ranch has for the
past seven years maintained an ex-
detrimental patch of sisal plants on Ka-
| Iialinui Immediately adjoining Omao.
pic. 1t has not been weeded or Gull
| tivated nor has any care or protection
been given it since it was planted.
In September last the company
caused some of the leaves to be cut
hand cleaned and sent to San Fran
cisco for analysis by the Tubbs Cord
age factory.
They report the fibre to be good, and
offer IL cents a pound, or $3.50 ton
therefor. This is the highest price be-
ing paid for the best Yucatan sisal,
which is the worlds standard of ex-
cellence.
In order to test the lower and dryer
lands, the company planted nearly a
hundred sisal plants, last February,
on the land of Pulehunui, at a point
about a mile and a half above Kihei
pump station number g. and two or
three miles below and west from Omao-
pic, where it is considerably dryer than
on Omaopio.
The planting was done without SUI
pervision, by a cowboy who knew moth
ing about sisal, and the plants have
since had neither wedding. cultivation,
protection from stock, nor irrigation.
The season has been a dry one, but
with the exception of four or five OF
the plants, they are looking well and
most of them are growing vigorously.
l am authorized by the manager of
the Maui Agricultural Company, Mr..
H. A Baldwin, whose plantation adj
joins Omaopio, to say that he will
furnish employment to all homestead
ers who desire it when they can spare
time from their homesteads and will
otherwise do what he can to assist and
make successful the demonstrating of

To Be Depended On
Because 1t Is the Experience

Can Readily be In

A stranger lost in q large city would
place far more dependence on the d.
rections given him by local resident
than the guidance of another stranger
like himself. This is a natural conse-
quence of experience; It's like a ship
~ a strange port--a trusty pilot eani-
liar with the harbor is always called
upon to bring her safely to her moor
ings. So it is with endorsement; we
doubt the sayings of people living at a
distant point because we can't investi-
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:-
Mr.. W. T. Williams of this city, is a
lighthouse keeper, and he has held this
position for the last 80 years. He says:
II was for a number of years. one of
