GROCERS' NOTICE.

In accordance with our desire to give
our customers the best possible service

will be allowed on any groceries sold
In our stores. All groceries VIII be
sold at net prices, on basis of spot
cash or thirty days settlement, and
there viii be no exception made to this
rule. Purchases made in our retail
departments up to the LIST of Novem-
Der will, of course, be subject to the
per cent discount as heretofore.
The discount question has frequently
been the cause of disputes and dissatis-
faction and we believe this arrange
ment will improve our relations with
our patrons, while it viii at the same
time enable us to more adequately meet
the keen competition prevailing in our
line of business, and to give our GUS
toners the benefit of the closest prices.

LITTLE: MONGOOSE
COULD FIGHT

One sultry afternoon gentleman who
was staying in India was lying in a
hammock swung on the veranda of his
bungalow. He was willing away the
time eating fruit and biscuits, when all
at once he saw little sharp-nosed,
bright eyed creature, all covered with
smooth fur and looking something like
squirrel, come creeping slyly along the
floor He threw it bit of banana,
which at first startled it, and it acted as
though it was going to run, but pretty
soon it seemed to think better of it, and
turned back and snapped up the morsel.
The gentleman grew interested and gave
it some biscuit crumbs, which it ate, by
degrees becoming more familiar and in
clined to make friends. Just then some
one approached and the creature ran
away.
Then the gentleman was taken very i'll
with fever, and one day when he was
Just beginning TO recover he sent his
servant away and composed himself to
take a nap. Just as he was about to
doze off into dreamland he saw horri-
bic sight. Describing it, he says:
Creeping into the room from the
veranda, coil after coil, was a huge
hooded cobra, the deadliest snake in all
India, more than seven feet long, and as
thick as a mans arm For a moment /
was fairly dumb with horror, and then,
although / knew it was no use, in
stinctiyely called for help; but my voice
was so weak that it couldn't even have
been heard in the next room.
"On came the snake, rearing up its
horrid spotted head angrily, and blowing
out its hood, as it does when it means
mischief. 1t had already got to the foot
of the bed, and was just preparing to
crawl up when | heard skirr of tiny
feet across the floor. and | saw my
squirrel-rat friend, little Tommy. The
brave little fellow never hesitated for
moment, but went right al the cobra like
a tiger, and gave it a bite that drew
blood like the cnt of knife"
The upshot of the matter was, Tom
my and the snake fought duel. and
upon its victory depended the life of the
sick man. Again and again the rat
squirrel attacked the reptile, biting and
biting, and always escaping the enerny's
blows, until at last the rat-squirrel &C
tualiy bit off the snakes head. But Just
as this happened. the snake in its flop
pings, knocked some glass off table
and the attendants in the house, hearing
the crash. come rushing in.

WEATHER SERVICE ON
The OTHER ISLANDS

Mr.. Ashley, the head of the Federal
Weather Bureau, returned yesterday
from Kauai where he has been making
arrangements for a more complete re-
porting of conditions.
He leaves next week for Mololzai,
where, in company with Mr.. Judd, he
will look into things. The only record
kept there now is at Kalaupapa.
From Molokai Mr.. Ashley intends go
ing to Maui, taking in the whole island
on the trip.
Mr.. Ashley has been handicapped be-
cause of not having enough instru-
ments. He has ordered forty more and
when they arrive all parts of the is
lands should be pretty well covered.
The most important measure that he
is introducing is the weekly crop re-
port. He plans to have reports from
every district in the islands sent in
weekly which besides showing what
the weather has been for the preceding
week, will also give detailed informa-
ton in regard to the progress and con-
dition of the crops. especially of sugar
cane.

THE RAPID TRANSIT

The annual meeting of the Union En-
deavor Society was held at Kaunaka-
pill church last evening. The program
was opened by a song service fol-
lowed by prayer by Rev. Mr.. Thwing,

ported an enrolment of 70. the number
present being 81. The next highest

which reported an enrolment of 10, the
number present being II.
Addresses were made by Rev. Messrs.
Thwing and Wadman, followed by sem
tence prayers by number of the MEM

nounced in concert. The crowd then
went to the street where car was in
waiting to take it to Kapiolani park
where an after-meeting was held and
short addresses We're given by Rev. P.
M Snodgras and John M. Martin. A
spiritual song service was rendered
both going out and coming back on the
cars, Prof. Tracy being in charge of
he music. This with an organ and
good organist gave the young people a
splendid trip and one long to be re-
membered. Much credit is due to Pres
ident J. A. Templeton for the mastery
way in which all the services were
conducted. JOHN M. MARTIN.
