MANGOSTEENS
FROM LAHAlNA

C1errit Wilder brought some mango
steen fruit from Lahaina the other day
which is exhibited in a Fort and King
street window. 1t came from Mrs. Hor-
ner's yard from tree planted by Mrs.
Turton over twenty years ago. This
is the only mangosteen tree in bearing
on these islands except the one on the
Gay estate, Kauai. Mr.. Wilder has
made an attempt to graft from the -ior-
ner tree by approach" He took seed
lings from tree of the same family,
the Kamani. and attached the two. He
hopes in this way TO get some mango
steens started on his fine place at Ma
l1iki and elsewhere in the city.

To the average man it seems childish
to doctor a cold, and unless it becomes
particularly annoying 10 him. little or
no attention is given it. OfteL a cold
contracted in the winter is allowed to
run until the opening of spring. This
IS a grave mistake, as even though
the warm weather may bring relief

1t is noted by Harper's Weekly and

much better OF in the East than he was
a few years ago. The Bryan of 1905.

which was denied him in the narrow

West, and most of the new light has

Tourists who are here should not miss

get, to see a volcano in action from a

spouting fire fountains, is as majestic

and as safe to observe. once seen at
its best. Kilauea is a thing to remember
for a lifetime. During the eighty years
or more in which the eruptions of the
great volcano have been closely observ-
ed by white people, no sightseer there
has lost his life. Unlike Mount Pelee,
Kilauea is mannerly volcano, not
subject to devastating explosions

Niagara Falls may be destroyed as
a spectacle by the use of its waters for

tunnels around it, discharging its

the supply is being diverted, the preci-
pice of Niagara may soon be as dry
as the Hudson river palisades.

KEEP YOUR SENTIMENT

Life without sentiment is as insipid as
a savory without salt Yet when people
marry they usually "settle down." which
means they endeavor to look at everything
from the common sense point of view, and
forswear all the delightful nonsense which
they INDUCED in when they were sweet
hearts, says the Indianapolis News.
Is 1t that rent, taxes, butcher, baker
and> candlestick- maker usurp the place
given to romance? Or is it that people
always grow sadder as they grow older?
Is it possible that the wife cares less
for love than the sweetheart used to do?
Not in her heart of heartsS believe. But,
once surrounded by it, she grows uncon-
scious of 1t and in1agines it no longer of
supreme Importance, even making the
hideous mistake of fancying it can be done
without. Familiarity breeds contempt,
and so she lightly praises love Of her own
undoing. -
Stick fast to the high ideals of counting
days; don't let yourself be persuaded
they are foolish or old fashioned: don't.
when love becomes daily certainty, fancy
sentiment can be dispensed with, or you
will wake up with a start one Of these
fine days and find to your cost that the
future which promised to be SO fair is
stretching blank and desolate before Won
and that your husband or your wife. as
the case may be, bears no resemblance to
the sweetheart Of years gone by.

SHOPPING BY THE POUND,

It has been the custom for some time
in grocery stores to sell certain fruits
and vegetables by the pound (the same
as staple articles) instead of by the
measure. The practice in some locali-
ties has spread to dry goods and a
Wholesale merchant, in discussing this
new method Of selling, said recently:
"A small dealer appreciates the fact
that a certain class of people want a
great bulk for their money and will run
the chances Of the quality if the bulki-
ness is all right. On certain specified
days these dealers advertise that they
will sell Bingham at a certain price per
pound; that they will sell cotton at so
much a pound, and certain kinds Of rib
bon and silks in the same way. Then
they pile up immense heaps Of these
goods on their counters, and bargain
day at the regular department stores is
nothing compared to the mad rush on
these pound days at these stores. AS a
matter Of fact, the dealer seldom loses
anything by this apparently extrava-
CANT measure, for goods often sell for
the price that they bring per pound any:
how. The customers come in droves
and the dealer reaches certain class
that would never come to him if he sold
his things by the yard. A pound Of
silk?' he asks Certainly and down
goes the bolt on the scales. Then he
I clips off two pounds of cotton or three
pounds Of lace in the same fashion till
! the customer is so fascinated with the
process that she fails to realize that she
is only getting her moneys value. -
