but I think we have obtained the most
valuable ipforma ton which the world
yet possesses regarding certain pro-
tuberances on different parts of the
suns surface. These were superbly
photographed in spite of occasional
f1lEny clouds.
The peasant population in this
nejehborhood thought the end of tie
world had come when the sun seemed
alnose totally hidden. 1t has been a
banner day for astronomers all over
the world. l am informed the Amer

now the wife of one of the professors
at the observatory, are pronounced Il

DESIGNS FOR
A COVER
Diamond Head Vas in
Half of the
Sketches.

The Hawaii Promotion Committees
prize competition for cover design for
the new folder which it is proposed to
issue soon, closed at o'clock on Mon
day evening.
There were close to a score of de-
signs which embraced a very wide
range of subjects and showed re-
markable degree of versatility on the
part of the contestants.
One of the most interesting points
developed in the competition is that
the contestants almost without excep-
ton have leaned toward the floral
decorative idea. Diamond Head ap-
pears in almost one-half of the sketch
es. There were submitted designs call
ing for but one color, others running
up as high as four colors.
1t is believed that another competi-
tion of the same nature would bring
out twice as many candidates. Sew
eral had called almost at the last hour
with regrets that they had overlook
their designs ready to submit.
The discussion of award will be TAX
en- up by the committee at it's meeting
on Thursday afternoon.

AVOIDING RHEUMATISM

According to the Medical Record, the
way TO get rid of uric acid, the accu-
mutation of which in the body causes
rheumatism, is to maintain the aka
Unity of the blood. One cause of di-
unfinished alkalinity is high nutrition
excessive eating-but not much is to
be gained. by excessive reduction of
the amount of food taken. A happy
mean is to be maintained. as regards
the quantity of food consumed, between
too much and too little People who
underfeed themselves usually have a
subnormal temperature, defective cir
culation, and deficient blood color. and
are very susceptible to bacterial infec-
tons Warm clothing and avoidance of
needless exposure to cold are required
OF one who wishes to prevent the ac-
emulation of uric acid. A nice balance
OF mental and physical labor is also
prescribed. The injunction to abstain
from fruit when out of season-from
October to April-is a hard saying.
Eating freely of potatoes, especially in
cold weather. is recommended by Alex
ander Haig, whose opinion has weight.
only in very warm wea Their, he says
may fruit be taken safely to any large
extent Some emphasis is laid on Sc
curing proper distribution of time
between bodily and mental exertion
Above, all, says DR.. Haig. one must
dispense with dependence on tonics,
stimulants and bracing climates. The
result will be better balance of mind
and body. and a more healthy. natural
and useful existence than has been
generally experienced either by our
selves or by our ancestors in the pre-
vious century. ''-BaItimore sun

COOKING
ON A Gas RANGE

Many of Honolulu's housewives and
ance at the initial cookery demonstra-
ton at the Hawaiian Hotel yesterday
morning, conducted by Miss Suzanne
Tracey, a graduate of the New York
years standing in the art of conduct
ing such functions. The demonstration
was held in the main dining hall,
which was filed with ladies, who were
equally intent in watching Miss Tracey
and jotting down notes of what she
said and did.
And every Tuesday morning at 10
o'clock housewives may have the pleas
ure of attending demonstrations there.
Miss Tracey arrived in Honolulu on
the Mongolia and will conduct the Sc
ries under the auspices of the Homo
lulu Gas Company, the object being to
teach local people the art of cooking
on gas ranges. The company had a
stage built in one end of the hall and
on this two Reliable gas ranges Were
placed, supplied with gas which had
been piped in during the week from
Beretania street A table between the
two ranges served Miss Tracey for a
desk from which she gave her instruc-
tons.
Miss Tracey is an adept in evolving
the daintiest of cakes and pastries fl ON
mixings of ingredients the thorough
knowledge of which she demonstrated.
Her explanations continued during the
course of cooking, the two ranges be-
ing kept alight the whole time. She
was aided in all her demonstra lions by
an assistant. The strictest attention
was paid Miss Tracey, which was quite
a compliment to her ability to impart
knowledge of a kind which Honolulu
husbands, etc, hope will prove of the
greatest benefit to themselves.
The gas ranges proved admira BILE for
Miss Tracey's purposes, the idea
throughout being to show how useful
is gas for cooking purposes.
The series is open to all Honolulu
housewives. and next Tuesday morning
at 10 o'clock it is proposed to serve
a luncheon. Miss Tracey will remain
here about three months, leaving then
for San Jose. California.

What's the Use?

We stew and fret and toll and sweat
And try to win a name;
We strive for years with many tears
TO win a little fame;
And by and by we up and die,
And all is just the same.
SO what's the use?
We grow old in search Of gold
And slave our lives away;
We sell our souls for greenback rolls
And barter love for pray;
And by and by we up and die,
And then we turn to clay.
So what's the use?
For love we cry, for love we sigh,
TO love we fondly cling;
For eyes that shine We peak and pine
And vince at Cupid's sting;
And by and by we up and die,
And everything takes wing.
SO what's the use?
we join the race for social place
And hope at last TO shine,
And spend our cash Co cut a dash;
And when we get line,
Why, by and by we up up and die
We're planted meath the vine
40 what's the use?
Just do your best, and leave the rest
To late or what you will;
Go play your parts and break your
hearts
And drink OF life your fill,
For bv and by you'll up and die.
And all your hopes be nil.
SO what's the use.
