CHILDREN AFFECTED. By Mothers Food and Drink

Many babies have been launched into life with constitutions weakened by disease taken in with their mothers s milk. Mothers cannot be too careful as to the food they use while nursing their babes. The experience of Kan sas City mother is case in point:
 "I was a great coffee drinker rom child. and thought I could not eat q meal without 1t. But found at last 1t was doing me harm. For years had been troubled with dizziness. spots before my eyes and pain in my heart. to which was added. two years ago, a chronic sour stomach. The baby was horn T months ago, and almost from the beginning, 1t. too. suffered from sour stomach She was taking 1t from mel
 'In my distress I consulted friend of more experience than mine, and she told me to quit coffee. that coffee did not make good milk. I have since as- certained that 1t really dries up the milk.
 50. I quit coffee, and tried tea and at last cocoa. But they did not agree with me. Then I turned to Postum Coffee with the happiest results. It proved to be the very thing I needed. It not only agreed perfectly with baby and myself, but 1t increased the How of my milk. My husband then quit coffee and used Postum, quickly got well of the dyspepsia with which he had been troubled. no longer suffer from the dizziness. blind spells. pain in my heart or sour stomach. Postum has cured them.
 Now we all drink Postum from my husband to my seven months old baby. It has proved to be the best hot drink we have ever used. We would not give up Postum for the best conee we ever drank" Name given by Postum Co. Battle Creek, Mich.

The oldest love leters were found re- gently. They were written by . Babylo- nian gentleman about 220O years before Christ, and were sent to a woman in Sipparra. It is surprising to find that, barring a slight quaintness of diction, they might have been written yester- day. One of these letters is addresser to the writer's little sheep and 1t is declared that you alone are my life. I could spend eternity in the light of your eyes"

 mated that fully 2,400 persons had gathered around the wagon.

PAUL REVERE"
PATRIOTIC PLAY

This evening good old-fashioned
American patriotism will surcharge the
atmosphere of the Orpheum when the
Butler Company of players will appear
in a beautiful play, Paul Revere"
Mr.. Butler starred in this play for
several years and Paul Revere is his
favorite character. The play is splen-
did one, breathing a wholesome spirit
of pure American patriotism that is
very inspiring to the audience. The
scenes are laid during the beginning of
the American revolution.
'I saw the play at the Burbank the
alter in Los Angeles last June" said
Fitzgerald Murphy the other day, 'and
if I may be permitted to coin word to
properly express my thought-it was
the applauSiest play it was ever my
pleasure to witness. It breathes the
fire and fervor of the spirit of '76. The
light in the old North Church in Bos-
ton and Paul Revere's famous ride
from Cambridge to Concord are all
faithfully depicted in the play.
There is a beautiful love-interest
running through the play like thread
of gold The comedy and the pathos
are evenly blended and laughter and
tears are the tributes paid to its power.
Mr. Butler will appear in his own
character and the balance of the COM
pany are well cast.

ICE CREAM SERVED
IN PASTRY HOLDERS

Of all the delectable dainties ever
served in Honolulu none has ever met
with such favor as the delicious ice
cream served in pastry cornucopias
which Mrs. C. A. BlaisdelI has been
offering to the public during the past
few weeks Patrons of the Nance
O'Neil matinee were very partial to
the refreshment so cleverly served
which was sold between the acts for
ten cents each and Mrs. Blaisdell has
been meeting with great success at the
Orpheum with her dainty product.
Mrs Blaisdell has also captured
the school children and this should be
cause for rejoicing among parents as
the cleanliness and edibility of the
homemade ice cream and pastry are
strikingly in contrast to the suspicious
looking CONNECTIONS peddled by Japa-
nese vendors. The little eornucopla
filed with ice cream is sold every
where for ten cents and Mrs. Blaisdell
is the only one now selling them.

NEW ROAD /
LANDSLIDE
Dangerous Slip Occurs
Upon the Pupukea
Roadway.

There was report from the other
side of this island that sixty feet OF
the Pupukea homestead road had slio
down the mountain side This road
was lately built under Territorial
contract for $4,000, out of an appro
priation of $4,000.
John Lucas, chairman of the road
committee of the Board of Supervisors
was not seen until late owing to a sup,
position that he was in Koolauloa
Meantime the conversation with Sup.
erintendent Holloway below reported
was had.
Yes, there has been considerable of
a landslide there" Mr.. Lucas said
cit was at a turn where we had not
yet begun working.
'Work at the other places is going
on all right. The slide makes the
road dangerous to traffic at the place.
1t was caused by the heavy rains.''
A few weeks ago Lucas informed
the Board of Supervisors that some
turns in the road were so sharp that
large wagons could not get around
them without unhitching the teams
and working the vehicles past the
crooks by main strength and superior
ingenuity.
A reformation of the turns was ac-
cordingly authorized. G. S. Holloway,
Superintendent of Public Works, under
whose department the contract was
made and completed, on being ques-
toned relative to the reported land
slide said:
cit is news to me. The county
supervisors are making some changes
in the road, widening the turns, but
l have not heard of any washout. 4
was out with Jack Lucas yesterday
and he said nothing about such a
thing. When ] saw the road last it
seemed to me all right-the grades are
easy-except that the turns were toe
short. Lucas and I went over the fGad
some weeks ago and since then the
contractor, A. A Wilson, has been EN-
ployed to widen the Gurns on a day
labor proposition. The county pays
the expense.

kea homesteads on the high lands, or
