a Charming Booklet.

About the neatest little advertising
pamphlet seen in Honolulu for many
day is that recently gotten out for the
Haleiwa Hotel and the Oahu Railway.
The pamphlet tells how to take the
trip by rail to the beautiful resort at
Waialua, and is prettily descriptive of
the charms OF the ride and the things
that are to be seen by the way. L
then gives a description of the Hale
iva Hotel itself, the most convenient
resort close TO Honolulu, telling how
to reach the place and what it costs to
live there after it has been reached.
The booklet is excellently printed,
and is illustrated with a set of the best
and most characteristic halftones ever
resented to show the beauties of Ha-
1eiwa. The halftones, in fact, are the
chief charm of the booklet, printed in
delicate sepia and each line being as
plain as possible.
