TABLET.
The dwelling to Take
Place at
-Four.

The exercises to take place this aft
ernoOn at PunahOu at 4 o'clock, when
the Bingham tablet will he unveiled,
will be significant ceremony. There
is some special reason why each person
who appears should have part in the
program. The music, which is in charge
of Miss Caroline Castle, has been
chosen because of its appropriateness.
Especially is this true of the hymn,
Head Of the Church Triumphant, -
which the whole and:.lce vii join in
singing. 1t was sung at the ordina-
ton of Father Bingham and Father
Thurston, at the Park street church in
Boston just prior to their embarkation,
and on the ship by Mr.. Bingham and
Mr.. Thurston, both of whom possessed
fine voices, as they lay off the lee
ward shore of Hawaii.
An ode will be read by Mrs. L. B.
Coan, which was written especially in
honor of Father Bingham and his mis-
sionary labors in Hawaii, by the poet
William Bingham Tappan, relative
of the family.
A special invit lt.hn is extended to
all those who are cCLnectet with the
missionary families and to those who
are now doing Christian work in the
Islands, to the cousins, the Hawaiian
band, the Daughters of Hawaii, and
the Hawaiian Historical Society, to old
Punahou students and friends, and to
the Hawaiians who are interested. The
public will also be cordially welcomed.
The Hawaiian band will begin to
play at $3.50 p. m. and the program,
which is as follows, viii begin at 4

Mortality in the Army.

The splendid efficiency of the Japa-
nese medical service in the recent war
taught military surgeons the world
over that it is no longer necessary for
an army camp to be one vast hospital,
and In no country was this lesson more
ieeded than the United States. Ac-
cording to figures printed by the New
York Globe 110,07O Union soldiers
were killed in action or died from
wounds during the Civil War, and
249.45S died of disease In the war
with Spain, only 26S Americans sue
cumbed to bullet wounds. while 3,S62
died of disease. This is in the pro-
portion of fourteen TO one. while the
proportion in the Civil War was a lit
tie more than two to one 1t is said
that out of $1,000 French soldiers
sent to Madagascar in 1894. only
twenty-nine were killed in action OF
died of wounds. but more than 1000
perished of disease

A Teachers Testimony.

Hinton, Ky. Oct. Specially
1t has long been claimed that Dia-
betes is incurable, but Mr.. f. j.
Thompson, teacher in the Hinton
school, has pleasing evidence 10 the
contrary. Mr. Thompson had Diabe-
tes. He took Dodd's Kidney Pills and
Is cured. In a statement he makes
regarding the cure Mr.. Thompson
says:
II was troubled with my kidneys
for more than two years and was
treated by two Of the best doctors i'll
this part of the state. They claimed
had Dia betes and there was little to
be done for me. Then | started to
use Dodd's Kidney Pills and what they
did for me was wonderful 1t is en-
tirely owing 10 Dodd's Kidney Pills
that | am now enjoying good health"
Many doctors still maintain that Di-
abetes is incurable. But Diabetes is a
kidney disease and the kidney disease
that Dodds Kidney Pills will not cure
has yet to be discovered

Cure for Obesity.

A certain fat man in New York who
wished to reduce his weight says the
Youths Companion, began by collect
ing pamphlets offered by firms that ad-
vertise cures for obesity He was
much struck by the fact that all agreed
in one particular. While each firm ad-
vised the regular taking of its particu-
lar cure, and several said Others are
useless, and worse" all insisted that
a great deal of exercise and a peculiar
diet must be taken with the medicine.
About six months afterward. the
pamphlet collector now no longer a
fat man, entered a New York drug
store.
I'm eternally obliged to you," he
said to the proprietor
"How's that. sir?"
six months ago | weighed two hun
dred and twenty-seven pounds. Now |
weigh only one hundred and eighty"
Would you kindly give me your
name and address, sir?" said the fat
cure vender in great delight.
Certainly" and he gave it..
"If you'd allow us to refer to your
case, we should be greatly obliged"
Certainly. That's what I came in
for. I've written out a testimonial" :"
He handed it to the aeliented pro-
prietor, repeated I'm eternally obliged
to YOU and departed.
The druggist read the following:
Il have much pleasure in recon-
mending Mr.. ----'s pamphlet on
the cure of obesity In consequence
of reading it, l have reduced my
weight in six months from two hun
dred and twenty-seven pounds to one
hundred and eighty pounds, with great
benefit to my general health. | rigid
ly followed the pamphlets advice to
take regular exercise and eschew fatty,
starchy and sweet foods. This saved
me a good deal of money, for never

Treatment for the Complexion.


Why are ladies SO especially inter-
ested in the complexion of their faces?
They ought to be interested in the
complexion of their whole bodies. It
is not of much consequence what
the complexion of the face is. if the
color of the body in general is right.
A clear complexion all over the body
is an indication of sound body.
In England, when pugilist is in
training for an encounter in the ring,
his trainer knows by his complexion
when he is ready for the fight He
says, This man is in the pink OF con-
dition, because his skin is as clear as
a woman's.'
The skin is signboard for the
whole body. An unhealthy looking
complexion. a dry. inactive skin. is
an indication of the unhealthy condi-
tion of the body all through.
Bathing is good thing for the COM
plexion; cool morning bath will tone
up the skin, invigorate the appetite,
and stimulate the vital processes. But
the best cosmetic of all is pure diet.
Those who have been brought up on
a vegetarian diet usually have pure
skins. Healthy little children always
have clear skins. but as they get old
er their skins often become dingy and
sallow. simply because they have
learned to abuse the laws of life and
health. and have INDUCED their appe-
tites with unwholesome things.

The Brutality of Football.

II YOU were the mother whose boz
was brought home dead from being
butted in the stomach, like that boy
in Canon City, or if you were the
mother whose boy lay in the hospital
at the point of death from being
sicked in the back, like that young
man In Denver, you would not listen
with much patience TO the people that
told you how valuable is the game OF
football in building up physical
strength or disciplining the mind to
habits of courage. promptness. obedi-
ence and self control. All your soul
would rise within you in the demand
that the evil should be separated from
the good and that the barbarity of
football should be stopped. And you
would be right.-PueblO Chieftain.

When physician tells a woman, Suf-
fering from ovarian or womb trouble.
that an operation is necessary it, of
course, frightens her.
The very thought of the operating
table and the knife strikes terror to
her heart. AS one woman expressed
it, when told by her physician that she
must undergo an operation. she felt
that her death kne1l had sounded
Our hospitals are full of women
who are there for ovarian or womb
operations!
1t is quite true that these troubles
may reach stage where an operation
is the only resource, but such cases are
much rarer than is generally supposed.
because great many women have
been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham' S
Vegetable Compound after the doctors
had said an operation must be per-
formed. In fact, up to the point where
the knife must be used to secure instant
relief. this medicine is certain to help.
The strongest and most grateful
statements possible to make come from
women who, by taking Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound, have
escaped serious operations.
Margrite Ryan. Treasurer of st. An.

Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-

There are over 1000 such children

such sufferers in this country at $4,000

The purpose of this seaside home, as
described in the American Queen, is
% To prove that it is possible by salt

Sea Breeze Home. The treatment is
very simple: Plenty of pourishing food,

President Roosevelt's visit to the
hospital brought it to the notice OF
thousands who are interested in the
saving of child lives throughout the
country. Mrs. Roosevelt went with
him. and they both took great interest
in the children, talking wl.n them per-

HEALTHY CHILDREN.

Without good health life is not
worth living. Sickly, peevish chill

To make children healthy and to
keep them in that condition it is nee
essary to feed them proper food and

An adroit but plausible scheme by
which it is hoped to prejudice the sale

Some of the best and most widely
used remedies in the world contain
some one ingredient which, If taken
in sufficient quantities. might be poi

whole is not poisonous at all. Opium,
for instance, is used in small quanti-
ties in many of the best cures for

To require such medicines to be false

cunning device to alarm the public

OF the sale of those remedies, and in
directly TO compel people to procure
the medicine they want by the more
expensive method of consulting a phy-
