THE CARDS OF
INSTRUCTION
\ TECHNICAL ERROR POINTED
OUT IN REGARD TO SUPEBVI-
sORS AND WERE REPRINTED.

When the first cards of Instructions
to voters which the law requires the
County Clerk to get out to tack up
near polling booths, they directed vot-
ers to vote for one sheriff, one auditor
and SO ON, and FOUR SUPERVISORS.
Two or three people called the atten-
ton of the County Clerk to the fact
that technically the instruction
should be to vote for one Supervisor
at-Large and three District Supervi-
sors. Some thought that the instruc-
ton to vote for Four Supervisors might
mislead some voters. To avoid all
possibility Of this the cards were re-
printed making the distinction between
Supervisor-at-Larg and District Su-
pervisors, although Deputy Buffandeau
pointed out that the cards also called
the voters attention to the same in
structions on the sample and other
tickets, and that on the tickets the
candidates for Observation-Disclosures are
separated from the candidates for Dis
trict SUPERVISOR and that on the ticket
the voter is instructed to vote for one
Supervisorat-Large and for Three Dis
trict Supervisors in the District of Ho-
nolulu.

THE FORECAsTER's GUESS.

THE FORECASTER'S GUESS.
WASHINGTON, November 4.-Re-
publican and Democratic forecasts of
the Congressional elections are as fol-
lows: The Republicans claim the next
House by a majority of IS and the
Democrats by a majority of %.
Forecasts of State elections show
that California is claimed for the Re-
publicans by 10000 majority and for
the Democrats by 5000.
New York is uncertain. The figures
coming from there are worthless. Re-
publicans claim the Labor detection
from the Democrats will offset Demo-
cratic gains. They say that Hughes
will come down to The Bronx with 2OO,-
900 majority, thus overcoming 100000
majority for Hearst in New York City.

Gated in private schools and the Uni

make you irritable; you can't sleep.
you are unable to quietly and calmly
perform your daily tasks or care for
your children.
The relation of the nerves and gen.
erative organs in woman is so close
that nine-tenths of the nervous pros
tration, nervous debility, the blues,
sleeplessness and nervous irritability
arise from some arrangement of the
organism which makes her a woman.
Fits of depression or restlessness and
irritability ; spirits easily affected, so
that one minute she laughs, the next
minute weeps; pain in the abdominal
region and between the shoulders
loss of voice; nervous dyspepsia; a
tendency to cry at the least provoca-
tion-all these point to nervous pros
tration.
Nothing will relieve this distressing
condition and prevent months of pros
tration and suffering so surely as Lydia
E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Mrs. M. e. Shotwell of 1O3 Flatbush
Avenue, BROOKLYN, N. Y, writes:
81 cannot express the wonderful relief 1
have experienced by taking Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound. l suffered for
a long time with nervous prostration, back
ache, headache, loss of appetite. l could
not sleep and would walk the floor almost
every night.
81 had three doctors and got no better and
life was burden | was advised to try
Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable Compound,
and it has worked wonders for me.
81 am a well woman, my nervousness is all
gone and my friends say l look ten years
younger"
VIII not the volumes of letters from
women made strong by Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound convince
all women of it's virtues? Surely you
cannot wish to remain sick, weak
and discouraged, exhausted each day,
when you can be as easily cured as
other women.

Cotton of the ync0s.

Cotton growing in Peru dates back
to prehistoric times, and it is quite a
common occurrence to bring to light
fine specimens of cotton textiles in
digging up ancient Inca graves. At
various times subsequent to the con-
quest foreign varieties of cotton-Egyp-
tian, Argelian, sea island, Metafifi-
have been introduced among the plan
tations, but the distinctly Peruvian
variety, the Peruvian rough Of COM
merce, still commands superior prices
abroad. Exports are chiefly to Eng
land and the United States. The ia
nous Peruvian rough. however, does
not take kindly to cultivation in all
parts of the republic, lea and Plura
being the regions where apparently it
thrives best. The variety called local
ly "Egyptian," which is our upland"
Of the United States. grows readily in
the coast region of Peru. The Argelian
variety is less adaptable to local con-
ditions AID suffers greatly from a
prevalent blight, the bane of cotton
planters. which is locally known as
"hielo'' FROST. 1t is probably of bac-
THEOLOGICAL origin and, here ut least,
has no remedy. The Metafifi Vano-
