Here is something Polly Evans saw
with uer own eyes the other evening. A
lady who had just purchased an evening
paper from one of a group Of newsboys
accidentally dropped it, Immediately and
instinctively one Of the group stopped and
picked it UP for the lady. but turned away
almost before she could say thank YOU
with the air Of being half ashamed of his
deed.
The next day, the same lady. walking
down the street. was greeted with the
usual inquiry, Have a paper, Lady," and
was about to say, No" when she recog-
nized the little fellows face. He was her
gentleman of the evening beforel She
smiled, changed her no to yes and
said she hoped she should see him again
on this occasion politeness paid the
newsboy 10 lie extent of a cent But if
he Cultivates the instincts of a gentleman

some day find his politeness paying him

One would think that politeness was not

ROughReSs to Sisters
I have known girls who were not any
too polite to their brothers, and there may
be faults on both sides. But even at home
boys should remember that girls are girls.
and are TO be treated as such. and not as
targets for missiles or as try-your-

boys, and boys ought TO consider them

them, But I have seen a girls. arm uDon

These bodies Of ours-what wonderful
things they are!
Has any one ever talked to you boys
and girls about the remarkable manner
of your own growth, gradual but cease
less, from the big-headed. short-legged
baby that YOU We're. into the correctly
proportional men and women that you
expect some day to become? Why, there
is nothing more marvellous under the
heavens!
This growth is constantly changing
sou, and yet the changes are so gradual
and systematic as to be almost imper-
ceptible
One odd thing is that while many Of
the relative proportions of different parts
Of the body vary from time to time as
your growth goes on, your ears never
change their relative size. They are al
ways twice as long as your eye is wide
They were so when you were a baby, and
Will be so when you are grown.
Your feet and head, on the other hand
vary in their prOpOTtiOnate size all
through the period OF your growth
Look at the picture above and note a
striking feature about the heads and feet

length Of his head; the foot and head Of

And the desire of fame and love of truth
And all that makes a man

M'CANlLESS SAYS
HILO APPROVES
OF HIS ACTION
ADVISED THAT STEPS WILL BE
TAKEN TO RAISE FUNDS TO
HELP HIS FIGHT.

This Lanai injunction is becoming
a popular ISSUE said Senator McCand-
less this morning. by the mail from
Hilo last Saturday l received a letter
from a prominent man of that city ex-
pressed his approval of the attempt
have made to check the deal. He said
that it was his opinion as well as the
opinion of other people of that place,
that such a large transfer Of public
property to a single private interest
should be checked He said that if
it were necessary for me to take the
case to the Supreme Court of the
United States they would take steps in
Hilo to collect funds to aid in the
expenses of such extensive litigation.
In this connection l want to say
that the attitude of the Governor is a
peculiar one. He acts as if he thought
that here would never be a governor
after him; one is almost inclined to
think that the governor believes that it
is for him to settle the affairs of the
territory for all time to come and that
if be leaves anything unsettled the ISL
ands will go to wreck and ruin.
Suppose the governments land on
Lanai is at this time, worthless; sup
pose that it is not now suitable for
settlers. Such a condition would not de-
mand that the land should be sold to
private parties but rather that the
government should take steps 10 re-
claim that land so that it could once
more become fertile. 1t makes no
difference whether such reclamation
would require fifteen, twnty or even
fifty years The time is coming when
we will have thousands of people in
Hawaii, to take up land and settle.
The islands are too limited as it is.
for land. to allow the government to.
deliberately dispose OF such a vast.
tract. The government should start
at once to reclaim that Lanai land and,
not turn it over so that private parties
may convert it to profit"
