Oh. SCUDDER'S VIEWS.

Editor Advertiser: With all due
Difference to the opinion of the Rev.
Mr.. Scudder as a minister of the Cos
pei, [ do not accede that he is In the
least an authority upon character or a
student of human nature, and that he
has gone very wide of the mark when
he asserts that Chinese blood would
improve any race whatever!
The foundation of a noble, courage
Gus, loving and forgiving nature q
take to be in the ethics of Christian
ity) and will be found, and more cas-
lily developed in those people who are
descended and have been born for
many generations under its benefcent
influence, and not in a people who can
be wearing Christianity Cat the present
time) only as a cloak for furthering
commercial interests. The Chinaman
is essentially and above all other char
acteristics, a material without an atom
of imagination or poetry in his nature.
AS to improving the natives,' l. of
course, do not agree with Mr.. Scudder
probably offer a poor native girl
home to keep her from positive want.
Physically the native is originally a
more healthy person and morally (in
their primitive condition) simple as
grown up child. AS to the other prop
osit1on of the Oriental intermarrying
with the white race for the improve
ment of the latter, l would like to say
for myself as white man and a
father: L would infinitely prefer to see

as another alternative, 1 would rather

united to one of that race. Let Mr..
Scudder go behind the scenes and make
an unbiased study of the Chinese
character, with their motives of action,
ana II he will see things as they exist,
ne can not but arrive at the following
conclusions:
That the Chinaman is a pretty good
money-maker, fairly square in his bust
ness transactions, peaceabIe under
protest, civil and serviceable when he is
gaming money; but spiteful and re-
vengeful when he is in any wav
crossed, and more cowardly and mean

A HABIT TO BE ENCOURAGED.

The mother who has acquired the
habit of keeping on hand bottle of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, saves
herself a great amount of uneasiness
and anxiety. Coughs, colds and Group,
to which children are susceptible are
quickly cured by it's use. It counter
acts any tendency OF cold to result in
pneumonia, and when given as soon
as the first symptoms of Group appear
it will prevent the attack. This rene

LETTERS OF
THE PEOPLE
Parking Waikiki Road
DR.. Scudder's
Views.

Editor Advertiser: The County Su-
pervisors have under serious considera-
ton the parking of Kalakaua avenue,
setting aside 20 feet in the center of
that road in it's present width for that
purpose and planting palms and lawn
with stone curbing all around. From
an artistic point of view the PROPOSE
ton seems very fine and nice. Looking
at it from the practical side for all
around use. it will spoil the incest ave
nue. in the Islands, besides 1t would
make it dangerous to man and beast.
There is quite an agitation going on
among the owners of carriages and au-
tomobiIes, also large number of prop
erty -owners along the famous Waikiki
road, now officially named Kalakaua
avenue, Directing quite strenuously to
the plan of our superiors- l like the
tree planting proposition all right, but
not in the center of the road. Plant
the cocoa palms on both sides of the
road and give the public wide, we'll
kept oil road, free from all obstacles.
The Waikiki road in its present
width is not suited for any park en-
bellishments.
I have lived long enough in Homo
lulu to have seen that road widened
three different times and it is none too
wide now, with our up-to-date rapid
car system and the ever-increasing
traffic to our famous seaside resort.
The county is spending quite bit of
money in putting that long-neglected
road in shape, but for pity sake don t
spoil the only driveway when it took
such a long while to make it decent.
If the Supervisors have s20,000-and
don It know how to spend it for us-I
respectfully submit that they buy an
interest in that long strip of property
facing the beach just before the Wal
kiki bridge on the townside and have
that high and unsightly board fence
This would give everybody a
chance to enjoy the beach and ocean
from the best point possible and prove
a fitting climax to that grand road
way, Kalakaua avenue, as now under
process of reconstruction.
Mr.. Editor, these are my points of
view. Would be pleased to hear from
other minds. Respectfully,
JAMES STEINER.

White RainboWs.

Though rainbowS are generally asSo-
eiated with colCrs. there is such phe-
nomenon as white rainbow. The cir
cumstances necessary for this forma-
ton are fine rain and strong sun.
The phenomenon is due to the optic
principal known as interference. II
the drops of water be very small, the
interference CT the rays causes such
a complete overlapping of the coll
ors that the bow appears white.
That is to say, the various prisma-
tic colcrs instead Of being thrown out
separately, as in the ordinary prism,
are thrown one on the top Of the other,
and the light is thrown by the sun, as
it were, on sheet of rain. The fine
close rain produces the same effect as
a woven texture. This result is still
more noticeable where fog takes the
place of the rain.
The phenomenon is not often no.
ticed, because the conditions necessary
to the formation Of a white rainbow
are strong light. close rain and a
sun lying near the horizon. These three
conditions are not often present at ths
same time.-London Standard.

Strengthening the Nerves.

The nerves are strengthened, first,
by being regular in all things, espe-

Second, by providing enough rest

freshens the entire body.
Third, to eat and drink moderately.

Would Not Be RefiIIed,

About once in so often readers are
reminded in the public prints that a
halo of fame and wealth beyond the
dreams of avarice is awaiting the in
dividual whose inventive genius shall
produce the bottle that cannot be re-
filed All sorts of devices nave been
tried, but none, it is said, has proved
practical. According to man who
keeps posted on such things, however.
successful non-refllable bottle has
been invented, and the device is OF
the simplest nature. The wise person
who thought It out has scent piece
blown in the glass at the bottom of
the bottle. OF course, no one who
empties a bottle decorated in this
fashion is going to let that nickel get
away from him, and as he has to
break the bottle to secure the alluring
coin, the bottle, quite naturally, can
not be used again. The name of the
inventor is not known, bat it is safe
to say that he lives in Connecticut
and is near relative of the man who
invented the wooden nutmeg. -Provi.

this season the woman fOreswore fll-
nerals for while and went away for
a vacation. The day after her return
she met a neighbor, who was 40, thin
and plain spoken.
Good morning, Martha" said the

mother this morning."
MAS dead dTawled Martha.
ooh, am so sorry" cried the sing
err Cal be of any assistance?"
mo, Iuess not" said Martha.
The singer was surprised at that.
when is your mother to be bur-

"She is buried" said Martha, who,
in her turn. showed establishment.

"Why, it is strange l didn't hear any
thing about it. When did she die?"
about six months ago"
