Judge Christopher NJ. Lee OF tho Sixth

WAILUKU, Maui, May 22.-The
Congressional party and their wives
and daughters have been four days
in Waluku and vicinity. Maui's
sons and daughters have turned out
Ell masse to meet our visitors and the
latter have expressed their great de-
light in meeting the people Of this
Fart of Maui.
Last Saturday at noon at the Ka-
huui Fishery one of the biggest and
finest luaus ever given on Maui was
given in honor of the Congressional
party. A large lanai, GO by 10, was
erected on the Fishery grounds COW
cred with canvass loaned by the Ka-
hului Railroad Company for the &C.
casion. The two large tables were
covered with mountain evergreens as
well as the posts of the lanai. Fes-
toons of evergreens were likewise
strung from post to post and the ef-
feet was very beautiful
About o'clock the Congressional
party were out inspecting the Kahu-
lui breakWater.
The previous day Representative
Jones of Seattle succeeded in killing
twenty-foot shark with his six
shooter, and he will return to his ma
tive land covered with the glory Of
having killed a man-eater.
About II o'clock the members
were driven in automobiles and hacks
to. the luau grounds, and as soon as
they hove in sight pretty Hawaiian
maidens with armfuls of sweet
scented garlands, appeared on the
scene and gently placed wreaths
around the necks of the visitors. Some
of the ladies, especially Mrs. Hamil-
ton, were decorated with several leis.

Cod Liver ,,ii AS a Food.

Nine persons out of every ten think
of cod liver oil as a medicine. S.uce
1t is so regarded 1t has to share the
odium of all medicines.
Few people use it unless 1t Is pre-
scribed by a physician Now, cod
liver oil is a medicine in the sense
that it is wonderfully effective in the
treatment of many diseases. But it
is not medicine In the popularity
accepted meaning of the term. That
Is, it is not a drag. Cod liver oil
is primarily food. Perhaps the
most accurate way to describe 1t
would be to call it a medicinal food.
The fact that nothing else equals
1t as producer of strength In the
body suggests almost UNLIMITED pos
sibilities of~use in the diet Where
as now cod liver oil is rarely taken
except as medicine. 1t could be
used universally as food with
most gratifying results.
1t Is a curious thing that the ele-
ments of cod liver oil have been
combined by nature in the making
of that oil a skill which surpasses
all human chemistry. or even human
knowledge. 1t is an astonishing
fact that cod liver oil is so complex
that, in 81 lite o. the most painsta king
analysis and dllisent investigation,
no man has yet been able to DIS
cover any OF tho clements which
enter into it's composition.

has been in the office for some time
received his official appointment
Friday morning from Washington
and will assume his duties at once
at salary of 5000.
The report of the Vermont sol

first morning of the quarter begin
ming July 1, shows that there are in
the home IS pr esent for duty and
and p in the hospital. During the
last quarter there were eight men,
bers. admitted. Twenty-Five were
lost by discharge and other causes.
Fortyeight were granted absence
with leave and 40 returned from alb
sence with leave. The average dali
ly present for duty during the three
months was TO-, and the average
present and absent, 90.
The Armstrong farm in the west
ern part of Bennington as usual will
be the headquarters this season of

first party of children will arrive in
two weeks. The farm is we'll adapt

evated ground with plenty of shade
and pleasant prospects. About $50
children will be accommodated dur
ing the summer.
The mounting of two old coast
defense guns at the base of the Ben
nington Battle monument has been
completed. Col. Olin Scott, presi-
dent of the monument association,
has been influential in procuring the
relics and has footed the | ills incl
dental thereto. In 1905 Colonel
Scott, through Judge Darling, then
assistant secretary of the navy, Sc
cured two mortars from the Ports
mouth navy yard, but these were
not satisfactory and Judge Darling
effected an exchange for the pieces
just mounted, which were once used
in defense of Boston harbor.
While driving through the 'Lane'
recently Mrs. Ira Glover of Dorset
met with an exciting experience.
After slowly passing herd of cattle
and suppo,ins the road clear, she
started her horse, when COW
dashed out of some bushes throwing
itself and the horse to the ground.
Although clever horsewoman, Mrs.
Glover could not extricate the tam
gle of horse harness, and thills, SO
she quietly sat on the horses head
while the small boy who was driv-
ing the cattle ran for help half a
mile distant.
