The Favorite Girl.

She is the girl who is not "too bright
and too good to be able to find joy
and pleasure all over the world, says
the Chicago News.
She is the girl who appreciates the
fact that she cannot always have the
first choice of everything in the world,
She is the girl who is not aggressive
and does not find JOY in melting ag-
gressive people.
She is the girl who has tact enough
not TO say the very thing that will
cause the skeleton in her friends closet
to rattle his bones.
She is the girl who, whether it is
warm or cold, clear or stormy, finds
no fault with the weather
She is the girl who when you invite
her to any place compliments you by
looking her best
She is the girl who makes this world
pleasant place because she is so
pleasant herself

He VISITED
LATE FLOW
Volcano Expert Returns
From Mauna LOa's
Slope.

Professor FriedIaender of Naples,
who is making a study of the worlds
active volcanoes. has returned to HI
nolulu after visit to Hawaii.
/ He has been in the Territory about
a month and leaves here about June /
for Fiji. From there he will go to
| Samoa. He visited Hawaii in 1898 and
1894.
While on Hawaii Friedlaender visit
ed Kilauea and made several excur-
sions up the slope of Mauna Loa, GO
ing to the source Of the 1907 flow.
He states that he found a great diff
ference between Kilauea in 1888 and
now. Fourteen years ago the pit was
lava in the bottom.
IT went from Waiohinu through the
Kahuku ranch to the source of the
1907 fiow," said the professor, yester-
day, land made observations on the
crack where the 1907 flow came out.
It is the same crack as started the
1887 flow and quite number of old
streams. The crack comes down from
little hill on the slope Of Mauna Loa,
about four miles distant from Mokua-
weoweo, which the natives call Poha-
ku Hanalei. This Pohaku Hanalei is
to the south of Mokuaweoweo and
must not be confused with the one to
the north, marked on the government
map.
Il then went to the 1899 flow from
Humuula. This flow begins in the
Dewey crater and comes out of the
crack which starts from the northern
Pohaku Hanalei. From this crack
started the flows of 1S43, 1852, 1856, 1880,
1881 and 1899.
There the flows have built up many
small hills at their source. Both cracks

Of the same two cracks. They are the
weak points of the mountain, and /
eruptions are likely to occur there for
4 long time to come.
1T was from the northern crack that
the 1880 flow started which nearly
reached Hilo. This was because the
natural slope of the mountain leads CO.

REDEMPTION OF BANK NOTES

In countries where the circulating
medium consists of notes issued by a
central national bank, az In France
and Germany. or by a system of
branch banks, as in Canada, the re-
tirement OF circulation is very
simple matter. When the obligations
of borrowers mature they are dis
charged by the payment OF bank notes
and these are therefore retired.
But TO devise plan of the auto
matte redemption and retirement Of
the notes Issued by G.000 independent
rational banks In the United States
Is very far from being a simple mat
ter.
And tho difficulty OF putting into
operation such plan, after II bad
been. devised is increased by the
training of forty years. which has
taught the people OF the United
States to regard the national bank
notes as money needing no redcmp-
ton.
Under existing Law. permitting the
retiren1rnt OF $4,000 national bank
notes monthly. the notes are not. re
tired. but an equivalent amount of
lawful money available as bank re-
serve is locked up In the United
States treasury. The bank that Is
sued the notes receives back the
binds that were held as security for
the notes. and is relieved from fur
Their taxation on the circulation OF
them. but the notes are not redeemed
and retired until in the ordinary slow
course of business they are received
al the treasury for current redemp.
