AN ENGINEERS OPINION.

Among the visitors in Hilo last week
was d. E. Hughes, who is the super
intending engineer in charge of the
San Pedro breakwater, under the fed
eral government. Mr.. Hughes was
greatly interested in the Hilo break
water proposition, and gave some of
his time to studying it.
I think the construction of break
water here is going to cost a lot more
for rock than it cost in California"

His final approval of the project will
mean an immediate commencement of
work The appropriation carried with
it a proviso that the money was not
to be spent unless on further examtn-
alton the proposed breakwater met
with the approval Of the Chief Of En-

The captain arrived at an opportune
time to see the need Of harbor protee-

MISS GRACE {. MILLER

81 am not feeling very WELL" II
am so nervous it seems as though
should fly. my back aches as though
it would break"
How often do you hear these signi-
fcant expressions from WON n
friends. More than likely you speak
the same words yourself, and there
is q cause.
More than thirty years ago Lydia
E. Pinkham of Lynn, Mass. discovered
the source of nearly all the suffering
endured by her sex. "Woman's Ills,"
these two words are full of more
misery to women than any other two
words that can be found in the
English language. Sudden fainting,
depression of spirits, reluctance to
go anywhere, backaches, headaches,
nervousness, sleeplessness, bearing
down sensations, displacements and
irregularities are the bane Of woman's
existence.
The same woman who discovered
the cause of all this misery also
discovered remedy. Lydia e. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound made
from native roots and herbs holds
the record for greater number OF
absolute cures of female ills than any
other one remedy the world has ever
known and it is the greatest blessing
which ever came into the lives of
suffering women.
Don't try to endure, but cure the
cause of all your suffering. Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at
once removes such troubles. The
following letters prove this:

A Goose n Years Old.

Among the interesting assets which
Moran has to it's credit is a goose
which had reached the mature age Of II
years, says the Kansas City Journal.
This Oldest inhabitant of the fowl
tribe in Allen county is owned by
James Strong. Mr.. Strong has owned
it for many years and is greatiy at
tached to it, and does everything to
make its latter days pleasant. There
are, OF course, reasons other than
those of sentiment why this goose is
safe from being served up as a table
delicacy.
In 1871, when William Jones left
Iowa for Kansas, a friend gave him a
goose which was 35 years old at the
time. 1t was regarded as fairly ven-
cradle bird then, but it stood the hard.
ship of pioneer life In Allen county
with no complaint. When Newt Strong
married niece Of Mr.. Jones he gave
them the goose. Later they moved to
Iowa and left the goose with James
Strong. who still has it.

Stimulate the Blood.

Brandreth's Pills are the great blood
purifier. They are laxative and blood
tonic, they act equally on the bow
els, kidneys and skin, thus cleansing
the system by the natural outlet OF
the body. They stimulate the blood
so to enable nature to throw off all
morbid humors and cure all troubles
arising from an impure state of the
blood. One or two taken every night
will prove an invaluable remedy.
Each pill contains one grain of solid
extract of sarsaparilla, which, with
other valuable vegetable products
make it blood purifier unexcelled.
Brandreth's Pills have been in use
for over century, and are for sale
everywhere, plain or sugar-coated.

AWFUL NEURALGIA
Pain Turned This Woman's Hair
White but She Was Cured by
Or. Williams Pink Pills.

Do not seek relief from suffering
simply, but free your system from the
disease which is the cause of your
suffering. That is the message which
a former victim of neuralgia sends to
those who are still in it's grasp. Hot
applications, powders that deaden the
senses and others tnat reduce the
heart action may cause temporary re-
lief but the pain is sure to return witn
greater intensity.
Mrs. Evelyn Creusere, who has a
beautiful home at 81 Boulevard
West, Detroit, Mich, suffered for
years with neuralgia until she tried
this tonic treatment. She says:
"My trouble began about six years
ago and I did not rest as l should
have, but kept up about my many
duties. After a time 1 became so
weak I could not do any work at all.
! had severe backaches and such
dreadful headaches in the back part
and top Of my head. My eyes were
easily tired and at times saw black
spots before them. + consulted sew
eral doctors but without the slightest
benefit. The pains were so intense
that my hair turned white.
81 lost continually in weight and
strength and was almost in despair
when a friend recommended DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills. I tried them ac-
cording to directions and soon began
to feel relief. At the end of three
months I had gained ten pounds in
weight and had no more. trouble VITA

health ever since and can heartily
commend DR.. Williams Pink Pills."

u. S. DISPENSATORY
Describes the Principal Ingredients
Contained In Pe-ru-na.

Describes the Principal Ingredients
Contained in Pe-ru-na.
Are we claiming too much for Peruna
when we claim it to be an effective
remedy for chronic catarrh? Have we
abundant proof that Peruna Is in real
ity such catarrh remedy? Let us see
what the United States Dispensatory
says of the principal ingredients Of
Peruna.
Take, for instance, the ingredient
hydrastis canadensis, or golden seal.
The United States Dispensatory says
of this herbal remedy, that it is largely
employed in the treatment of depraved
mucous membranes, chronic rhinitis
(nasal catarrh), atomic dyspepsia (ca-
tarrh of the shomach), chronic intesti-
nal catarrh, catarrhal jaundice, (ca-
tarrh of the iver) and in diseased
mucous membranes of the pelvic organs.
It is also recommended for the treat
ment of various forms of diseases pc
culiar to women.
Another ingredient of Peruna, cory
dalis formosa, is classed in the United
States Dispensatory as tonic. So also
is cubebs classed as stomachic and as
q tonic for the mucous membranes.
Cedron seeds is another ingredient Of
Peruna, an excellent drug that has
been very largely overlooked by the
medical profession for the past fifty
years. The seeds are to be found in
very few drug stores. The United
States Dispensatory says of the action
of cedron that it is used as bitter
tonic and in the treatment of dysentery,
and in intermittent diseases as sub
stitute for quinine.
Oil of copaiba, another ingredient Of
Peruna, is classed by the United States
Dispensatory as a mild stimulant and
diuretic. It acts on the stomach and
intestinal tract. It acts as stimu.
liant on the genito-urinary membranes.
Useful in chronic cystitis, chronic dys-
entery and diarrhea, and some chronic
diseases of the liver and kidneys.

malls of what the people think of Pc
runa as catarrh remedy. The best
evidence is the testimony Of those who
have tried it.

number of precursors in Europe,
where the science of aerial navigation
has for many years received careful
study.
When the Aero club of America or.
ganized its first exposition, in Janu-
ary, 1906, balloons were imported
from Paris, and the public was given
the opportunity of seeing what they
were like. Photographs of balloon as
tensions were displayed and an eff.
fort was made to arouse popular in
terest in the sport as it is practiced
abroad.
This show was followed by mum.
Der of actual ascents from different
places in the eastern states, and thus
people in one section of this country
at least were given an opportunity to
become familiar with aerial naviga-
ton in it's simplest and safest form.
The home of the Aero club, the city
of New York, is unfavorably situated
as ballooning center. The ocean,
the one peril of the aeronauts, is close
at hand, and only with wind from a
made with perfect safety. The gas
question is also an important factor,
and the Aero club has found at Pitts
field, Mass, station combining the
features-distance from the sea and
an abundant supply of coal gas. The
great drawback is it's distance from
New York and other centers of popu-
| lation.
The Aero club has acquired two
balloons, one of them, the Centaur,
having made the record balloon jour-
ney from Paris to Russia in 1900.
These aerostats are available for
ascensions by members and it is
hoped that before long the club will
be able to acquire new balloons.
1t should be the province of the
Aero Club of America to encourage all
attempts at solution Of the flying
problems, and it should investigate
and report upon every invention or
contrivance which seems to have a
reasonable chance of success. A tech
nical committee composed of experts
| and scientists, in whose names and
regulations the public will have con-
fdence, will be appointed. This COM
mittee will be authorized to solicit and
receive subscriptions, to be spent ju-
diciously and when there is a good
chance for profitable return. Only
by lavish expenditure of money and
my continued experiments can sue
cess in flying be achieved. In France
all that has been accomplished in
this direction has been largely done
by the generosity of few patrons of
aeronautics. The most successful
steerable balloons now owned by the
French government are due to the
Lebaudys, who spent large sums of
money in experiments and whose
tion. The rich prizes offered by M.
Deutsch de la Muerthe stimulated San
tos-Dumont to achieve his notable
flight around the Eifel tower. M.
Deutsch has built at his own ex.
pense large airship which recently
maneuvered near Paris and he has Of
fered prizes of great value for aero
planes.
Is there not in all this land of swol-
len fortunes some one who will offer
a prize of sufficient size to reward
the inventor and repay him for all the
years he has to spend in unsuccessful
effort? To England belongs the credit
of having invented the steam rail-
road engine; to France belongs the
honor of producing the automobile.
Shall the United States of America al

chine that will fly, and thus confer one
of the greatest benefits on mankind?
