Much to This Tramp.

A certain lady, noted for her kind
heart and open hand. was approached
not long ago by u nan who, with
tragic air. began:
"A man. madam, is often forced by
the whip of hunger to many things

and so 1t Is with me at this time. In.
less, madam, In the name of pity, you
give me assistance, ! will be COM

There is real pleasure in chewing
the best tobacco grown-where the
best tobacco grows-in the famous
Piedmont Country.
Only choice selections of this
well-matured and thoroughly cured
tobacco is used in making
SCHNAPPS. That's why SCHNh2PS
and others Of the Reynolds brands,
as shown by the Internal Revenue
statistics for a fiscal year, made the
wonderful growth of six and one
quarter million pounds, or a net
gain of one-third Of the entire
increased consumption of chewing
and smoking tobaccos in the United
States.
Evidently, chewers cannot resist
the flavor and they cheer SCHNAPPS
because SCHNAPPS cheers them
more than any other chewing to-
bacco, and every man that chews
SCHNAPPS passes the good thing
along-one chewer makes other

States where SCHNAPPS tobacco
was first sold than there are in the
States where SCHNAPPS has not
vet been offered to the trade.
SCHNAPPS is like a cup of fine
Java coffee, sweetened just enough
to bring out it's natural, stimulating
qualities. SCHNAPPS plcases all
classes of chewers: the rich, be-
cause they do not find chew that
really pleases them better at any
price; the poor, because it is more
economical than the large 1Oc. or
15c. plugs and they get their mon
ey's worth of the real snappy, slim
ulating flavor so appreciated by to-
bacco lovers. All limitations con-
tain much more sweetening than
SCHNAPPS. They are made that
way to hide poor tobacco improp-
erly cured.

many years under leases and was not

the leases are now about to expire il

in the past.
A notice appeared in the last issue
Of the Maui News requesting all par
ties holding leases to meet with the
representatives of the company for a
conference.
1t is the desire to have all prospec-
tive residents of New KahuIui present.

Indispensable as a medicine but IS also
a useful article of diet, and may be

If to lose no time in putting forth

CIRCLE CHARTS
FOR SEAMEN
Copies to Be Exhibited Shortly
in the Harb0r Masters
Sanctum.

Section Director William 3. Stock
man of the L. s. Weather Bureau is
in receipt of some splendid great cir
Gle sailing charts of the North Pacific,
South Pacific, North Atlantic, South
Atlantic and Indian oceans. for the use
of the cooperating marine observers of
the e. S. Weather Bureau.
Director Stoekman will shortly place
these interesting charts on exhibition
In the office of the Honolulu harbor-
master, Captain Fuller, in the customs
building on Fort street. Marine OBJ
servers, who wish to secure copies of
any one of these charts, can apply to
the department at Washington, but 1t
is clearly understood that such charts
are supplied only in return for valuable
meteorological information.
These charts are not issued as gen
era1 sailing charts but as simple
means of finding course and distance
at any time in great circle sailing.
A straight line between any two
points on these charts represents a
portion of great circle and is there
fore the shortest possible track line be-
tween them. By noting the ATTITUDES
and Iongitudes of a number Of the
points of the track line it can readily
be transferred to Mereator s chart.
Briefly, these charts are projections
conforming to the circle of the earth
and are so arranged with explanations,
examples. keys and diagrams that
navigator may readily ascertain his
course and distance, by occasional OBJ
servations, by the great circle routes
and so take the short cuts. -
Director Stockman also plans an ex-
hibition of meteorological instruments
used aboard ship. He awaits from
Washington a new chronometer which,
secured in an obIong box and made
fast TO a beam athwartships. will be
better protected than the chronometers
now in use

LOCAL SEISMOGRAMs
OF GREAT VIBRATIONS

Two photographs of local seismo-
graphic records, in the possession of
Director w. b. Stockman of the Wealth
er Bureau, tell of recent great earth
quakes recorded though not necessarily
felt here. one that of the disastrous
disturbance in Mexico, April "A, and
the other of unknown whereabouts.
These photographs, seismograms-
were given Director Stockman by Seis-
mographer Wallace in charge of the
Sisal Observation Station. The big
Mexican earthquake was noted by the
seismograph at Sisal on April Il, at
about a. m, vibrations. continuing
heavily until about 9:35 a. m, and
again between 1925 and 1O:40, approx
mately.
On April Is, the first anniversary Of
the San Francisco shake, the Sisal in
strument noted very heavy seismic dis
turbances at about IL a. m. and be
tween 1850 and 2:3O p. m. 1t is not
known where the vibrations recorded
on that day occurred. They may have
been caused by some submarine move
ment The seismogram bears eloquent
testimony to the force of the dis
turbaDce.
