The Oahu Liquor Commission has
about finished the work of starting the
operation of the new law, after a long
series of meetings at which many hard
problems had to be met. In this the
local commission is far ahead of those
of Hawaii and Kauai, though 1t had
more than twice as many applications
to deal with and though the local pro-
blems were far harder to solve than
those in the outer districts. The
starting of new and complicated law
was dIuicult task, but 1t has been well
accomplished. The law is probably
far from perfect as it stands and some
features may be declared void, while
others may be repealed or amended,
but there is every reason to believe
that its general theory is an excellent
one, and that more than a mere begin
ming has been made in the develop
ment of satisfactory regulation of
the liquor traffic.

Tales Worth Telling

DID IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU?
"Will you button my gown, dear?'
the wife says, sweetly, to the hus-
band who stands already attired for
the evening, and who has reminded
her, two or three times, that they
should have started ten minutes ago.
Certainly, my DEAR" he replies,
amiably; and he proceeds to search
clumsily for hooks, and eyes, and but
tons, and button-holes.
Most of these books seem to be
missing" he remarks, after a min
ute.
use pins wherever necessary" she
replies, sweetly.
"Confound these little buttons" he
mutters, a moment later. They won't
stay in the button-holes. 1 wish you
wouldn't take a big breath and pull
them out just when ] have them
right"
Il beg your pardon. DEAR" she re-
plies, still sweetly. Il won't breathe
again"
There they go once more" he cries,
in a tone of evaporation. I've got
to begin all over. Why don't women
have their frocks button in front? If
men wore coats that buttoned up the
back they would be thought crazy.
No reply from the patient and ex-
perienced wife, who is busy fasten-
ing her collar or patting her hair.
IF you won't stand still I'll give it
up" he suddenly exclaims, angrily.
why do you fight?"

time," she says. when mother but
tons me up it does not annoy her

is so patient and deft."
Silence for a minute or two, while
the husband works nervously breath
ing hard, and relieving his rage by
facial contortions.
"Theer-it's DONE" he cries,
Strengthening up and kissing her on
the cheek Forgive me for being
so testy; but really don't understand
why women insist on having gowns
that button up the back"
Five young wives met while call
ing one afternoon Of last week and,
comparing their husbands as young
wives will, they discovered to their
amazement that every one of the five
husbands loses his temper while but
toning his wife's dresses up the back
The conversation, on such occasions
they discovered, approXimates sc

is that the husband sometimes inter
