SENSIBLE HOBBY.
WelI-known People Devote Spare
Time to UpbuiIding Health.

Physical culture is getting to nc
more and more of a hobby with many
people. who devote their spare time not
only to upbuiding their own physical
health. but in preaching doctrine of
good health to others.
There is no excuse today for any
person. unless tainted with an incura-
Bile disease. remaining sickly. with the
great advance in medical discoveries
and the growing popularity of physical
culture
In the diseases of digestion and nutri-
ton. for example, an acknowledged
specific treatment has been found in
Mi-o-na. 1t is relied upon as 4 GER
tanty in relieving the worst troubles
of digestion and assimilation, and
making complete cure.
People suffering with headaches.
palpitation, sleeplessness. bad taste in
the mouth. coated tongue. distress
after eating, Specks before the eyes.
nervousness and general debility, and
any other of the many distressing re-
suits of weakened stomach, should
profit by the discovery of Mi-o-na
stomach tablets.
Bowditch, Webster & Co. have seen
so many cures by Mi-o-na of stomach
and general rundown state of health
that they are firm believers in the
power of this remedy to cure practi-
cally every case, and they show this
faith by giving a guarantee with every
50-cent box of Mi-o-na to refund the
money unless it does all that is claimed
Tor it. They take the whole risk, and
Mi-o-na will not cost you penny une
less it cures.

The regular monthly meeting of the
Governor and Council will be held in
the Council chamber Tuesday, COM
mencing at 10 o'clock in the forenoon
and it is expected that the usual
amount OF business will come up for
transaction. Among other matters
which will be taken up is the petit
ton for the pardon of Walter II.
Moore of Wilton, who is serving a life
sentence in the State prison at Thom-
aston for assault and robbery, and on
which petition a hearing was assigned
for the meeting tomorrow.
Moore was convicted of an assault
and robbery of $50 at Wilton, in
Franklin county, the sentence being
imposed under the old statute which
compelled the judge of the supreme
judicial court to administer IL life
sentence i'll case of a conviction for
assault and battery.
AS the statute has since been
changed making the penalty 90 years
imprisonment for q crime of this ma
ture and from the fact that Moore
has served 10 years, the petitioners
claim that clemency should be shown.
A pardon for Moore was denied by
the Governor and Council six years
ago.
Another pardon matter which may
be taken up is that of Thomas Mcln
tosh of Cary plantation, who is sery-
ing three years at Thomaston for an
assault upon his wife, Eunice McIn
tosh. At the last meeting of the ex
ecutive council the hearing ON the
above petition was continued until the
June meeting, but it is under stood
that there is a probability that it may
be taken up at the May meeting in
stead

COUNTERFE|TER CLAIMS
THAT HE IS A VICTIM

The Hawaii Shinpo publishes a story
in regard to the arrest of Horikawa,
on a charge of pushing the queer,
which tends to show that the accused
is the victim of a confidence game
rather than a criminal, although the
Shinpo specifically disclaims any re-
sponsibility for the story, which is told
by his friends. The story is that Ho-
rikawa came to Honolulu from the Ke-
kaha plantation about a month ago,
looking for work in the city. He APP
piled to local Japanese employment
agency and was promised a place, the
manager undertaking to go with him
and see that he secured employment.
Before starting out, however, he de-
manded his fee of $l.25 and ten cents
for car fare. Horikawa handed him
the only coin he had big enough to
cover the charge, a $40 gold piece,
which the employment man took into
a Chinese store and changed, giving
him back $3.50.
The promised job turned out to be a
myth. however, and Horikawa demand
ed back his $l.35, only to be met with
the charge that the gold coin was spu-
rious and that unless he made good the
amount he would be arrested. Fright
ened at the threat he went to his
friends to borrow enough to get back
the coin, but before he could raise the
amount he was placed under arrest.

N()NEN'S WOES
HONOLULU WOMEN ARE FINDING
RELIEF AT LAST.

It does seem that women have more
than fair share of the aches and
pains that afflict humanity: they must
keep up,' must attend to duties in
spite of constantly aching backs, or
headaches. dizzy spells, bearing-down
pains; they must stoop over, when to
stoop means torture. They must walk
and bend and work with racking pains
and many aches fror: kidney ills. Kid
neys cause more suffering than any
other organ of the body. Keep the

and discomfort this entailed on me can
be better imagined than described. 1

difficult for me to attend to them
while oppressed with suffering. The
way in which I found relief eventually
was by using Doan's Backache Kidney
Pills, procured at the Hollister Drug

TENANTS MUST
KEEP COVENANTS
Supreme Court Decides This
in a Case Before 1t
Yesterday.

The Supreme Court yesterday hand
ed down a decision sustaining the Cir
cult Court in its decision in the case
of Ching Tam Shee, executrix under
the will of c. Winam, against William
A. Hall. The defendant several years
ago leased to WinaH4 certain property.
The lease contained the usual covenants
TO keep in repair; to deposit with the
lessor policies of insurance on the
buildings; to pay taxes; and to build
and maintain sidewalks and curbing.
The executrix was appointed April IA,
1908, and three days later summary
proceedings were begun against her in
the District Court kfor the recovery of
the property and on April 81 judg
ment was secured and the executrix
was evicted and the lessor was put in
possession. The bill in equity was
brought to restore the property to the
executrix on the ground that the
breaches of covenant were committed
without the plaintiff s knowledge and
without her fault and with the aquies-
cence and consent of the defendant and
that no damage has accrued TO him that
will not be fully compensated by a
performance of the covenants; that the
defendant waived all breaches by ac-
cepting the rent up to April 20, 1908;
and that unless relief is given it will
work a great hardship on the plaintiff
who will be left homeless and des-
titute. !
The Circuit Court sustained a de-
murrer to the amended bill and the
Supreme Court says it was properly
sustained. The decision as summed up
in the syllabus is as follows:
"In the absence of fraud, accident,
mistake or surprise, equity will not re-
lieve against the forfeiture of lease
for breaches of covenants to repair
and to build and repair side
walks.''
Jurisdiction in Divorce.
Judge Lindsay yesterday filed a de-
cision refusing to take jurisdiction in
the divorce suit of Couta Martello VS..
Antoine Marines Martello. The par
ties last lived together as husband and |
wife at Onomea, which is in another |
judicial circuit, and though the hbelee
fled an answer consenting that the |
Circuit Court of the First Judicial Cir
cult might take jurisdiction and try |
the case, Judge LinuSdy ueciueu thdI |
he had no jurisdiction but what the |
statute confers, and that jurisdiction |
could not be conferred by consent.
Kuu Yamashita has brought suit for |
divorce against her husband, Kinji Va |
for non-support.
An Appeal.
William Savidge, as trustee for the |
estate of Manuel A. Barete, has appeal |
ed from the decision of Judge Lindsay
in his suit against Richard Antoine,
who was partner and executor of the
will of Barete. The suit is to recover
a thousand dollars which it is claimed
Antoine should have accounted for 10
the estate for a leasehold held by the
Edmunds-Act Case.
The trial of Chinese pair on an
Indictment under the Edmunds Act is
going on before Judge Dole. Deputy
United States District Attorney Raw
