brown woman in full evening dress,
glittering with jewels. sitting at table
with blond men, ceases to cause sur
prise after the first week in the is
lands.
1t is only when an American hus-
band takes his wife to the States that
he is embarrassed.
delightful and true story is told
of a multi-miIlionaire Scotchman who
married a handsome brown native,
and with their very beautiful half
white daughter registered at a hotel
in the States.
After sitting at the table in the
dinfng-room they We're approached by
stately head waiter. who whispered
/ to the gentleman that no coIored
people were allowed in the hotel
The next morning the Scotchman
called all the employees of the hotel
together and informed them that he
had Just purchased the establishments,
and that in the future he would eY-
pect to dine there with his family UNI

There are many cases of cowardIy
American husbands who have gone
back to the States and deserted their
Hawaiian wives, finding permanent
life here unsatisfactory for business
or other reasons. They lacked the
courage to take their brown mates
with them to their native lands and
subject themselves to the discomforts
of tradition
There could be. in fact, very little
happiness for a fu1l-blooded Hawaiian
wife of a white man in any part Of
the United States. 1t would be USE
less TO explain that she came from an
intellectua1 and free race of Polyne-
slams. and that she had been well
reared and we'll educated.
Christian prejudice would find sat-
isfaction in making her life miserable
by slight and insult. Therefore, the
only wise course for any man to pur-
sue who falls in love with a Hawai-
ian girl is to settle permanently in
these islands and make his home
here.
With a beautiful climate, great f.
nancial opportunities Gf he has in
dustry, ambition and intelIect, de-
lightful social life among charming.
cultured and broadminded people,
there is no reason why any young
American with his life at his disposal
should hesitate to make such a decf-
sion and become a permanent resident

In Honolulu one never hears a word
OF ''panics," of hard times or of
failures. No beggars are seen on
| the streets; no evidences of real pow
erty The poverty that stabs the
heart to see is not here.
There are no unemployed sitting
about darking the sun with their I'M
! happy faces. The flower vendors,
selling their national wreaths, 1.-The
| Ieis," so much used for personal or
! namentation in feasts and on voy-
ages, are a picturesque class of ma
tives, squatted at street corners and
waiting at boats and at train exits,
| to supply tourists with their wares.
| But they never importune. There is
| dignity about the Hawaiian which
prevents him from being a beggar in
any degree. These men and women
have flowers to sell, wreaths and
bouquets, and they are glad to sup
ply your needs; but they do not pur-
sue or poster you, If you decline to
purchase, any more than would a New
York merchant if you declined to buy.
Remembering Oriental IdnuS anu
southern Italy, where one has to fly
from street merchants as before a
simeon, Honolulu seems indeed to
merit it's name, THE Paradise of the
Pacific
II is not to be wondered at, after
one has visited this stand that young
American men have found happiness
with native wives. The Hawaiian
girls are almost universally handsome;
they are brown in color (not black;
their eyes and teeth are magnificent;
their hair straight jet black and
often falling below their knees.
Their heads are handsomely form
ed and their expression alert, intel
Iigent and amfabIe; their forms in
youth voluptuous. but heavy and over
stout after youth; their features full,
and nose and upper lip slightly tilted;
their voices extremely sweet
When given an opportunity of edu-
cation and culture. they make charm
ing women. In these islands their
color in no way bars them from the
best social circles They are less
exacting in their demands, financially
and in other ways. than American
girls. and many a white man has
found satisfactory domestic life in the
Hawaiian Islands with his native wife
and their half-white children.
One meets them everywhere in the
fashionable hotels, at smart balls. teas
and other social functions And the

Like a bit of romance comes the
message over the seas from distant
Honolulu, Hawaii Territory, telling of
the remarkable success that a former
Cape Cod boy, who has visited Brock
ton several times during the past TWEEN
ty-fve years, has met with by hard
work and pluck, says the Brockton,
Mass, Enterprise, of a recent date.
A recent edition of the Pacific Com
mercial Advertiser of Honolulu, reach
ing this city, being mailed to a cousin,
tells of the brilliant housewarming of
the new mansion of Governor and Mrs.
Frear as the gubernatorial home for
the next four years, at which society
folk of Hawaii attended.
The wife of this distinguished Off
eiaI is the daughter of Mr. Dilling-
