GLAD TO SEE FEBRUARY GO.
Millions Mourn for the Month Thai
Had Five Pay Days.

Il, 3, 10, ~, 20!
No, this is not a football signal.
it's just the pay day record of the
month which breathed its last at
midnight Saturday. And it's Il record
that any month might well be proud
Of.
All together now! Three cheers for
February, 1908. 1t won't happen
again for twenty-eight years, so don't
be stingy with your scream. Think
of the five round trips to the cashier,
and then foot.
IF I've succeeded in pleasing the
common people I've accomplished a
great deal" said departing Febru-
airy. with low moan. when l ar
rived here about month ago l real
lied | had to do something out of the
ordinary to remove that prejudice
against me. With comparatively few
exceptions I have always arrived in
town a day short, and you can't short
weight the people and get away with
it.
you've made great many
friends" said the reporter.
Friends came the reply with a
tinge of sarcasm. bah! While I
was passing out pay days was fool
ish enough to believe all the good
things they said. But now when I'm
about to close my eyes forever my
eyes are open for the first time.
Friends! Ha, ha, and some more!
why, all day long folks who were
loudest in my praise have been rip
ping me off their calendars. Actually,
they can't wait until die. Think
of 1t! And I'm the month that gave
them Washington and Lincoln. Lit
tie do they know that every time they
pull Off one of those sheets they send
another arrow to my heart. But I've
had my fling, and don't want to
leave a crouch to my successor. I'm
glad"
A death rattle completed the optim-
istic expression. Just as the doctors
covered the wasted form with
shroud the door opened softly, and the
first of March entered on tiptoe.
Thirty days filed in behind and stood
with uncovered heads while their
leader solemnly promised to keep the
wind busy on every day but the
seventeenth.

DUE TO A MOTHERS GRIEF
How the Blanche Ferry Sweet Pea
Was Brought to Perfection.

There is an interesting story told
by Paul Kirk In recent issue of the
Housekeeper, concerning the acciden-
tai discovery of the Blanche Ferry
sweet pea. The story is this:
The daughter of farmer in Jeffer-
son county, n. Y, married a quarry
man who neglected her, forcing her
to live starved and miserable exis-
tence in a small home over some lime
stone lodges.
After a while the woman became a
mother, and then death came and
claimed the child. The mother took
the body back TO her own childhood
home-one of the most beautiful in
New York-for burial
When the funeral was over, the
mother, stricken with grief, gathered
from the old farm place a few seeds
OF the old Painted Lady sweet pea
These seeds she carried away with
her to the poor little home by the
stone quarry. There she planted
them.
They fowered, and the mother
saved some OF the seed for another
seasons planting. From year to year,
in this manner. the flowers were per
petuated and the memory of the child
was kept beautiful After Is or 20
years the flowers had undergone a
change-had taken on a new beauty,
as fine as the sorrowing mothers de-
votion. They no longer resembled the
old Painted Lady blossoms. The thin
poor soil, with its large element OF
lime, had dwarfed the vine, but in
compensation had given more abun.
dant flowers. larger and brighter col.
ored.
Mr.. Tracy, of the government de
partment OF agriculture, while looking
after some seed crops in the vicinity.
saw and admired the flowers, learned
their history. secured some OF the
seed, and later sent them out to the
world as the Blanche Ferry sweet
pea
Out OF the sorrow and hardship of
the lonely mother by the quarryside
had come about the development of a
flower OF exquisite beauty, which has
since brought pleasure TO millions and
added beauty to countless homes.

BACHELORS DINNER

The Y. M. C. A. of Honolulu has al
ways observed the time-honored custom
of serving New Year s dinner, open
to any one who cared to drop in, but
owing to the cutting mp of the large
assembly hall into c1assrooms it was de-
cided that such dinner would be inn
possible this year. However, as a great
many members have requested it, the
social committee has decided to serve
dinner at six O'Clock on a much
smaller scale than usual in the social
hall. This dinner is planned especially
for those men who may happen to be
in town on New Years Day and who
lent dinner will be served at so cents
plate, and a program consisting of
music and short speeches is being pre-
pared. A fine time is promised every
one who comes, but as there viii be ac-
commodations for only about fifty it
will be necessary for those who wish to
attend to notify the secretary at once,
who viii prepare souvenir place-cards.
All young men in town, whether they
are members of the Y M. C. A. or not,
who want to have jolly good time on
New Years night, should make it al
point to see the secretary at once and
deposit his four bits.
