HINTS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE.

Milk remains fresh longer in shall
low basin than it would if kept in
deep jug.
To clean a clothes line boil it in
soapsuds containing soda, then rinse
and hang it out to dry.
Baking tins should be washed as
clean as possible with a strong solu-
ton of soda, and then secured with
piece of pumice stone This will keep
them in excellent condition.
Combs soon split if washed. A stih
nail brush is a good thing for clean
ing them After using the brush take
a damp cloth and with it wipe be-
tween each tooth of the comb.
To clean knives easily take fiat
cork, dip it in slightly moistened knife
powder and with it rub up and down
the blade till all stains are removed.
Then wipe with d duster.
When not in use, scrubbing brushes
should be turned bristles downward
Thus the water Will run out of them
and the viii dry. whereas if they are
placed on their backs the water would
soak into the wood and loosen the
bristles
To clean brass excellent results may
be obtained by rubbing first with a
paste made of powdered bathbrick and
paraf1n. and then with bathbrick
alone Another plan, also very success
full, is to use lemon juice and pow

Health Hints.

For unbroken chilblains rubbing
with damp salt is one of the best rem
edies known.
Onions are a tonic for the nerves,
but people will be forever pTejudiced
because of their color
A few grains of coffee burned on not

and drive away any OdOT.
Don't wear bracelets so tight that
they affect the circulation or so loose
that they rub on the wrist joints.
A small onion eaten raw before re-

Hot Chicken Salad.

One tablespoonful of butter. melt,
add one tablespoonful OF -four mixed
with a pinch of salt, little pepper,
cayenne, and if liked celery salt, or for
a change a few drops of onion juice
Use about a cup of milk TO make a
cream. Stir in a beaten egg, then
carefully a cup of chopped chicken
meat. Don't stir much after adding
the meat. Veal is good instead OF
chicken, and lamb can be used. but
cut il into little dice instead OF chop

FOR FINE CANDIES
PROPER WAY TO MAKE FRENCH
FONDANT.
Recipe Given Here, in Respect of Ma
terials and Quantities, Is Intended
for the Beginner at Max
inc Dainties.

As fondant is the foundation for all
the fine French candies. a good work
ing knowledge of how 10 make it is
essential Molasses candy can be
made on a damp day, fOndant never.
The materials needed are the best
granulated sugar for the cream, a
small quantity of confectionery sugar
to be used in the kneading, vegetable
color pastes that can be purchased at
any first-class cOnfectiOner's or made
at home, a little cream OF tartar, and
then the filings, flavOrings, nuts, etc,
that are to be used in connection with
the fondant. For fiavoring the ordt-
nary extracts are used, also maraschinO
and other cordials.
The formula for fondant is always
the same: A pound of graduated
sugar (that is. two ordinary cupfuls),
one cupful hot water, and a half tea
spoonful cream of tartar This is the
easiest quantity to handle for the anna
teur. After a little experience the
quantity can be doubled, as fOndant
can be made and kept on hand. Put
the ingredients into a granite sauce
pan with an extra heavy bottom. and
stir over a slow fire until the sugar Is
dissolved, but not a moment longer.
After it has become a clear sirup stir
ring will cause it to granulate. Heat
rapidly tc the boiling point. wiDing
gently away with a damp cloth any
moisture that appears on the sides OF
the pan. II this drops back into the

PLUMBER BROWNS VAIN
PURSUIT OF WIFE AND CHILD
urned toIin China.

Plumber" Brown, who returned to
his old stamping grounds here on the
Alameda, announces that he is here to
stay and that his creditors in Homo
lulu will receive dollar for dollar for
anything that they have carried on
their books for him during the time
he has been away. 1t will be remem-
bered that Mr.. Brown left this city
very suddenly in pursuit of his wife
and child, whom he has not seen nor
found any trace of since they left Ho-
nolulu. His wanderings have taken
him across the United States, through
the Orient and back and forth across
the Pacific three times since he left
here on the Victoria-bound steamer
three years ago.
After crossing to the Philippines he
thought TO stay there, but found little
in his line in Manila, where the sew
erage and water systems are only now
going in at a cost of seven million
dollars. When the systems are in
there will be something for a plumber
to do, but there is nothing at present.
The Philippines, in fact, Brown thinks,
are good islands for white men to keep
away from, anyhow. He did not waste
his time there altogether, however,
bidding in three old Spanish gunboats,
some of Dewey's prizes, when put UP
at auction by the government. One
of these he turned over to the Atlantic
Gulf company, for a tender, and the
other two he made into junk and sold

OAHU MURDER NEWS
COMES FROM NEW YORK

Does anybody in Honolulu know

isl The police would like to know, for
one A. NJ. Fowler, of Bronx, New York
City, has written the department max
ing inquiries concerning the alleged
death of one Wilbert d. Sleep, whom
the New Yorker says was "beaten to
death in the woods of Helerrffrunter
Metercherperiog, sixty miles north
west of Honolulu, by two men-viz-,
Mcintosh and Ross, whom he claims
are at present in Winnipeg, Canada.
The writer states that the murder was
committed on February 9, 1908.
The police figure that "the woods
of the unpronounceable name, if sixty
miles northwest of Honolulu, would be
somewhere in the Pacific Ocean and to
the westward of Waialua. Sheriff Tau

From Manila he drifted to Singa-
pore, spending five months in that in
teresting place, where there are 49, 900
people and only sixty-five Americans
among them, the local agents of ma
chine and locomotive manufacturers.
Close to Singapore is lahore, city of
gambling joints and pawn shops,
where the Sultan gets tithing from the
Chinese gambler proprietors to sup
port the eight wives if his establish
ment. One of these wives is white
woman.
At the time Mr.. Brown was at Sing
apore the British colony there was in
a ferment over the way the Sultan of
lahore had introduced some ringers
into their exclusive club and skinned
them down to the quarter penny coins
in their clothes. The Britishers tumbled
after they had settled their 1. o. US.
and formally expelled His Royal High
ness from their set.
Mr.. Brown comes here direct from
Rawhide, Nevada, and has little good
to say of the much talked-of mines
of that region. He states that pros
pectors and miners can show assay
samples running into the hundreds OF
thousands of dollars a ton but that
these are only found in pockets, no
lead of any value having been I'M
covered. "The Nevada mines are all
hot air." is his sizing up of the boom

KOCH ON
CONDITIONS At MOLOKA|.

I Bishop Home. whenever a patient with
development of the disease that at
tracted his attention presented itself.
an examination was made and ques-
tons were asked.
The dispensary was visited, and then
the entire party gathered in an office
/ to give DR.. Koch an opportunity to
ask any questions that he desired, as
in this way there would be some one
present who could supply the Informal
ton.
The whole visit to the Settlement
was planned with a view to economic
ing DR.. Koch's time and giving him
opportunity to gain as much Informal
ton regarding the Settlement as he
could. For this reason the people at
the settlement were not appraised be-
forehand of the intended visit. There
was no public gathering of the people
and absolutely no speechmaking. II
was novel experience to the people
of the Settlement. They had never had
a visit of notables and officials be-
fore, not even of committee from the
Legislature without public meeting
and speechmaking.
In driving about the Settlement it
was planned so that DR.. Koch would
be part of the time in company with
one man, DIR. Goodhue. for instance.
or DR.. Holman, or DR.. Brinckerhoff, or
Superintendent Mcveigh. so as to get
the widest range of information pos
sible.
DR.. Koch's visit had three principal
objects. to see if differences of climate.
or race. or conditions, had developed
any peculiarities in the progress or
ravages of the disease or Differentiated
it in any way from the disease as 1t
manifests itself elsewhere, and to learn
the conditions that existed and wheth-
er the lepers were satisfied and con-
tented or not.
After his visit to the Settlement DIR.
Koch approved the following as ex-
pressing what he had to say as the
results of his visit:
1.-THE buildings, general arrange
ments. and equipment compare very
favorably with those existing in the
great leper stations in other parts of
the world.
II consider the patients we'll provid-
ed for in every respect. especially in
treatment and in nourishment.
Il find the type of the disease the
same as that existing in the leper sta
tions of other countries which 1 have
visited.
THE lepers have every reason to be
and contented."
The Hawaiian gazette. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1865-1918, 1908-06-02

Prof. Koch, after his visit to the
Leper Settlement at Molokai and an
examination OF a considerable number
of patients there, expresses the opinion
that the type of the disease. leprosy.
at the Settlement is the same as that
existing in the leper stations of other
countries which he has visited.
The buildings, general arrangements
and equipment of the Molokai Settle
ment compare favorably with those ex-
listing in stations elsewhere.
He considers the patients well pro-
in treatment ana IN nourishment.
The lepers in his opinion have every
reason TO be satisfied and contented.
Prof. Koch. probably the greatest
living bacteriologist, went to the Mo-
lokai Settlement Friday night as the
guest of W. Pfotenhauer, the Imperial
German Consul. Mr.. Pfotenhauer
chartered the steamer he Au Hou es-
pecially for the occasion. His other
guests We're DR.. L. E. Cofer. president
of the Board of Health; DR.. Walter
Brinckerhoff, the head of the Federal
leprosy investigating station, and Mr..
H. Focke.
The Ke Au Hou left here about 10
o'clock Friday night and arrived of
Kalaupapa about $50 yesterday morn
ing. Breakfast was had aboard the
steamer and then the party landed
about 1870 o'clock and were driven di-
rectly to the site of the Federal sta
ton, where the buildings are Begin
ming to make a showing. DR.. Koch
said he did not care to examine the,
building operations to any extent, as
he had already examined the ground
plans and studied the subject.
From the leprosarium the party at
once went to the Baldwin Home for
Boys. Here some time was spent. DR..
Koch examined large number of the
boys and made many inquiries both
of them and of Brother Dutton. ---
From there a visit was made to-
Father Damien's grave, and then the
sula to Kalaupapa and visited the
Bishop Home for Girls. Here, also,
the distinguished scientist examined al
number of the patients, likewise ask
ing questions regarding them.
The next place visited was the Bayl
View Hotel, where a number of pa
tents, many of them in the advanced
stages of the disease, are provided for.
