ENDANGERED LIFE TO SNAP OK.

ENDANGERED LIFE TO SNAP OK.
Ernest Thompson Seton told the
delegates of the Ornithologists at
Philadelphia of a miraculous escape
from muskoX.
He punctured the world famous le-
gend of the pelican which is sup
posed to bite its breast for its hungry
young. Besides this he propounded
the query for future grave considera-
ton, "Why do mosquitoes bite men
and not frogs?" Furthermore he
explained how the caribou get rid of
these pests of the Great North by
creating artificial breezes to blow
them away, natural fly fan in short.
I'VE were at latitude of sixty
five degrees north, in the barren
lands he said of the muskox. Sud
denly the OK came toward us. l said
to my assistant, Mr.. Preble, I'm go
ing out in front of the OK and photo
graph him. My life is in your hands
If he charges me and you miss aim it
will be all over with mel
"'Go ahead was his gruff reply,
as he put the gun to his shoulder.
Il stood in front of the cumber-
some animal and directed my camera
toward him. AS soon as the OK saw
the instrument he charged at me like
mad. By the time my camera clicked
the OK was almost upon me, and Pre-
Bile fired. The aim was true, and, as
| dropped to the ground to avoid the
animals charge, the bullet took ef-
feet, and literally knocked him three
feet from his course. just missing me
and saving my !ife and the came-a.

Once upon time there were gath
cred together dozen women high In
the councils of education. When the
business which occupied them had been
disposed Of, quiet woman asked their
attention to a matter OF her personal
experience q
In the course of her service on n
certain committee 1t became her duty
to visit the rooms of girls dormi-
tory in college. Some alterations
were to be made in the building. As
she went into room after room, she
was startled by the amazing spectacle
which met her at every threshold. To
say that the rooms were In disorder
would convey but faint idea OF the
facts. ,.a ..a
Skirts, shoes. hats, gloves, books
papers, cake, fruit, collars. ties, blouses,
pens, pencils, corsets, stockings, pie
lures, sweaters, handkerchiefs-clean
and soiled-candy, pillows. letters and
curls were few of the articles strewn
on the floors. Closets were even more
cluttered than the rooms. Confusion
was worse cOnfOunded with actual dirt.
Herrick's sweet disorder in the dress"
was here become disorder which did
not commend itself to any of the senses.
What more dire revelations might have
been made by the bureau drawers the
visitor was glad not to learn.
She told her story to the listening
women, and when she ended, it was
greeted with melancholy chorus Of
sympathy. Every woman could verify
some detail of what she had heard by
what she had herself seen.
Modern life and modern education,
they. declared, were thrusting out the
dainty habit Of mind and of hand from
the character of young women. After
an hour of discussion, the woman who
had broached the subject turned to the
wisest, most experienced educator
among them and said, Miss Blank,
what can be done about this?'
There was a moments silence, and
then she answered, Nothing" and the
meeting broke up and the women went
dejectedly away.
Would the mothers of the girls make
the same reply?-Youth's Companion.

In the Home.


. An open fire Is certainly a happy
feature in it. -.-
Chairs that can be sat upon are
more necessary essential than some
housewives think.
In the living room there must be a
softly shaded light placed low for read
ing and sewing.
Readable books and magazines lying
around loose are one of the important
things. t.a4ll s
Stilted suits Of furniture are
good thing to avoid; also loud papers
and highly colored pictures.
A carpet that can be walked on by
the family Is much better than one
preserved for the sacred feet of strang-
ers. .
AS to tobacco smoke and dust--well,
there have been homes with them and
places without them that utterly failed
to be Zones. HEs
Cheerfulness and love and mutual
accommodation as to tastes go further
to make real home than overzealous
spotlessness and everlasting oversight.

Night Terror. Of Children.

This trouble is always to be regard
ed as evidence Of iii health. The con-
ditions producing night terrors In either
children or adults are usually Of all
mentary origin. A simple diet, two
meals day, consisting Of breakfast
and early dinner, at least six hours be-
fore bedtime, with proper amount Of
exercise and not too much study, will
relieve most of those cases. Severe
cases, of couEse, demand particular
treatment, but generally night terrors
mean Indigestion.

LOST FORTY POUNDS
A PREY TO KIDNEY DISEASE.
DoAN'S BACKACHE KIDNEY
PILLS BROUGHT BACK HEALTH
AND STRENGTH.

William H. Walter, Stationary En-
gineer. Chatsworth, ILL.,, U. S. A., says:
About seven years ago I was taken
with a terrible pain in my side and
back which made me cry aloud in
agony. At the same time the urine
was found to be thick, dark, full Of
sediment and painful of passage. At
tacks of this kind followed in rapid
succession. each seeming more severe
than ever. would hardly be out of
bed with one attack before another
seized me. / was racked with pain
day and night, could not sleep or eat.
and to cap the climax, rheumatism
came upon me, contracting the mus
cles and stiffening the joints of my
lower limbs, so that l was bent and
doubled and could not stand erect. /
lost forty pounds of weight, running
down rapidly to one hundred and thir-
ty. My heart was rapid. l seemed
bilious, my food distressed me and ]
awoke every morning with a dry and
parched mouth. 1 doctored faithfully,
but without result, and finally began
using Doan's Backache Kidney Pills
with really wonderful results In a
short time i could feel the tense and
contracted muscles relax. The stiff
ness left my joints, and in about six
weeks / was able to stand erect again
and even to bend a little. You may
be sure 1 kept taking Doan's Back
ache Kidney Pills and in another six
weeks / was sound and well, eating
heartily and gaining strength and
weight. I now tip the scales at two
hundred pounds.
And best of all, though 1t is eigh-
teen months since 1 was cured. I have
not had any return of rheumatism or
kidney trouble, and give all the credit
for my cure to Doan's Backache Kid

WHAT ABOUT THE
BAR ASSOCIATION /?

Editor Advertiser: AS a constant
reader of your valued paper, may L
inquire, what has become of the Ha-
waiian Bar Assoc iationf This is a
question which L now hear frequently
asked every day, and many say that it
is simply Good Liver Is club, preserv-
ing its organization for the purpose Of
having an annual feed. Nobody ex-
poets lawyers to be as blameless as were
those twelve fishermen of Galilee, who
followed the Prince of Peace Under the
palm trees of Palestine, but with the
candidate for County Attorney of Maui
county under indictment for perjury;
with a Circuit Judge of an outlying
circuit, charged with borrowing trust
funds, which were being administered
in his court, upon his personal and un-
secured note; with an attorney in Ho-
nolulu under indictment for assault up
on a woman; with a prominent member
of the Honolulu bar, charged, daily by
pipooj "Abh hOS why NSos
beat, but an unconvicted felon, as well,
the situation naturally gives rise to the
question, whether the Bar Association
owes any duty to the community, and
if so, whether that duty is being per-
formed?
1t may be that lawyers think they
should not move against brother law
yer until he is safely on the "reef,
where he can't strike back. If that
is so, the public ought to know it, so
that they may know just how much
stock should be taken in Bar Associa,
tion endorsements of candidates for
judicial positions.
Very respectfully,

THE LANAI CASE
ABOUT CHRISTMAS

A letter from Attorney General Hem.
enway received by Deputy William L..
Whitney by the America Maru stated
that he expected that the hearing in
the Hawaiian cases before the United
States Supreme Court would begin on
Monday, October 26, and as most of
them were together on the calendar
they would occupy him almost continu.
ously for about three weeks. The Lanai
case he says is farther down on the
calendar and he does not expect it will
be reached much before Christmas. Mr..
Brown who represents McCandless in.
sists on oral argument, and will not
consent to its being submitted on briefs.
Attorney General Hemenway will move
to advance the case on the calendar
but has little hopes of success
The Liliha street property owners
against the Rapid Transit case is also
further down on the calendar and D.
l.. Wilmington will move to advance it.

most effective way Of campaigning

First win over or divide their leader
ship and then the rank and Gle will
be demoralized. OF course all of the
gains that Bryan has made with the
labor organizt tions can not be over

very much Of it will be,
Meanwhile, President Gompers is out
upon the stump fighting like demon.
He is delivering speeches every night
to large audiences and warning the
people against campaign canards and
the statements of labor leaders, who,
from motives that might not entirely
bear the light, are tagging in the war
fare. He is also laundering away in
the Federationist, which is the official
publication of organized labor, and is
supplying material and ideas for the
hundreds of labor papers throughout
the country. The Federation is credit
ed with having splendid organization,
and there is no question but what this
organization is being worked to the ut
most in favor of Mr.. Bryan IS election.

gether to pass upon the Gompers issue,
although considerable number of them
acted earlier in the campaign. Nowhere
are they being asked to endorse Bryan
openly. The requests are put in a more
diplomatic way, simply to endorse and
approve of Mr. Gompers' policies To
date the very great majority of these
central bodies, practically all of them,
in fact, have voted to endorse, and to
that extent the Gompers campaign has
been gaining Roadway. But the Presi-
dent of the Federation is now approach
ing the crisis, for only recently were
the Republican forces massed so pow
erfully against him.
Would Be a Great Labor Victory.
If the organized labor people should
succeed in turning out majority of
their votes for Bryan and elevating him
to the Presidency, it would be the
greatest victory in their history. The
labor leaders would become greater
power than ever in National politics.
They would be in n position to demand
things at the Capitol, of the Senate
and the House, and their demands would
be met
But if Taft is elected, the labor
unions will receive terrible blow, from
which they will hardly recover in a
number of years. The Republican Sen
ate and House would treat them with
more or less Indifference, and at the
White House they would be on terms
of less intimacy than they have enjoyed
with President Roosevelt.
Probably much important history is
