Wonderful Phraseoioqy.

A party of American tourists who
were comfortably established in a no.
tel in Germany discovered a new con-
tribution to English as she is spoke"
only this time they found 1t in the
written word. The building had been
recently wired for electricity and un-
der the bulbs in each directions
were posted in French, German and
English. The French was irreproach-
able, the German nearly SO. The Eng
lish read as follows: ITO open and
shut the tightening electrical on, is re-
quested to turn to the right hand. On
going to bed it must be closed. Other
wise the tightening must be paid"

SECRE ThRY H.P. WOODS
PROMOTION LETTER
Honolulu, April 2, 1908.

Honolulu, April 2, 1908.
Chairman and Members of the Hawaii
/ Promotion Committee.
Gentlemen: I am pleased to report
that, from the clippings now coming
| t. hand, 1t is evident that the Floral
Parade. held on Washington's Birth
| day, is getting to be widely known as
an annual event with US and Is receiv-
ing many deservedly favorable notices
from the press on the mainland. With
our news bureau in operation, we will
be able to give much wider publicity
to such items of general interest than
they now receive.
In regard to the establishment OF the
Press News Bureau, / would report
that by the Hongkong Maru, scheduled
to sail April 10, a circular letter, en-
closing a copy of our map The Cross
roads of the Pacific" will be sent to
some seven hundred papers, covering
thoroughly the West and Northwest,
including Canada. We will also reach
the larger towns of the Middlewest
and three or four papers in each of the
other States.
To assist the local teachers in their
effort to bring the National Educa-
tional Association to Hawaii we took
UP the matter with some mainland ed
ucators, something over a year ago,
and have their promise to urge Ha-
wall for 1910. We have also suggested
to the Commissioner of Education at
Washington that he use his influence
to bring about the holding of these
conventions in some of our insular
in 1910.
In response to our request, the Mat
son Navigation Company and the Oce-
anic Steamship Company have made q
teachers excursion rate to the Coast,
good for four months, for one hundred
dollars ($100), the Matson Navigation
Company requiring a party of not less
than fifteen to secure the rate, the
Oceanic Steamship Company requiring
a party of not less than fifty.
Every mail brings letters from the
general and travelling passenger agents
of the leading railroads of the United
States, acknowledging. the receipt Of
papers and pamphlets sent them, many
of them expressing the intention of
visiting Hawaii al their earliest con-
venienee and asking for further in
formation.
AS a direct result of our continued
efforts, these wideawake business men
are getting better and better acquaint-
ed with Hawaii.
By the steamer Mariana we received
letters from different parts of Aus
tralia, also from Colombo, Ceylon,
acknowledging receipt of maps, fold
ers, papers, etc., and expressing de-
sire to hear more of Hawaii.
Our wall map, THE Crossroads of
the Pacific" is now displayed in the
office of every steamship company do
ing business on the Pacific. 1t can
also be found in all the tourist agen-
cies throughout Australia and New
Zealand, as well as in Thos. Cook &
Sons offices the world over. Another
edition of thousand could be placed
to good advantage. Respectfully SUBJ
mftted, H. p. WOOD,
Secretary.

A SILLY SAYING.

1T is a common but silly opin>
ion prevailing among a GER
tain class of people that the
worse remedy tastes, smells CIR
hurts, the more effieacious it is.
So says well-known English
physician. He further adds !:
81 For example, let US consider
cod liver oil. AS it is extracted
from the fish this oil is so often
sive to the taste and smell that
many cannot use it at all, nc
matter how badly they need it.
Yet cod liver oil is one of the
most valuable drugs in the world
and it is the greatest pity that
we have not thus far been able
to free it from these peeuliari-
ties which so seriously interfere
with it's usefulness. This was
written years ago; the work of
civilizing and redeeming it has
since been triumphantly accom-
plished; and as a leading in
gredient in the remedy called
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
the oil retains all it's wonderful
curative properties with no bad
smell or taste whatever. It ia
palatable as honey and contains
all the nutritive and curative
properties of Pure Cod Liver
Oil, extracted by us from fresh
cod livers, combined with the
Compound Syrup of Hypophos
phites and Extracts of Malt and
Wild Cherry; creating a medi"
cine of unequaled power for the
diseases most prevalent and fa-
tai among men, women and chill
dren. There is no other remedy
to compare with it. It increa,
ses the digestive power of the
stomach and in Blood Impuri-
ties, Throat and Lung Troubles,
Nervous Dyspepsia and Scrofu-
lous Affections it gives quick
and certain relief and cure. DR..

A tone of regret crept into his voice,

But Chips secret was a most trans

reached Martin three days later, he
recognized it's angular penmanship and
similarity TO the note Aunt Comfort
still treasured. and knew that Chip

II startled him somewhat, however.
for Old Cy's youthful history was IN

some mystery lay beneath this infor-
nation. he told no one, but started
for Riggsville at once.
The tide OF emotion that had unset
the even tenor of Uncle Jud's home
life slowly ebhed away. and ,:saa
sense OF expectancy took its place.
