it might be more comprehensive to

Extravaganza is sure to come to want,

necessity of good management There
should be no such thing as a mean,

should be employed. The grasping

COFFEE DRINKING
A Doctor Says it Weakens the Heart.

In my opinion" says a we'll known
German physician, mo one can truth
fully say that coffee agrees with him,
as 1t has long since been proven that
caffeine, contained in coffee, is an in
furious, poisonous substance which
weakens and degenerates the heart
muscles.
For this reason the regular use of
coffee. soon or late. causes a condition
OF undernourishment, which leads to
various kinds of organic disease.
Convinced of this fact, have often
sought for some healthful beverage to
use instead Of coffee. At last / found
the thing desired in Postum Having
had occasion to forbid people using
coffee, whose hearts were affected, !
nave recommended Postum as a bev.
erage, since it is free from all injuri-
Gus or exciting substances. l know
this from results in my own family,
and among patients.
Hundreds of persons who now use
Postum in place of coffee, are greatly
benefited thereby" There's Reason"

One to Three at Whist.

The late Senator Hoar was extreme
ly fond of whist, which he played
with remarkable skill.
a friend says that the only time he
ever knew the usually placid and
genial man from Massachusetts, to be
absolutely impatient was when on
one occasion at whist the senator had
an unusually stupid partner. Notwith-
standing this handicap. the pair were
winning right along even against good
players.

one paused behind the senator's chair

THINKS HAWAII
PRETTY GOOD
C. B. Estep Says New Zealand
Is a Greatly 0verrated
Country.

c. B. Estep, a linotype operator vel
known in Honolulu, returned from al
extended visit to Australia and New
Zealand by the s. S Mariana. He will
resume his vocation in this city.
Estep has been working at his trade
wherever he has been and has had
ample opportunity to observe the con-
ditions of life prevailing in the Colo
MES.
He likes Australia on account of its
beautiful climate and prolific soil New
Zealand he considers greatly over
rated country in every respect, there
being little work for the large influx
of laborers and others which is con-
stantly pouring in from Great Britain
and elsewhere.
fThe cost of living in New Zealand
today is higher than anywhere else in
the world,'' said Mr. Estep, last
night eff every man, woman and
child in the country today had 1925 the
sum total wouidn t suffice to pay the
debt.
New Zealand is essentially sheep
and cattle country, yet if every sheep
in the country today was to be sold
for $15 and the result applied to pay
ing the national debt, there wouldn't
be enough money so realized for the |
purpose.
In New Zealand you have to pay
$3.50 for pair of shoes which you |
IAN buy for S. in Honolulu
wages are fairly good, but there
s no distinction between the trades
nan and the navy in the wage scale i
md it costs all man earns for living
expenses.
Zone thing which makes me glad
o be back in Honolulu is the posi-
piity of obtaining good fruit for little
money. In New Zealand peaches cost
DC a pound. Australian grapes cost
sc. pound and the same can be OBJ
aimed in Sydney for &c. a pound. Be-
ore grapes were allowed to be i'm
orted from Australia they cost soc. a
