Serrao building, at the corner of
Shipman and Bridge street, is cracked
slightly on both frontages. The bot
tied pickles, sauces, jams and other
things fell in a mass in the Serrao and
Turner groceries, a beautiful blend of
sweets and sours pouring out as soon as
the doors were opened. Glassware and
bottles in Serrao Is, Demosthenes' and
other places went from bar to floor, the
liquid stocks in pantries and Wholesale
houses also blending with the broken
glass. There was much cleaning up to
be done except at the Peacock whole
sale house, where Austin has his goods
wired in and consequently lost only one
bottle of sake. But the Peacock block
was not so fortunate, the four corners
on the Bridge street side of the Hio
Bank windows are Clipped off, though
nothing touched them. There is a crack
in the plaster in the bank several feet
long and several inches wide, which
also shows in the County Attorneys
office on the other side of the wall. In
the sitting room upstairs and in the hall
there was, here and there, light sprin-
king of plaster ON the floor, and the
big water cooler went off it's base. At

suffered most. Soap fell to the floor
in barber shops, window in the Inter
Island Office was smashed, two windows
in the Herald Office were broken and
one press was moved five inches out of
plumb. The top of the little shoe shop
next door was about three inches out
of place, overhanging on the sidewalk,
and it has since been moved back into
position. The Hilo drug store lost a
couple of bottles, everything there. be-
ing wired, and there was no damage at
Kennedy's jewelry store, not even a
piece of cut glass cracked.
1t was near Kalapana that three
houses, occupied by Hawaiians, fell to
the ground At the Hawaiian Mahog-
any camp, Superintendent Sam John
son was thrown from his bed. He i'm
mediately rushed to the mill, where he
found all the lamps upset and extin-
guished, but no damage done. AT Wal.
mea, Charlie Hall landed on the floor
after retiring early. At the planta-
tions the mill machinery is being care
fully examined, and from all parts Of
the island the reports come of more or
less severity in the shake and of more
or less damage The private houses
seem to have suffered the most, and the
loss from broken furniture and glass
ware must mount up to many thousands
of dollars in all parts of the island.

Combs Made of Old Shoes.

A mountain of old boots and shoes,
indescribabiy ugly, indescribably filthy,

BRIDGE Whist.

At least 60 per cent of the game Of
bridge lies in the make. A poor player
loses tricks and often the game and
rubber by his play, but so many hands
occur in which there is really no play
that such losses are comparatively I'M
important compared with the havoc
wrought by an injudicious maker, for
constantly his decision is invoked when
the safety Of the game or its success
lies in his judgment Of the value Of
his hand. To choose between hearts
Oh diamonds and no trumps. to select
clubs rather than spades, to know
when a five card suit is safe and
when n of four cards should be
chosen, above all to keep an unrelaX-
ing attention upon the state of the
score, with its shifting demands-all
these are the sterling qualities Of a
good maker. Once sensible that you
are lacking in any such respect you
will find your game appreciably
strengthened by attention and study

The Victorian English.

The England which spoke the lam
guage which was already dying in the
eighteen-siXties was before all things
a world of the country. The sights and
sounds of nature played a far greater
part in the lives of the mass Of the
people than they do today. This is re-
iected. for instance, in the way in
which birds and animals were spoken
of and the names given them. l have
myself once or twice heard old people
in the country speak of the hen as
Dame Partlet." One is familiar with
the phrase from books. Of course-it is
Chaucer'S "Pertolette"-but once or
twice as a child l actually heard it. L
suppose it would be impossible to hear
it anywhere now.-London Outlook.

years. Three years ago I was told by
a physician that 1 had Bright's dis
ease of the kidneys. 1 have treated
constantly for this trouble since, with
out results. After reading the article
1 have mentioned, 1 purchased some
of this man Cooper's medicine. 1 have
been astounded by what it has done
for me. 1 was relieved to some extent
within "a hours. Today my health is
better than for five years, and so far
as l can tell, my kidney trouble has
disappeared.
my wife, who had stomach trouble
for some time, tried the preparation
after noting it's action in my case,
and her improvement is fully as mark
ed as mine. She now eats heartily
three times a day without any distress
whatsoever. Her nervousness has also
left her. I certainly believe this mans
success is fully justified, as he IN
doubtedly has a wonderful medicine"

Gines to all who wish to know Of them.

One of the most interesting state
ments made recently concerning the
much discussed Cooper theory, that
has spread over the country during the
past year, is made by e. H. Lambert,
a retired business man, whose home is
at lis Francis Street, Everett, Mass.
MI. Lambert has this to say in con-
nection with Cooper and his medi-
cines: "Some time ago I read an ar
ticle about this man Cooper, in which
he claimed that stomach trouble was
directly responsible for most i'll health.
He went on to say that, although his
medicine did nothing but get the stom-
ach in sound condition, it wonld, in
many cases, remov kidney and liver
trouble and various other ailments.
He argued from this that the stomach
was the main cause of sickness, and
stated that the success he has had
with his medicines was due entirely
to this fact.
81 am now fully convinced that this
theory is correct, and believe Cooper
has a really remarkable medicine,
judging from my own experience.

The Demure Brown Maiden In Her

The Japanese college girl entertained
the fudge party with oriental remi-

"On every holiday" she said, 1.-The
Japanese maiden must rise and have
her toilet finished before the sun looks
over Fujiyama, our sacred mountain.
"And what a toilet! The long, coarse
black tresses are washed, cOmbed and
creased till the head shines like Il
knob of polished black marble. The
cheeks are rOuged a fine pink. The
throat, neck and bosom are powdered,
but at the nape of the neck there are
left three lines of the original brown
skin, in accordance with the rules of
Japanese cosmetic art.

lengthens her eyebrows. She reddens
her lips with cherry paste, adding a
gilt diamond to the center of the pout-
ing lower lip. She puts on eight fresh
garments, and she ties her obi, or great
sash, in a symbolical knot. Her socks
she doesn't wear stockings-are very
white and pure, and her clogs are
lacquered till they shine like a silk hat.
"Now she is ready to set out. She
fills her silk tobacco pouch, thrusts her
pipe in her girdle, puts six paper hand
kerchiefs up her wide sleeve and sal
lies forth, turning her toes in and way

THE HUMAN TONGUE.
Eloquent Even When 1t Does Not Ar
ticuIate a Word.

IlCuidCe a WOTO'
It is never necessary for the tongue
to talk in order to tell that you are i'll
or the nature of your illness. The
tongue of the dumb is quite as elo-
quent when viewed by an experienced
physician as the tongue of the most
/ LAXATIVE person.
1t is a wonderful organ and should
be studied by all parents, not only on
their own account, but on account
Of their offspring. 1t aids in mastica-
ton of food. in drinking, in sucking, in
articulation, and contains in its mu-
cous membrane the peripheral organs
of taste. There are doctors who will
spend half an hour feeling Of your
pulse and listening to your heart beats.
There are others who command,
''Stick out your tongue" One glance
at your tongue will to them tell the
tale.
Tremulousness of the tongue when
it is protruded is a positive sign Of
various V diseases. But by far
the commonest of this tremu-
l~ousness is an excessive indulgence in
alcohol. There is an old rule about
looking into a mans eye to tell if he
be q habitual usher. 1t often fails.
Drink in some men eXcites the lachry-
NAL glands, causing the eye to appear
Watery. But all of us know men who
have watery eyes. yet never touch
liquor. But the best ana E.a"i test is

A ROYAL DENTIST.
The Story of a Tooth Pulling by Peter
the Great.

The Story of a Tooth Pulling by Peter
the Great.
Peter the Great particularly delight
ed in drawing teeth, and he strictly
enjoined his servants to send for him
when anything Of that sort was to be
done. One day his favorite valet de
chambre seemed very melancholy. The
czar asked him what was the matter.
ooh, your majesty" said the man,
my wife is suffering the greatest ag-
ony from toothache, and she obstinate
ly refuses to have the tooth taken out"
eff that is all" said Peter, eve will
soon cure it. Take me to her at once"
When they arrived the woman de-
clared that she was not suffering at
all; there was nothing the matter with
her. y
"That is the way she talks, your
majesty" said the valet. "She is suf-
fering tortures."
Hold her head and hands," said the
car. Il will have it out in a minute"
And he instantly pulled out the indi-
Gated tooth with great deXterity, amid
profuse thanks from the husband.
What was Peters indignation to dis
cover a little later that his valet had
used him as an eXecutiOner to punish
his wife, who had never had al IN
sound tooth in her head.-Argonaut.

EIuency of Speech,

The common fluency of speech in
many men and most women is owing
to a scarcity of matter and a scarcity
of words, for whoever is a master of
language and hath a mind full of ideas
will be apt in speaking to hesitate up
on the choice of both, whereas COM
mon speakers have only n set Of
ideas and set of words to clothe
them in. and these are always ready
at the mouth. so people come faster
out of church when it is almost empty
than when a crowd is at the door,
