Quite the most pronouncedly new
feature of the new cotton and linen

A Little Color.

The newest white dresses shown in
the shops have some touch of color in
embroidery or lace, but the all-ovcr
embroidery coats trimmed with lace
are pure white. Linen suits for the
summer will show cuffs and collars of
a contrasting color Pale blue, layen,

advantage on white linen suits.

Embroidered Waistceats.

One of the most telling features OF
dress Is the waistcoat, which is a
very gay affair this spring. In Paris
they make the little waistcoat Of gayly
lowered cretonne. The front Is en-
tirely of the cretonne, while the
back is perfectly plain. A tiny row Of
white buttons reaches from the smart
cravat to the belt. Half a dozen OF

A study Of the eyes Of the lower animals,
of birds, is likely to throw light
upon the biology and pathology of the hu-
man visual apparatus. In other words, the
practical ophthalmologist studies the eyes
of birds only to better understand the care
and treatment Of the eyes Of man. In
birds we have the highest type Of vision. The
very existence of every bird depends upon
good eyesight with which to escape its enc
mics and to obtain food. Some mammals,
fishes. reptiles, and amphibia get through
life fairly we'll without eyes, but there are
no blind bird families.

In France the caste of all the nobility
has ceased to exist. The revolution beheaded
them, banished them, tore in pieces their
parchments and letters patent, destroyed
and burned their castles, appropriated their
estates and thoroughly abolished them.
The emigrantS who returned a quarter
of a century after the deluge were mere
fl.emories-ghosts, spooks, apparltions; they
had lost their reality. Napoleon sought to
re-establish nobility. He could create
titles, but not an aristocracy. Even the
titles have become worthless. A flavor Of

WHAT HE SAW
At KILAUEA
P. o. Box 594.

Mr.. c. l.. La Rue of Sacramento,
California, who has travelled extern
sively around the world, returned from
Hawaii by the S. s. Mauna Loa Tues
day of this week, in an interview he
said
Yes, | have just been to the vol
cano; was it worth while? Well! !
should think SO; 1t was worth gong
around the world to see; l would not
have missed it for any consideration;
it is spectacular performance which
cannot be described; it is so awfully
fascinating that one can hardly leave
it,; if my business would have permit
ted, | would have remained there a
week. The wonder to me is that your
Honolulu people do not make more Of
it; they can't realize the extent of the
present activity; l understand that
hundreds of people went up to see the
flow of 1907, and that it was not a bit
more attractive than Kilauea is at the
present time"
Everybody, returns from the vol
cano with the same enthusiasm and
yet Honolulu has not awakened to the
fact that a great eruption is taking
place within twenty-four hours travel
of her gates.

CAUSE CELEBRE AGAIN IN COURT
The trial of the Bierce VS.. Hutchins
case, which has been before the local
courts in one way and another for
long time, was commenced before
Judge De Bolt this morning. The en-
tire forenoon was spent without the
completion of jury, as both sides
were very searching in their examin-
alton of the members of the venire to
eliminate danger of prejudice. The
case is being tried in Judge Lindsay's
courtroom, which is much larger and
cooler than that of Judge De Bolt.
This case has been the subject of
decisions in both the United States
and the Territorial Supreme Court. II
was the occasion in fact of having the
Organic Act amended by Congress so
as to make appeals in Territorial cases
to Washington where property of more
than $4,000 was at state allowable,
