The embroidered coat made oflustrous
silk in the blended shades of brilliant
pink and blue, was fastened on the left
side with small gold buttons. The
wide trousers were of blue satin,
and on her naturally small feet she
wore embroidered satin shoes, in the
center of which were large white

heels in the Manchu style. Her
smooth hair was arranged over a

huge black Alsatian bow, while
from the sides emerged two gold
knobs where several bright pink
flowers and jade ornaments were
fastened. Clinging to her side was
her little daughter, small repro

Dear Mr.. Wood Z:

Dear MIR. Wood:
"The beautiful mantel was put
in it's place an hour ago, and its
friendly Aloha ! was the first ut
tered greeting my 73rd birthday
received. 1t is rich in color, rich
in quality and rich in decoration,
therefore it exactly harmonizes
with the taste for such things
which were born in me and which
| have seldom been able to in
dulge to my content. 1t will be
great pleasure to me, daily renew
ed, to have under my eye this
lovely reminder of the loveliest
fleet of islands that lies anchored
in any ocean, and | beg to thank
the committee for providing me
that pleasure.
"Sincerely cours,
IS. L. Clemens"

Seven days to the week are
given:
Six for toll, and one for heaven.
God gave me six for work and
play;
will not steal the seventh away.
Four weeks in every month

Twelve months make up the

And Success and Power, my
strong-limbed sons,
Stand ever to clear my way.
And these be the prudent children,
the careful children and
wise.
There was one and only one with
reckless dream in his
eyes.
He who was one with the wind
O the dawn,
And kin to the wood and the
skies.
Faithful and fond are my children
and they tend me well, in
sooth;
Success and Content and Power,
good proof is mine of their
truth,
But the name of him that lost
was Joy,
Yea, my first-born Joy of Youth.
Well do my children guard me,
jealous of this their right;
Carefully. soberly, ever by day
light and candlelight,
But oh, for my prodigal Joy of
Youth
Somewhere out in the night.

Oakland, November I7.-"No-
body can ever expect to get near
er a paradise where there are att
tonobiles than is Honolulu" is
the opinion Attorney George w.
Reed expresses. Delightful ocean
voyage, free from all sickness;
perfect climate in the island capt.
tai, and wholesome hospitality,
made the trip one of keen delight
throughout for Mr.. Reed, who
took it to get vacation from his
legal work.
Many things impressed the
traveller, but none more than the
delightful climate with which the
city of Honolulu, with more than
10000 inhabitants, IS blessed.
Not only is the climate perfect,
but the civic appointments, such
as telephone, electricity and street
car systems. make the civ Dartic-
ularly ENJOYABLE for The traveller.
The immense possibilities of the
islands, with the tremendous agri-
cultural wealth, convinced Mr..
Reed that the Territory has bril-
liant commercial future before it.
Zone thing that is going to have
a great cumulative effect on the
city and the islands," he said, "is

boy needs to wear any more than cat"
I'll buy his fit out, If you want me
to-" said the captain. "Take him down
to Weeks store right now, If you say
the word"
"Oh, wish you would. You pay Mr..
Weeks. and I'll pay YOU"
They pressed the captain to stay for
dinner, or at least to return for that
meal, but he declined, promising, how
ever, to dine with them before he went
back to his vessel.
Come on, Brad" he said, entering
the dining room; 'you and mes goin'
on cruise DOWNTOWN"
Bradley put on the shabby overcoat
and cap for the last time and walked
down to the back gate and along the
sidewalk with the captain.
Meanwhile Miss Tempy, seated In
the rocker by the window and holding
a fan la each hand. was examining
them with the greatest care.
"Prissy." she said at last il solemn
tone, they're jest exactly alike"
"Yes," said her sister, with stifed
sigh, they're jest alike"

MISS Tempy's present also was fan
precisely like the other except that the
tassel was pink. Miss Prissy's interest
In her sisters gift was intense. but
when 1t was discovered that In no i'm.
portant point were the fans dissimilar
and that neither was better than its
mate both Of the ladies appeared to be
a trife disappointed, although they
tried not to show 1t.
Were so glad you've come, cap'n,"
said Miss Prissy, after the fans were
laid on the table. "We've got so many
things to talk to you about, and we
want to ask your advice. Bradley,
don't you think you'd like to 20 out
into the dinin' room little while?"
The boy, acting upon this decided
hint, went into the dining room, and
Miss Prissy shut the door after him.
"Now, Cap'n Titcomb," she began,
Il s'pose you were awfully surprised to
hear we'd took boy to bring up?
Well, you amt any more surprised
than we are to think we should do such
a thing. But 1t seemed as II we Jest
