a foregone conclusion that he who

advertising method than any ordin-

papers with 10000 subscribers"

Over in England, says the Mime

bill or a tax law budget. England
Is now struggling with her budget.
ID The head of the government finaa-
cial department is man named
Lloyd-George. He has prepared Z
budget that has raised as much Of a
rumpus as the Payne-Aldrich bill did
here.
Only it works the other way.
The working people are given fair
chance. and the rich are taxed each
according to his wealth. --
England has few hundred great
land owners-mostly lords and dukes
and things like that-and the rest Of
the people pay rent. And all the taxes
are shifted by the landowners to the
tenants.
Lloyd-George wants to cure that by
a heavier tax on incomes.

No man is so busy that he. hasn't

The truth is more apt to suffer from
lack of circulation than a lie.

some people have porous plaster
beaten to a FRAGILE.

"A .rribut. u th. Catholics.

Mr.. W. n. stead the famous Lon

efforts in the cause Of social purity
Lecturing on this subject recently at
Edinburg, he let fall some remarks
which We think must have surprised
many Of his hearers. HE HIMSELF
he said, was Protestant, and he pre-
sumed most of those present were
Protestants; but there was no blink
ing the fact that IL they took Pro-
testant family and Catholic family
and put them into, London slum, they
would find that three or four years
afterward half OF the Protestant fam
lily had gone to the bad. while every
member OF the Catholic family had
retained his or her virtue"
What tribute, from an able and
well-known Protestant newspaper man
this is. 1t makes one proud to be a
Catholic. Mr.. Stead went on to say
that it Is the same with Catholics ir
Ireland: no matter what their circum-
stances are, they are virtuous. Or
this point. and perhaps on this point
only, does the testimony of Protestant
travellers in ireland agree. Il was

Lloyd-George would stop this ~
taxingNthe "unearned increment" That
is, he would tax idle land on basis
of what it might produce if it were
not held in idleness by idle owners.
The result has been dreadful row
among the rich and noble" classes.
They say Lloyd-George is social
list or perhaps an anarchist. They say
that his scheme Of taxation could only
be proper in case of war and if the
nations life were in peril.
But he replies that it is war budget
and that the nations life is in peril
when its people are kept out of work
and its lands lie idle.
He said in one speech:
This is war budget! 1t is bud :
get for waging implacable warfare
against poverty, and 1 cannot help
hoping that before this generation has
passed away we shall have made Il
great advance towards the good time
when poverty, with the wretchedness
and squalor and human degradation
which always follow in it's camp, will DO

country as the wolves which once in

The British House Of Commons has

of 1.-The Baby of the House."
He Is Earl Winterton, and he has,
besides his title. some estates which

The noble earl was u years old
when he was first elected to the house.
He has been there 1--WE years. He
started fine row the other day, but
to- appreciate 1t, the incident can best
be read as 1t was reported in staid

lmmodest Eashions.

Rev. Henry A. Brann, pastor of st.
Agnes church, New York city, in re-
cent sermon, said Of the prevailing
immodesty in dress:
"Who makes the fashions?" he
asked. ut used to be the kings and
queens at court, but now they are
made by paid inventors or by f1nan
cial syndicate, often without brains,
and usually without taste. The proof
is the extraordinary costumes that are
invented and worn by men and wo-
men supposed to- be sane. The mob
is asinine! Money is behind the
change of fashions and it's naonstrous
vulgarities and indecencies. 1t is
usually Plutus who makes the change.
and not good sense, nor good taste.
The most sensible women, and, there
fore, the most beautiful, are the Ital-
ian and Irish peasants. They seldom
wear hats. Yet, behold them! beauti-
full hair, healthy compilations, strong,
white teeth, broad shoulders, rounded
forms and dainty feet uncramped and
uncovered. They need no pedicurc.
Yet these beauties are the most moral
and God-fearing women in the world.
There is no divorce among them and
no indecency in dress. They are con-
adent Of their husbands love- because
their loneliness Is natural. One can
not attain beauty by methods that de-
form, or gowns that display. A wo-
man can keep away from ugliness only
by being moral and sane. Fashions
are for fools, and the beautiful woman
ia she who wears her wisdom mod
estly. She is lovely when her sisters
have grown weakened and gray In the
struggle to vie with her calm beauty

THE MERCANTILE LICENSE.
Honolulu. April 9, 1909.

Honolulu, April 9, 1909.
Editor Advertiser: The mercantile
trust license bin. another fragrant and
vicious example of class legislation,
should not be permitted to pass either
house. 1t is monstrous that small
iohher who is not rich enough to carry
$4,000 worth of stock should be COM
PEELED TO take out q $3.50 annual Ii
cense. while the rich merchants, who
are better able to afford it, get off
with 500 license fee. Why make it
more difficult for the small trader and
broker TO make living in this com
munitys He pays his income and the
property tax and the Zoe. tonnage tax,
and it is outrageous that on the top
of this he should be called on to take
out $3.50 per annum license, simply
because he is unable, or does not con-
slider it necessary. to carry stock to
the amount of $4,000. Is the $4,000
to be carried for only one day, or has
he to stop selling his wares when his
stock gets below the hard and fast
margins
Such legislation viii not stand the
tests of the courts, and the interstate
commerce laws protect agents selling
their goods in any State or Territory
in the Union. I am sure, however,
that no such proposed law will be APP
proved by either house. Our Repre-
sentatives have the sense of fair play
sufficiently developed not to make
such law possible.

STOPS ANY ITCHING
Doan's Ointment Cures Eczema and
Itching Piles. Australia People
Recommend It.

One application of Doan's Ointment
stops any itching. Short treatment
cures eczema, itching piles, salt rheum
any skin eruption or skin itching. It
is the cheapest remedy to use, because
SO little of it is required TO bring relief
and cure. Here is testimony to
prove it:
William Preston, 6s Argyle Street,
st. Kilda, Australia, says: g For eonsid-
cradle time I was troubled with eczema
on my limbs and the itching was espe-
eially annoying at night. Doan s Oint-
ment quickly allayed the irritation. 7
can highly recommend this preparation,
knowing it to be one of great merit .
Doan s Backache Kidney Pills are
sold by all druggists and storekeepers
at 50 cents per box (six boxes $2.50)
or will be mailed on receipt of price by
the HOLSTER Drug Co., Honolulu, whole
sale agents for the Hawaiian Islands.
Remember the name, Doan IS, and
take no substitute.
