MANKIND
THoUGHTFULNEss IN
SENDING VALENTINE

I know that among my readers are
many little girls-for have heard
from some of them, SOME l know per-
s0nally and a few mothers have told
me of others-and I want each little
girl to send a valentine TO some little
girl who is not likely to get one. Pos
sibly in your school is child who
never has pretty clothes or dainty rib
bons. These little girls always feel
lonely IN the school room where there
are so many happy children who seem
TO have everything" I mention this
because school teachers all over the
land give permission to pupils to slip
little heart messages to their class
mates and I have seen little heads fall
on the desk and seen little girls cry
with disappointment when there were
no cards for them. SO think Of some
little girl, get a pretty card. put your
/ name on it If you want to, and send
/ it to her. If she is not in the school
room so you can put it in her school
book. then send it by mail. II won't
cost much and I know it will make
the little girl happy. I know a little
girl who slipped all of her pretty valen-
! tines into lonely girls book one year
and when she went home empty-hand-
/ ed. with no cards TO show, but a pretty
story TO tell. her mother folded her M
[ in her arms and said: You dear
sweet child. / am so glad you did it,
! And that mother kiss was more APP
preciated than a thousand valentines

II is an oDen secret among costu-

amplitude. while over it is long tunic

RICE IS
COSTLY

The price Of Hawaiian rice has ad-
vanced considerably of late and from
the present indications a still further
rise may be expected. The new crop
is two months away and the demand
for Hawaiian rice from the Coast is
very strong. Local rice is selling at
$25, with the japanese product at
from $3.50 to $40. At the time OF
the Chinese New Year Japanese rice
slumped in this city, as a number OF
Chinese merchants threw considerable
on the market that they might have
spending money for the holidays.
Complete recovery from this situation
has been effected, however.

BIG JUMP.

In the near future the par value
of the stock of the Hawaiian CONNER
cial & Sugar company will be changed
from its present value of 500 to S25.
This will give the small investors
better chance to gc, In and should in
crease the activity Of the stock con
siderably. One of the results of this
action, which has been rumored on
the street for some days past, has beeu
to send the stock up rapidly. This
morning the stock opened at S109.5O
and then jumped in a few sales to
$llO.5O and wound up strong at $11l.5O,
l53 shares changing hands at this fig.
ure.
The rumOr was also spread in re-
gard to Hawaiian Commercial that
when the change in par was made the
stock would probably be declared full
y paid up. This is without foun-
dation, for the stock being of a COM
pany organized under the laws of Cali
fornia is always assessable which
would make the declaring of its paid
up a fruitless move. The bonds of
the company are redeemabe this year.
