Best Stomach

It is an old saying that if the stom-

because so much depends upon the
proper working of the stomach. Many
persons find themselves with a dis

duces dyspepsia or peculiar state of
biliousness.

and constipation you are on the way to a

PRINCELY LIFE OF WEALTHY
OWNER OF TANNING ISLAND

A life of secluded ease is that led
by DR.. Rougier in the South Seas, where
he is king of more than one island and
monarch of all he surveys.
In FIJI, the doctor was only a prince
let, for his holdings there were small,
and those he disposed of recently and
embarked upon the Royal Mail S. S.
Makura for Honolulu, accompanied by
his two devoted servants, Solomon
Island man and woman, whose woody
heads and coal black skins amused
local folk. A few days in Honolulu
disposal, but in that time he spent
money right and left with lavish
hand, and on the night he went aboard
the S. S. Mariana to sail for. Tanning
Island, he left $4,000 in English gold
in the hands of his agent to pay for
the goods he had purchased.
Dr. Rougier has been a thrifty man,
and has accumulated his fortune in the
South Seas, principally from the meat
of the cocoanuts, which, as copra, finds
a market in the United States at al
most the same price as sugar. Sventy-
eight dollars ton for copra, manutac'
tured from tens of thousands of cocoa.
nuts gathered from the great groves of
trees growing in his South Pacific do
mains, is the price the outer world pays
for his product, and it has made him
rich.
When the Greig brothers wanted to
sell their island of Tanning, and the
island was placed on the market in
Sydney, DR.. Rougier was the man who
bought it. The Alfred Gable Com
pany, which operates its wire along the
bed of the Pacific from Victoria to New
Zealand and Australia, maintains a
cable station on Tanning. That sta
tion brings every other steamer of the
Canadian.Pacific Steamship Company to
the island on the down trip, and in. that
way the supplies are obtained. On
those vessels DR.. Rougier will get his
supplies from Honolulu, for he has his
business representative here, S. H. De
The Hawaiian gazette., 1909-08-24

Freest of the firm of De Freest & Co.
The granting of the privilege to the
cable company to maintain its station
on Tanning has procured for DR.. Rou-
gier the right to cable to any part of
the world without cost.
The doctor intends to develop the
copra industry to the limit on both
Tanning and Washington Islands. He
will need good laborers, and he may
secure Chinese direct from China. Such
laborers would have to come through
Honolulu. He believes they are the
most capable laborers obtainable.
Cocoanuts grow rapidly on the South
Pacific islands, and already the copra
trade there is extensive.
When Eben Low Pirate Ben -
returned a few months ago from his
South Sea cruise in the schooner Con-
cord, in which he visited Christmas
steamship Aeon, he brought back about
10000 cocoanuts. A few thousand were
sold, but the bulk remained on his
hands. DR.. Rougier learned of them
and bought them at a very low price.
Having already chartered the schooner
II. G. Wright to carry supplies and a
general cargo, there were no freight
charges to be taken into consideration,
though to take those cocoanuts back
to Tanning Island is almost like car
rying Goals to Newcastle.
When the schooner Wright sailed,
her cargo made one think of Noah IS
Ark. There were cows and sheep and
all manner of live things on board. In
the hold were the doctors food sup
plies, lumber, and comforts of life for
rich exile. He bought shotguns and
thousands of rounds of cartridges here.
When at last the doctor had crammed
the Wright full, and loaded more stuff
aboard the Mariana, he went to the
steamship late at night. At the gate
his faithful servants greeted him and
bore his packages away to the ship.
They had waited in the rain, not car
ing for shelter, for their duty, as they
knew it, was to wait and wait until the
master came-and wait they did.

NJ. H. DE YOUNG
HONORED GUEST
(From Mondays Advertise-.)

NJ H. de Young was entertained at
luncheon at the Motchizuki Club yes
terday noon by the newspaper men of
Honolulu. The affair, which was en-
tirely informal, was given as a token
of esteem on the part of the press of
Honolulu for the dean of the news
paper craft on the Pacific Coast.
Walter G. Smith, editor of the Ad-
vertiser; George Henshall, editor of the
Star, and S. Sheba, editor of the Ha-
wall Shinpo, did the honors on behalf
of the local scribes.
After the first greetings had been ex-
changed, hosts and guest retired to the
dressing room, where they attired
themselves in japanese fashion. Then
the party entered the dining-room
where japanese luncheon was served
on low table, after the custom that
prevails in Nippon.
As each member of Honolulu's news
paper coterie emerged from the dress
ing room, clad in kimono and Japa-
nese shoes, he was greeted with good
natured chatting by his fellow scribes.
The discovery that luncheon must be
eaten from table scant six inches
high, also produced some amusement
and not n little CONSERVATION. But
soon all were seated, and the tempting
but mysterious dishes were inves'
tigated,
Mr.. Sheba, sitting at Mr.. de Young's
right, initiated the distinguished guest
into the mysteries of the chop-stieks,
/ There were no toasts and no formal
! program, general good fellowship hold

RANCHER TALKS
OF VOLCANO

"When I was boy l had an idea
that when passed away there might
be hot place in store for me, but
after l saw the crater of Kilauea in
eruption this week, l came to the con-
clusion that there is no such hot place,
for it must all be burned out by now"
With this philosophical remark,
White Calfee, the ranchman of Sales
vile, Montana, backed up by his friend
Kit Etherington, rancher of Bozeman
Montana, sized up his opinion of the
volcano. Both ranchers returned on
the Mauna Kea Saturday, delighted
with their visit to the Big Island and
particularly to the crater of Kilauea.
owe re glad we came down here, -
said Kit. And just here it is we'll
enough to state that it is difficult to
tell when Kit is talking and when
White, for both look enough alike, and
dress enough alike, to be taken for
twin brothers. They are veterans of
the Rockies, having spent most of
their lives on the cattle ranges and are
now out to see something of the world,
and two shrewder or more pleasant
men have seldom left the ranges.
"You see White and / thought we'd
go to Seattle to see the fair Kit
added. GONE day we heard a fellow
tell the crowd to come in and see the
Highwy-an panorama. We went in and
saw the pictures of Hawaii, and say,
that fellow can talk some. We had
figured on going up to Alaska, but
after he got through talking we de-
cided we wanted to come to Honolulu
and here we are. Why, we had an
idea before that the Highwy-an Islands
was place where the people went
around without any clothes on and ate
dog and all that sort of thing. Well,
we talked to some of those nice young
ladies in the Highwy.an building, and
learned lot about the place, and ate
a lot of pneapples, and then we said
we'd come down here and see how
those pineapples grew
| The two ranchers feel at home in
the Promotion Committee rooms, where
Secretary Wood gives them warm
welcome, and they have made many
friends besides. Mrs. Charles King,
who has just returned from Seattle,
met them on the street and remem-
bered having talked to them in the
Hawaii building. Mrs. King was glad
to meet them here, for she was one
who told them of the islands attrac-
tions. They are yet to take in the
sugar and pineapple plantations, but
there is very little else that they
haven It seen.

HAWA||'S SCORE
IS VERY FAIR
(From Mondays Advertiser.)

In the face of rain squalls, windy
weather and unfavorable conditions
from start to finish, the rifle team of
the First Regiment, Hawaiian Ma
tional Guard, made an aggregate score
of 652 out of a possible 1000 on the
Fort Shafter range yesterday morn
ing, competing against a similar team
from the Washington State National
Guard signal corps, which shot over
range at Seattle about the same time.
Sergt. f. b. Blanchard made the high
est score for the 200, 600 and 10O0-yard
ranges, making lis, closely followed
by Captain T. P. Cummins with III,
Captain NJ. NJ. johnson, ia; Corporal
NJ. V. Fernandez, l02, and Sergeant
II. II. Williams, 100. The two latter
men had never before participated in
contest The total scores are above
those of the Hawaiian rifle team at
Camp Perry last year.
Thirty.five is an expert score for
the 1000 yards, and Blanchard made
3s. His 600.yard score of Al was very
good. Both Blanchard and johnson,
VIM aie dhune lhe SApcft iiheineh
of the regiment, began their firing in
the face of heavy rain squalls, which
was discouraging.
Captain O. j. Whitehead was cap
