A rough sea has been kicked up out
side the harbor Of Honolulu this morn.
Ing which to considerable extent has
retarded the movements of shipping
at this port.
Easterly winds approaching to the
intensity of a gale prevailing on Sun.
day afternoon and evening caused
strong swells which dashed against
the breakwater formed by the reef
and rendered travel by any of the
smaller launches or other craft ex-
tremely perilous.
The Togo kisen Kaisha liner
American Maru arrived of the port
early this morning after about fifty
days steaming from various South
American ports of call. This vessel
brings shipment Of fifteen hundred
tons of fertilizer consigned to H..
Hackfeld and Company. At noon to-
day the America Maru was still of
the harbor limits. the Federal quar-
antine launch being unable to proceed
outside because of the state Of the
weather.

little vessel outside the channel with

The quarantine authorities were re.
luctant to permit the America Maru
to steam through the channel and

nothing wrong could be detected.

GOOD WORK OF
COUNTERfEI1ERS

There are either counterfeiters at
work In these islands, or else bad
coin Is being dumped here from the
mainland or from Oriental ports.
Last Tuesday c. Hustace, Jr., of the
Bank of Hawaii, while counting over
a pile Of ten dollar pieces. discovered
one that did not appear to have a
familiar touch Of realness about It.
II felt light In comparison to the
ether coins he was handling. when
rang II emitted brassy tone. Be-
ing too busy at the time to pay very
serious attention t. It, he laid 1t
away in a drawer until after the
Christmas rush was over. This
morning he sent It Wichman & Co..
On Fort street. with a note asking
that firm to subject It to thorough
test.

to have been done locally. An Inn

brought down from the nearby hills

this is being rapidly cleared away by

8. Angus. This was the fun-mak
Ing table. 1t was indeed a sight to
see these two kind-hearted ladies
surrounded by scores of children and
converting pretty little Chinese girls
into fearsome looking monsters;
cute little Hawaiian children into
clowns, and winsome tots of all ma
tionalities into bearded old men.
The boys were not forgotten, as
G. G.. L'Hommedieu had pocket
knives by the gross on his table, and
the faces of these little fellows were
wreathed in smiles of Joy when their
outstreached hands clasped a treas.
ure that every boy loves. Handker-
chiefs by the hundreds, many with
fancy borders. were on the fourth
table. These were for the girls. It
required the greatest dexterity on
the part of Mrs. @. w. r. King, Mrs.
James Guild and Mrs. NJ. II. Webb to
keep the long line OF girls moving.
At the last table were miscellaneous
! toys, such as spades and buckets,
kites. clock work toys and even aero
planes. These were In charge of J.
X. Clark and U. +. Lemon. In addi-
ton to all these, an extra table had
to be reQuisitioned for the oranges
with which each little child was sup
piled. These were in the hands OF
Mrs. c. s. McLaren, Mrs. Walter
Hoffman,. s. Benson and DR.. Mon
sarrat,
Helping all these good people
were a number OF gentlemen, who
spared no efforts to make things run
smoothly. Their names are as fol-
lows: &C. w. II. King. r. o. Mathe-
son, c. II. Crane, Il. Dekum. L. 8,
CONFESS. C. ID. Rice, o. F.. Heine and
Alexander May. with coats OF
and shirt sleeves rolled up. they
proved of incstimabIe value in keep
ing the tables replenished and form
ing the children into line.

noticed among the crowd of onlook-

Although DIR. TAFT Butler Is Asso-

a word about a book of which DR..
Butler Is one of the authors-and we
shall say just what we should say if

Positively and unequivocally then,
let us say. "A Practical Arithmetic"
by DIR. and Mrs. f. l.. Stevens and DR..
TAFT Butler, just published by Charles

In our opinion, the most useful text
book we have ever seen-the most
valuable book for the counry schools
ever written.
We do not mean to say that there
are not other textbooks the study
OF which would help the farmer child
as much. but we do mean to say that
there Is not textbook i'm English to-
day which could not be wiped out of
existence with less loss to the schools

book OF Stevens & Buffers. Let any
other textbook drop out and there
are other textbooks so near like it
that the loss would hardly be felt, but
there Is absolutely nothing to take the
place Of this practical Arithmetic" ="
There is nothing like it in print.

Is Woman a Servant?

I'm the main, the position of woman
is curiously like that OF the servant in
the house." says Inez Haynes Gilmore
in Success Magazine" "a servant
with good wages and a generous al
lowance Of afternoons and evenings
out servant carefully nursed when
she Is i'll and attended by the masters
own physician, servant who is sure
always Of generous tips, when there
is extra work, and of a carefully sine
cured old age. Like a servant, how
ever, 1t is to her interest to spy on the
master, to discover his weaknesses and
to play upon them. In some respects
it is a pleasant position, although it is
always an uncertain one. For, from
her birth to her death, her welfare
depends not on herself, but on a man;
her father or brother or guardian
first, her husband second, her son
last. Luck always controls her des-
tiny. Though the wheel of chance
may set her in a pleasant place today,
there is always the dread on her of a
weeks notice, the possibility of the
crowded vista of the employment
agency tomorrow.
Her duties, ranging over a limited
arc of human endeavor, made for a
cheap versatility rather than, as in
the case of the men, for the develop
ment of special gifts. Her working
hours and her wages are arbitrarily
fixed by men. Her habits are settled
by men. Her intellectual convictions
are doled out to her by men. She has
never, until this generation, been per-
mitted to cultivate her mind. AS her
chief control of man is through his
senses, she thinks almost entirely with
her emotions"
