r. P. Rithet 10 Hilo.

It is understood that the W. H..
Marston and the R. P. Rithet have
switched about on their island ports,
the MarstoR coming here and the Rith-
ct going to Hilo in the future. Both
boats have been posted for Honolulu
along the waterfront, but this infor-
nation changes the schedule. The
Rithet will probably be libeled when
she arrives, sailor who was badly
injured while helping unload her hav-
ing announced that he would bring
suit for damages.

Useful Diversions.

There is an affection IN every en-
ployment. and it gives the spirit ener-
gy and keeps the mind intent upon it's
work or study. This, if it be not re-
Taxed. becomes dull, and its earnest
ness flags-as salt that has lost it's
SAVIOR, so that it has no pungency or
relish; or as a Bonded bow, which, I'M
less it be unbent, loses the power that
it derives from it's elasticity. Just SO
the mind, kept from day to day in the
same ideas, without variety. So the
eyes, when they look only at one OBJ
ject or continually upon one color.
For, to look continually at thing
which is black. or continually at red
or at white, destroys the sight. Thus
if one looks continually at the snow
the sight is destroyed. but it is en-
livened if he looks in succession or at
the same time upon many colors.
Every form delights by it's varieties
as a garland of roses of different colors
arranged in beautiful order. Hence it
is that the rainbow is more charming
than the light itself.-Emanuel Swe-
denborg.

SHOE CHEST.

the box get a good sized strong box
and after taking off the lid and one
of the long sides saw off the corners
of the short sides to form the slope for
the top lid. A shelf must now be in
serted, as shown in the sketch. Part
of the lid is replaced and screwed or
nailed into position. The two doors or
flaps open reverse ways, one upward
and one down, the bottom one requir-
ing a catch to fasten into the shelf
when shut. The top door will fall nat
urally into its place and would only
require a handle to lift it by. Now
cover the whole outside with some en-
bossed lincrusta or imitation stamped
leather wall paper, dull gold for
brass or copper one if preferred.
Many beautiful shades can be had in
these papers. A plain white one might
be used and painted an oak color. The
pattern of the paper would then make
a good imitation of carving.

Gibbons Great History of Rome.

Although the idea was conceived
when Gibbon was twenty seven. be
was thirty-one before he set himself
seriously at work to study his mate
rial. At thirtysiX he began the com
position, and he was thirty-nine when.
in February, 1776. the first quarto vol
ume was published The history had
an immediate success. My book he
wrote, was on every table; the his
torian was crowned by the taste or
fashion Of the day." The first edition
was exhausted in few days, a second
was printed 1776, and next year
third. The second and third volumes,
which ended the history of the west
ern empire. were published in 1871,
and seven years later the three vol
umes devoted to- the eastern empire
saw the light. The last sentence of
the work. written in the summer house
at Lausanne, is: 1T was among the
ruins of the capitol that l first con-
ceived the idea of work which has
amused and exercised nearly twenty
years of my life, and which. however
inadequate to my own wishes. l finally
deliver to the curiosity and candor OF
the public. "-Scribner'S Magazine.

A Convenient Zinc Table.

The housekeeper who has once
known the convenience of zinc table
with a ledge around it in her kitchen
will never again be without one, even
if she must improvise it.
Such tables can be bought at COM
paratively small cost. Some of them
have an undershelf, also zinc covered
where hot pans or dishes can be stood
until one has time to wash them.
Any wooden kitchen table with
strong legs can be covered by timer
with sheet of zine for about So. The
metal fits the top of the table and is
turned up all around in an inch high
ledge.
Such a table saves many times it's
cost in preventing breaking. keeping
water from shopping" on the floor and
being easily cleaned.
