Marry When You Are Readx.

Take a pair that has passed Spoony
island. Such people a love. Be
cause there is a trademark on senti-
ment that has been knocked about is
no reason why 1t should be sent into
an undiscovered country from which
there is no return. Should a pair
OF this classification linger and wait
after the engagement or marry as loon
as the girl can get her gown made?
II a woman who has stopped counting
her birthdays can't guess - guess is
the word. for in this business nobody
ever knows-what the man has In him
the man who has come near enough to
her life to ask her to become his wife
it is not likely that she ever will
know. More so with the man. Marry
The game of waiting for something
better has made more old maids thar
can be crowded between New York
and San Francisco.
Marry In haste, repent at leisure, is
one of the oldest signboards on the
road of life. There are no statistics
In the CULVER of Cupid. Maybe some
logician can prove otherwise, but ii is
a safe shot that it is better to marry
than not to marry at all. TITS better
to have loved or to think you have
loved than not to have thought at all.
There Is a school of fictionists that
keep harping on that old string that

brand of the article it won't do 1t now.
There is not a very close connection
between commerciallsm and Cupid's

of business of the age In which we
are living has this motto on his desk,
'Do 1t Now" The rule that won't
figure out the same whichever way
you place it is not worth following.

Of Ghosts

Many people are afraid of ghosts. Few people
are afraid of germs. Yet the ghost is a fancy and
the germ is a fact. If the germ could be magnifed
to a size equal to its terrors it would appear more
terrible than any fre-breathine dragon. Germs
can't be avoided. They are in the air we breathe,
the water we drink.
The germ can only prosper when the condition
of the system gives it free scope to establish it
self and develop. When there is a deficiency of
vital force, languor, restlessness, a sallow cheek,
a hollow eve, when the appetite is poor and the

WILL INSTALL
HIGH-L|FT PUMP
And kaimuki Reservoir Is to
Be Constructed Very
Soon.
CAMPBELL CALLS FOR BIDS
New Artesian Wells to Be Bored
at the Beretania
Station.

The proposed new Kaimuli reser-
v0ir is at last to be built.
The high-lift pump that for many
years has been lying idle because of
a lack of funds to put it in place
where it would be any good is at last
to be installed.
Two new artesian wells, of about
600 feet depth, are to be bored at the
Beretania pumping station.
These three important announce
ments were made late last night by
Supt. Marston Campbell. Though they
have been hoped for, they come unex-
pectedly, but are none the less well
come for that. Superintendent Camp
bell states that he has called for bids
for the three projects, and if the bids
to be received are reasonable and
within the means at the disposal of
the department, the work will be COM
menced in a very short time, proba-
bly, considerably before the end of the
year.
For years Kaimuki has been crying
for water, and as the number of resi-
dents in that section of the city has
increased, the cry has swelled in vol
ume. But there has appeared no wav
to give them water, for legislatures
have refused consistently to appropri9
ate funds for the work, and governors
have refused to allow the money to
be spent out of loan fund.
But now Kaimuki is to have water,
for the much needed reservoir is to be
constructed. The construction of this
public utility will in time largely pay
for itself, for the old reservoir leaks
to such an extent that the money
value of the lost water is very con-
siderable
And the installation of the high-lift
pump and the boring of the two new
artesian wells will go far toward rem
edying the present lamentable short
age of water throughout certain sec
tions of the city.
These proposed extensions of the
present waterworks system are to be
paid for out of the revenues of the
water and sewer systems. Marston
Campbell estimates=that by the end of
the year there will be surplus from
these sources of about $4,000. The
revenues for next year will also be-
come available at the same time, so
he figures that by the time any money
for the new projects is needed, it will
be on hand.
The revenues from the water and
sewer rates for this wear to date have
been $4,000, and Mr.. Campbell esti-
mates that by January l the collec-
tions will reach $4,000, while the total
expenditures will not be much in ex-
cess of $4,000. The systems are,
therefore, more than paying for them
selves.
The high-lift pump was bought so
long ago that most people have for
gotten when it was. But all these
years it has been lying idle. 1t now
remains to see what its actual work
ing value is.
