1t is authoritively announced
that The northwestern will build a
new and strictly modern passenger
station at Aberdeen. The new loca-
ton is a block south and little
west Of the location of the present
station. For years the Northwcs-
tern has been cndeavoring to secure
a site for a downtown station. but
this has evidently been finally
abandoned, for it is stated the new
structure will be modern and sub
stantial, and in keeping with the
other public buildings of Aberdeen.

a noise that sounds like the Mil

WOULD DELIVER
FISH IN CARTS

A. L. C. Atkinson, attorney for the
Hawaiian Fisheries, Ltd, in letter to
the Board of Health yesterday, asked
that his company be given the privilege
of delivering fish by carts to the homes
of the city. He stated that the FISH
carts would be patterned after the best
meat delivery wagons in use by the
Metropolitan Meat Company, and that
the delivery of the fish would be sani.
tary. The present plan of the com.
pany is to deliver two hours in the
morning and two hours in the after
noon.
All fish that have been on ice are
so marked by the Inspector of the
Board of Health. Fred c. Smith thought
that the proposition was not bad at
all, just so long as stringent rules were
kept in force to compel the distribu-
tion to be sanitary. DR.. Wayson, how.
ever, did not look on the request of
the Japanese fishery company with
much favor, saying that in case the
privilege was granted in this one case,
all the firms of Honolulu would seek
the same, and trouble would be bound
to follow. He was afraid that the fish
pedders would get Independent in the
outskirts of the city, distributing fish

Obesity and win Power.

Obesity is easily cured with the e1-
ercise of the proper care and restraint
on the part of the patient. Without
this, however, the cure is impossible,
and no physician or medicine can be
of any help. The happy-go-lucky dis
positions of fat people, their tendency
to regard their ailment lightly, cause
them to look upon nothing seriously,
to deny themselves nothing. These
characteristics, which generally are
responsible for their ailment, furnish
the greatest obstacles in the way OF
curing them. AS a rule the fat per-
son does just the opposite of what he
ought to do. He eats the very foods
he should avoid, avoids those he
should eat, shuns exertion of every
kind, INDUCES in rest and luxury and
seeks the way of the easiest resist
ance generally.-From Will Power.
