Once on the country roads, with a
village boy for pilot, the huge ma
chine made splendid time, and in less

WISE WORDS.

A soft answer never has sting
in it.
self-esteem does not develop self
reliance.
Courage is simply the conquest of
our fears.
knowledge is power only so far as
it is practiced.
Kicking ceases to help when it be-
comes habit.
Self-depreciation soon ceases if it
be not contradicted.
You can complete good work, but
you can never end it.
Conscience is simply our sense of
moral social responsibility.
= No man bears his burden better by
adding your blame to it.
Life is pretty sure to be tragedy
to those who take it only as a play.
The far-off vision comes half way
to those who followsit faithfully.
Many think they are going forward
bravely because they fear to go back.
It's a poor kind of piety that seeks
all the pleasures and lodges the
pains.

Blouse or Shirt Waist.

The simple blouse that allows Ell
fective use Of buttons is one greatly
IN demand this season, and this mod
ell with its wide box pleat is excep-
tionally desirable. In this instance it
is made from one of the new fancy
cotton crepes, but it will be found adj
mirably well adapted to linen and
madras and to all wasting materials
The wide box pfeat and the plain
allow unusually good opportunity for
the display of hand embroidery, and
embroidery on linen and materials
of the sort will make notable feat
ure of spring and summer waists. The
small, close fitting one-pieee sleeves
finished with three tucks at the lower
edge of each are among the later
models and much liked, but regula-
ton shirt waist sleeves can be substi-
tuted if preferred. In short the
waist will be found an excellent one
for the odd blouse of almost any sea-
sonable material, and also for the en-
tire gown, whether that gown is made
of linen, chambray or something of
the sort or from cashmere or similar
light weight wool.
The waist is made with fronts and
back. There are three tucks in each
front at the shoulders and the closing
is made beneath the wide box pleat
The tucked sleeves are close fitting,
and can be either scanned for their
entire length or closed with buttons
and loops for short distance above

AS tenderly as mothers would
The toys of yesterday,
When little children grow to men
Too oyerwise for play.

Andf yet, since moonblown buds must hide
Before the MONDAY sun,
/ close them wistfully away,
And give the key to none.

If some day in an idle mood
|, searching unaware
Through some closed corner of my heart
Should laugh to find you there.

ignited the woodwork underneath.

SOME DoN'rs FOR PEDESTRIANS.

Don t try to stop an auto, please,
By standing in its way.
You break the radiator thus,
For which you have to pay.
Don t bother, when you hear horn,
To move from off the street.
Keep going on the road, or else,
They'll think you have cold feet.
When, from street-car you alight,
Don t ever look around.
And, if an auto hit you hard,
Be brave and stand your ground.
Remember that the streets were used
For walking long ago.
You can't afford car yourself,
So don t give them show.
Don't ever think a chauffeur man
Has any kind of sense.
So, when perchance you speak to one
Do it in accents tense.
Don't ever think to be polite
But treat him like a toad:
And don t forget to tell him that
Pedestrians own the road.

EXAMINATION
WILL BE FREE
The Marathon Management Ar
ranges for Doctor to Ex-
anime Contestants.

Several inquiries have been made at
the place of entry by prospective con-
testants in the coming Marathon race
as" the ball park, as to the doctor IS GER
tifcate necessary. This matter was
taken up by the management yester-
day afternoon and it was decided as
follows:
DIR. Walters has been appointed of
fetal medical examiner for the Mara
thon race, and all contestants who ap-
ply at his office between the hours of
IL and on Saturday, April II, will
be examined free of charge.
All contestants must present a doe
tors certificate before being allowed
to enter on the day of the race. Those
who are found unfit to compete will
have their entrance fee returned. Tt
is not necessary to have a certificate
from any one doctor, of course. If
runners prefer to 60 to their family
doctor or any local physician, that is
Just as good, but the management has
provided for examination to be made
free for all contestants and the rule
that each runner must present GER
tifcate will be absolutely unbroken,
no matter what the circumstances.
There were five more entries yester-
day afternoon. This makes fifteen in
all, and it looks as If there would be
a much larger list of entries than was
looked for at first The five entries
were w. Johanson, FL. C. Delhi, Frank
Enos, Vincent Comes and Dial Fahy.
The last entry is a notable one, as
Fahy is long distance man of no
mean ability and made great show
ing in the Haleiwa race. He states
that he was not sure until yesterday
as to whether his legs would stand the
route or not, but he went nine miles
round the track at fast clip and
found that he was all to the good
again.
Dial Fahy is one man who may be
relied on to give the present champion
a hard run round the track. He has
superb DfeaTnlnS capacity ana hat
ural grit that keeps him going. Had
his limbs not gone back on him during
the last race, there is no knowing what
he might have done.
Howard Grace, Vincent Comes and
Frank Enos are all well-known ath-
letes here. Each one of them is a
trusty lad on the hard grind over the
roads and they all have a backing of
friends who believe that they will low
er the Champion colors.
The other two entries are unknowns,
but that makes no difference to a
man s running powers, and many of
those who are following the "dope"
state that it will be dark horse who
will win this race.
The grounds have been surveyed al
ready. and the stakes driven, and next
week arrangements will be made for
the roping off of the track. Special
arrangements will be made in the dress
ing rooms for the comfort of contest
ants, and the thousand and one details
that have to be looked after have been
tabulated and are being seen to mi
nutely by the management.

CARNIVAL OF
BOXING TONIGHT

The boxing show at the Orpheum to-
night viii be one of the many round
tryont affairs that have made such a
hit on the Coast recently. There will
be six events, four of them of four
round duration and the other two of
six and eight rounds, respectively.
With the exception of the main event,
or rather the major event, those taking
part are practically unknown here save
Jackson and Wahilani, who will box
Tommy Marlowe six rounds. This I'M
known feature is good one, as the
possibilities for good boxing and hard
milling always appeal to the average
fan wnen his curiosity is aroused by a
new name.
Every one of the twelve men who are
taking part have been taking the mat
ter seriously. Nelson, the big marine
who has won every match he has ap-
peared in here, will be up against Joe
Silva, the Punchbowl Demon. This will
be the last event and will last eight
rounds The second in Importance will
be the six-round go between Tommy
Marlowe of Leilehua and Wahilani.
Marlowe comes here with a reputa-
ton as a good boxer, and states his in
tention to make good in his first ap-
pearanee. He is said to be quite clever
and great hitter. He and WahiIani
viii surely put up a great go, and there
is no doubt that they will both have to
work hard for there is no staying back
in either of them.
The four-round goes will all be in
teresting events, judging by the line of
talk the management has. Special in
terest eenters in the appearance of
jackson, the recent Marathon winner,
who is matched with Sarconi. a hard
hitting bugler from Camp Very.
Correa, who viii box Henley four
rounds; Stanley and Humphriss, who
will go over the same distance, and
Richardson and Plat. also four round
ers, are all comparatively unknown, but
each Is determined to make a good
showing in the tryout, and they all
may be depended on to do the best they
can. The show looks like a good one
and win certainly be worth going to
see at the low prices charged.
