Suddenly the orchestra stopped,

rang out: by George, that's a good

"Our son, two years old, was afflicted
with a rash. After he suffered with
the trouble several weeks / took him

rash ran together and made large
blisters. The little fellow didn't want
to do anything but scratch and we had
to wrap his hands up to keep him
from tearing the flesh open till the
blood would run. The itching was in
tense. The skin on his back became
hard and rough like the bark of a
tree. He suffered intensely for about
three months. But found remedy
in Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint-
ment. The result was almost mag
ical. That was more than two years
ago and there has not been the slight
est symptom of it since he was cured.

HAWAIIAN PINES
OUR BEST AD
(From Wednesday Advertiser.)

(From Wednesday Advertlser.)
One hundred and eighty thousand
plates of Hawaiian pineapples have
been served in the Hawaii building at
the Seattle fair from the opening day
! until the time w. J. Cooper, represen-
tative of the Promotion Committee, and
publicity man for the Hawaiian exhibit,
| left Seattle for Honolulu. He arrived
in Honolulu yesterday on the Man
churia. In this time between fifteen
hundred and two thousand cases of
canned pineapples were opened in the
Hawaii building. Taking 1900 as a
conservative estimate, with twenty-fou
cans to a case, thirty-six thousand cans
of the luscious product of various pine
apple plantations in the Islands were
opened. Each can supplied about five
plates full and two slices to a plate
were served at ten cents plate to
hungry visitors. AS the fair has been
open for about four months or one
hundred and twenty days this makes
an average of 1900 people per day par
taking of Hawaiian pineapples. But
this is a low average and the daily
consumption would be closer to two
thousand plates. On many days the
receipts were 5000.
Mr.. Cooper regards this relish of the
Hawaiian pineapple its best advertise
ment, for those who ate Hawaiian
pines came from all parts of the coun-
try and he has yet to hear of one who
did not pronounce the pines the best
ever.
Mr.. Cooper impartially giving an
opinion concerning the fair says that
Hawaii's exhibit really made the hit,
although Alaska was considered a very
I interesting one, but the varied attrac-
tions of the building, the Hawaiian
singing boys, the pineapples, the float
ing islands, the beautiful koa furniture
and the moving pictures brought Ha-
waii to the front.
The tanks of Hawaiian fishes were
far and away the finest ever shown on
the Coast and the fish, strange to say,
appear to thrive up there. Few of
them have died. Owing to the posi-
tion of the tanks near the entrance to
the United States building there was
generally blockade at that point and
the guards had to change the route of
entrance so that people could get into
the building. The guards even now
have to request people to move on so
as to break the jam.
AS to the koa furniture in the Ha-
waii building, it has been greatly ad-
mired and it is certain that it could
all be easily sold if the owners agreed
to this plan.

Upon the island Of Maui the Con.
grossmen learned many things relating
to the economic development of the

Wailuku's new courthouse that the SEN

land problem and pass the results on
to Congress for approval, a sentiment
which way at once taken up as the
keynote of what was probably the
strongest, most forcible and practical
address made on Hawaii made by one
of the Congressman. The sentiment
was applauded and it seemed to have
made the right impression upon the
lawmakers.
The visitors reached Maui first by

Any man who deliberately buys his

Mail order houses don't help to pay

They don't buy your produce of you
They don't buy your live stock or

They don't spend their money ON

They don t extend you credit when
you need it.
They don't do any of these tn ngs

In fact they don't care a cent for you
or yours.
And yet good many good people
charmed by pretty pictures and bril-

and do it under the false impression
that they are bensiitting themselves.
