THE TAX COURT
IS SUSTAINED
Action on Appeal Is Taken by
the Makee Sugar
Company.

In decision fled yesterday the Su-
preme Court sustained the Judgment of
the tax court in the appeal taken from
that tribunal by the Makee Sugar Com.
pany of Kauai. The assessment of the
plantation property for the purposes of
taxation was fixed at 100000 January
1, 1908.
In the course Of the decision the Su.
preme Court says: t'About one half
of the available cane land of this COM
pany was leased from the government,
which leases expired May /, 1907, and
were continued by mutual agreement
up to May 1, 1908, during which time
negotiations in regard to the continual
ton of the use of the land on new
terms were being carried on by the tax
payer and the government. The testi-
mony taken before the tax appeal court
in August, 1908, showed that the
negotiations between the government
and the taxpayer had been broken off
and the land had been returned to the
lessor'
The opinion of the manager Of the
plantation is quoted that with the re-
duced land area the plantation would
not produce more than $500 tons of
sugar and that there would be no profit
at ALL
In concluding it's opinion the Supreme
Court says:
"This court has uniformly held that
it does not reduce or increase the valua-
ton made by tax appeal court which
appears to be fair and just but allows
it to stand unless shown to be erroneous
or based on a wrong theory or INSULT
cient or defective data

MISS CAMPBELL WOULD
ACT AS AN EXECUTOR

A petition was filed yesterday by the
attorney for Muriel Campbell, in which
she asks to be joined as a petitioner
with the Hawaiian Trust Company,
temporary administrators of the estate
of Abigail X. Campbell Parker, in the
probate proceedings.
The petition recites that Tin and by
the last will and testament of said
Abigail K. Campbell Parker, now pend
ing, your petitioner was made one of
the executors of said last will and tes-
lament. -
1t is further stated that the "pe-
titioner is of lawful age and is in
every respect fully qualified to act as
executor of said last will and tesla
ment.'
The Waterhouse Trust Company was
mentioned in yesterdays Advertiser as
the temporary administrators OF the
Parker Estate, instead of the Hawaiian
Trust Company, who have been acting
in that capacity.

A FOOLISH OLD IDEA.

It was once thought that a
medicine was all the more hene-
fetal for having a nasty taste and
smell. We now know that such
an idea is perfect nonsense.
There is no more reason why
medicine should offend the SEN
ses than why food should do SO.
Therefore, one of the greatest
chemical victories Of the past
few years is what we may call
the redemption of cod liver oil.
Everybody knows what a vile
taste and smell this drug has
in its natural state. No wonder
most people declare they would
rather suffer from disease than
take plain cod liver oil, and the
emulsions are as bad, no matter
what may be alleged to the con-
trary. Now it is one of natures
laws that a medicine which dis
gusts the nose and the palate,
and also slckens the stomach, can
have no good effect as a medi-
cine, because the system cries
out to be delivered from it. In
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
the desired miracle is wrought,
and We have the valuable part OF
the oil, without the other. This
effective modern remedy IS pala-
table as honey and contains all
the curative properties of pure
Cod Liver Oil, extracted by
Us from fresh cod ivers, com
b;ned with the Compound Syrup
Of Hypophosphites and the Ex-
tracts of Malt and Wild Cherry.
The palate accepts it as it does
sugar, confectionery or cream.
Taken before meals it goes to the
very secret stronghold Of diges-
tive disorders, and strengthens
the system against Sc-ofula,
Throat and Lung Troubles AID
all diseases due to impurity Of
the blood. DR.. G. G. Shannon, of
Canada, says: q shall continue
It's use with, [ am sure, great ad-
vantage to my patients and salts
faction to myself" It hes al
the virtues of cod liver oil; none
Of its fau@s. Sold by chemists.

A Picture Romance.

It is said that one of the most beau
tiful ladies in French society today
was first revealed to her husband on
the walls Of the salon. It was while
visiting the salon in 1878 that the
youthful Marquis de G. was struck BY
the childish beauty of young girl,
one Of the prominent figures in pic
ture of village fete. Her tumbled
golden locks, her dancing blue eyes
and the freshness and graceful aban-
don Of her figure so fascinated him
that he sought out the artist and learn
ed from him that the little witch"
was the daughter Of a poor peasant
near Avranches, where the picture was
painted. To seek out the peasant and
to make the acquaintance of his fas-
cinating daughter, child Of nine sum-
mers, was soon accomplished, and the
marquis lost his heart even more com
pletely to the real than to TIE pictured
maid. With the fathers s-pproyaI lie
had the girl educated at one OF the
best schools in Paris, and nine gears
later, on her eighteenth birthday. the
maid Of the village fete nlossones

READING In Bed.

"Boys and girls under eighteen
should be strictly forbidden to read in
bed" says the Lancet, on the author
ity Of DR.. Hugo Feilchenfeld of Ber-
lin, who declares that in the case Of
young persons whose eyes are not
fully developed the practice is likely
to induce myopia. While young peo-
pie run the greatest risk, the Lancet
thinks that reading in bed is unde-
sirable for persons of any age and
states that Gin the case Of aged, anx-
ious, worried and bedridden people, to
whom It would seem cruelty to deny
what may perhaps be almost their
only luxury, for fear Of Inducing some
slight error Of refraction, care should
be taken that the light Is sufficiently
brilliant, the eyes being shaded from
It, and that the patient lies on his
back with head and shoulders raised. !"
