ing the fire that destroyed 1t and
killed his prize bull Otis had the
misfortune to have his pasture next

Relentless Hose Company, and every
time the hose company put on its
red shirts to run to fire the bull
would snort angrily and Jump the pas

pany. 1t was no uncommon sight to
see the hose company gather at the
sound of the alarm bell and imme-
diately start at full speed in a direc.
ton opposite to the fire, with the bull
in full pursuit Usually the hose
company would climb one or more
trees when the bull neared them, and
the bull. after failing to uproot the
tees, would eat few yards of rub

go home. But the day of the Millin.

mistake of chasing the fire company

The successful visit to this
country of the Irish parliament
airy delegates who are seeking fl
nancial aid to help Ireland win
home rule calls attention to the
great progress in the direction OF
home rule that has been made in
recent years. From the time
that Isaac Butt was the first
champion of the cause, up to the
present time the struggle has
had it's ups and downs, but on
the whole it has been upward.
The great task of convincing
England, the "predominantpart-
ner," that home rule for Ireland
is right in both principal and
policy has been accomplished;
and the goal is now in sight.
The one remaining obstacle is
the house of lords and the i'm
pending drastic reform of that
body will clear the way. Home
rule for Ireland will probably be
followed by home rule all round,

Partial Revision of The Tariff

Dissatisfaction with tariff
schedules and methods of tariff
making is so vociferous that the
politicians are seeking some way
to remove the grounds for CON-
plant.
Both the President and his pre-
decessor have lately approved
the plan for examining each
schedule separately and correct
ing whatever injustice may be
found in it, regardless OF all other
schedules. This plan has been
proposed as way of escapefrom
the log-rolling among the friends
OF different industries which re-
suits in a combination of the
representatives of various inter-
ests for levying the desired duties.
Ii the country and Congress
wish to revise the tariff one
schedule at a time, or one sched-
ule a year, a way will be found to
carry out this desire. But in the
past it has been exceedingly diff
cult, if not impossible, to prevent
a general revision of all the sched-
ules whenever any tariff legisla-
ton has been attempted. At the
time the duty on coal was re-
moved during the coal strike of
1902, without changing the law
in any other way, public senti-
ment was so thoroughly aroused
that Congress refused to admit
any amendments that might
have imperiled the removal of
the coal duty.
The Senate has been known to
tack a general tariff revision bill
on an internal revenue sent to it
by the House. Consequently,
even if the House should adopt a
proposed rule to prevent irrele-

parliament on College Green will
deal with Irish questions.-Ex.

NEW FOREST RESERVE
ESTABLISHED ON OAHU

By a decision of the board of agri-
culture and forestry yesterday in con-
ference with Governor Frear, the home
stead lands of Pupukea and Paumalu
have been set aside as a forest reserve,
Governor Frear, at the end of the con
ference, stating that he would sign the
proclamation so constituting them.
These lands are situated midway be-
tween Waialua and Kahuku on the
northernmost point of Oahu and have
been favorites with the small planters
of Wahiawa who left the latter district
when control of it was assumed by the
big corporations
The homesteads cover triangular
area amounting to about $50 acres In
cluded in the area are three small
water reserves which bring the total
area up to about $50 acres.
Byron o. Clark, Il. X. Ellsworth and
E. c. Winston were all present at the
meeting and spoke in favor of the con.
templated action. There was no oppo.
sition.

A FOOLISH OLD IDEA.

Tt was once thought that a
medicine was all the more bene-
fetal for having a nasty taste and
smell. We now know lhat such
an idea is perfect nonsense.
There is no mora reason why
medicine should offend the sem
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 natare's
laws that a medicine which dis
gusts the nose and the palate,
and also sickens the stomach, can
have no good effect as a rledi-
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 o.
the oil, without tho other. This
affective modern remedy is paIa-
table as honey and contains all
the curative properties of pure
Cod Liver Oil, extracted by
us from fresh cod liyers, COM
