Here's a Hen with q Half Tin Beak.

Anderson, Ind, Oct. "A chicken
with a half tin .beak f. picking up
corn in the hennery OF ELI Delawter,
i'm this city, and John Snellson, black
smith, is credited with the poultry
surgery. @.A.--
N The hen was Matched with the low
er part OF her beak less than the
length of the upper part. While 1t
was fed on soft food the chicken de-
veloped, but after it began to pick up
it's food like other chickens the half
beak was not sufficient.
Snellson measured the upper part
of the beak and the lower stub. Then
he made a half beak OF tin and wired
it to the lower beak jaw. Since then
it has been getting along about as
well as other chickens.

GOOD OIL PROPERTY.

Do you wish to take some stock in
the safest and best oil proposition ever
offered to the people of Honolulu?
You may have been swindled dozen
times but don't let that deter you from
investing in Lake View Oil Company
No. 2. This property is located about
six miles from the Honolulu Oil Well,
a gusher doing about 1900 barrels
daily; and about a mile from the
world famous king of all kings of oil
wells-Lake View No. 1, flowing 10000
barrels daily and which made the ten
owners millionaires in a few weeks.

matters not whether grocery, drygoods
or hardware, it is a gamble. This also
applies to Lakeview No. Oil Com

1t is a to proposition in our favor;
but when you consider the immense
difference in profits it is $1,000 to 81 in
your favor. Don't you think this is

You know, children and adults must
use the teeth and grind freely to make
them grow strong to preserve them.
Then the act of chewing brings down
the much needed saliva from the gums,
and that helps amazingly in the diges-

from a Republican standpoint none

dangers of trusting such matters in
the hands of Democrats.
For weeks there has been a constant
Democratic chatter throughout the
CITY which echoed among the county
towns and for a time it actually
looked as if the Republicans We're
going to have an unusually close rub
to win. But it all proved to lie cam
paign talk. The past week has shown
where the old line Republicans stand.
