The impossible.

1t is impossible for any drug to digest
food without the aid of the stomach
Man cannot do Natures work, he can

that they have remedy that will digest
food without the aid of the stomach,
thereby allowing the stomach to lay idle
and rest, are claiming the impossible.

be given with the sole purpose of aiding
nature and enabling the stomach to do

 'I am delighted to see you, my dear professor. Your visits are rare. I SUD- pose you want something"
 You are right, Mir Minister I've heard that you have determined to :ound lectures on mineralogy at the Sorbonne."
 'I have determined-I have deter mined? I beg your pardon, but you seem to regard me as an absolute monarch. The Sorbonne asks for d lecture association, the higher council is favorably disposed and I ratify their decision"
 'Of course, MT. Minister, of courset You are an old liberal What interests me is that the association is founded"
 Have you man to recommend?"
 Yes, Mir Minister, a most deserv- ing man, Charles BonniQuet"
 Your son-in-law?"
 Yes, my son-in-law.'
 T have heard that young man men, toned, but, not to deceive you, NJ Musgravius, his nomination is impos- sible."
 What do you say, Mir. Minister? Has anybody prejudiced you against Bonniquet?"
 No, nobody has prejudiced me-

 'I do not disputes his merits"
 Well, then. what is it?"
 You have a right to ask that, and to be frank with you, NJ. Musgravius, the Sorbonhe it is not that we do not consider him fitted for the position We have a more important reason"
 What is it?'
 Must I tell you? It is becauae he your son-in-law.'
 Because he is my son-in-law?"

 There are other similar instances, Mir Minister"

The MusgraviuS
 Family
By PAUL GLE SIO

Copyright, by Short Stories Co.,, Ltd)
 The science of mineralogy is regard ed as the special domain of the Mus gravius family. Georges Musgravius, the founder of the dynasty, has occu- pied for thirty consecutive years the chair established for him in the Col lege de France His eldest son. Jean Musgravius, is professor of mineral Ogy at the museum, his son Henri is chief lecturer on mineralogy at the normal school, Pierre Donor. first son in-law, is professor of mineralogy at the Sorbonne, lastly, Charles Bonni- quet, second son-in-law, less fortunate than the others, is titulary of lecture association in the faculty of Toulouse. Here he teaches mineralogy, like everybody else distantly or closely connected with the Musgravius fam fly.
 This daughter left behind in the provinces is the great grief of Madam Musgravius. She can see her only three times a year-at New Year, at Easter and during the long vacations, so when it became well established fact that they might depend on the creation at the Sorbonne of q miner alogical lecture association, Madam Musgravius never doubted that the place would be reserved for Charles Bonniquet. However. as one must leave no stone unturned, she made her husband put on his frock-coat, tied white cravat around his neck and, after giving him instructions, sent him 10 the minister to plead his cause, or rather, his son-in-law's.
 The minister, who had been expect ing this visit for several days, had had tine to prepare to meet the solici- tations of the old savant.
 He had u candidate of his own, who was favorite of his and whom he in- tendSd to impose on Musgravius him self

tism, commit E positive injustice ly nominating an unw orthy person"
 An unworthy person? Do you be- leve, as some people assert, that here are no mineralogists out of the dusgravius family?"
 T don't say that. Charles was my 'upil before he was my son-in-law."
 Well, well, The man I shall nom. nate was your pupil, too, and to cut he matter short, had better tell you tt once that his name is Paul Grand can of the normal school"
 Paul Grandjean?"
 Yes, he has just submitted a bril- iant thesis. Am I not right"
 Yes, Mir. Minister, he has some ex- :ellent letters"
 He is very young"
 He will have only the longer time Q do honor to French erudition. Now acknowledge, Musgravius. that not aking your son into consideration. I lave made good selection
 "Ah, what blow this will be to my xife!"
 Pray tell her that none can regret t more than I do, but cannot make he appointment to suit Madam Mus gravius." Charles has a right to it. But since Fou say that it is impossible l must submit, but don't you think that you Iwe him some compensation?"
 'Is he not an associate of the Academy?"
 He has been at Toulouse six years. He has taken his degree of doctor; he Is thirty-five and he is only principal ecturer. Couldn't you make him pro- 'essor? There is no chair of mineral ,gy at Toulouse-found one. You do not want me to tell my wife that I have done absolutely nothing? You certainly owe me that much"
 "I see that you are a wise man, M. Musgravius. I promise to do what I can for you"
 What you can. That is very Fague'
 q shall have to consult the higher council"
 "oh. MT. Minister, if you only wouldl"
 "Oh, very well, you may depend on me-"
 That settles it. May I tell my wife?"
 Yes, have given you my word and you may trust me. M. Bonniquet shall be appointed titulary."
 The minister rose as if to bring the interview to an end.
 Rather surprised that M Musgra- vius had been so easy to satisfy. he congratulated himself that he had not paid too dear for his triumph. He held put his hand to the old ssvant:
 T hope that you are not offended, NJ. Musgravius?"
 Not at all! Not at all, MT. Ministerl You have made an excellent choice, and then my wife will be consoled, for Paul Grandjesn is engaged to be mar ried to our third daughter"

RACE SOON WILL BE EXTINCT
Hairy Ainus, Original Japsnese, Are Disappearing Before Spread of
 Civilization.

Few know that the original Japan csc were the Ainu race, a race which is fast becoming extinct Rev John Batchelor. a missionary whose life work has been among these curious people, recounts some of his interest ing experiences among them, the Lon don Daily News says.
 They are a simple race of people, very docile and manageable. During his g years among them he did not experience the least perverseness from them.
 Their religion is one of nature wor- ship, the bear being one of their prin- cipal fetishes. The animal is special ly reared and trained, almost every hut containing a bear-pit in which a bear is kept. Their life is extremely primitive. The dug-out boat, the huts. and their crude methods of tilling the land are similar to those of the say age mid-African people. Though the stature of the men averages only about five feet, they are sturdily built. and with their flowing boards possess certain patriarchal dignity that re- Ouc Ol lnc NtlSH UT
 The women adopt the peculiar fash ion of cultivating trim mpstaches. They are also addicted to the habit of elaborately tattooing their bodies. Their food, which mostly consists of rice obtained by barter from the Jap anese, also includes whatever the hunt may bring forth. That they are not too fastidious in regard to their eatables is shown by an amusing story told by MT. Batchelor.
 "On one occasion," he says, when crossing one of the small streams by the means of bridge which is com posed of plank, I fell into the water Luckily, a small inn was near at hand. and I went there to get my clothes dried. and in the meanwhile ordered something to eat. After finishing the repast l said to the small boy who had served me: That was 8 very nice woodcock I had for my dinner That was not woodcock,' said the boy, it was a chicken Surely not said MT. Batchelor. you don't kill chickens as young as that, do you?' No, sir, said the boy, the bird was not killed. it died yesterday"

H|LO BREAKWATER
MATTER AGAIN UP

-The Hilo Board of Trade has now
appealed to the Merchants Assoc'a-
ton and the Chamber of Comerce of
Honolulu, in regard to the Hilo break
water work, covered by the recent ap-
preparation of 100000.
This all refers to the disagreement
between Contractor Metzger and Ma
jor Winslow in regard othe most
effective pan of carrying on the work
"a matter which was threshed out
by the Merchants Association pretty
thoroughly last week.
Major Winslow's plan is to use tie
100000 already appropriated for the
substructure, preliminary to the su'
perstructure, leaving the latter to
come later. The Hilo Board of Trade
opposes this plan, and, in the minds
of some local people, will thereby
hang up the next appropriation ol
$780, 900 for the continuance OF the
work.
1t is not likely that either of the
commercial bodies will consider the
matter further, or, at any rate, this
week.

ON TRAIL OF
MURDERERS

Deputy County Attorney Milverton
and Chief of Detectives McDuffie, with
the aid of a Chinese interpreter, at
tempted yesterday to elicit informa-
tion from Sing Moon and All Mon as
to their knowledge of the murder of
Chun Ton at Kahuku last Tuesday
night.
The men were put through strenu-
GUS cross-examination by the officers
present, but the information that they
gave was of such nature as to con-
vince their questioners that they
were telling far from the truth. SO
far not clue has been received that
would implicate any one in the bru-
tai assault that ended in murder.
Both Moon and Mon, the officers think
are probably in league with the other
three Kahuku Chinese who are being
held for investigation and it is doubt
full if anything tangible will be OBJ
tained from them when they are exa'
mined tomorrow morning.
McDuffie feels certain that the whole
story has been gone over carefully by
the five celestials VINO are suspected
of knowing more about Tons death
than they want to state.

.BURCHFIELD CASE
now BEING HEARD

The naval court ordered by Admi-
raj G. P. Rees to try Lieutenant Will
liam L. Burchfield on charges result
ing from the civil arrest of the de-
fendant few days ago, convened this
morning at the Marine barracks, the
following officers being on the court:
Captain Mark, U. S. M. c., presi.
dent; Captains Lowe, Rotards and
Ramsay, U. S. M. c.; Paymaster
Hornberger, U. S. N; Lieutenant Kill
gore, U. S. M. c., and Doctor Lane,
U. S. N. Lieutenant Willis, judge ad-
vocate.
1t is understood that the charges
brought in the specifications are not
as serious as was first supposed, and
it is doubtful if the defendant will re-
ceive any more than a reprimand from
his superior officers if found guilty.
A number of witnesses to the al
legged affair at Waikiki were subpoe-
naed yesterday by Deputy United
States Marshal Bruins and they will
lie called to the stand today to testify
in the case that has caused so much
interest in local military circles.
Attorney Claudius Mcbride will re.
present Lieutenant Burchfield in the
proceedings. 1t is expected that the
case win last several days.

The count of votes in yesterdays
plebiscite showed such an overwhelm-
ing sentiment in favor Of the present
liquor law that a detailed analysis of
the result is really unnecessary. Ex-
cept in few precincts of each cleo
ton district, the stand-patters carried
every precinct by large majorities.
Whatever the causes, the vote was
about as conclusive as it is possible
for ballots to make anything.
The immense success of the present
law advocates was undoubtedly due to
their superb scheme of organization
and the clock-like precision with
which it was carried out. Never in
regular election, with all the machin-
cry of powerful parties in action, has
a campaign been worked so methodi-
cally and with such sweeping results.
In contrast with the energy and
judgment displayed by the antis, the
inertia, the lack of push and interest,
and failure to connect at any hand
made the campaign of the prohibition
lists equally notable-although in a
different way.
However, it is too late to account
for" things. The facts speak for
themselves.
It is understood to be the intention
of the liquor interests to stand pat on
their achievement. Their victory con-
sists in preserving the status quo.
What the prohibitionists may do it is
impossible at this time to say. Ac-
cording to some of the leaders seen
this morning. there will probably be
no disposition to press the issue any
further this year, the liquor question
having no part in the approaching
general campaign in the islands.
AS a matter of pure fairness, it
must be stated that the liqquor inter
ests handled their end of the election
on Oahu in a clean manner They
hustled voters to the polls, using auto
mobiles in plenty with which to do
so-and the campaign was a costly
proposition to them All these things
have been done by every political
party before, however, and are re
garded as legitimate and fair. There
was a very happy absence of drunk
enness on election day, any reports o
free tooze dealt out by the saloon
keepers or anyone else during elec
