MEMORANDUM
Concerning the Military Defense of Ho
nolulu, Sandwich Islands.

Under the present circumstances OF
the Sandwich Islands, it appears to NE
that it would only be mourning un-
necessary expense to erect Notifications
to defend the town and harbor of Ho-
nolulu against foreign enemy. 1t Is
nevertheless extremely desirable IN my
opinion for the future benefit of the
place that suitable sites for field bat
teries and land forts should be selected
at once and reserved IN the hands OF
the Crown and that the town shall be
laid out so that sites shall never be
encroached upon but shall always re-
main avaible for the defense of the
town as it hereafter may become neces-
sary. This has been much neglected IN
some OF the British colonies and the in
furious consequences of the neglect IS
now being felt in some, which it IS now
wished Is tortify. IN all large towns
lately formed in the British Colonies
this has been more attended to. Sites
for all kinds of public purposes and
military as well a civil have been duly
selected and reserved.
In selecting sites for military pur-
poses the principal object to be con
sdertd is the defense Of the harbor
and after that the security OF the
King magazines and arms, ammuni-
ton and money

not in the least Objectionable.
Every nation has its characteristic
back, each differing from the other i'll
contour and tints. The back of the
classic Venus de Medici is wonderfully
shapely, but too heavy, in comparison
with the standard of the new figure Of
today.
The back must be properly proper
toned to the size of the body. with the
shoulders wider than the hips, a rule
reversed with the old Greeks and Ro-
mans, who admired large. heavy hips.
II must be straight and the shoulder

smooth and evenly covered with firm
white flesh. says the writer in the
Philadelphia Inquirer.
Flabbiness or solid rolls of flesh
seen In middie-aged women who are
feshy detract immeasurably from the
beauty of the back. Prominent shout
err blades are rot to be tolerated. for
they at once ruin the shape of the
back. Sometimes these may be made
less prominent by covering them with
muscle and flesh, but as a rule no ma
terial change can be made.
