THE END.
SUCCESS TURNS MANY HEADS
Average Man Assumes an Importance
to Which He Actually Is Not
Entitled.

1t is rather a remarkable illustra'
ton of the weakness of our nature that
there should be so many persons
whose heads are completely turned by
attaining even the slightest degree OF
success. Instead Of realizing that the
achievement which won him fame Is
thing Of the past, and therefore buried
in oblivion, except to those nearest to
him, the average man imbibes a good
ly portion of self-satisfaction ana
drinks to his own conceit. His one sue
cess looms very large upon his narrow
horizon, and the temporary adulation
of tickle public magnifies its proper
lions and appears to give him an I'M
portance not really his due. This SELF
Importance is apt to be reflected In all
his further efforts, if indeed 1t does
not forbid effort of any sort, and once
man becomes obsessed with an exag-
gerated idea of his attainments there
is small chance of his ever duplicating
those attachments. 1t Is just here,
however, that so many persons make
the mistake of their lives by believing
that having once established record
for themselves there is no need to
live up to 1t. If they could only forget
their successes, or hide them away In
the dim places of their own minds to
he peeped at only for inspiration, their
self-aggrandizement would give way to
correct valuation of their ability,
which would go far toward helping
them to new accomplishments. A
mans most serious thoughts should be
of what is to come, Of what he Is to do
in the future, not of what is passed or
of what he has already accomplished.

seated TRANQUILITY side by side at the
table. But in spite Of this-damper, he
struggled bravely on with what he had
evidently come with his mind made up
to say. BY this time we, Dearest and l,
had gotten an inkling Of what that was.
He had come, we could see, to warn us
against encouraging the affair be-
tween Brancepeth and Agatha First
the report having at last reached him
in some way or other that 1t was be-
ing carried on more furiously than
ever under our protection, but we had
no doubt, however, that, aside from his
personal interest in putting a stop to
the thing, the man was convinced that
he was acting for Brancepeth's inter-
ests as we'll in interfering, since it
had been true enough that the lad was
so placed that he could not we'll afford
to offend his uncle. Chiltern is fine
fellow, all right, but he's a good deal
older than am, and conservative in
private life as well as public. But in
spite of his tendency to preach, and an
obnoxious habit of expecting everyone
to toe the mark as vigorously as he
does himself, | rather like the old cock.
He's deuced popular with men, certain

borough every election. And then, as
another excuse for what might other

ence in this affair, | rather think he
fancied he was doing Dearest and my.
self a kindness in informing us of the
true inwardness of the situation, that

Nevertheless. could see that the
part of informant was distasteful to his
wife, who, in all probability, had been
the means of delaying execution Of
that duty so long.
These things having become clear to
us. we also perceived that the Hon
Cecil Chiltern could not possibly be
aware of that mornings events, the
elopement Of Miss Simplin and conse
uuent sanction of Brancepeth's uncle
upon his marriage with Agatha First
So, with one voice and mind, we un

Nothing possibly" said the three of
us together. Solicitor Barnes, by the
way, had taken no part in the discus

we spoke too soon. For even as the
words left our mouths | saw Brance-

And so it was. Our friends from the

Tho Power Of Repetition.

1t Is not the occasional ad, no mat
ter how big it is, that builds up bust
ness and keeps 1t going and prosper
ing, but repetition. Mr.. Arthur Bris
bane, the famous editor Of the New
York Evening Journal, says:
IF a thing happens once or twice
that doesn't produce very much effect
upon the beholder. But when 1t hap
pens twice it is four times as power
full in its effect as when 1t happens
once. And when 1t happens three
times it is sixteen times as powerful
as when 1t happens twice-and sc

THE ELEMENT OF HUM

sY GEORGE s. 6ANTA, 3. a.
Advertising is now not the
unexpected but the expec'eo
thing of every legitimate DUST
ness. We do not believe tnSt
a man has a burden OF honest
convictions about the merit OF
his goods if he refuses to say
anything about them. It SIM
ply isn't human nature for a
man to act that way.
And the converse OF tnls
statement is just as true
namely, that we look with sus-
piclon upon business operat-

all suffer a nervous shock, to
meet with a man foolish

friend Of mine, a local furniture
dealer, of a large shoe store In
Chicago which does not adYer-

depends upon it's location, one

thought that he was citing an
example of a store that Is ma

Listen. A man came into

Economy In Modern Way.

Two hundred and more years ago
the trade Of the average man could be
drummed through the tongue, but
with the coming of multiplicity Of
wants, vast numbers of people and
the invention Of movable printing
blocks 1t was inevitable that man
would see the economy Of appealing
to thousands instead Of few, and so
we have modern-day advertising.
But don't misread; advertising may
be seen chiseled on the walls of Pom
peii, and there is no reason to think
that 1t was new in A. D. '79.-H. T.

CATCH ALLEGED
OPIUM VENDORS
Chu Fong, Physician, and Tai Kau,
Old Offender, in Police
Dragnet. 4

Chu Fong, who claims to be a physi-
clan, and Tai Kau, an old violator of
the opium laws, were arrested last
night by Chief of Detectives Arthur
McDuffie and Detective Kellett and
Apana on charge of selling opium for
smoking purposes. Each one was caught
with boxes of the drug in hisifposses-
sion, and the officers expect to- prove
the accused Cinnamon actually sold it.
Chu FOng was arrested at King and
Liliha streets, and Tai Kau was taken
at River and Kukui streets.
The two Chinese had not been lock-
ed up more than ten minutes until there
were bondsmen galore. Sheu Lum was
the first to arrive. He planked down
5000 in gold to insure the presence of
Doctor Fong, and while Officer Parish
was writing receipt anOthe7 celestial
rushed into the police station, drawing
gold from his pocket as he entered.
Seeing his money was not necessary, he
turned on his heels and left.
By the time Sheu Lum s receipt was
delivered the third bondsmen appeared
He, too, had the necessary 5000 and
secured Tai Klaus release. The two
will be arraigned this morning.
Tai Kau has been arrested on three
previous occasions. The first time he
was tried Judge Andrade fined him a
small sum, and on the second occasion
he was arraigned on two charges. The
court dismissed one charge and fined
him fifty dollars on the other, having
overlooked the fact that Tai Kau had
been in court before.
The likelihood is that Tai Kau will
get a severe fine if proven guilty this
time.
Chu Fcng asserted that he had right
to sell opium, as he was physician.

RECEIVED
WITH CONSULAR HON0RS
Advertiser Man Got Everything,
but the Guns, Aboard Visiting
Cruiser Yesterday.

1t only takes a motor car or a hack
to create the impression one is consul
of some foreign country, when foreign
warship in Honolulu harbor is busy re-
ceiving the accredited representatives
and according them the full honors of
their rank. All consuls do not wear
gold lace, but nearly all wear top hats
and frock coats when they make their
official calls, and when a stream of
hacks and autos draws up at the foot
of the gangway of the big French
cruiser Montcalm, the officers aboard
have some difficulty determining whether
the newest arrival is a consul or some
other official, particularly if he does not
wear uniform. =.
This was the case when q lone Adj
vertiser reporter passed down the naval
wharf behind an ambling hack horse.
The officers ON deck could not see who
was in the hack, except that it carried
a man, and as there had been so many
consuls coming down the same wharf,
the boatswain piped the guard out.
There were shrill calls along the decks,
orders shouted, and the first gangplank
sentry presented arms. There was
rushing of bluejackets along the upper
deck and then an officer appeared at
the doorway leading directly to the
entrance to the wardroom.
AS the reporter alighted from the
hack, he glanced over to the Chatta-
nooga and saw petty officer acquaint-
ance grinning broadly. He looked upon
the hustle aboard the cruiser as huge
joke. The sentry at the foot of the
gangway stood at attention and pre-
scented arms, the rifle strap swapping as
he clasped it tightly. AS the reporter
passed up the gangway, the sentry's
eyebrows elevated, for the reporter did
not return the salute.
There was considerable rushing of
feet on the various decks as the news
gatherer sped up the gangway, lacking
all the usual consular dignity. The Of
fcer saluted and the reporter passed
into the spacious gun deck of the
cruiser where he was confronted by q
line of French bluejackets each wear
ing a cartridge belt. More officers APP
peared and each came to attention as
an order was shouted, there was a ruffle
of the drums, the bluejackets presented
arms and every lounger on the deck
came to attention.
The newsgatherer finally got word
in edgewise, handed his card to the
officer in command, and endeavored to
persuade his gallant hosts that he was
but common mortal, who only wanted
to find out about so much saluting and
honors. The officer glanced at the card,
his eyes bulged and he turned sharply
to the rifemen and gave a command.
The bluejackets glanced at the news
gatherer and some grinned as they per-
ceived they had participated in the
full honors for a consul of a foreign
government which they had accorded
to a gatherer of news.
Down in the wardroom, where the
officers received guests yesterday, there
was many a laugh over the incident
