Before her marriage to the scion of

Prince Cupid" October s, 1896, was
the occasion of great rejoicing
throughout the islands. Princess
Kalanianaole was educated in English
schools and took finishing course in
France. She is a thorough linguist,
an artist of no small ability and an
especially fine musician. She has
been largely instrumental in creating
a vogue for Hawaiian music.

Some bits of pottery which she pos

Whenever the grass is repeatedly
burned, the roots become eventually
destroyed. the sweeter grasses give
way to the more resistant and finally
the latter perish. Not only does fire

the devastation. The best grass ! saw

In so far as, tick eradication is con-
cerned, it seems to me an injustice
that the necessities of the work
should be quoted as being opposed
to the needs of the forest service.
Firing the leaves has not eradicated
ticks, although followed for years.
Instead of being beneficial in the for

even the new growth of trees, which

pleasant gatherings which have at
tended, the Mother Goose party takes
the lead. Invitations to the effect
that Mother Goose" will be pleased
to welcome her goslings at the resi-
dence of whoever gives the entertain

fully two weeks in advance. The re-
quest to come in costume representing
some one of the characters found in
Mother Goose" can be written on a
small card and inclosed in the envel-

vitations can be made very pretty il
one can paint, by having little water

them-such as little Jack Horner"

You may be sure after these notes
have been sent out that there will be
ripple of excitement among the
young people and Mother Goose

In his 40 years Of travelling, $4,000
miles have been on foot. Testimony
OF his researches are found in most of
the famous museums in this country
and in museums of Canada and Eng

Among American pathfinders 1t Is
said that this explorer has devoted
more severe labor to the accomplish
ment of his many expeditions than any
other ten men of this country. His
donations to museums have included
many valuable relics and much data
pertaining to the Indian tribes and
prehistoric Americans.
Captain Chittenden has visited prac-
tically every Indian tribe on the con-
tinent and has lived with some of the
distinguished old chiefs as long as six
months, or year. He has conse-
quently become versed in several In
dian languages. 1t is an interesting
fact that, save on one or two occa-
sions when protection from border ruff
fans demanded 1t. he never carried q

Chief Edonsau of the Queen Char
lotte tribe was Captain Chittenden's
great friend. Poundmaker, chief of
the Saskatchewan Crees, whom be
visited during the Riel rebellion, was
another intimate Others were Amer
lean Horse, a great war chief of the
Sioux; Red Cloud, Sitting Bull, Two
Strike. and the noted Chief Joseph,
who came to see him in camp on the
Spokane river in the early days.
In the winter of 190S'09 upon visit
ing Chief Manuel of the Cahuilla and
Serano Indians of southern California
he was invited to address the tribe
at their fiesta, and ne remained In
camp with them for 40 days.
As evidence of his pedestrian hab-

provided with free transportation to

left the stage in the interior and pro-
ceeded 300 miles alone on foot among

years later, in the dead of winter, with
the thermometer reaching is degrees
