Th. Use Of Hats.

Until quite modern times mon
usually went barchcadcl except
when on long journeys from home.
1t was not until after the Norman.
conquest that hats began to be used
in England During tho middle ages
the mobiles wore hcadgcar of various
sorts. but the rank and file of tile
people, except upon certain rare
occasions, had no other covering for
their heads than the hair that was
on them. The badness that is 50
common in modern times is owing
to the hat wearing habit, a condi.
ton from which the ancients were
largely free.

Ths Foam on Soda Water.

Foam is natural product, being
caused by the escape Of air OF gas
from viscid liquid. In the case
of soda water it is the escape of the
carbonic acid gas from the sweet
ened beverage that causes the at
tractive sparkling appearance, but
the sweetened water alone would
give rise to but small quantity of
foam, as the gas would too easily es-
cape. In order to prevent this some
mucilaginous substance is usually
added to the Grup, which renders
the mass more viscous, SO prevent
ing the gas from escaping and pro-
ducing the attractive head of foam

The Symbol Speech.

Visible speech is the name given
to system of symbols designed TO
represent all the articulate sounds
possible of production by the hu-
man voice. 1t was invented by Al
e1ander Melville Bell and first pub
lishcd by him in 1867. According
to Bell, fifty of these symbols are
sufficient to represent the sounds of
all languages. The alphabetic char
acters composing Bells system,
thirty Of which are called radical,
are to certain extent pictorial rep
resentations of the organs that pro-
duce the sounds. Curves arc used TO
represent consonants, and straight
lines are made the basis of vowel
representation, and by this means a
complete alphabet has been com
structed.-New York American

ATTORNEY THAYER
FILES PROTEST

Attorney Wade Warren Thayer
has sent broadside into the city
hall calling attention TO the condi-
ton of the lower portion of Alewa
road, which was recently completed
by the city road department at a
cost Of several thousand dollars to
! the taxpayers.
/ According to Thayer, the useful
ness of. the highway is greatly en-
Idangered by the accumulation of
weeds which have been allowed to
grow along the bitches lining the
roadway, thereby choking the drain
age. The result has been that the
volume of storm water can not be
carried off after heavy rain and 1t
covers the road to depth of several
inches.
! Thayer stated his belief that the
labor of one man for but single
day would place the bitches in good
condition again. Quinn, chairman
of the road committee, has been del
egated to appease the injured feel
ings OF the residents OF Alewa road.

SUPPORT The band.

Supervisor Quinn is absolutely cor
rect in his defense OF the Hawaiian
band MS a community asset for tour
lists as well as source of pleasure for
our local citizens.
This city should spend more money
on the band and distribute 1t among
more different events. Our band has
a reputation throughout the world,
land this city should supply sufficient
funds TO enable 1t to maintain that
reputation.
To do this requires that the or
sanization should have an increased
membership. Captain Berger is do
Ting splendidly with what he has, but
the dignity of the Hawaiian band as
established by Its ancient reputation
Independently of present-day de-
mands, fully justifies appropriating
enough money to assure compile
ment of numbers and quality that
will make our band more talked
about than ever, and more enthusi-
astically praised.
Everybody likes to hear the old
band play.

Honolulu prohibitionists and the

whom is now associated that prince
Iof all moral virtue, Yoel C. Cohen,

something like this:
We want prohibition for Hawaii
by Federal enactment - notwith-
standing all our business bodies and
the Bar Association have voted by
an overwhelming majority against
lany invasion of the rights and priv
ileges of local self-government
granted under the Organic Act es-
tablishing the Territory Of Hawaii
And, further,
We want prohibition for Hawaii
by Federal enactment - notwith-
other Territory of the United States
and no State Of the Union and no
possession over which the American
flag flies that is so treated by the
Federal government. And. further,
We want an exception made OF
this Territory on this great subject

Ioutwardly claim that the people of
The Territory are as well able to
govern themselves as are the citi-
zens of any other Territory, and bet
ter than the people Of some Of the
States. And, finally,
