MERCY FOR THEIR PARENTS
MAKES CASTRO KIDS HAPPY

In the police court this morning Joe
Castro and his wife, charged with
having mullet in their possession con
trary to Act 40, Session Laws of 1911,
pleaded guilty and sentence on them
was suspended for thirteen months.
Six little Castros attended their par
ents to the court, including an infant
in arms.
When Joe heard that he had been
practically discharged his face light
ed up with pleasure and he and his
wife left the courtroom attended by
their numerous progeny, all smiling
at their parents good luck and look
ing for all the world like so many
little Happy Hooligans.

CLUMSY COMPLIMENT.

He was a latterer, but a clumsy
one. Noting that the girl of his heart
possessed beautiful teeth that shone
like ivory, he ventured to pass a com.
pliment.
Dearest" he whispered, leaning
over the music rack, your teeth are
like piano keys"
Freezing him with an icy glance,
she turned on her heel Sir, how
dare you insult me-"
Insult your"
Eyes, insinuate that my teeth are
as large as piano keys" And without
another word she left the parlor,
leaving him crestfallen and bewil-
dered.

MRS. WALTERS DEAD

AS a result of fall from horse
more than a week previously, Mrs.
Rena Walters, wife of DR.. st. d. G..
Walters, died last night at $3.50. She
was the daughter of Allan Herbert,
born in Honolulu and about thirty
nine years of age. Mrs. Walters spent
most of her life in Honolulu but trav-
eled extensively. The funeral will
take place from the family residence,
opposite Makiki Field, at three o'clock
this afternoon.

Prosecuting officer Brown said that
he did not think that defendants in
tended to violate the law and that the
mullet in their possession were mixed
with a lot of other fish which they
had caught on the Kalihi flats.
Taking into consideration the fact
that they had pleaded guilty, and their
large family and apparent poverty, he
asked that sentence be suspended.
It is understood that tomorrow ar.
rests will be made among the fishmar
ket stockholders who sell mullet every
day in open defiance of the law.
There is some contention that the
law refers only to sea mullet and not
to pond mullet and this point is to
be tested.

the bath is over.
This bed bath is the invention Of a
southern physician who designed it pri-
marily for use in homes and hospitals
in the treatment of typhoid fever or
other diseases where the full or plunge
bath is indicated. In administering
the full bath in typhoid fever cases
known to physicians as the Brand

man, now dead, who first prescribed it
doctors dislike to remove their pa
tients from the bed to a movable or
stationary bathtub, fearing that the
lifting and carrying necessary under
the circumstances will induce hemor-
rhage. 1t is asserted by physicians
that the rubber bed bath, which does
away with this difficulty, will be hailed
as one of the greatest medical inVen-
tions Of the age.
According to medical statistics, the
death rate from typhoid fever, which
has increased in the United States to
an alarming extent in the last few
years, has been reduced from 30 to 100
per cent when the Brand treatment
was used, the only objection to the
Brand treatment being the necessity
Of lifting the patient from his bed
and back to it. Now that can be dis

PARALYSIS REMEDY is NEAR
Or. Simon Fexner Announces Cure
for lnfantlle Disease viii Soon
Prove to Be Success.

New York.-The Rockefeller insti-
tute in this city believes that its
search for a cure for infantile paraly-
sis is about to be rewarded. Within
six months, according to DR.. Simon
Flexner, definite announcement Of a
specific remedy may be expected.
1--WE have already discovered how
to prevent the disease" says DR..
Flexner, in a statement published
here the other day, "and the achieve
ment of a cure, l may conservatively
say, is not now far distant We have
been working on this problem for a
long time and we have learned where
the germ resides, how the disease is
spread, how the germ enters the body,
the main source Of infection and the
means Of combating the disease.
"The germ is so excessively minute
that the most powerful microscope
fails to reveal it, yet there are accu-
rate methods by which its nature and
presence have been determined"

Two of them begged so hard to be al
lowed to remain that Mrs. Meade
yielded and she has been in the busi-

BY allowing the two boarders to re-
main she was barred from making
serious objections to others and they
kept "edging" in until Mrs. Meade de-
cided to repair the old house for a
hotel and build an addition to IT,.
Since then other additions have been
built and the whole house nicely fur
nished like home. There is no Of.

hotel air about the place, features
which make it a novel attraction to
the travelling man.

to run a hotel" said Banker Meade,
when asked about the profits of "The
Cottage" because If there are any
profits they go to Mrs. Meade and IL
there is a deficit it comes to me. The
deficits, however, do not come often.

when we returned them she would

General Butler passed a decree that

his chief of staff, to see that the order
was carried out. The major went to
the mansion OF Nine. Hatch and, in
response to his command, she brought

London.-When Sir Joe Lyons, Eng,

hotel on The Strand about is months
ago and announced that there would be
no tips in the new hostelry, most old
Londoners laughed. They predicted
that within year either the servants
would be accepting tips in the time
honored way or the hotel would be
closed.
Neither has happened. The hotel has
not closed and the no-tipping system
has proven such a success that the di.
rectors are going to build the biggest
hotel in England and probably in the
world, where the same system will be
practiced. 1t will contain 1000 bed
rooms, and its total dimensions win be
over 10000 cubic feet. 1t will have n

sought by multitude of suitors from
among her own countrymen, but Lord

and prominent leader in society in
that country finally won her hand.

THE HOG SERENE.

Consider for a moment the hog,
The hog is natures sedative. He is
the antithesls Of excitement and the
hnesthetc of worry. When frayed
nerves cry out in protest. and the
aired brain aches with a surfeit Of
care or pleasure. go then to the
humble pig sty and learn a lesson
of repose. What does the farmer do
when the hired man gives notice, or
grasshoppers threaten to take the
upper eighty? He heads for the hog
lot; and, with his elbows on the top
rail and one foot In an intermediate
crack, he watches the swine at their
evening meal till his soul finds peace,
says the Kansas City Star. AS a
preventive of nervous prostration, a
sanitarium, compared to hog, is a

top of the fence and scratch his brist-
ly back with a raspy cob and his legs,
unable to support his excess burden
Of pleasure, crumble beneath him, and
he sinks to sleep, singing a song of
contentment that rumbles forth from
cavernous depths. His humble limi-

In view of the general carelessness
about fire, it is not surprising that
the annual fire loss Of the country is
80 great. On the contrary, 1t is more
remarkable that the loss is not even
greater Very few smokers are care
full, the carelessness about matches
includes every age, sex and condition,
and yet many losses both of property
and life may be traced to these two
causes. People take risks with fire
merely to save little trouble or con-
venience, which risks are simply as
founding to sober second thought, and
the restriction of neither law nor Gus
tom are at all adequate when the
danger involved is considered. 1t is
a matter in which the general public
need almost elementary education.

Accidents VIII Happen.

General Garfield had bad egg
thrown at him while speaking at Ches-
tertown--the same place where, he
said, a few weeks since he was face
to face with the companions Of the
miscreant on the field of battle. 'They
carried more dangerous weapons" !"
said the general, but as l did not run
there, 1t is not probable that shall
run now; and as | fought then, If nee
essary, can fight now" The mob
were intensely gratified by this
plucly speech. and proceeded to in
flict summary Justice upon the egg
thrower, which they did, unfortunate
ly, by administering a tremendous
beating to the wrong man! II a true
patriot, however, he doubtlessly for
gave the accident, and was willing
thus to suffer vicariously in 50 good
a cause.
