Fullaway for calling the yellow fever
mosquito Stegomyia fasciata. This in
sect is known to entomologists under
nineteen different names perhaps

correct one several things have to be
considered, the chief of which is pri-

the greatest authority on this group
of insects Of. V. Theobald), and call
this species S. fasciata. 1t is the
name by which it is most widely
known, and under which the most
numerous references to this insect
stand, The only reason for changing
the name to calopus is that Villiers,
in 1889, described a species as CuleX
fasciata, but as there is no type, and

LITTLE INTERVIEWS


DR. PRATT-The job of going over
the Kewalo tract on Saturday was a
strenuous one. and we could not get
Nhrough in the time we had allowed
ourselves.
FRANK McINTYRE-A year from
now we'll all be laughing at our
selves for having kicked up so big a
fuss about bananas.
CHARLES ROYCE heard of an
inspector who seid that he had skin
ned eleven yellow bananas and found
mosquito larvae in each.
w. T. POPE-The desks for the
schools are being sent out as soon as
possible, and all the children will soon
have comfortable equipment for their
work.
E. A. BERNDT-Why not chop off
the stalks o fthe banana plants and
burn them where they lie, instead Of
leaving them to become a fermenting
nuisance.
JOHN JONES-There are enough
banana trees piled up around Lunalilo,
Green and King streets, to say moth
ing of other places, to keep all the
wagons going for days more.
R. w. BRECKONS-I think Norman
p. Smith will think twice before he
smuggles any more opium. That 81,
500 fine ought to keep him quiet for g
while. What the lawyers didn't get O
his money the government did.
JOHN COFFEY-I told an inspector
that the mosquitoes built nests in the
top of the Seaside cocoanut palms, bu
he finally concluded, as he had no or
ders, not to climb up there and rou
them out.
r. J. BUCHLY-They have cut dow
all the banana trees in private yardl
at Waikiki, but l don't notice tina
they have touched the big plantations

about ten trips loaded clear to the top

CLIFFORD KIMBALL-There are
no day mosquitoes at Haleiwa, and
the night species are less numerous
than formerly. Since the plantations
have substituted burning the cane for
stripping it before cutting, the mos
quitoe pest in the country has been
wonderfully reduced.

CAUSE FOR ALARM
Loss of Appetite or Distress After
Eating a symptom that Should
Not Be Disregarded.

Appetite is Just a natural desire
for food. Loss of appetite or stom-
ach distress after eating indicate
Indigestion or dyspepsia. Oyer-eat-
ing is a habit very dangerous to a
persons good general health.
1t is not what you eat but what
YOU digest and assimilate that does
you good. Some of the strongest,
heaviest, and healthiest persons are
moderate eaters.
There is nothing that will cause
more trouble than a disordered
stomach, and many people daily con-
tract serious maladies simply
through disregard or abuse of the
stomach.
We urge all in Perth Amboy who
suffer from any stomach derange-
ment, indigestion, 0 r dyspepsia,
whether acute or chronic, to try
Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets, with the
distinct understanding that we will
refund their money without ques-
ton or formality, if after reasonable
use of this medicine, they are not
perfectly satisfied with the results.
We recommend them to our custo-
mers every day, and have yet to hear
of any one who has not been bene-
fitted by them. We honestly believe
them to be without equal. They give
very prompt relief, aiding to neu-
tralize the gastric juices, strength
en- the digestive organs, to regulate
the bowels and thus to promote per-
feet nutrition, and eradicate all un-
healthy symptoms.
We urge you to try a 25c. box of
Rexall's Dyspepsia Tablets, which
gives 15 days treatment. At the
end of that time, your money will be
returned to you If you are not salts
fed. OF course, in chronic cases
length of treatment varies. For
such cases, we have two larger
sizes, which sell for SOC. and $1,00.
Remember, you can obtain Rexali
Remedies in this community only at
