Honest Medicines Versus Fakes.

President Tafts recent message suggesting an amendment to the Pure Food and Drugs law in it's relation to Prepared Medicines, does not refer to such standard medicines as Foley's Honey and Tar Compound and Foley Kidney Pills, both of which are true medicines carefully compounded Of ingredients whose medicinal qualities are recognized by the remedial agents
 for the diseases they gre intended to counteract. For over three decades
 Foley's Honey and Tar Eompound has been a standard remedy for coughs, colds and affections of the
 throat. chest and lungs for children aad for grown persons, and 1t retains today it's pre-eminence above all other preparations of it's kind. Foley Kidney Pill are equally effective and meritorious. w. l.: Dewoody & Co.

 "That's how I broke 1t. sir"
 "There. go along. Thomas; you are a great fooi,'' said his master, adding to himself. "and was as great one for asking such foolish question"

LIFE HABITS OF
 THE BOIL WEEV,L.

FROM the time .he egg is laid
 until the boil weevil is grown is from two to three weeks. The progeny of a single pair of weevils from June to November can reach the amaz- ing number of 12.T55, 100.
 The boil weevil eats nothing but cotton and will starve if this food is not available. The insect does not travel at night and is net attracted by lights.
 During the summer the boil weevil lives about sixty days. While hibernating in the winter it's life is longer. and there is one instance of a weevil living from Dec. 10 until the following October.

desire to make tho statement that the
Commissioners are in no wise respon-

and 1t was mandatory upon the Com
missioners to issue said Bonds when
ever the School Board called for same.
After the bonds had been issued the
School Board not being ready to build
requested the Commissioners to hold
the proceeds of sale Of said Bonds until
called for, and statement ia hereby

Inter-Island Happenings

district as a result of acts of the Leg
islature, in securing an appropriation
for a wharf in Hanalei Bay. One prom
inent man, in speaking to a Garden
Island reporter, said: I'VE have strug-
gled and fought for this recognition,
inch by inch, from each legislature
getting a little nearer to the point un-
til at last we have gotten what we
need in the way of appropriations,
and I hope to see the beginning of
the wharf at once. The present Kau-
al members Of the House and Senate
are all right, and if they ever come

welcome to our hospitable little val
