 woman who is always fully informed upon the subject in hand, and is al-

Will you listen while l tell you of one? We are being served at an afternoon party with chicken salad, the good kind, the time you like and I like the Mayonnaise with whipped cream, We ate and chatted with the wo- man who shared the luncheon with us, the woman who is always like Rosa Dartle, asking for information. This time the woman wanted me to say I don't konw. I didn't say it, however. There are some people in the world that I don't in the least mind showing the weakness of my mind, my ignorance of many every day commonplace things, and you know that classes of people also, don't you, and you like them just as much as I do, don't you?

We were look ing and straining every nerve, trying to hear what the ladies at the next table were talking about, when the woman looked across the table at me and said, in thoughtful, puzzled sort of way, as if seeking informa- ticn. of what origin is the word May onnaise A fraction of second, I thought I was lost that time and that I would have to own up to my ignor

Growing Old Gracefully

All the children want her all the time, and are never so happy as when they hear she is coming for visit, and now here is che recipe of how to grow old without De ng a nuisance to others and bur den to ourselves. This seems easy, and yet if you look around you, how many truly esteemable persons make their families perfectly miserable for want of little self control and pa 'lehce, and above all large sympathy. The root of most every soil is selfish ness, and we can never begin too early 10 1ght against it and cultivate con- sldefation for others. When I see old ladies cl'nging to youthful pursuits interested in everything pertaining to the happiness and well being of tuners, wearing a red rose on their | bonnet, and careful of her dress and appearance, without going to extremes l always feel there is woman loved oy her family and friends, for she is ! ever ready with her sympathy, love ana cheerfulnesS So extreme old age, "lth undiminished interest and true enjoyment can only be accomplished With great care and tact, to love a1i never give advice unssked, nor even much when it is asked for, neither boast of your experience, as it is not ''ie slightest use, and bores the young nearer, who thinks the results of the sreat experience a.e neither obvious nor sensible.

Nothing more is heard about the PantalOon skirt, which is rather a matter of regret than congratulation, under present dress regulations, for advantage, that there was more room in it for the wearer, than the current style offers, there being separate enclosure for each-er-foot, whereas now both feet are crowded into one. Should any of our readers incline to the belief that this is plain way of speaking, let them kindly remem Der it is not speaking half so plainly as some of their past seasons dress es talk on the wearer.

PROTECTING HaEAIrs sEl RESOURCES

The decision of the territorial supreme court
unfolding the city screening ordinance as d
purefood measure, was today followed by
move to arrest violators of the law.
Honolulu may rest assured that at last ade
qnate protection is to be given the thousands of
patrons of the big public market 1t may take
supreme court, and the inspectors, who have
worked against odds for many months now have
the highest legal authority to support their or
ders for sanitary improvements,
The protection of the consumers of fish is
but one of two vital points involved in this in
dustry in Hawaii. The other is the protection
of the fish themselves and Of sea-foOd generally.
Unfortunately, Hawaiian waters are given no
protection by thefederal authorfties and the ter
ritorial laws are4imited insseope and the subject
Of legislative politics and alf-hearted .enforce-
ment. The resultfs tKatthe wealth of THE seas
is being looted as boldly and rapaciously as if
the men fwere pirates lOoting ships. At half a
dozen spots withinf'a few miles of Honolulu,
Japanese fishermen are using dynamite, plain
offense against the federal laws, according to
unquestionable information. A tour of the fish
market any morning in the week will result in

an inch mesh, and sometimes these tiny specl-
mems could not have been taken except with
fhree-auarter or half-inch mesh nets. ). Fish and
Holsters heavy with eggs are taken from the sea
and sold over the slab and every fish or lobster
thus taken means the loss of thousands of its
kind.
Because there is no federal protection here
the fishermen are despoiIing Hawaiian waters of
their great natural resources. ALREADY the fish
ing sampans are forced to 60 hundreds of miles
from Honolulu where a few years ago they went
only scores.
What Hawaii needs is guardianship for the
sea.-a fish and game warden whose badge OF
office comes from Washington and whose power
Il strengthened by the federal organization
There is already law enough The next step

the echoes Of the cOlonel's rOarings and in the
absence Of contrary proof, has suspected that the
colonel might have been "hande1 something"
The calm denials Of the saner portion of the
press, and the good-humored smile with which
it has listened to the primitive bellOwings Of the
Great Bull Moose, amply justified as the
facts come more and more to the surface The
Star-Bulletin presents today at some length a
review of the Chicago convention showing be-
yond question that Roosevelt's accusation Of
theft is as silly as it is Intentionally misleading
OF the 23S Roosevelt contests 1874 were frivOl-
Gus or fraudulent, and were withdrawn or aban-
idOned. Seventy-four contests then remained lin
large number of instances the Roosevelt men
themselves voted down these contests
The point of the whole thing is that Roosevelt
never had majority Of illegally elected delegates
to the convention at any stage of the game He
never had sufficient delegates, rightfully at the
convention, to give him the nomination. He
knew it, and his leaders knew it, and the only
pity of it is that there were honest Roosevelt
men and sincere Roosevelt men and enthusiastic
Roosevelt men who left the convention and came!
to their homes convinced that he had been de-
prived of the nomination by trickery and fraud.
This is not the opinion of the Taft press en-
tirely The publication of the statement of IA
pages reviewing the whole subject, has proved
to all hut the most insanely prejudiced OF thel
Roosevelt papers that Taft did not steal the NOM
nation from the colonel Within the past twot
weeks, the comments of the papers east and west
have shown that the convention is now beingl
seen in its true perspective
Certainly not even so enthusiastic ROOse
Welt man as Mr. George r. Carter, to take an
here at home, can contend that the New
York World, an independent Democratic news
paper, is favorable to Mr.. Taft. The Worlds
leanings if any were shown, would be toward
the administration in as unfavOrable
a light as possible Yet the World says of the
convention:
'Mr. Roosevelt never had a majority OF the
of rightfully elected delegates. His
pretensions to such ma jority are fraudulent.
From the moment that he was forced to submit
his contests to the test at Chicago, he encour-
aged his Spokesman, like Heney and Dixon, to
shout theft and fraud and to create the popu-
lar impression that the nomination was stolen.
- ~The progressive Republicans cause at Chis
cage was utilized by Mr.. Roosevelt for the single
purpose of promoting his own nomination for
third term just as the third-party movement is
being engineered by him today. No other can
1idate, Republican or Bull Moose, would ever
have been tolerated by him."
