"ABSALOM"
Continued from rage one)

81 was progressing finely and the
dog was living well In fact he was
enjoying his regular meals so much
that i'm his canine mind he determined
never to return 10 the free lunch
route unless forced to do so. In or.
der to carry out his scheme he
planned o delay the completion of the
painting.
Rarely have I seen an animal show
such diabolical ingenuity. First my
cemel's hair brushes disappeared and
had to senG to the city for more,
causing delay Of a day. I found
later that 'Absalom' had chewed them
up. Then he found an opportunity to
lick most of the paint off the canvas.
This made him ill, causing a delay of
another day. / lectured him severely
until the tears ran down his cheeks
and I felt sorry for the aged sinner.
He seemed sorry too, for he permit
ted me to work on his portrait until
had it practically completed.
'T was looking forward to the day
when it should be the cynosure of the
eyes of all Honolulu. 'Absalom' was
not. was called away for an hour
one morning when the picture lacked
but few touches to make it complete.
When returned Ahsalom' and the
picture were missing After a long
search I found the dog asleep under
a spreading mango tree. His head
was pillowed on all that was left of
the portrait.
"That settled it. There will never
be portrait of "Absalom" from the
brush of Thompson exclaimed.
Base hound, you shall return to your
ignoble haunts on the first train.
'Absalom' both heard and understood.
Thereafter for four days whenever
he heard a train whistle he ran like
scared wolf. I had to feed him at
some expense to keep him from devas-
tating the country side. finally
trapped him, bound him with ropes
and returned him to Honolulu, which
city is welcome to him, but my sig
nature will never appear on any por-
trait of AbSalom.

are not going to foster a monopoly
by being forced to use an expensive

There is no reason why we should
have to 20 ahead and put in an eX-
pensiVe payement--a patented article
when there are other kinds of pave
ment that are just as durable and,
not being patented articles, are less
expensive.
1T is not a question of going
against the peoples wishes. We have
always kept our pavements in good
condition and shall continue to do so.
'If we are compelled to go ahead
and use this expensive patented pave
ment specified for, it means a reduc-
ton in the value of the service rem
dered to our patrons, because the
more money We have to spend for
this purpose the less there will be
to devote to improvement of our SER

ut is not as though We paid enor-
nous dividends on our stock and were
anxious to pay still larger, but We do
wish to devote all the money that
