"I've seen her." said the poor girl, with
a meek smile. II got on the boarding and
stood on the top rail and saw her as she
slipped out of church"
"And how about the Wheat" demanded
the sisters. Lets have. look at 1t.
Surely you spent all your time looking
around again.
But the wheat was all clean, and would
have been 80 II it had been hundred times
more. They then drove lot Of sharp nails
into the top Of the boarding In order to
prevent the poor girl getting upon 1t.
The two elder girls anxiously waited for
the coming Sunday, as they were eager to
show OF some of their new dresses they
had never had on before. Sunday at hast
arrived, and the two cider girls dressed up
ever so much more sorgeously than before.
They put on their rings and rouged their
faces and went of in great hurry as soon
as the bells rang. The. prime again was

The mulberry tree was cut down the
very same afternoon.
In the afternoon the girls did not bring
home any more news from church; they
did not inquire any more whether the
wheat had been cleaned, because they
noticed that their stepfather was very
angry with them for their having shown
so much envy against their sister. The
poor father led his child to the cottage
of a widow who lived at the end of the
village and who herself had no children
There she lived henceforward. The
prince did not come to church for several
Sundays. but after the lapse of three
months three weeks and three days, at
three in the afternoon, three quarters and
three minutes, he came on foot to the viii
lage where he had seen the pretty girl
This time only his servants were with
him. They examined every gatepost and
at last found the golden rose which the
servant had stuck into the one gate. They
entered the cottage, where they found q
woman at the stove bench

the prince.

said the servant. We shall find her, if
have to search her from out the sky"
As they passed through the gate the
servant took the golden rose from the
crack in the gatepost and threw it to the
winds The rose thereupon quietly
hoated in the air above the heads of the
prince and his servant The prince and
his attendants followed the rose till at
the end of the village it dropped on the
ground in front of the gate of the last
cottage.
Lets try in here and see what the
rose meant" said the prince.
So they went to the door. A cock
crowed just as they stepped across the
threshold and a very poor woman greeted
the guests.
Have you a daughter, good woman
inquired the prince.

a girl living with me, but she had no dress

They are set in candles on the tree house

most disappointing thing for visitors to
climb up rope ladder to the tree house

to eat. The visitor who arrives when the

and the local government through its
legislature has established Territor-
ial board of immigration under Fed
eral control for the introduction of
laborers and farmers from occidental
countries. AS the planters, or individ-
uals, are prohibited from importing
laborers or from contributing to any
fund for the purpose, all immigrants
are obliged to come through this
board assisted solely by public funds
raised by general taxes for the en-
penses of which and the bringing in
of the laboreTs and farmers an income
tax of two per cent on all incomes in
excess of $4,000 was enacted by the
Hawaiian Legislature four years ago
Prior to the enactment of this law
3470 Caucasians were introduced
through the Territorial board by
means of funds voluntarily subscribed
by the planters and since then 1900
Caucasians have been introduced at a
cost to taxpayers of over 100000,
making a total of over 1000 Caucas-
fans introduced since 1906, in refer

Fourth Report of the Commissioner of
Labor under date of February &c, 1911,
which has been reprinted as Senate
Document S66, in which, on page 49,
the Commissioner, in summing up his
conclusions, states as follows:
Meantime a bone fide effort is be
ing made by the Territorial govern
ment, backed by the large employing
interests, to settle larger proportion
of Caucasians workers and settlers in
Hawaii 1t is doubtful if any large in
dustry upon the mainland has in the
pest been willing to disregard the
economic demand for cheap labor, in
consideration of what are at leas
partly civic motives in securing more
costly labor, to the same extent as
have the Hawaiian planters. They
are willing without reserve to employ
all the Caucasian workers the govern
ment can bring to the islands, at g
wage one-third larger than they pay
for nearly as efficient labor brought
from Asia"

SOCIAL NEWS or THE DAY.
The time is not far away when Kai-

Wednesdays for Ocean View and the
balance of the days for respective sec
tons.
A factor in the advancement of Kali

in the case of bazaar, such as will
