by the members of the board, the
Hawaiian Electric Company and the
Mutual Telephone Company for the
purpose of Installing a number Of
new telephone and electric light poles

AGED HAWAIIAN DIES AT
HOME AT WAIAkEA

HILO, Hawaii, April 4.-Kaelema-
kule, said by many to have been the
oldest Hawaiian living, died at his
home at Waiakea less than a week
ago. The aged Hawaiian was about
one hundred and five years old, but
remained active and in full control of
his faculties until the end. Rev.
Stephen Desha, who had known the
old man for number of years and
who knows more about his history
than any other person, says that the
age of the deceased may be estimated
from the fact that he was born during
the time the great fishpond was be-
ing constructed at Kiholo during the
reign of Kamehameha the Great. Ac-
coriing to the history which he told
Desha, Kaelemakule was of good
birth, being connected through his
grandmother with the family of Col.
Sam Parker.
AS the Hawaiian grew old, he was
forced to abandon the sea as means
of earning a livelihood, and remained
little home at Waiakea. About fifteen
years ago, he bought coffin and ex-
planned to his friends at the time
that, as he was in funds, he might
as we'll make the purchase as he
thought that it would soon be needed.
He often used the coffin as bed.
With the death of Kaelemakule, but
one other Hawaiian of his age re-
mains on this island. This Hawaiian
lives at Napoopoo and is the grand
father of the Rev. Mr.. Timoteo. Rev.
Desha, however, believes that this
Hawaiian may have been born little
before Kaelemakule. The deceased
leaves a large family of children,
grandchildren and great-grandchil-
dren.

kALlM PROJECT

To Determine the possibilities Of
making the port of Honolulu large
enough to accommodate the greatly
increased shipping that completion Of
the Panama canal is sure to bring
here, the army engineers viii make g.
preliminary investigation of Kalihii
harbor and channel, with a view to
connecting it with Honolulu harbor.
This is a project dear to the hearts
of all progressive Honolulans, and
one which has been discussed from
time to time for years past. 1t looks
now as though the time Of fulfil
ment is at hand.

carried authority to make prelim-l

been appropriated for a survey, and
before making test borings and spend
ing money In other ways 1t is advis-
able to make a superficial examina-
ton to see whether 1t is worth while
to proceed. This is matter that
many people in Honolulu have given
considerable study to, and IL anyone
has suggestions, now is the time to
offer them, and they will be consid-
erred"
To connect the two harbors by the
wide waterway planned would re-
.quire considerable dredging through
mud flats and coral outcrop, that IS
now barely awash at high tide. One

Without cOntentment and an easy
mind, no man can be really happy or
successful in his work, and in this fact
lies the psychology Of saving,
1t means just this-besides the actual
amount of money you accumulate by
systematic saving, you get very valua-
BILE mental effects.
The mind has a great influence over
the body. Saving makes you think sue.
cess thoughts, 1t creates in you a de.
sire to get ahead, and desire is the first
step toward attainment.
Saving frees you from worry about
the present, and from anxiety for the
future.
Therefore, the psychological effect Of
saving is that you are enabled to give
your whole attention and best efforts
to your work.
In short, when you save regularly
you can do better work and more of it,
and thus you will be happier both now
and in the future.

HOO to Make
Better Cough Syrup than
You Can Buy
A Family Supply, Saving 90 and
Fully Guaranteed.

A full pint of cough syrup-as much
as you could buy for $2.F0-can easily
be made at home. You will find nothing
that takes hold Of an obstinate cough
more quickly, usually ending it inside Of
"a hours. Excellent, too, for Group,
whooping cough, sore lungs, asthma,
hoarseness and other throat troubles.
Mix one pint of granulated sugar with
u pint of warm water, and stir for 2
minutes. Put 21a ounces of Pinex fifty
cents WORTHY in pint bottle, then add
the Sugar Syrup. 1t keeps perfectly.
Take a teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
This is just laxative enough to help
cure O cough. Also stimulates the appe.
tite, which is usually upset by cough.
The taste is pleasant.
The effect Of pine and sugar syrup on
the inflamed membranes is well known.
Pinex is the most valuable concentrated
compound of Norway white pine extract,
rich in guaiacol and all the natural
healing pine clements Other prepara.
tions will not work in this formula.
The Pinex and Sugar Syrup recipe is
now used by thousands of housewives
throughout the United States and Cam
ada. The plan has been initiated, but
the old successful formula has never
been equaled.
A guaranty of absolute satisfaction, or
money promptly refunded, goes with this
recipe. Your druggist has Pinex, or will
get it for YOU: If not, send to The
