- HAVE EYES LIKE OWLS.
Evangelist Jolly Says Many Suffer
From Spiritual Blindness.

Many Americans OF today have the
same great dilation to their spiritual
eye as the physical eye Of the owl has,
with the result that they cannot see In
the full light Of things as they should,
and consequently cannot appreciate the
great biblical truths, according to
Evangelist r. Grant Jolly Of New York
in discussing "A Spiritual Vision be-
fore the Washington Temple Congrega-
ton (non-sectarian, in New Masonic
Temple yesterday afternoon.
Many other Americans. the evangelist
declared. are suffering from cataract of
the spiritual vision. the great biblical
truths being totally obscured.
Both of these ailments" he said, "can
be cured only by the man or woman
buckling down to thorough study OF
the Bible, the truths Of which when re-
vealed will automatically remove from
the impaired vision that which at pres
emit obscures the message of the Re-
deemer to their souls"

ly how much of a master of the art of
illumination the freely is the bureau Of
standards took photographs of the spec
trum of the FREELY and of the carbon
glow lamps. The density of the two sets
of negatives was measured, and from this
the value of the two kinds Of light was
determined After this the energy re-
Quired for producing the light was de-
termined, and with this Information in
hand it became a simple calculation to
determine the lighting efficiency of the
two sources Of light
It was found that the lightning bug
uses 1856 per cent of the energy used in
making light in the light itself. On the
other hand. the carbon glow lamp uses
only four-tenths of 1 per cent the other
1916 per cent going to waste. In other
words the freely is over 200 times more
economical in the production of light

THE ABOVE cut shows one of the
i many models of the American
Queen Correct Corset and we call
your attention to the perfect lines of
this garment, both front and back
view. 1t makes a perfect figure and
is at once the most comfortable and
stylish garment that can be worn.
Please note the Perfection Front
Piece" that lies under the frontal open
ing, prevents the soft flesh from push
ing against and between the ~lacers,
gives perfect lines to the figure, and
permits a variation of adjustment no
other front lace corset could have,
making the American Queen Cor
set superb in the qualities of Style,
Comfort and Durability"
Also please note the Perfection
Perforated Back Section" and imagine
the comfort and ease derived from
this splendid idea of having the two
back sections of perforated material
and with center back stays removed,
thereby relieving the spinal nerve CEN
tiers of all injurious pressure. These
excellent features can be obtained in
no other thar the American Queen
Correct Corset"
They are made to order" and cor
rectly bring out all the beauty lines of
the figure to the best advantage, at
the same time preserving and empha-
sizing the grace and poise of each in
dividual, which is the acme of the
true gownmaker's art.
Is it not your dnty to yourself and
your family to buy the corset that will
give you the most value in health, in
style, in comfort and in durability?
We think it is, and it is upon this basis
that we ask you to grant u represen-
tative an interview to demonstrate to
you the superior merits and advan-
tageS of our garment.
If you are willing 70 witness such a
demonstration, with no obligations
whatever on your part, please call on

7OSOMEF(JNDS

Philip l. Weaver, first deputy city
and county attorney, handed down
a decision this morning, in whicn
he challenged the action of Ter
Irftorial Treasurer eohkling in re.
fusing to pay to the city and county
any part of the funds due it until No
yember 80. The opinion, which is pro-
'duced in full herewith. covers the
matter thoroughly.
The opinion of Mr.. Weaver reads:
Honolulu, Hawaii, Nov. II, 1913.
Opinion No. 80.
Tax moneys due county. Time OF
payment by treasurer Of territory
Construction of statutes as to time OF
payment. -
THE treasurer of the territory is
required by section 1272a as set forth
in act las Of the session laws of 1911,
to pay all personal and specific prop,
erty taxes paid In from each county
or city and county, ETC., except such
as are retainable by toe territory, etc,
to the treasurer of such county or
city and county on the last legal day
CT each month.
This provision is directory and not
mandatory.
&C. j. Mccarthy, Esq,
"City and County Treasurer.
Dear Sir: i In response to your
oral request for an opinion as to the
construction Of section 1272a, re-
vised laws of Hawaii, as amended by
act 145 of the session laws of 1911, l
make this written report.
I'm my opinion, the section does not
prevent the treasurer from paying the
money over either before or after the
date set, the last legar>day Of each
month. If this phrase we're manda-
tory, he could pay on that day, and
no other. Many statutes are, how
ever, directory only. This is such a
statute in my opinion.
The general rule upon the con-
struction of statutes may be found in
So Cyc. 1160, as follows:
"a statute specifying a time with
in which a public officer is to perform
an official act regarding the rights
and duties of others is directory
merely, unless the intent Of the leg
islature is shown to be a limitation of
the power of the officer
This section does not show such
intent of the legislature. 1t merely
sets the time when the treasurer
should settle up.
The fact that the word shall is
used does not make the statute man.
