A wpow.s DAUGHTER

Dear Miss Lfbbey:
 am a very beautiful girl of twen- -ty, a perfect blonde with golden hair and large blue eyes. I play nicely on the piano and can sing, exception ally well. I am not popular with the girls of my own age or with young men. My mother is a widow. Do you think the men think they would have to take her were to marry ? Do you think will be an old maid? I would rather die than that
 ISABELLA
 To be popular with either sex a girl cannot@ exploit vanity. She must be agreeable and kind of heart to both sexes. It would be difficult to judge a mans opinion in respect to your mother before you have succeeded in attracting @ young man with matrf- monia1 intentions. It IS usually the girl over anxious to become a bride who misses the mark
 Men admire a girl who is devoted to a widowed mother and have little or no faith in, the girr vV=1o would throw hapless parent over to sink or swim as best she could upon ac- quiring a husband. Honor thy moth

THE FRIENDSHIPS
 MEN CONTRACT

eff each mans secret, unguessed care,
 Were written his brow,
 How many would our pity stare
 Who have our envy nowl And if the promptings of each heart
 No artiflce concealed, How many trusting friends would part
 At what they saw concealed"
 How true it is that a man may be known by the company which he finds congeniaI.
 No matter how austere or sedate he may appear, if his friends are hail fellows well met, jolly at bin and board, with the ever ready laugh on their lips it may well be surmised that the quiet fellow has a streak of the same mirth about him. Birds of a feather always flock together, it is said. Their hilarity has a strong ap- peal to him.
 Men form their lil<ings for each oth- CT in early youth. A young boy may be inclined to be studious, have a penchant for reading of an evening. If his folks insist that he is making himself unpopular by not mingling with the young men of the neighbor- hood, out of sheer wish to be dutiful and agreeable he puts aside his long ing for study and research and min gles with the lively crowd They are all sons Of wel-to-do parents No 4GeASL4 4SlS -DGE41 k1AoCSSA tEROA S441AAAs They have been allowed to do pretty much as they liked.
 He falls into the ways contracted by them. His individuality is grad qa1Iy submerged. This type of man develops into the the dashing free lance-tIe bachelor. If left to his own resources in early life, as Q. rec- reation from his books he would have turned to the compantonship of sweet young girls; in all probability he would have married young and lived d happy, peaceful life of it.
 A mans companions in early life turn the tide of his future likes or dislilzes. Le the boy follow his own bent as long as he is facing in the right direction. The friendship which he contracts as & youth may not be the wisest for him to be guided by in early manhood, on to middle age. It would be difficult for him to cut loose from them later on.
 Their opinions would influence him often against his better Judgment, aye and against his own hearts prompt ings. People are wont to speak with admiration of the man who Is so well liked that he never lacks for a crowd to keep him company. In fact, it has often been his misdoing.
 Friends are good to have but, in every mans life there should be-a woman, tender and true; nearer and dearer yet than all .othersEa wife. The man who has too many male comrades from whom he hesitates to separate is lost

Dear Miss Libbey:
 What is your opinion about q. girl who works for a; living spending most of her money for clothes2 say-she should be dressy if she expects to catch a. good beau. If she is plain and don't look stylish, young men do not want to. take her to places of amusement where they are likely to meet their friends. am girl of twenty-two.

He said, Put it up to Miss Libbey.''

 It is only natural for a young and attractive girl to wish to look her best and enjoy the fruits of her own labors But--it is poor policy to spend more than she can really afford for adornment. Many a. girl contrives to present Ia fine appearance on half that sum. When one of his children is able to earn money, a. poor tired over worked parent has every reason to expect a certain amount contributed for support.

Little Beauty Chats
BY BLANCHE BEACON

At night, before retiring, get things ready for the next day, and no mat ter how tired you are. arrange your clothes to be worn tomorrow. When you awaken you will have a feeling of not having so much to do as if you left everything undone overnight. Try this for week or two, and if you get sufficient sleep, your nervous ness will begin to vanish.

A BEEF FAMINE THREATENS
Fewer Than 1000 Head fave Gone
to the Slaughtering Pens Within
Four DaystTwice That Many
A Year Ago

Buyers Of cattle from the dressed
beef houses say temporary beet
famine threatens Kansas City and vi
cinity, its duration depending upon
the will Of the ranch owners in the
great grazing sections to the west
and southwest.
The slaughter of cattle in Kansas
City has been far below normal for
some time past, but reached an acute
stage this week when fewer than
eleven thousand cattle have gone to
the six big dressed beef concerns in
four days, or no more than enough to
supply the state of Missouri a full
beef ration for two days. This weeks
slaughter of cattle will be less than
half that of the corresponding week
year ago.
The capacity Of the Kansas City
slanohtr. hc-ens 10 oivhtpen .houeand
cattle daily and the plants have had
less than one-seventh Of this number
in the past four days.
In four days this week the five
western markets received only $4,000
cattle, compared with $4,000 cattle
q year ago, decrease Of 33 per cent.
In the first one and one-half months
this year the same markets received
100000 fewer cattle than in the same
period of 1918, decrease of IL per
cent. This shortage Of meats has
been increased further by the unusu-
ally light weight of cattle this year,
due to the scarcity Of feed.
Killers say prices for cattle have
been kept within bounds owing to the
unusually small use Of beef. They say
the consumption of mutton has in
creased, while pork and beef have de-
creased, thus keeping prices Of cattle
and hogs lower than expected and
prices Of sheep higher.
Increased receipts, commission men
say, depend entirely on the grazing
sections to the west and southwest Of
Kansas City. Thus far this season
that movement, which should be well
under way, is far below normal, prac-
tically the only grass fat cattle re-
ceive coming from Texas below the
quarantine line. Only one shipment
has been received from the Usage
country in Oklahoma. The Missouri
valley viii supply few fed cattle until
another corn crop can be made into
beef. Pasture men assert that they
will hold cattle for gains, making the
marketing season late. Some say it
will take killing frosts to turn cattle |
from grass, and than II the corn crop
il - large as now promises, many
will 60 to feed lots instead Of to
market.
Thus far this year receipts Of all
live stock at the Kansas City Stock |
yards were only 40,276 cars, . de-
crease Of $3.50 cars, or 1871 per cent.
compared with the same period in
1913, and the smallest car lot re-
ceipts in any similar period since
1892 The decrease IL 1900 cattle
and 225y000 hogs. There is an in
crease Of $4,000 sheep.-Kansas City

LETTERS
FOR THE CAUSE.

Editor Honolulu Star.Bulletin, Sir:
Our dear editor asked a short time
ago, why the ladies OF Honolulu were
not more interested in the subject OF
temperance. The fact is thai we are
more intensely interested in that sub
iect than words can express.
And / believe voice the feeling Of
most every intelligent woman OF the
Islands when / say this.
And we thank our good editor OF
the Star.Bulletin for his excellent ed
itorial on that subject in Saturday s
edition. And for the interesting lee
ture of DR.. Wadman. Wish more OF II
might have been printed.
We feel that nothing too urgent
for the cause OF temperance can be
said. And we are SO glad that there
ere some brothers who will lend q
brothers hand to help save our
homes, and the lives Of our dear ones
from ruin.
We also think OF the many other
homes that are represented here IN
this city, as they come and 90. who
are better acquainted with these hqr
nor places, than with the places OF
real worth.
In the standing army alone are
about 5000, besides hundreds OF other
victims soon to arrive. who are prey

ance
How can soldiers be trusted to rep

righteous government with the habit
Of intemperance upon them? Should
they be called into action when intox-
icated how serious might be the re.

Of
HONOLULUHAVE
WORK OUTLINED

Honolulu children to the number Of
eight, all of whom are either deaf,
dumb or blind, now are going to
school and have started in to learn
trades which, when perfected, will
employed or public charges. Under
the direction Of Miss Gertrude A. Ma
son, who recently arrived here from
the mainland, this new departure in
local public school work Is proving a
decided success and has brought
about a condition long looked forward
to by the department Of public instruc-
ton. z...
The work is most interesting, al
though just starting" said Miss Ma
son this morning, when seen at the
headquarters Of the new department
established in the rear Of the Kaiu-
lani school, Palama. Il have had abb
solutely no trouble with the children.
They have taken hold of their work
with a keen interest, which Is very
encouraging" --.-..
The enrolment in the new school
now includes Chinese boy who is
dumb and partly deaf; little Ha-
waiian boy who Is blind; deaf and
dumb Chinese-Hawaiian boy; an Ame-
riean-Hawaiian girl who is deaf and
dumb; Portuguese boy and girl,
brother and sister, both OF whom are
deaf mutes; a Hawaiian girl who Is
deaf and a Chinese girl who is de-
fective in many ways. Since the open
ing of the school, these have attend
ed regularly. There are at least is
more children in Honolulu and other
parts of the territory who are eligible
to enter the school, and these viii
be secured at as early date as posi-
BILE.
When the school was visited this
morning. the younger children were
engaged in making small articles
from paper and raffia. The little blind
boy, who was playing with some
blocks, stands very good chance
of regaining his sight, according to
Miss Mason. He received severe
burn several years ago. which affect
ed his sight, and 1t is believed that
an operation can remedy the defect.
The Portuguese boy was busily engag.
ed in repairing q wicker chair, while
his sister and one of the older Amer
ican-Hawaiian girls we're making bas.
kets.
Miss Mason has quite. an extensive
program OF work outlined for the
children, which is to include the max.
ing of hammocks, baskets, simple fur
niture and many other articles which
may easily be disposed of. The teach
ing of reading and writing, she says,
will come later. Superintendent T. H.
Gibson stated. this morning that, as
soon as the attendance warrants II, an
assistant viii be secured for Miss
Mason He also intimated that the
next legislature probably will be ask,
ed to set aside a small appropriation
for the maintenance Of the work. g
