Easy Way to Get

The trouble with most thin folks
who wish to gain weight is that they

ness goes untouched. You annot get
fat until your digestive tract assimil-
ates the food you eat.
Thanks to a remarkable new scien-
tiac discovery. it is o possible to
combine into simple form h very
elements needed by the digestive or
gans tt help them convert food into
rich, fatladen blood. This master
stroke OF modern chemistry Is calle0

through its regenerative, reconstruc-
tive powers to coax the stomach n
intestines to literally soak up the fart
tening elements of your food and
pass them into the blood, where they
are carried to every starved, broken
down cell and tissue Of your body.
You can readily picture the result
when this amazing transformation has
taken place and you notice how your
cheeks fill out. hollows about your
neck. shoulders n bust disappear
and o take on from 10 to 20 pounds
OF solid, healthy flesh. Sargol is abb

LEAVES.

When autumn's flaming colors
Appear on every hand,
'Tis a joy to tread the winding ways
That lead to fairyland.
The forest path beneath the leaves
Now deeply buried lies;
The round, red sun looks through a
mist
From hazy autumn skies;
A crispy, snappy, singing tang
Pervadcs the bracing air,
And spreads exhiltration
Keen, compelling, everywhere.
But at this season of he year
There's nothing quite SO good
AS to hear the leaves a-rustling
When walking through the wood.
When autumn's dainty fingers
Her box OF paint unfolds,
And touches all the trembling leaves
With russets, reds and colds;
When chestnut burrs have opened
At the first white ouch of frost,
And down among the fallen leaves
Their shining treasures tossed;
When harvests all are %garnered,
And resting time is here.
Though It's the saddest of the seasons,
The fading of the year
Such wistful, pensive, thoughtful
days
Still, all the world seems good.
When We hear the leaves a-rustling
In wandering through the wood.
When autumn trembled at the clutch
OF winters first chill blast,
The north wind whispered to the
leaves
A challenge as he passed.
And one by one they followed him.
And gaily. hand in hand,
He led them in a wild and joyous
Frolic through the land.
Then gently dropped them to their
rest.
To mother earth redeemed.
There. curled up in ZACH others arms.
They fell asleep and dreamed,
And you'll hear them still a-dreaming
OF that frolic. il you should
Listen to their whispering,
When strolling through the wood.

REVISIkG RtNlIUlU'S lBbRHR
From the Republican territorial platform

From the Republican territorial platform:
Greater and broader powers should be accorded
the city and county Honolulu and to this end we
pledge the legislative candidates to empower. by
proper legislation, the people OF Honolulu to revise
their charter convention consisting OF represen'
tatiyes to be chosen by the people.
From the progressive territorial platform:
We believe that the next legislature should call
a convention revise the charter Of incorporation
OF the city and county of honolulu
The Democratic platform will probably also
contain plank calling for a revision of the mu-
nicipaI act under which Honolulu is doing bust
ness.
Nearly two wears ago, in preparation for the
1913 legislature, Governor Frar appointed a
bipartisan committee to draft a charter for
Honolulu The committee, attacking the diff
ficult problem with intelligence and sincerity,
met opposition at the outset from the Demo
cratic members, who insisted that the proposal
for charter revision had not been made in party
platforms during the previous campaigns and
hence did not cmanate from the voters. This
opposition together with some lack of concert
ed effort and "carry through" by the majority,
finally defeated the very strong general senti-
ment for new charter and the matter was not
even presented to the legislature
Since that time, the need for new charter
has become increasingly apparent. The present
municipal structure is a patchwork, built upon
a much-amended city and county act
The tremendous burden of overhead charges,
resulting from many departments, indicates that
Honolulu could adopt with profit some one OF
the several new forms that have been tried and
found successful on the mainland. OF these,
it is safe to say that the city managership plan
has been most generally approved.
Candidates for Honolulu offices and for the
legislature will do well if they give some atten-
ton to this plain need for charter revision. A
definite plan should be worked out, preferably
with the Endorsement of all the public and semi.
public organizations Of the city, and presented
early in the session of the 1915 Legislature.

HONOLULU LOSES A GOOD FRIEND

The death in San Francisco of F. W. Dohr
mann is genuine loss to Honolulu, and the
news that this philosophical businessman has
passed away will be received with regret by the
many in this city who held him in high regard
He was always greatly interested in Honolulu
and Hawaii and never wavered in his faith that
some day this city will be much greater than
some of his colleagues would believe. He car
ried into the commercial life of San Francisco

ton that in marked degree was carried out in
his own extensive business He was the lead
ing spirit in the building up of the Merchants
Association of the Golden Gate city and a
strong advocate of unity in commercial organi-
zations About year ago, when the Cham
Der of Commerce and the Merchants .Associa-
ton of this city were hesitating over the pro-
posal for a merger, Mr.. Dohrmann, then a
visitor here, spoke strongly in favor of the plan.
The Star Bulletin was then carrying on a pub
licity campaign on behalf of the proposed COM
bine and published interview from Mr. Dohro
mann, setting forth the benefits that had come
to San Francisco from similar uniication and
the desirability of such a merger in Honolulu.

doubtful members of the local bodies Mr.
DOhrmann was in Hawaii only few months
ago when he was advised of the grave nature
of his disease With characteristic attention
to method and with great mental fortirude, he
went to San Francisco, arranged his business
affairs and composed himself for an operation

JAPANESE CRITICISM OF THO MONROE DOCTRINE

/ An altogether unfavorable comment on the
Monroe doctrine, from a source that demands
consideration. is voiced by the Shin Nhon. a
magazine Of Japan which the Japanese pre-
micr, Count Gkuma, uses to set forth his views
On questions of national and international i'm
portance.
| Though the editorial criticism of the Monroe
doctrine is ostensibIy from the pen of the eli-
tor Ryutaro Nagai, it is not to be doubted that
the views are ind0rsed by the Japanese prime
minister. The article says in part:
The M6nroe doctrine has already outlivcd its
usefulness. When the Latin-American repub-
lies were still in their infancy. and were not
able to maintain their independence the Monroe
doctrine helped maintain their independence
and assisted their development. Yes. in
deed it has preserved the republics cX-
stence and was milk for its growth.
But now the Latin-.American republics have
already grown it would only be Il source
Of various troubles if the republic is to
be protected or drilled by another nation. Es-
pecially, if United States uses force and inter
feres in the spirit of punderer, the trouble
will be still greater.
"The Monroe doctrine is an instrument for
leading the world back to the past, in OppOsi
ton to the tendency of the time to make this
world world for humanity in general The
contention that to allow the powers to inter
fere in the affairs of South America could
quicken the rivalry among the pCwerS thereby
leading to wars, is like the contention that to
allow the japanese to- labor in Australia and
the Chinese in America would be to fermrnt in
ternational difficulties. Both are erroneous
views To be acquainted with each other is
foundation for understanding each other and to
understand each other is beginning of trust
ing in each other. Is there any instance where
two men, trusting in each other, could not be on
friendly terms? If every race were to remain
secluded in their own original territory: srgre-
gated from others, with no opportunity to ex
change ideas or cooperate in the Development
of resources, how could the races come To know
each other and cultivate friendly sentiments?
To attempt to limit the sphere of activity of
man perforce in their national territorial do
mains is to work against the tendency of the
times Such an attempt will not appeal to man
kind in general as a binding law" /
