HONOLULUS new
THOUGHT field -.
IS BROADENING

Honolulu has the honor of starting
the first New Thought coffee house in
the world. and OF having paugurated
4 nationwide and a worldwide move
ment which contemplates a New
Thought coffee house in every city in
the world. After years of teaching
New Thoughters have come to realize
that theirs is regenerative work and
consequently {se have decided to take
care of the needs of the inner man Of
down-and-outeFs who viii naturally
drift to our coffee housessand attempt
to instill in Them success thoughts
that viii return. them to the world OF
desirable citizens" Thus spoke Mrs.
M. Moncrief, Who introduced DR.. Julia
Seton at the eBijou theater yesterday
moon.
Dr.. Seton's lecture to several hun
:rred business men and women ON the
jsaRbject of E-fThes Key; to Health.
Wealth and Success is said by her
local followers to be her best.
while We have known for centuries
that it is out; birthright to succeed
in life, only now are we beginning to
know the how Of achieving this sue
cess" said Or. Seton.
After briefly mentioning wealth,
health, fame land love as some of the
things which measure success to the
average individual, the lecturer de-
fined the power of commanding sue
cess as that quality ,of consciousness
in the individual which knows what he
-wants, and helps him to get what
he wants when he wants it, keep it as
long as he wants it and get rid of it
as soon as he is finished with it and
ready for something else" On the
other hand, that other stream of HUI
mainly, the submerged stream, has
that quality of consciousness which
brings disease, poverty, suffering and
failure. And each individual con-
trolls his own consciousness"
The lecturer explained her work as
giver of success treatments by
likening the lending of her own sue
cess consciousness to her patients
temporarily to the lending of book
for the inspirational benefit the Dor
rover might receive. =

Editor Honolulu Star-BulIetin, ..-:
Dear Sir:-Referring to a column
appeared in your last Saturdays is
sue headed Local Chinese to hold raj
lyafter victory" in the last paragraph
of which you quoted that TT is rumor-
ed that Consul Tszang Woohuan has
received a cable from China that if
he is wise he W not oppose any
movement on the part of the Nation
alist party, ETC. | now beg to say
that such a statement is absolutely
untrue. 1t is fact, however, that
ment, it is outside of my duty limit to
oppose any movement on the part of
the Chinese residents in these islands.
The celebration on Saturday was
brought about by Geographic stories
circulated in the town by the United
Chinese Society in printed papers
that the governor of Canton had been
assassinated and that that capital city
was in the hands of the Revolutionist
party. These stories would only
amuse non-Chinese who read them,
but worry many who have families
and property in Canton as a matter
of fact On that day innumerable
telephnne ealA and personal visits
were made 8stAa Consulate inquiring
for true ifAtaf6SGpntAJp, and many made
requests tbaE snd send cable
to my gorernG ft to find out the
truth This request has been COM
piled with, and late Yesterday evening
/ received cable reply saying that
Canton is quiet and the paper stories
are absolutely untrue. For humanity
sake consider it my duty to ask you
to kindly insert these lines in your
valuable paper. -:

TRAINED MEN FOR PUBLIC OFFICE.

Universities were urged to establish depart
menrs to train men for public service, at the con-
Ference Of universities held at Boston some time
ago. 1t was argued that expert knowledge is
just as much required lor the civil official as for
the clvil engineer, the lawyer, or the doctor.
Probably most people would admit theoreti-
cally The correctness OF this view. Yet with the
Ideas entertained by a very large section of the
voters, it is a difficult matter to carry out the
prineipie.
In many cases it works this way. "A man has
held acertaln public position for say 10 years.
lie should have acquired exeprt skill in perform
ing his work. Yet if some new candidate wants
the job, a great many voters would say that the
new man should have it. They argue that the
former incumbent has had his turn at the public
pay roll long enough, and that he should get out
and let some one else have a chance. The fact
that the new man as a result of his inexperience
might perform his duties in a bungling manner
detrimental to the public service, is overlooked.
This tends to add to the high cost of government,
local, state and national.
Of course, this is no argument for indefinite
retention of positions by public officials. Public
services, lacking the incentive of individual ef-
fort, are often inetficiently. Sometimes if the
for ordinary common sense, a new man brings in
new enthusiasm, and occasional changes may be
desirable.
But there is a very large class of the public
service, where the public ought to be educated up
to the idea of expecting and demanding trained
men who know their business, and who shall be
rewarded for faithfulness by security of position
during good behavior. The mar who works de-
votedly for the public good for a term of years,
and acquires a mastery over a function calling for
intelligence and experience ought not to be kicked
cut merely to please some politician.

THE LITTLE THINGS OF LIFE.

It is always the merest trif1es rather than
the big things of life which indicate the manners
and tastes of the average person. A glazing So
cal error, a particularly rude action or tactless
speech are not made with too great frequency, but
other less obtrusive faults are often committed
sometimes solely through ignorance or want of
thought.
1t is just as grave a mistake to be too polite
as to be abominably rude. The painstaking polite
person is very trying to encounter, for extremes
often meet, and he generally succeeds in being
actually illbred. For instance, there is always the
man who in the mistaken idea that a woman
should precede him, allows her fight her way
lrst into a crowded train, descend unaided and
walk before him into a restaurant that is rather
full. He fondly imagines that he is being ex-
c~eedingly polite, and it is only when the errors
OF his ways have been pointed out that he sud-
denly realizes how aggravating he must have
proved to the women he has had the pleasure of
Removing his right glove before shaking
hands with a lady; raising his hat when he offers
a damsel his seat in a car; carefully plotting his
fair companion across a crowded street; walking
on the outside of the pavement and refraining
from sitting when talking to a lady who happens
to be standing, are all instances of those little
things which mark the good breeding and
thoughtfulness of a man. Unfortunately, in some
cases, these things do not come by instinct, but
rather through the hard school of experience.

-~t Thirty six hours after the close Of the polls
Tuesday the result OF the, Presidential election
was in doubt. The election Is one that will be long
remembered as the most complicated in the his
EIHM Of the United States. Some elections have
EAkeek Closer Perhaps but never before since the
advent of the telegraph and telephone systems
throughout the country, has an election gone thlr-
ty. hours after the closing of the polls without a
-saefnite knowledge of at least the ELECTORAL vote
in two thirds OF the states. 2sF
BAT one O clock this morning it was generally
understood that Wilson had Isl %electoriaii votes
and Hughes 1874. These figures were not official.
Several states listed in each the Democratic and
Republican columns were not fully decided at the
Oh6ur mentioned, though the vote seemed to indl-
cate shat they belonged in these columns where
they were placed.
The election has been one of many complica-
tons. PRESIDENTS without number have been
broken. States that have always gone Republican
have gone Democratic and just the other way
atARfbbund. 1T clearly indicates that a great up
lheayall j, the political history of the United
States IS approaching.
-n1 In the Senate the Democrats have lost four
seats according to the best information available.
2DhR democrats continue to Control the Upper
House of Congress. In the Lower House the Re-
publicans have gained several of the seats now oc-
.cppied, by the Democrats, though many OF the
Congressional races have not been heard from and
sthe exact outcome is not known.
