submarine Wonders Of Hawaii

Nowhere i'm this wide world are
there such rainbow fish as in Hawaii,
Of every color and shade and hue. II
there is any tint or graduation OF
tlnts in the prism that is not reflected
in the scales of the anny tribes OF the
waters around the islands, I should
like TO see Il. A visit 10 the Honolulu
aquarium (far superior as It is to the
world-famous one in Naples), or 10
the Coral Gardens" where we see
the FISH through a glass-bottomed boat
disDorting themselves In their own
front yards, so 20 speak, are excur-
sions one never forgets. That God IN
His infinite love should paint the lily
seems wonderful; but that He should
paint the FISH OF the sea as gorgeous
~ and as dellcately as the petal OF q
flower Is surprisingly wonderful. The
flowers Of Hawaii declare the glory OF
God. and the FISH showeth His handi-
wOrk!--Christian Herald.

MIDDLEMAN, NOT FARMER,
CHARGES SEVEN PROFITS

Surface Greek Champion Many
crimes are laid at the farmers door few
of which are jus, or true. The latest
charge comes from the United States
commissioner of weights and measures
and places the blame for the present
high cost of living upon the western
farmer. The method used to force this
high cost is said to be underestimated
crops. He says the farmers knowing
ly concealed at least 25 per cent Of their
wheat crops" and makes the same as
sertion with regard to potatoes, onions
and cabbage. 1t may be a supposedly
clever method to cover up the inefficien-
cy of the government crop reports. but
few will believe the yarn and will con-
tinue to place the blame where it be-
longs, namely, the commission or mid
dlemen- There are too many commits
sions between the grower and the con-
sumer and the ultimate price is entirely
out of proportion to the price received
by the farmer. Even with the present
good returns to the grower the consum-
er is paying far too much for the neces-
sities Of life. Until the government
recognizes this fact and finds remedy
we will continue to have high cost of
living in the large centers. In the
meantime it is useless to abuse the farm
ing class and blame them for something
for which they are not responsible.
