The formal announcement that n,
A. Schaefer & Co., either on Decem-

liquor department has been issued by
the firm. and makes the second big
Honolulu concern in the past few
weeks to go out of the liquor business.
The date when the company viii

on the stock on hand. it was stated
first several days ago in the Star

templating this move, but it did not
reach a decision until this week. The
reason for this given by the company
is the difficulty of obtaining sufficient
stock because of the war.

One on His Reverence.

A young factory hand and his girl
went to get married. They got as far
as the church, when he found out he
hadn't enough money to pay the we'd
ding fee. The clergyman would not
marry them, saying: mo money, no
wedding"
So the girl asked would he wait
till she went home for the money.
The clergyman said yes"
In little while the girl returned
with the money and the knot was duly
tied.
The girl now said to the clergyman:
Can anyone oppose our union?"
To which he replied:
Nobody, my daughter. Heaven
bless you"
The girl said:
"Then there's the pawn ticket for
your hat and coat, which / took from
the vestfy and pawned"
Collapse of his reverence.
