$3.50, 900 MORE ALLOWED
FOR PUBLIC BUILDINGS

Estimates which include an addi'
tional appropriation of $250,000 for
public buildings in Honolulu were
submitted by the treasury department
at the opening of congress yesterday,
according to advices received from
Washington. AS no, definite details
were given in the reports that reached
this city late yesterday, it is not
known whether the money is intended
for a new federal building here or the
proposed war department headquar-
tiers.
In view of the fact that 1t was the
treasury department that submitted
the estimates, local authorities believe
that the money Is intended for the con-
struction of the new federal building
on the Irwin site The original appro-
priation was $1,250,0O0. Directly be-
hind the federal building will be the
new army department building, and
the hope that at last Honolulu may
house her federal officials, lighthouse,
internal revenue, customs and United
States courts under one roof is ma
terialiZing.

"A FOOL AND HIS MONEY"
The World Is Better Off When They
Are Parted and the Cash Is in
Pockets of Wise Man.

A fool and his money are soon part
ed. That's right
The best thing that can happen to a
fools money is to get in the pockets of
wise man. So don't shed tears, dear
reader, when you hear that a Penns-
grove man "blows in" $4,000 in one
day or spends $1,000 for few extra
suits of clothes, says Girard in the
Philadelphia Ledger.
When a spendthrift eats IS worth of
terrapin and calls for more the money
doesn't go down his throat. Bless you,
no; because it goes to the hotel man,
who scatters those 800 cents to the
four winds.
[ hear the thoughtless sigh when
they read about somebody's giving a
monkey dinner at Newport. But l ask
you if getting rio of his money as fast
as possible is not the very best thing
which monkey-dinner promoter could
do with it?
When man or woman has not the
sense to spend money wisely, why, the
sooner and faster it goes the better for
the rest of the world
The worst thing anybody can do with
money is to lock it up. Wise ones
make their cash work harder than any
slave tOiled on a cotton plantation.
Even a slave had time to sleep, but
sensible man, no matter whether he
have ten or ten million dollars, keeps
it on the treadmill all day and all night
and every day of the year.
Hence your spendthrift when he or

cash from one treadmiI where it is not
needed to score of different mills
where it is needed.
So instead of reviling these lavish
sounds say to them God bless you"

greater by all they had learned and

that suffering, and could not have
been captured at any smaller price.
But life, of course, cannot be made
