BAND TO GET new
/. CAPS ANDCOAIS
|. But NO TROUSERS

The Hawaiian band will be fur
nished with new coats to wear at the
funeral of the late Queen Liliuokalani
next Sunday and perhaps new caps,
but they will have to go without new
trousers and get along with their old
ones for the occasion, according to Su.
pervisor E. A. Mott-Smith. AS chair
man of the finance committee Mr..
Mott-Smith said this morning that the
civic finances could not stand the
drain we're entire new uniforms to be
purchased for the band, and that while
at the meeting of the board tomorrow
noon he will be willing to approve of
any appropriation for new coats and
perhaps for new hats, he would oppose
it if trousers were added. 49,. i"
The band has been wearing uni
forms purchased two years ago, and
these are now in more or less shabby
condition. We would be only too
glad to let the band have new uni
forms, but the civic finances cannot
stand the DRAIN remarked Mr.. Mott.
Smith. ''The boys ought to have new
uniforms, but they will have to wait
until the new year"
What if after you get them hats
and coats they refuse to wear the old
trousers? What them" he was asked.
They'll have to wear the old ones
or else-kilts,' replied the chairman
of the finance committee. You may
think I'm close, but we are trying to
finish on the right side of the ledger.

An Unseemly Controversy

General comment upon the sensational fight de-
veloping over Queen Liliuokaanis estate is hardly
Gathering to those engaged in its inception.
Hardly had the last breath left the queens body,
hardly had the last beat fickered out in her worn
heart, than there came intimations of litigation
which, under the circumstances, assumes the char
acteristcs of squabbe.
The last great legal battle over a wil-that of
the late Thelma Parker Smart - left a very bad
taste in the mouth. This may easily be as bad or

When Billy appeared with the
book he was met with a negative
that would have caused even the
most hardened of book agents to
beat a hasty retreat. But Billy es-
pied the small brother looking curl
OUsly at the volume, so he opened at

But as he was leaving she let him

about the book. He answered he

one-half per cent, is fed to pigs,
chickens and other animals. Now.
make little calculation. Suppose in
your town the bakers put out ten
thousand loaves a day, small town
requires as many, there is one hun
dred and fifty loaves fed to the pigs
and chickens; extend this calculation.
There are bakers in our large cities
who turn out at least half a million
loaves a day. That means $500 for
the pigs.
1t needs no argument to those who
realize what a shortage of wheat
means to convince them that this
leakage must be stopped. All that
thinking people ask is how it can be
done. The bakers themselves are be-
ginning to take steps. Inquiry among
the bakers show that at least eighty
per cent. are in favor of stopping the
bread returns, that is of selling to
the retail bread dealer only what he
believes he can dispose of. That if he
orders more, it is his loss; if less, it
is to his customers inconvenience.
And here the women come in. They
are the broad buyers, and their
plan means that they must make
and do it in such business-like fash
ion that they will not complain to
their grocer, but they will accept the
fact as a proof of their own lack of
business foresight in ordering.
This really important saving can
only be effected if the women of the
country generally back it up. The Wo-
mans Committee of the Council of
National Defense ask the women OF
the country Immediately to begin to
order bread for twentyfour hours in
stead of for temporary needs. 1t asks
them to explain carefully to their
neighbOrs who may not have been
reached in any way the reason for this
request. Intelligent women must ev-
eryWhere back up the bakers and
bread dealers in the nO-return plan.
If they will do this We can save the
one and One-half per cent. that now
goes to the pigs and chickens. 1t will
be putting this many loaves a day into
the hands of hungry women and chill
dren and fighting soldiers, and will be
one element in that great task that We
have before us of so handling the
wheat crops of the world that every
man and woman in all the Allied
world will have enough to eat in the
long and hard struggle before us.

= HAT should we do if we are
tRf catching cold? That means
ii we start with sneezing
and chills. Promptly empty
the bowels. either by taking a strong
laxative, as EPSON salts or castor oil
or SOAP enemas, the latter several
times, 50 as to make them thoroughly
effective. The second action should be
to take a boiling hot bath or a blanket
wrap. The latter is made by dipping
a sheet into very hot water. which is
then wrapped around the patient and
followed by at least two blankets and
as many hot lids or bottles as the
house avails. Give the patient plenty
of hot lemonade to drink, and when a
copious sweat is produced take care
not to chill the patient by carefully
rubbing each part of the body with
cold water. while the rest of the body
is well covered. But do not omit the
cold rub afterward. Remember to
have the head well covered with cold
congresses.
Light diet. consisting of fruit juices
with little sweetening, should be given.
All solid food should be avoided. This
will assist greatly In fighting the cold.
Fasting Is like housecleaning-giving
the bodily machinery time to get rid OF
all waste. If throat and nose begin
to feel dry, so as to be uncomfortable,
do not neglect to moisten these parts.
A very good compound recommended
by one of the best authorities on the
matter is the following:
Oil Of eucalyptus. twenty drops.
Menthol. ten grains.
Liquid paraffin, two ounces.
Dissolve and mix. Use in atomizer.
If chilliness prevails the patient
should spend a day in bed. 1t is both
cheaper and more comfortable to do
this. for it avoids complications. Once
the cold toxins have got into your sys-
tenn you must expect serious discOm-
fort for some time. Nervous diseases,
heart trouble and kidney diseases have
often been started by n of these ap-
p%arently harmless colds
If your nostrils are particularly sore
and the secretions very profuse salt
water ought to be snnffed up the nose,
but never if the cold i in a very severe
stage for fear of injecting the ears. II
you use the doucia : :tss always keep
the mouth open. This does away with
the danger of having the solution run
to the ears. A disinfectant and sooth-
ing solution follows:
Menthol, twenty grains.
Camphor, tWenty grains.
Liquid yaseline. TWO ounces.
Mix and label. Use in atomizer n

ABOUT BILLIARD BALLS.
Why They Click When They Strike
One Another,

What makes the click when two
billiard balls or other spheres of any
solid material strike each other? Pro-
fessor Banerji has found that the dis
tribution of the intensity of the sound
in various directions around the line
of impact is very remarkable, and he
has found methods Of measuring the
force of these sounds SO exactly that
he is able to set down the following
conclusions:
The sound. he explains. is not due.
as has been hitherto thought, to the
vibrations of the spheres. which in any
ordinary material. such as ivory. wood
or metal, are both q high in pitch TO
be audible and too faint in intensity
to be heard. The click is due to air
vibrations caused by the reversal of
the motion of the spheres as a whole.
He has ascertained that the intensi-
ty is at its highest or maximum In a
line joining the centers of the spheres.
1t gradually diminishes almost to zero
at an angle of about siXty-seven de-
grees with a line joining the centers,
when it again increases to a second
maximum at an angle of ninety de-
grees. In other words. the click is
loudest at the very point of contact OF
the spheres, which is what we would
naturally expect.
