Older BUT STRONGER

To be healthy at seventy, prepare at
forty, is sound advice, because in the
strength of middle life we too often forget
that neglected colds, or careless treat
ment of slight aches and pains, simply
undermine strength and bring chronic
weakness for later years.
To be stronger when older. keep your
blood pure and rich and active with the
strength building and blood-nourishing
properties of SCOTS Emulsion which is
food, tonic and a medicine to keep your
blood rich, alleviate rheumatism and
avoid sickness. No alcohol in SCOTS.

FAMILY LOSES LIFE
FIGHTING IN FRANCE

Lieut.. Donald Macintosh, relative
of a Puunene, Maui, family has been
killed in action on the French front,
according to recent advices received
from Scotland. The Blairgowrie Ad-
vertiser gives this account of his heor'
ic passing: -
Lieut.. Donald Macintosh, late Sea-
forth Highlanders, whose name is in
cluded in the latest list of recipients
of the Victoria Cross, was the only
son of Col. Donald ]. Macintosh, C.
B., M. v. O., medical superintendent
at GLASGOW western division. He was
81 years of age and was educated at
Glasgow academy, st. Ninian's, Moi
fat, and Fettes college. He was
wounded in April of last year and was
killed in action on April 18th of this
year.
Telling the story Of how the late
lieutenant won his v. c., a sergeant
of the regiment said,, Without ex'
ception, Lieut.. Macintosh was the
bravest officer who ever led men into
action" -. :. ....."

RED CROSS WOOL

Mrs. Henry F. Damon of the local
Red Cross workers announces that
large consignment of Red Cross
wool, known as standard gray and
khaki, is expected in few days. This
is part of a million-pound pur-
chase made by the government earl
Ter this year.
THE yarn is to be used for the
making of sox, muffiers, wristlets and
sleeveless sweaters" said Mrs. Da-
mon.
I'VE hope that just as many ladies
as can will help with this knitting for
there is sure to be great call for
these garments among the SOLDIERS
during January, February and March.
I'VE realize that knitting, of this
sort calls for certain sacrifice, for
they are not things that can be made
in a half.hour, but we believe the wo-
men of Honolulu and the other islands
will be glad to. sacrifice of their time
and labor for this work. The men
in the trenches must be kept warm"
Mrs. Damon says that it is an easy
matter to learn sox knitting and that
classes will be formed to teach the
standard pattern that must be fol-
lowed. -....

CLASS MAIL WILL GO
TO HONOLULU FORTS

Postmaster D. H. MacAdam has re-
ceived permission from the postal de-
partment in Washington to continue
to distribute uncalled for second-class
mail matter among the military posts
and hospitals of this island. This sub
|iect was taken up with the department
authorities some weeks ago when Or
ders were received to send all such
uncalled mail to the states. for sub
sequent transmission to the American
expeditionary forces.
In the past such mail has always
been bundled up and sent out to the
military hospitals and posts for the
beneat of soldiers. stationed here. The
Honolulu postmaster informed the de-
7 partment of this practise, and advised
z that although We are long way from
z the battlefront we have many Sam
e mics here to whom the uncalled sec
q ond class mail matter is of much ad-
e vantage aud enjoyment"
The department agreed with his rec
ommendation and the former order
mas been rescinded. so far as affects
a aonoiulu, and all such mail will con-
unue to 90 to the Oahu posts and

BARRIERS USING BAY
RUM CONTAINING WOOD
ALCOHOL UNDER FIRE

Food Inspector A. w. Hansen Of the
territorial board of health is begin
ming a campaign against barber shops
that may be using bay rum contain
ing denatured or wood alcohol. This
is in line with the general investiga'
ton being carried out by his Office
on bay rum as a result of the recent
death of a soldier who drank some OF
the liquid.
BY no means were all of the local
drug stores selling bay rum made
from wood alocohl, it is said, and like
wise not all the barber shops are us.
ing the cheaper fluid, but some that
have been found doing so have been
warned to get rid of it Immediately.
There is one bottle on exhibition at
the food inspectors office, labeled bay
rum and giving the name Of local
barber shop. The liquid smells much
more like furniture varnish than a
face lotion, however Analysis of the
two kinds of alcohol is said to be com.
paratiyely simple to determine which
is which. IL
As the health officials have stated,
wood alcohol is a deadly poison and
its use in bay rum has been known
to lead to blindness and severe nausea

LIQUOR DEALERS PROFUSE IN THEIR

we know that there are 150 blind
pigs being run around here. How
they get their booze, We don't exactly
know, but they are getting 1t rom me

The wholesalers have done every.
thing to assist the commissioners in
enforcing the military regulations re-
garding the sale of liquor TO men n

unteered to close at I O'Clock. We do
not think this regulation Of the board,
limiting the amount of liquor We can
sell, and requiring a acquisition
signed by the purchaser and o. KID
by the inspector, is fair to U.S."
Chairman Cooke pointed out that It
was now possible for a purchaser to
visit any number of dealers and sign
fictitious names on the store books.
If the man reselIs to q blind pig, the
dealer IL liable to run afoul of the
law. This proposed regulation OF the
board takes all the responsibility from
the dealer, he said.
Attorney Robert Breckons, repre-
senting the wholesalers, made a, strong
kick against the regulation, because he
thought 1t was an affront to the per-
sonal liberty Of an American citizen.
Besides, he didn't think the board had
any right to place one man in author
ity to say whether or not a citizen
could buy booze.
Among the others who registered
protest were: Farm Cornn, on be-
half OF the Chinese liquor dealers;

and T. Sumida, and H. Mkt, who Pc

Not a Single Consumer, How
ever, Kicks on Rules to Re-
strict Bulk Sales

Declaring that the proposed regula-
tions, presented to the public yester,
day afternoon by the liquor license
commissioners are unfair. both to the
dealer and the consumer, represen'
tation of the Wholesale liquor deal
ers' association registered a strong
protest against the adoption and sub
mitted a plan of their own. Attor'
neys for the wholesalers and for
large number Of Japanese and CHI
nese dealers were there, and each pro-
test presented was aimed TO save the
rights and privileges Of the indivld-
ual consumer. The ordinary citizen,
however, was there not to register
protest but to uphold the commits
sioners in their efforts to suppress
the illicit selling Of booze. All pro-
tests registered came from persons
directly interested in the liquor bust
ness.
The board of commissioners lis.
tened to all suggestions and com
ments on the proposed regulations,
and took the matter under advise
ment They then went into executive
session and decided that no definite
action on the matter will be taken
until next Thursday.
It was planned that this new reglf
lation might be put in force on Oc-
tober l, but owing to the illness OF
Inspector w. H. Hutton, who is suf'
fering from typhoid fever, the plan
cannot be put into action until Octo-
Der Is.
The meeting opened with reading
of the regulations by Chairman Rich
ard A. Cooke.
D. H. Lewis of Loveioy & Co. read
the protest of the wholesalers, as
follows: .-. ..-..
Moved that the wholesalers unani'
mously protest against the adoption
of the proposed regulation as unfair,
and that if the board insists on some
change in the regulations, the follow
ing, while still unfair, would accom-
plish the results desired by the board,
with less unfairness to the dealers
and purchaser:
Let a regulation be adopted,
should the board insist on some
change, requiring all dealers to make
daily report to the inspector OF al
sales made to purchasers, other than
| licensees, or shipments outside oil
either Honolulu, or Oahu, as the board
may wish"
Asked by Mr.. Cooke for specific rea
sons why the rules of the commission
were unfair, Mr.. Lewis replied that
a large number of consumers who
were in the habit of calling for small
quantities of liquor, and others who
telephoned in orders, would be cut
off from buying. ..... .....: 49,.

put up with that inconvenience. The

can sign a number of acquisitions in

MANY of the customers come tc
the stores in automobiles, and want
immediate delivery" protested Mr.

on his license and none of US would
knowingly sell to blind pigs"

CHARM

YOUNG girls asks:

n YOUNG girls asks:
~ How can ! acquire charm and
IA become an interesting converse
tionalist?"
Alas, my child, you are propounding
a riddle that no one has ever yet
been wise enough to answer. No
one knows just exactly in what
charm consists, or what are the
strange, mysterious and magnetic
qualities that draw all hearts to some
one particular individual, and that
makes every eye brighten and every
heart leap with Joy at his or her COM
ing.
Some people are born with this
great gift. They are the darlings OF
the gods, and the earth is theirs, and
the fullness thereof. Love and
friendship. place and preferment, in
vitations and treats, all the things
that less fortunate people toll and
mol for, are thrown as a tribute at
their feet, for charm is more potent
spell to conjure with than either beau
ty or brains. ...s.
But let not the girl to whom nature
has been a cruel stepmother, who
has withheld this magical endowment
from her, mourn as one without hope.
For while to be headliner among
chsrmers one must have undoubtedly
been born a charmer, still 1t is pos
sible for any girl who has intelligence
and determination to understudy the
charmer and give such lifelike imi.
tation of her that few will ever know
that her fascination is handmade in
stead of being the spontaneous thing.
So far as charm can be defined, 1t
consists In making other people feel
good, putting them into q pleasant
glow Of satisfaction with themselves
and the universe. To do this, 1t is
necessary to make of oneself, II one
would please. neutral background

BRTTUJNSLEAVE

Tears and thrills, music and flowers,
weeping women and enthusiastic army
recruits were all strangely inter
mingled into a scene that was thrice
martial, festive and melancholy, when
the Niagara sailed this afternoon for
Vancouver, with 3S Hawaiian residents
who have answered the call to the
British colors.
The British recruits are nearly all
well known in the islands and all have
been active members of the British
club. Scores of their friends and rela-
tives were present to see them de-
part, many a mother, wife, and sweet
heart struggling against that age-old
double emotion of pride and sorrow

gSod bye to volunteer. s:as-=
Typical of Hawaii we're the abun-
dance of leis worn by the departing
Britishers. All were supplied with a
lei by the British club, but many were
scarcely discernible because OF the
number of leis enwrapped about them
by friends and relatives. Each of the
recruits was also presented with

men is expected to go on the 6ext

In honor of the departing British
recruits the Hawaiian band was pres

added to the martial air with patriotic
music Of both America and Great
Britain.
