 Hawaii, ] N! They In Hula

t-ttfFa'1
 HONOLULU, Feb. 7.,r-- To meet people, the word hula means Ha- waii's rhythmic dance, but to a Hawaiian language purist it may mean anything from a palpitating heart to raising something with a lever.
 So says Leila Holt, assistant ter ritorial archiyist, citing a l00.year- old Hawaiian dictionary as author ity.. The ancient volume, published in 1886, was discovered during a re- classification of the archieves.
 Hula, the dictionary says, means, among other things, a., swelling:, a protuberance under the arm; a twitching, as of the eye; an invol- untary muscular movement; to pal pitate,, as the heart; to throb. as an artery; to go through a solid sub stance; to expel or eject; and to raise swith ia lever.

THREE LEVELS

This springs frocks have been de- signed for the 1888 figure This means that bust and hip measure ments are the same and the waist is 10 inches smaller.
 Many women will have to do little trimming here or there to at tain that figure If your problem is in the bust measurement, here are some recommendation by Ann Del afield New York specialist in re- shaping figures.
 Lifting the bust line may be all that is needed. Exercise alone may be sufficient. but if one is inclined to fitness in the bust, exercising should be preceded by dieting. The chief item to watch'in this kind of diet is salt-keep away from it. Salt makes the system retain liquids as little as twentieth of an ounce Of salt will store up two or three pounds of liquid
 In exercises for the bust. gravity will help you if you assume the beauty angle" before starting. This angle comes if you lie on the floor with your feet higher than the rest of your body and your hips propped by two or three pillo%s so they will be higher than your head but lower than your feet. Head and shoulders should rest on the floor. and your arms should be flung out at ease.
 Tense your chest muscles and raise your chest as high as you can. Hold Chat position as long as pos sible Repeat this exercise few minutes each day.
 You can check on the effects of the exercise if you measure your

'CIutching Hand' Will SCour Sea
 For Lost Gold
by Aaelaide Kerr

GLASGOW, Jan. IT. - A Dutch engineer and his mechanical 'clutching hand are going after the 30,0Gp,OC5 gold ducats that may have been resting at the bottom of Tobermory Bay since the Spanish Armada.
 The inventor, Herr Van Wiener will attempt to find the gold in the wreckage of the Galleon Doque Flor enca, off the Isle of Null, early in the year.
 The galleon, part of the mighty Armada of Phillip of Spain, sailed to war with Queen Elizabeth's fleet in 1888.
 When the Armada was annihil- ated, the Duque F'lorenca was swept by a gale toward the Scottish coast, where the indignant islanders of Null scuttled her because her mas ter refused to pay for stores he got.
 There she has lain ever since, defying the efforts of many the treasure seeker who based his hopes on the story that a Greenock diver in 1865 found "one paper of Latin extracts out of the Spanish records that there were 30 millions of Cashe on board the said Ship, and it tells it lay under ye Sell of the Gunroome. '
 A fine piece of plate in silver and gold, daggers, scabbords, bones, a few coins and a cannon ball have been taken from the galleon at var ious times-but never the thirty million.

him last chance to urge his pet
measures on a Congress which has
been, in the main, responsive to his
requests; for the Congress about to
be elected will not take Office until
January 8, 1899, and a session called
now would include all the lame
ducks" who will have been defeat
ed.
Some smart political prognostica-
tiers figure that the President might
get his Reorganization bill thorugh
this Congress, whereas it seems to
face certain failure in the next.
If the European war situation
seems to be affecting American in
terest, it is quite probable that a
special session will be called to con-
slider such things as revision of our
neutrality laws, further strengthen
ing our naval air force, and our fl
nancial relations with European ma
tons. Reports which are widely
credited are reaching Washington
from sources usually trustworthy
that the British government has
prepared a proposal to submit to
the United States for the payment
of their war debt on terms which,
it is stated, are satisfactory to the
Administration.
If such proposal is received it
might stand more chance of accept
ance by the outgoing Congress than
by the new one and SO in itself
might provide sufficient reason for
a special session.

FULL-FASHIONED HOSIERY
MILLS MOVING SOUTH

Charlotte, NJ C.-The movement
of full-fashioned hosiery mills from
Pennsylvania and other Northern
states to the South has taken very
definite form and is growing, &C.
cording to David Clark, editor Of
the Textile Bulletin and the South
ern Knitter.
Mr.. Clark states that in recent
months the following North Caro-
lima towns have secured full-fash-
Toned hosiery mills, the machinery
in most cases coming from Penn
sylvania mills, Bberdeen, Concord,
Fayetteville, Gastonia, Gibsonville,
High Point, Liberty, Marion, Mon
roe, Morganton, Mt. Holly, Pilot
Mountain, Ramseur, Randleman, ST.
er City, Tryon, Valdese and Wilson.
During the same period ten full
fashioned mills have found locations
in Virginia, one in South Carolina,
seven in Georgia, one in Alabama,
four in Florida, three in Mississippi
and three in Tennessee.
Full-fashioned hosiery mills are
especially desirable because of the
character of the work and their high
wage scale. ...
Mr.. Clark states that he has re-
ports to the effect that a number of
other Pennsylvania full-fashioned
hosiery mills have definitely decid-
ed to move South but have not yet
selected their locations
