of Hawaii each mouth was $8,800,
while he noticed that the County of
Onliu received varying amounts,
$20,000 one month and perhaps
$40,000 the next. Chairman Moir
who was to leave the next day for
Honolulu was appointed a commit

torial Auditor regarding the dis
crepency. Supervisor Maknakanc offered a
resolution appropriating $150 from
the Puna Road Tax fund for re
pairs to the Kaola-Kainm ro.nl.
Supervisor Shipman called atten
tion to some of the bills in the
hands of the Finance Committee,
which appeared to be personal
traveling expenses of county offi
cials. The Chair said in his opin
ion the Hoard was not responsible
for these charges. Both Super
visors Fernandez and Desha sup
ported the Chair's opinion.
The committee on Public Health
reported favorably on the appoint

Supervisor Fernandez believed

believed it would wcrk a hard

not go to the expense of cementing

would like to know the opinion of
the Hilo supervisors on the subject
If the ordinance is satisfactory to
them, he would be satisfied.
Desha said there were several
orovisions' in the Ordinance which
lie did not understand, and he
desired more time. Chairman
Moir beleived the proposed ordi
nance was a first class law and was
in interest of the health of the com
munity. He could not see any ob
jectionable paragraph in the entire
Ordinance.
Mr. Stacker spoke up to ex-
disallowed and if the claimant de
sired to have the bill reconsidered,
allow him to make his showing be
fore the Committee.
Supervisor Fernandez believed
I,ocbcnstcin was entitled to his pay,
as the road was now a countv road.
He knew the legislature would re
fuse to consider such a claim. But
he thought the claim should be
presented in the inanncr prescribed
by the ordinance passed at the last
session in August.
There was a disposition to have
a night session in order to get
through with the business of the
Board, but it was finally decided to
grant Supervisors Moir and Woods
leave of absence, and the remaining
members continue on Friday. Ad
journment was taken till 9 a. m.

The following general rules arc
applicable to all cases of dyspepsia
an indigestion:
1. Fat slowly, masticate tho
roughly. 2. Drink fluid an hour before or
two or three hours after meals, ra
ther than with food.
3. Kat at regular hours.
4. If greatly fatigued, lie down
and rest quietly before and after
luncheon and dinner or supper.
5. Avoid as far as possible tak
ing business worries or professional
cares to the table.
6. Take systematic exercise in
the open air. Bicycle and horse
back riding are the best forms.
7. On rising, cold sponging and
vigorous friction of the body are
advisable.
8. The bowels should be kept
open by laxative foods and fluids
rather than by medicines.
9. Avoid too much variety at
one meal. Take meats and vegt
tables at separate meals. W. Gil

Women outnumber men in our
own country, says London Tit-Bits,
and it is a common complaint in
many Biitish towns that "there arc
no men." In watering places like
Bournemouth and Torquay the
number of women residents so
greatly exceeds that of men that
there is very real ground for this
complaint. Yet within thirty miles
of Torquay stands a town, complete
with railway station, post, telegraph
and shops, which, though not ex
clusively inhabited by men, has yet
fully ten times as many males as
female residents. This is Prince
town, 1,400 feet above the sea on
the ridge of Dartmoor. While the
town proper has but 300 to 400 in
habitants of whom rather less than
half are women, there are nearly
1,000 convicts, all men, to say
nothing of a large number of ward
ers, a comparatively small propor
tion of whom arc married.
With the exception of one or
two temporary villages, built of tin
or canvass, in which arc housed
navvies engaged on new water
works and railways, there are no
town or villages in these islands in
which women do not find a home.
Elsewhere, however, there are se
veral such curious settlements.
One is to be tound in Utah, sure
ly the last part of the world where
one would expect to sec a city with
out women. Its name is Sunny
side, and it is inhabited by some
400 men who work in the new col
lieries recently established there.
Most of the men arc married, yet
on no account are they permitted
to bring their wives into the village.
This banishment of the fair sex is
not due to any frcakishness on the
part of employers or men.
reason is a purely business
There is some hitch in the title to
the 3,000 acres on which the village
and mines are situated. The law
of the state of Utah permits fami
lies squattiugs rights on the claim
ed lands, aiuT the company fears
that if the men were allowed to
bring their better halves to Sunny
side claims might be established to
their cabins as permanent places of
abode.
On the borders between China
and Russia in Asia, almost due
south of Lake Baikal, is a good-
sized town known as Maimatchiu,
which is exclusively inhabited by
men. The place has a considera
ble trade, and is a military outpost.
An old law forbids Chinese women
to live in this territory. Indeed,
they may not pass the great wall of
Kalkau or enter Mongolia at all.
"The Prison of Ten Thousand"
is the name given by by the wander
ing Arabs of the districts across
Jordon' to the fortress monastery of
Mar, Saba on the Dead Sea. Not
many years ago there were actually
10,000 monks living in this grim
and mournful retreat, and even to
day there are more than 1,000 left.
The monastery is one of the oldest
in the world, having been founded
some 1 ,300 years ago by Kuthymius,
who lived there in a cave dug in the
rocky wall of the Kedrou ravine.
The fair empress Kudoxia formed a
romantic attainment far this stern
anchorite, and built near by a tower,
which still exists, from which she
might watch him at a distance, for,
true to his vows, Kuthymius utterly
refused ever to see or speak to a
woman.
Now the tower is inhabited by a
watchman, who keeps constant
guard against the incursions of
prowling Arabs. Twice during the
past century the place has been
raided by hordes from the desert.
The monks who live there today
are the most rigorous of any in the
Greek church. , They pass their
lives in everlasting penance, with
no hope or pleasure and no cheer
ful incident. Many of them go
mad from the horror and desolation
of their surroundings. No woman
is permitted to come within sight of
Mar Saba.
News came recently of the burn
ing of Montana C'ty, a good-sized
place in the state of Montana, which
once held over 5,000 inhabitants.
For two'whole days the fire waged,
until the whole place was reduced
to ashes. Small wonder that the
