ccptancc of the bible in the public
schools of that state. "Mauv ot
the children in the public schools
of this country are obsolutely igno
rant of the real nature of God, or
the elements of Christianity," says 1
one of the prime movers in t'-e
new plan. With the variety of Gods j
now in this Territory, it would he:
difficult to see what would be the!
outcome of a mixture of Gods and
intellect.
ADVANTAGE
OF
EDUCATION
Vn must admit tliat
many men have ex
isted o f admirable
dispiisition and virtue
who, without learn
ing, bv the almost divine instinct
of their own mere nature, have
been with their own record, as it
were, moderate and wise men. We
may even add this: that very often
nature without learning has had
more to do with leading men to
credit and to virture than learning
when not assisted by a good,
natural disposition. And we might
also contend that when, to an ex
cellent and admirable natural dis
position, there is added a certain
system of training of education,
than from that combination arises
a n extraordinary perfection of
character.
The only way to reduce the cost
of living is by dying.
The Frisco Railroad Co., has
been indicted for overcharges on
coffin shipments. This is certainly
a grave charge.
In the- history of Kauai there
I has never yet been a generous deed
of more importance and everlast
ing good to our young peopio,
than the one which Rufus Spald
ing has done in setting aside a
certain sum of money, the inte
rest of which will be spent in the
education of worthy and ambitious
young women, ine act or .Mr.
Spalding is one which 1 he Gar
den Island has advocated, to
the elfect that a certain sum of
money be donated by our philan
thropists, the interest upon which
would do the identical thing which
Mr. Spalding's arrangements will
do.
Mr. Spalding's gift indicates
thoughlfulness and consideration
for his fellowinen which is cha
racteristic of the man, and a hick
of selfishness which is so rarely
encountered among the class of
men most able to duplicate his
highly commendable act. Long
may he live to enjoy the blessings
of the beneficiaries of his noble
gift.

A Progressive is a fellow who
progresses out of the other fellow's
party into yours. A standpatter
is your own fellow who stays with
you.
And now Teddy says he be
lieves in the presidential recall.
Just let him wait a minute and see
the people recall Taft and laud
Wilson.
Another funny thing about the
American people is that they will
shut your front door when the
thermometer is 90 in the shade
and leave it open when it is 30.
A Discussion arose the other
day as to whether a man can eat a
quail every day for 30 days. It is
not a question of days with Ye
Editor. It is a question of quails.
Abraham Lincoln has lost
another cousin. This time it was
Capt. David C. Hanks, of Illinois,
87 years old. This mortality among
Lincoln's cousins i s something
dreadful.
The average life of a five dollar
bill is said to be two years. Not
being very intimate with Bill's
life, habits and location, Ye Editor
is not prepared either to deny or
verify this statement.
An exchange says that a sneak
thief entered the room where a
young lady was asleep and stole
$25.00 from her stocking which
she was wearing at the time. This
was a literal interpretation of pull
ing the leg.
IT is said that in the last half
century an average of twelve years
has been added to the period of
human life. And in the same
period the cost o f keeping the
breath going has more than kept
up with the increased length of
life.
There is one thing about the
single tax amendment that hasn't
been fully brought out and when
it is, will make the people think a
few before voting for it, and that
is, it removes the limit of taxation ,
which was placed upon it by con
stitutional or legislative enact
ment, u n d e r the single tax
scheme, the tax power is unlimited
An exchange says that Taft
sailed from Wood's Hole, Oct. 13.
He has probably arrived at another
hole by this time.
When the parcel post system is
inaugurated January 1, a new
series of postage stamps designed
especially for the new service, will
b e placed o n sale. Postmaster
General Hitchcock has perfected
arrangements for the engraving
and manufacture of a series of
twelve stamps of a novel size and
design.
These stamps will be somewhat
larger than tne ordinary potage
stamps and will be so distinctive
in color and design as to prevent
possible confusion with the stamps
used for other classes o f mail.
There will be three series of de
signs in the issue.
The first series will illustrate
modern methods of transporting
mail, one stamp showing the mail
on a railway train, auotner an
ocean mail steamship, a third
stamps o f the automobile's now
used in the postal service, and, a
fourth the dispath of mail by aero
plane. In the second series there
will be shown at work in their
several environments the four great
classes of postal employes, namely
postoffice clerks, railway mail
clerks, city letter carries and rural
delivery carriers. The third series
will give four industrial scenes,
showing the principal sources 'of
the products that are to be trans
ported s o extensively by parcel
post.
Who was the greatest woman in
all history? Two hundred teachers
answered the question and with
enthusiasm a n d unanimity the
Judges awarded the prize to the
one who made this reply: "The
wife of the farmer of moderate
means who does her own cooking,
washing, ironing, sewing, brings
up a family of boys and girls to be
useful members of society, and
finds time for intellectual improvement."

HARTWIG HARDERS, the Mil-
waukee Brewmaster, has personal su
pervision of every bottle brewed. He is
drawing a salary that would make you
gasp because he knows his business.
He has given us a beer ideally brewed
under ideal conditions. It does not have
to be doped, because it is "brewed to suit
the climate."
-You get the benefit of this if you get
the beer.
