EYES
Do They Trouble You?
SOME DIFFICULTY
IN SEEJXG.
Perhaps some smarting
sensation, constantly rubbing
them to clear away the cob
rebs, which won't clear. It
Is only one of the many forms
of eye trouble, which are cor
rected by the use of proper
glasses.
Our business is to
thoroughly test the eyes, and
prescribe for ' them such
glasses as will overcome the
trouble.
Surprising how a proper
glass will relieve the eyes,
how soon the pain and dis
comfort disappears.
We prescribe only when
necessary, and will cheerfully
tell you if no glasses are
needed.

MEDICAL SOCIETY
Interesting Meeting Last
Saturday.
Papers Peai by Dr. S. Eay and Wood of
the Butonic Plague Beri
fceri Next-
The Medical Association met at the
office of Dr. Meyer last Saturday even
ing. The subject for the evening's dis
cussion was the bubonic plague, a top
ic full of interest at present on account
of the plague which has been raging
in Hongkong.
Dr. C. B. Wood read the first paper.
He was admirably qualified to speak,
both on account of his thorough study
of the subject and his personal obser
vation of its ravages. He went into
the history of the disease and gave
statistics showing its enormous death
rate. He vividly described the great
plague of 1S94, during which time he
was in the Orient and had opportuni
ty for observing the "black death" in
all its forms.
Dr. Day followed with a discussion
of the treatment of the plague.. The
most successful and what seems to be
the coming method was discovered by
a German physician stationed in In
dia by the English Government. It
consists of inoculation of serum into
the infected person, and is very simi
lar to the vaccination in case of small
pox. Remarkable results have been
obtained in this treatment which has
produced beneficial results when the
patients have been in the worst stages
of the plague. The doctor gave an in
teresting description of the cases which
came under his notice only a few
months ago, when the first infected
steamer arrived.
A general discussion followed among
all present. The following were in at
tendance: Dr. C. 13. Cooper, president;
Dr. Garvin, eccretary; Drs. Day, Wood,
Bowman, Alvarez, Thompson, Ray
mond, Meyers, Rhodes, Cleveland,
Sloggett, Emerson, May, Wood, Hoff
man; Miss Kerr and Mr. Atherton,
medical students.
Tim subject for the next meeting will
be -Meri-beri."
v More Emigrants.
Both the Japan Times and Gazette
of August V? note the departure of 500
emigrants, raised by the Hiroshima
Emigration Company from Yokohama
on August 18 by the Canadian Paci
lie steamer Empress of China. In the
shipping -columns of both papers this
steamer as mentioned as sailing direct
for Yokohama,, hence it may be that
the vessel will call here on her return
trip and land the coolies.
The Galicians.
ThirO'-six Galician contract laborers
sentenced to imprisonment for non
performance of their contracts, were
released from Oahu prison on Saturday
at the request of H. HackfeJd & Co.,
agents of the Oahu plantation, on
which they vere formerly employed.
Having been released from their con
tracts the men will now have a chance
to shww whether they want tn work as
free laborers or no'..
Plantation Changes.
George Deacon, for many years en
gineer .at Pa n;.ik 07V has accepted tne
position of chief r-ngiheer at Waialua
plantation on Oahu. Mr. Deacon has
many friends .In Hilo and the country
about, who will regret his departure
and miss his genial companionship.
Robert More, who has for a long
time been engineer at Pepeekeo, has
resigned that position -to accept the one
at Paja ikon made vacant by the de
parture of Mr. Deacon.
The 'Anrerican-Maru."
The T. K. K. steamer America-mani
which arrived from San Francisco, via
Honolulu early" on. Sunday morning,
was quarantined by the health author
ities until 3 p. m. that day, owing to a
suspected case of small-pox being on
board. All the passengers and mails
were detained until the ship was per
mitted to proceed to her buoy. Japan
Gazette, August 19.
Manoa Valley Water Fights.
Five Chinamen were arrested yes
terday for malicious injury. The com
plaint was made by another Celestial
who had gone to great labor and more
or less expense to construct a dam
somewhere in Manoa valley. This
dam, he alleges, the five arrested men
did wilfully and maliciously destroy.
A prominent attorney has been em
ployed to defend the alleged dam
breakers in their hearing before Judge
Wilcox this morning.
