says the Savannah News. He has a

it. An exhibition of the scheme in

It 1* mid that the native servants in
Hawaii used to call their mistresses by
their first name*. An English woman
of strong will determined on her arrival
in Honolulu that her servants should
never call ber Mary and instructed
them carefully in the presence of her
husband. One day, when she had visit

drawing room door and politely in*
Ired:
“What vegetables for dinner today,

He had heard her called that and
seemed proud, of remembering not to say
