Why do the people with oqe voice say that D. B. Hill keeps the

BECAUSE

ery, china and glassware, and found it as represented; lit our lamps and had good light;
Used our silverware and sounded its praise; bought our clocks and never got left; bought
our window-shades when they didn’t need them ; bought curtain poles for themselves and
poor kin because they were so cheap; used our knives and forks and piaised the butcher;
bought our pictures and got credit for lots of good taste; hung our wall paper and didn’t
know the old house.

Abundant Food Prepared In a Novel
Manner for One Thousand Guests.
The following extrnct from a private
letter wiitten from Honolulu by Dr.
George V. Andrews outlines a novel
feast:
We have been having a festival week,
the semi centennial of Dahu college. A
number of alnmni came home from the
states, among others General S. U. Arm
strong, of Hampton, Va., and he gave
ns some grand talks on his work in the
great school there. Rev. William Gu-
lick and wife also are here from their
twenty years’ work in Spain. The great
feast was a novel sight, An awning of
sails covered in a space alxmt 60 by 100
feet, under which were laid tables, and
the viands, cooked a la Hawaii, were
laid on them. As provision was made
for a thousand people an account of the
cooking may be of interest.
There were provided forty-five half
grown pigs, two beeves, 126 chickens,
several hundred fish, bnshels of sweet
potatoes, etc. The larger pigs were cut
into fragments and tied in bundles of
banana and drachma leaves of a pound
or two weight each. The ■ beef was
served in the same way, also the chick-
ens. The smaller pigs were wrapped
whole in the leaves. Preparations for
the cooking were made the day before.
Four holes were dug, one 10 by 4 feet,
one 6 by 4 feet and the others about
three feet wide and two feet deep. A
quantity of wood was placed in the
grotto and upon this were placed large
stones a foot deep.
One fire was lighted early in the morn
ing of the day before and the second
abont 1 o'clock. At 3 o’clock the wood
was burned ont and the bottom was a
mass of red hot stones. Upon these were
spread a layer of crushed fresh banana
stems sis inches thick, and upon these
were piled the small bundles of meat two
or three feet high and the size of the
hole. Over them was placed a mass of
fresh ‘
over
thick and the imu was finished and left
lb a tenth until the best' morning ) J lO
At S in the evening the big one was
similarly filled with the remainder of the
meat and the trussed pigs, and also cov
ered. Ono can imagine wlm|adili|hl

It was Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical

Headache, Scrofula, Dyspepsia, Kidney
Disease, Liver Complaint and General
Debility. An inactive Liver means poi
soned blood; Kidney disorder means poi

soned blood. The great antidote for
impure blood is Dr. Pierce’s Golden
Medical Discovery. Acting directly upon
the affected organs, restores them to
their normal condition. The “Discov
ery” is guaranteed to benefit or cure in
ail cases of disease for which it is recom
mended, or money paid for it will be
promptly refunded.

X a time. Pol, the native food—a paste
made from the Calocosen esculcntum
and soured—was pnt in small, water
tight baskets along the center of each
table so. that four persons coaid reach
each one with the fingers (knives and
forks ate eschewed at a lnan). Each
table was also gay with crimson fleshed
watermelons cut in fancy shapes, various
relishes of raw sea urchins, meat, sea
weed, raw shrimps and pounded kukui
nuts and salt Conveniently at hand
were fern leaves, and the viands upon
leaves, gourds and wooden bowls and
platters.
The guests recline at their ease on the
left side uml eat with the right hand.
Each one has a bowl of fair water to
cleanse the fingers. The method of eat
ing is not disgusting. The natives use
their fingers dexterously and daintily
and not piggishly, though they are
rather gormandizing in their native
state.—Detroit Free Press.
Maternal 'Leva or the Wliale.
No other member of the animal king
dom displays more maternal affection
than the whale, especially if its calf is
harpooned. The hurpooner never throws
his harpoon into the little one with the
intention of killing it, for if this is done
the mother will instantly forsake it. If
alive end straggling, however, the dam
can be easily-enticed toward the boat to
meet ita fate. Knowing this, the whale
fishermen always strike a calf if pcasi-
ble, and thns often make captures that
could not be effected trndlr other cir-
cumstances.
As soon as the dam becomes aware of
the snaring of her young she rushes to
ward it, encourage* it to swim away,
and even assists by taking itnnderher
fin. She seems to lose all regard for her
own safety, and boldly attacks the boat
containing the whalemen, or circles
abont it totally regardless of the har
poons that are hurled at her and enter
her flesh.—Detroit Frpe Prate.
Heiekiah’a Surprise.
“Wat, Hiram, if tills don’t beat alii
The old way for doctors was ‘kill er.
cure,’ but hero I’ve found a piece in this
here newspaper where a doctor offers
‘cash er cure.’ It's fer catarrh I I wish
wo had it—I’d like to try him! Jest
listen, Hiram! 'The proprietors of Dr.
Sage’s Catarrh Remedy offer a reward of
$500 for any. case of catarrh which they
cannot cure.’ That beats lotteries hoi
low! The medicine costs30cents—your
catarrh is cured, er you get $300!
Where's my bat? I’m going right over
tp neighbor Brown’s to show him I
never wanted to get within ten. foot of
him before, but If it is the curie of his
catarrh, I guess I can stand it ouc’t.”
