>*■ of the Worlas News B RIG A D IER GENERAL FRED ERICK FUNSTON, command ing the Hawaiian department, has a plan tor Improving the appearance and conduct of enlisted men when they are in Honolulu. AU enlisted men, whether stationed in Ha waii or passing through on transports, are not permitted to wear civilian dress. Violations of General Funstou's order will result in tbef offender being placed in a certain clingy and so de barred from leaving thjr post where he is stationed. The oigler In part Is as follows: \ First - In v l $ K o f the frequent Instances of disorderly conduct on the part of en listed men In the city of Honolulu, to gether with carelessness In saluting offi cers and in the nearing of the uniform, there will be put into effect a system of classification of enlisted men according to conduct. Second-Enlisted men will be divided Into three c I hsscs : (a) The first class will Include only those men who by their conduct shall show themselves to be worthy of special priv ileges. No man who has been guilty of misconduct In the city of Honolulu since June 2, 11)13, the date of the establishment of the provost guard In this city, shall he considered eligible fur this class Men be longing to this class will he furnished with a card, the possession of which will entitle them to leave the post ut will when absence from duty Is not Involved and Will carry with It permission to remain absent from retreat and Chech roll call, provided they are actually absent from the reservation The commission of any offense will involve demotion to at least the next lower class (b) The second class will Include enlist ed mtn whose conduct has been sufficient ly good to entitle them to the privilege of leaving the reservation on pass The com mission of any offense against good order and military discipline will Involve demo tion to the third class (c) The third class will Include all en listed men who during the past two monthB have been guilty of disorderly conduct and such others sb may be so classified by troop, battery, company and detachment commanders These men will not be permitted to leave the reservation except.

Fourth —Failure to properly salute off! cerg and carelessness In the wearing of the uniform will Involve demotion to the next lower class Fifth —Hrunkenness or disorderly eon- duct of any hind will Involve demotion to the third clasB, with the forfeiture uf good conduct card. * * FLOWERS MAY TELL SECRET The secret of the determination of sex may possibly lie found la plant life, according to Kir Oliver Lodge. Referring to the fact that some plants produce both male and female flowers, Sir Oliver says this must he the result of some profound change In the sap at the junction of the stems where differently sexed flowers branch ed away from each other. He con ttimes: \I do not know what this is, and the microscope tells me nothing Perhaps If physiologists could And out wlmt happens In that little plant joint they might get a clew to the reason why some human beings are born boys and others girls.” * X DUCHESS HEADS NEW PARTY The Women's Municipal party is the title of a new organization founded by the Duchess of Marlborough, formerly Consuelo Vanderbilt of New York. It will make a strong attempt to interest women in municipal affairs and pro mote their election to local government bodies on the ground that women are not treated properly In the matter of municipal representation. The organization consists of women of all political parties. It is confined to London and has nothing to do with the suffragette movement In the sphere of national politics. In a description of ‘The wants of the .Women's Municipal party, which is is being adorned with attractive pat terns in rugs, druggets aud portieres, the handiwork of two estimable old women of Elkin, N. C.-Miss Caroline McHargue, seventy-four years old, and her elder sister, Mrs. Martha Walker, seventy-six. Several months ago the women conceived the idea of paying their respects to Mrs. Wilson by means of a present representing the work of their deft hands. They are expert dyers and weavers, and they use the old time process of coloring w ith harks uud herbs and weave on an old fash ioned hand loom, preparing the thread with card and spinning wheel. The machines employed by these t\v women are none of your newfangled machine made devices. Their shuttles and spools are made by hand; both warp uud weft are spun in their home and no new festive colored yam can equal either in color or durability the herb dyed, hard twisted yum made liy these two artisans ou ,ty*'lr spiuuiug wheels X X SALVATION ARMY HEAD COMING (ienernl Brumwell Booth, who sue needed his father as head of the organ lzatiou, will arrive In New York on Nov. 28. lie will spend eight days In this city, holding mass meetings aud presiding over sessions of the Salvation m IIONET IN CIRCULATION, BUT AMONG HOME MERCHANTS Lika Bread Caat Upon ths Wafer*, |t WiU Coma Back to You a Hundred Fold, .Who in this community is paying constant tribute to some gigantic cor poration store In a city that cares noth ing for this town save to get ita mon ey? It is a tine thing to put money in circulation, far finer than to let it rust In tomato cans or retired socks, 1 But the citizen, man or woman, who has the interests of the home commu nity at heart prefers to put the money In circulation around Mine. Like the bread cast upou the waters, It will come back to you a hundredfold it you east it upou local waters. But If you cast your bread upon the occau of the mail order trade it will get swept Into the gulf stream and never come back. Bargains are all right. All of us love to get a bargain when we trade. But if all of us should send our money to Chicago or Boston or New York or San Francisco for bargains when the home merchants are offering bargains also how long will the home merchant last and liow long will the home town con tinue to develop? The thing to do is to get Into the “forward march'' ranks of the home guards and get out of the crawfish bri gade that puts a town ou the backward crawl.

X X YOSEMITE FALLS ACTIVE I’robably throughout this autumn the falls of Yosemite will boom with un wonted volume. Swelled by the un precedented rain and snow during the last half of July and first of August, the streams of the Yosemite National park, which before were sedately sink Ing to sleep In their beds of bowlders have awakened to new Hit. The Yosein- Ite fall has become transformed from a filmy veil-like volume to a foaming, thundering tumult of tumbling water. All the gurgling laughter of spring has come to the canyons of the merry Mer ced. Dusty roads have Cohn beaten by the driving drops to a solid pavement, pleasing the feet of pedestrians. The' majority of the visitors to the valley have found much pleasure in the rare spectacle of the swelling wa terfalls and cascades. Late comers to the Sierra are being favored this year by an Abundance of water now held in the catchment areas of the mountain meadows, Jakes and spongeiike forests surrounding the Y'osemite.

Fortunately our fruit trees will stand a vast amount of abuse and neglect aud still recover aud be profitable. In trimming neglected trees half o f the top should be removed. Nature, left to herself, will grow twice as much wood as is needed for good fruit. The ne cessity of having plenty of beurlug surface is so important that nature overdoes it. The best time for this trimming is in October or November, for that Is the time of your comparative leisure, and the leuves huvlug dropped you can see perfectly the shape of your tree. In the first place, cut sparingly upon the south side of the tree. Encourage the toi> to grow upon that side, for us a rule our trees iudine to lean to the northeast, and you need the top upon the southwest to shade the body of the tree from the warm spring sun. Then whenever two brunches cross remove one of them, aud where a crotch has been formed, which in time would split down, to the ruiu of your tree, remove one of the stems. This Is a method of life Insurance for your tree. Having done this much, step back and study the tree to see if it Is symmetrical. You will note perhaps that some branches are too long. If so dip the ends. Again, you will see that In places the top Is still too thick. There are two brunches where there should he hut one Remove the weak er of the two Make the top loose and open so that the sun can reach every part The principle to consider is this You cannot have good fruit unless the sun can reach them to give them color and flavor The tools to use In this work may vary, but a small, sharp sgw Is very convenient, and a enncl. heavy jack knife In good condition w ill till the bill Some recommend a chisel and mallet and a hatchet, while a rough imple ment for work requiring care Is some times used Rut whatever the tools you may use make dean cuts, close to the trunk, and paint every wound which Is a half inch or more iu diame ter.-low a Homestead tst Nh; iNr: s s .r* This apple tree has been allowed to grow haphazard fashion aud Is now a total loss as a fruit producer.

The other day we visited thp stable of a noted Holstein breeder who lifts lately Installed a gasoline vacuum cleaner for taking the dust, loose hair, nnd other objectionable matter from the bodies of his cows, says a Hoard’s Dairyman writer A two inch pipe runs along over the stanchions with a projecting nipple between each pair of cows The attendant takes a few feet of hose with a suction brush at the end nnd goes over cows, rapidly taking In flics and other cow annoyances. The cows seem to enjoy the process greatly Senior Berean Sunday School Lesson Golden Text - A double minded man, unstable In all his ways (Jas. 1. 8). Chapter xxlt, 2-0.-A questionable In vitation. The people of Moal) were filled with fear hy the presence of these strange people, who seemed to be Irresistible. Read the war song of the Israelites In Num. xxl, 27-30, and you will get nn idea of the impression they must have made on the nations with their swing of mighty conquest. The Moabites dwelt on a high tableland 4,300 feet above the level of the Dead sea to the east of which their country was locat ed. No encounter is recorded between them and the Israelites, \Moab was distressed,\ This is a strong expres sion for the mingled feelings of anx iety nnd uncertainty experienced by the king and his people. \Elders of Midiau.” This land was located in the Slnaitic peninsula on the east of the gulf of Akabah, but some of tbeir rep resentatives were here associated with the Moabites, who dwelt farther north, In a united attempt to prevent tbe progress of the Israelites. \Lick up all that are round about us.” It seem ed as though everything in sight was to go into the hands of Israel, but Ba- lak was determined to do all In his power to prevent this. \Balaam the son of Beor.” This was the name of famous soothsayer whose home was in ‘ T ether,\ on tbe banks of tbe river Euphrates. This would be about 400 miles from Moab. * * * “They abide over against me.” Tbe Israelitlsh en campment was on the border of Moab. Curse me this [>eople.\ Balaam had tbe reputation of being a successful sorcerer, whose evil spells had bind ing power. So Balak engaged him to cast a weird spell on tbe Israelites that would tmfit theffi to invade his land. “Whom thou ettrsest is cursed.\ It was an ancient belief that a bless ing or curse pronounced by men firing tu close communication with tbetr gods had efficacy. .

Under divine inspiration and filled with pr*- .phetic ecstasy he gave utterance in rapturous strains to his thoughts They met with the decided disapproval of Balak, but Balaam reminded him of the contract. 'Tbilr.k's anger was kindled.\ lie might well be incensed against this man whom he had engaged to serve him, but who was all the time adver tising the virtues of the euerny. \Blessed them these three tfmes.\ He had no further use for such a man, who was iu reality working for the enemy, and that with fearless open ness. “Cannot go beyond tbe com mandment of the Lord.” Balaam was satisfied to have a clean heart with poverty rather than an impure heart with great riches. Ail the honors and emoluments of Balak were as nothing in comparison with unbroken fellow ship with God. Compare Act- viii, 20. Chapter xxiv, 14-19.—A triumphant jirophecy. But before Balaam left the enraged presence of the disappointed Balak he delivered himself of even a more forci ble utterance. “Advertise thee.\ “ coun sel thee\—that is, announce before hand. “I b tbe latter days\—in tbe last period of tbe future. “Parable.” This j o r d was used of any suggestive utterance long or short, that Implied more than it actually said. It might be a pithy sentenoe like “Wisdom is justified by her works\ (Matt xi, 19). < or a satiric ode, like Num. xxi. 27-30, or a eulogy, like tbE poem. Its original form is reproduced to tbe revision. “Whose eyes are open.” Tbe prophet was known as a seer who beheld to vision that concerning which be spoke and to whom God made known bis will to “a trance.” This early stage of prophecy was superseded by direct in sight into the win of God. “Bat not new.” The prophet beholds Israel of the future and la the distance o f the years. “A star out o f Jacob.\ This was * favorite oriental figtre tor • Mag, end these teas tom been re garded as * prophecy . , *J. *00*05* m m m u li e tosfc ife « f rayafiy. “Barite ttocrigk the cerncta* f t * to the v r t i i e !

LABOR SAVER ON THE FARM, A good post puller can be made of a strong tongue from some discarded farm machine.

LAWSON A GIRI, sat on the porch of a farmhouse knitting Up the mad came a man. He stopped before (lie girl, who sat medi tating with her eyes on her work. I’res ently she looked up Seeing him. a glad smile was about to break out on her lips, but she repressed It. “ Well, I declare!” she exclaimed. “ Where did you come from? I’d as soon have expected to see your ghost as you.” “ I should have been very much dis appointed,\ replied the man, going up on to the porch and taking a seat, “ to see your ghost. I prefer to see you in the flesh.” “ Let me see. It must be seven or eight years since you left. You went away the day after-after I saw you last, didn’t you?\ “ Yes. I left you standing on this very porch. It was twilight, with a moon in the first quarter. I went down the road there determined that you should never see me again.” “And what brings you back now?” “ I came to get married.\ He was looking her in the eye. Though inwardly she winced at the in formation. she succeeded in appearing Indifferent to it. “ Who is the happy woman?” she asked. “ I've answered a question. It's my turn to ask one. Are you married?” “No.” He sat looking at her inquiringly, and she continued: “There’s never been any one here who wanted me.” “Nor any one you wanted.\ “ That’s right.” “Same here. I've remained single since I left yon because there was no one I could get that I wished to mar ry.” “But now you ean get the one you want?” “No. but I must have a companion. I feel myself getting old. I'm thirty- two.” “And I ’m thirty.\ “So I concluded to come back here among the people 1 was brought up with, marry the first girl I could get and take her back to tbe most God for saken country a woman ever Bred to.” “You w o n t have any trooMe getttog * girt to go with you, hut It’s not math X an outlook fa r her.” ‘■How Aboot tm T *Stotli he eetetsatly memrstog tor (M t o f i e e t o l to toe her doso wffi he ret? hart e * yee .1 *T«riiwUit*n)'ian«fent toteodtog to tribe ye* to axel * T e x , t t I toetof Itoh,* ■ t ' v » tween them, broken at last by the man, \Seems to me Unit if you had got to the state 1 have, tired of living alone and didn't care whom you married, and 1 could give up my interest out there you'd fill the bill.\ \If 1 married you / wouldn't let you give up your interest out there, wher ever that is- not on my account.” \But you said you'd do that if you loved the man.\ ‘‘Yes, fhat's what I said ” \But if you didn't love the man\— \I wouldn't marry him nt all.” Another silence The man sat tap ping his boot with a stick he had cut beside the road. \I'm sorry about that.\ he said pres ently. \1 didn't know but that If you felt the same as I do it wouldn't be necessary for me to go any farther foi a companion,\ \But 1 don't feel as you do. In yotn ease the romance lias passed away, and you merely want some one to keep you from being lonely.

In another eight or ten years you'll come back again and talk just as stupidly as you did when I saw you last aud as you are talking now.” \Myra what do you mean?\ Tbe only reply he received was S passionate burst of weeping. “ Myra, sweetheart, do tell me.\ \Yon went away and have been gont eight years.
