FRIDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 21, 1919 ENDED IDOLATRY IN HAWAII Brave Act of Kaplolani, Daughter eof Chief, Resuited in Establishing Christianity There. No longér do ‘the fire lakes in the teat cryter of Kilauea carry terror to ” ' the soul of Hawall as a message from the dreaded fire god, Pele. It is a cen- tury since Kaplolani, daughter of Kea- wimanhili, high chief of the district of Hilo, and wife of Nathe, high chief of Kona, and the national orator, defied the fire goddess, and turned her peo- ple from the idolatry. Prior to that time the superstition ran that when- ever Pele stamped her foot on the bot- tom of the volcano Mauna Loa, her “House of Everlasting Fire,” there were earthquakes. If she became an- gered with hapless lovers, or any who . failed to worship her, she was credited with poring out torrents of lava and liquid flame. All who went near the crater were expected to-do so with hu- mility and sacrifice, and high priests of the goddess kept the people in awe. People gave their dead to the volcano, hoping they would became ghost gods to aid them. Then Kapiolani, in 1820, after three years teaching at the feet of misslonaries, accepted Christianity, and did what is recorded as one of the greatest acts of moral courage ever performed. She visited the volcano agaiost the advice of her husband and friends, and hurled stones into the pit, and ate of the enchanted berries near it. " She defled the goddess. Before go- {ng up she left a nfessage, saying that it she didn't return, her people should continue to worship Pele, but if she aid they should accept the new teach- ings. Her ceturn safely-banished the hold of idolatry in Hawali. FIRST POST SERVICE CRUDE ‘That Between New York and Boston, However, Was the Beginning ! of Great System.

Some thirty-three years before that 8 post office had been opened in Bos- ton at the house of Richard Fairbanks, “for letters which are brought from beyond the seas, or are to be sent thither.” In 1657 the Virginia assembly pro- vided for the “rapid transmission” of officlal communications from planta- { tion to plantation on penalty of one hogshead of tobacco for each default. Four years after the establishment of the New York-Boston monthly mail, the colonial court of Massachusetts| founded an official postofiice in Boston, with John Heyward as postmaster. The first parliamentary act for the establishment of a postal system in the English-American colonies was passed in 1692, and a royal patent was granted Thomas Neale, who was authorized to transport “letters at such rates” as the planters should agree to give. Neale began operations in Vir- ginla, and the other colonies soon Joined In the movement, although the system was'very imperfect. DR. J. W. DIEDRICH DR. J. T.

An eminent naturalist says concern- ing the breathing apparatus of the whale: “The windpipe does not com- municate with the mouth; a hole is, as it were, bored right through the back of the head. Engineers would do well to copy the action of the valve of the whale’s blow-hole; a more per- fect piece of structure it is impossible to imagine. Day and night, asleep or awake, the whale works its hreathing apparatus in such a manner that not a drop of water ever gets down into the lungs. Again, the whale must of necessity stay a much longer period under water than seals; this alone might possibly drown it, inasmuch as the lungs cannot have access to fresh air. We find that this difficulty has been anticipated and obviated by a pe- culiar reservoir in the venous system, which reservoir is situated at the back of the lungs.” MILLER’S BATTERY SHOP Corner Minnesota Avenue and Fourth Street Telephone 72 W.
