ICE IS Safe Sure Silent Saving On and after February 1 the 2one rate system for air mail -will -be abolished and a flat rate of 10 cents for each half ounce or fraction thereof will be charged, G. T. Sullivan, superintendent of mails at the Honolulu post office announced yesterday, following receipt of an official notice' to that effect from Washington.

This means, according to Sullivan, that the handling of air. mail will be greatly simplified at the post offices throughout the eouutry aud generally a reduction of rates will be effected. Under the present system a rate of eight cents per ounce is charged for each zone, which covers a distance of 1500 miles. TUere are three zones between San Francisco and New York so that the ordinary letter sent by air mail from coast to coast requires 24 cents worth of postage. Under the new system it will require only 20 cents as the average letter weighs only an ounce.

The flat rate of 10 cents per each half ounce or fraction will apply to all matter first or second-class sent via air mail, Sullivan stated. Sullivan also called attention to other matters of interest. He exhibited a letter addressed to the "American Consul, Hawaiian Islands" and "a parcels post package addressed to a member of the crew of a steamer calling here in eare of a local steamship agencv, "Honolulu, P.

such lger.ts now functioning on Oohu, to talk matters over and suggest improvement of present methods which, it is claimed, are obsolete and need much remedying. it was revealed ye-terday, a young Hawaiian, 14. married Filipino girl, 33. The boy, it appears, was ou parole from the industrial school at Waialee. The marriage has beeu broken up, the boy returned to the industrial school, and the child wife sent back to her parents, it was announced yesterday.

The license for th) marriage of these infants, board of health authorities said 3-crstcrday, Mas issued by Agent J. A. Combs and the cere mony performed by Rev. Robert Auuna, minister of the iloomana Hawaii church, who is a police officer aud a former member of tho house of representatives. The marriage license aud the marriage certificate gave the agc of the boy at 18 and that of the girl also at IS.

Both allege that the boy and girl eaid that they were each IS. For some years past an effort has been made to centralize the issuance of marriage licenses directly under government auspices, one agent for each police district of the county. These efforts have proved futile, as scores of agents and their friends are said to have established a lobby against such aetion by the legislature. When 1). L.

Conkling territorial treasurer he rc voted all commissions of marriage license agents and appointed only one such agent in each district. After Conkling left the territorial treasurer's office his successors gradually reverted to the old sy.stem aud issued commissions by the dozens. nothcr effort to centralize the Issuance of marriage licenses will be made at the legislature which meets next month. An attejjipt will be made to enact a law requiring mairiage licenses to be issued by one health officer in each district.

V. Pierce took. In his younger days he practiced medicine over a large district. It was then the new oil fields near Titusville, Pa. Finally he determined to put up some of his prescriptions In ready-to-use form in order to reach a larger number of families.

He thus moved to Buffalo, N. and established tho World's Dispensary, w-hfre he put up Dr. Pierce's Ciolden -Jdedieal Discovery for the Vilood as well as the Favorite Prescription for women, cart-fully preparing them from roots, barks, and herbs and placed them with druggists everywhere. During many years Dr. Pierce's Discovery, for the blood, has been sold in larger quantities by druggists all over the United States than any other medicine.

It is a tonic in its effects on the stomach and dig-estive apparatus; an alterative in its action on the blood, liver and skin. It increases the appetite, stimulates the digestion, enriches the blood, and makes both men and women feel as they did when they were young and care free. Ask your nearest druggist for Doctor Pierce's Discovery, in tablet or liquid form, or send 10c for trial of tablets tn Dr. Pierce's Clinic, in Buffalo. X.
