The origin of the Hawaiiaif^htlvee
j? unknown, says the Geological Survey,
but they are member# of widely
dispersed Polynesian *?*?ily. *nd it
has been found that the Hawaiian*
and the New Zealandere. separated
by one-ouarter of the circumference
of the globe, speak dialects of the
Kame language and have similar customs
and mythology. There ia a legend
that a chief, Hawaii-Lea, wh6
was a famous navigator of soma distant
lund, Kahikiku, first visited
these islands and after several trips
back and forth settled in Hawaii.
Whoever the first settlers were, it
has been estimated that the islands
were inhabited as early as 000 A. D.
There are better authenticated accounts
of an immigration in the 11th
snd 12th centuries, and from this
time the history of the islands gradually
emerges from the mythical stage
ana includes a fairly continuous record
of the chiefs and kings who
ruled up to the time of the shortrepublic
and the annexation of the
islands by- the United States in 1898.
Although there are legendary accounts
of visits to these islands by
Spanish ships during the period when
Spin's was the only European flag
on South Seas, the real discovery
of Hawaii is credited to the Englishman
Capt. Cook, who made his first
visit in 1778. He called the group the
Sandwich islands, in honor of his
friend and patron, the earl of Sandwich,
who1 was first lord of the admiralty.
During this voyage Capt. Coo$
touched Niihau and left some goats
and pigs of English breed, perhaps
, recognizing the island's stoc^-raiBing
possibilities, which have been developed
since to the point where Niihau
is today one great cattle and Bheep
ranch, comparable in appearance to a
well kept European estate. From the
time of Capt. Cook's visit these islands,
at the crossroads of the Pacific,
became the' rendezvous and refitting
Btation for the explorers, fur traders,
and whalers who visited the northwest
coast of America, and* the native
Hawaiian*, known far and wide
as skillful Bailors, were found in the
crews of many ships, 24 of them being
in the ilbfated Tonquin, whose
crew was massacred by Indian* on
the coast of Oregon in 1811. Continuous
contact of America with these
i Islands may be dated from the arrival
in 1820 of a small group of missionaries
from New England. This
contact was Steadily 'made closer by
the arrival of increasing numbers of
Americans? missionaries, traders,
and planters, whose descendants have
been largely instrumental in the
commercial and agricultural development
of the Islands.
Lewis Wood, native of Columbia,
and well known Washington correspondent,

Vick Chemical Co. I
Wins Case
* Philadelphia^ April"i?. _ judge
Thompson, presiding in United States
District Court for the Eastern District
of Pennsylvania, has just hand?d
down a decision in favor of Vick
Chemical Company, in its case ?J
gainst Frederick E. Strohmeicr, in I
which emphasis is placed by the court
upon protection of the buying public
against fraudulent use of a trade
name, VWks Vapo-Rub.
| "The defendant will be enjoined,"
Judge Thompson's decision reads, "against
use of the plaintiff's trade
name, as he has been using it, to de-1
cefve and perpetrate a fraud upop
the public and, by pirating its trade
mark, to injure and datnage the reputation
the plaintiff has built up. A
decree may be entered for an injunction
accordingly and for damages sustained
by the plaintiff ahd profits de^
rived by the defendant from his acts
of infringement and unfair competition."
j
This case grew out of the action of
otrohmeier in the marketing of a
cough drop which he claimed, on the
package, was "Medicated with Vicks
Vap-Rup." As to this alleged mediJ
cation, Judge Thompson says in his I
decision: "I find from the* medical
testimony that, 'fes manufactured,
there is no real medication by means
of Vick's Vapo-Rub in the defendant's
Product, That being the case, that
statement of medication is false and
untrue. I am not satisfied?that the
defendant has introduced any testimony
sufficient' to ,sustain his claim
that Vick's Vapo-Rub is used at all in
his cough drops," J
Vicks Vapo-Rub is the sole product J
of Vick Chemical Company and has
been marketed for a number of years.
It was introduced in evidence that
over $7,000,000 has been spent in
advertising to establish this product
in the confidence of the public, and
the extent of such confidence was J
disclosed in the evidence that over J
260,000,000 jars have been- sold; since
1910, throughout the United States
and in over 60 countries abroad. It
<was charged that the defendant,
Strohmeier, by pirating the Vick
trade name, was tring to establish
his unknown product by associating I
it in the public mind with Vick's Vapo-Rub,
thus not only accomplishing
infringement but perpetrating a I
fraud upon the public. The decision
of the court upholds 'this charge and J
enjoins .Strohmeier from further use
of the Vick trade name in connection J
with his product. ,

Unintentional Suicide
Many people are slowly poisoning
themselves just as surely as if they
drank iodine every morning for
breakfast. They are daily absorbing
the toxins, or poisons, created by
accumulated waste matter in their
constipated digestive systems. Sooner
or later disease will conquer their
weakened bodies.
If you have dizzy spells, headaches,
coated tongue, bad breath, insomnia,
no appetite, bilious attacks or pains
in the back and limbs', you are probably
Buffering from self poisoning
caused by constipation. The surest
and pleasantest relief for this condition
Is Herbine, the vegetable cathartic
which acts in the natural. Gat
