How to Have . Nice Lawn.

In the spring months, where there are
frequent showers, and the grass is in rapid
growth, the lawn mower may be used as
often as once week with decided benefit.
But in our climate. with its extremes and
uncertainties. such fixed rules as "mow
once a week" will lead to trouble if fol-
lowed. With the first drouth the grass on
the lawn shows diminished growth, and
IL often really at q standstill. A. such
times nothing worse can be done to the
grass than to cut it. All that there is above
ground is needed to sustain the root and
incidentally to shade the surface In the
treatment of the lawn, as in all other gar
dening operations. some thought should
be given to the present condition of the
plants and the objects to be gained by any
operation.
The kind of grass varies the time or fire.
quency Of cutting. A fine, thick bottom
growth Of June grass or blue grass may
be kept pretty closely shaven. But many
front yards and lawns have timothy or
herds grass sod, and if this is allowed TO
grow eight to twelve inches high and
then cut 1t will leave a woody stubble, and
if dry weather prevails it will be long
time before new growth from the roots

SIX POINTS.
ALL WORTH REMEMBERING.
vCUT THEM OUT.,1

People take nauseating doses for every
pain and ache, which put their stomachs out
of order, and then physician is called to
attend to them. This is all needless, for if
the Hop Plaster is use.i, it is absorbed into
the system IN just the way to cure without
bringing on other troubles.
A medicine to be popular must be both
agreeable and eificacious; the Hop Plaster Is
a rare union of vegetable agents combined
with safety. reliability and effectiveness. The
indiscriminate use of medicines taken inter
nally is far more productive of injury than of
benefit.
The most powerfully medicated and effec-
tive plaster ever evented is the Hop Plaster;
it embodies all the medicinal and sedative
properties of the Hop in combination with
the most highly approved gums and balsams
known to modern pharmacy.
The Hop Plaster is made porous. thus
allowing the free evaporation of moisture,
stimulating the innumerable pores of the body
to a healthy action and giving tone and vigor
to the whole system. 1t is the discovery of
Yankee chemist.
The medicinal virtues of the Hop have been
utilized for centuries they are all concentra-
ted in the Hop Plaster, and do more real good
in relieving pain than any root, drug or herb
liquid medicine in the whole domain of nature
Hop Pasters are sold by all druggists in
the United States and Canada. (25 cents each
or 5 for ST. and are guaranteed to be the best

PRESIDENT BARRIOS.
Incidents of lfIs Visit 10 New Or
Ieans-TwO OF His Attes danJs.

Several somewhat curious incidents are
related of President BaniOs' visit to this
city, but as they come only as reports, they
are given simply for what they may be
worth.
one is that DIR. Arroyo, the polished and
scholarly man who was in the Presidents
party, and who made a fine speech at the
banquet at Spanish Fort, is a priest, IN
usually able and astute, and so dangerous a
rival to the President that this high fuuc-
tiOnarv wss afraid the willy churchmsn
w0uld raise a revolution or make other
trouble while the Chief Mag rate was out
of the country; and, therefore, the President
brought him along to keep him out OF mis-
chief. Is is stated that General Barrios was
extremely afraid OF assassination, even
while in New Orleans, and kept In his bed
trustv fellows, who looked more like Mexi-
can vsoueros or cOw-drivers than the BODY
guard Of a nations chief ruler. One Of
these functionaries constantly wore a red
woolen comforter around his neck, and en-
loved the reputation among the street mob
that saw him Of being the Presidents private

was detailed to look after the suspicious
characters who might have designs on him
here.
Colonel Sliverton, who was one Of the
trusted staff OF General Barrios, accompany
ing him in his late visit to this city, was a
somewhat uncouth, but really good, fellow.
He is not over thirty-ive years of sge, but
is Colonel OF Artillery IN the Guatemslau
army. His history is somewhat romantic.
He IS q Swede, speaks English fairly, and
was at one time an enlisted man IN the
United States navy. Having served 8 term
10 the navy he got a discharge st San Fran
cisco, and went with party to Guatemsls
to cut mahogany. The mahogany project
