Iowa Farmers Have IDEAS
The farmer of Iowa have ideas about

of their opinion, and have asked him for
some explanations; to which he has re-
piled shiftingly, without ingenuousness
and entirely without CONTINGENCIES.
In effect he has replied that he had he

The Lie Guards are two regiments Of
calvary forming part OF the British
household troops. They are gallant
soldiers, and every loyal British heart is
proud OF them. Not only the King S
household, but yours, ours, every body
should have its life guards. The need OF
them is especially great when the great.
est foes OF life, diseases. find allies in the
very elements, as colds, influenza, ca.
tarrh, the grip and pneumonia do in the
stormy month of March. The best way
that we know Of to guard against these
diseases is TO strengthen the system with
Hoods SarsapaTilla-the greatest OF ali
life guards. 1t removes the conditions in
which these diseases make their most
successful attack, gives vigor and tone
to all vital organs and functions, and
imparts genial warmth 10 the blood.
Remember the weaker the system the
greater the exposure to disease. Hood
Sarsaparilla makes the system strong.

New STEAMER SIBERIA. The new
steamship Siberia sailed from New York
yesterday on her first voyage. She will
20 to San Francisco witha general cargo,
and later will ply between that port and
China and the Philippines. The official
prospectus describing the new vessel de-
clares that particular attention has been
given in designing this ship to incorpor-
ate therein everything that might be
conducive to the comfort of passengers. "
Four opium smoking-rooms or "dens"
constitute the most marked feature OF the
Accommodations for the Chinese passen-
gers. The Siberia is possibly the first
ship that ever went to sea from New York
fitted up with opium ''dens" for the use
of passengers. The four ''dens" are
way aft, between the port and starboard
a,ieyways, Just forward of the steam
steering gear. They are about ten or
twelve feet square and fitted up with a
triple pier of narrow hunks on each Of
their four sides. In explanation of this
an officer of the vessel said: "You can
keen the swine from smoking, and if you
let 'em smoke in their berths they will
stink up the ship till there's no living in
it. If you forbid smokingin their sleep
ing quarters and set a quartermaster TO
watch to see that the orderis obeyed, they
will sneak down where the cargo is stow
ed or some other place where they are
likely to set the ship afire." Mr.. Chas.
w. Sullivan, of Alexandria, is machi-
mist on the Siberia.
