The Life Guards are two regiments OF

hold troops. They are gallant soldiers,
and every loyal British heart is proud OF
them. Not only the kings household, but
yours, ours, every body's, should have its
life guards. The need Of them is especially
great when the greatest foes of life, dis
eases, find allies in the very elements as
do colds, influenza, catarrh, the grip and
pneumonia in the stormy month OF
March. The best way that we know OF to
guard against these diseases is to strength
en- the system with Hoods Sarsaparilla-
the greatest OF all life guards. 1t removes
the conditions in which these diseases
make their most successful attack, gives
vigor and tone to all the vital organs and
functions, and imparts genial warmth to
the blood. Remember the weaker the sys-
tenn, the greater the exposure to disease.
Hoods Sarsaparilla makes the system
strong.

heated from the court house plant, the
steam being carried through the tunnel

The Axial Rotation of Venus.

For over two centuries it was gener- ally accepted that like the earth, the planet Venus rotated on its axis in a little less than twenty-four hours, but since Schiaparelli after long and care full observation of the planet suggest. ed that the actual rotation period was between six and nine months astron- omers have devoted much attention to this matter. In the Observatory Mir Denning sums up the available evi. dence on the point and can only con clude that this particular problem still def1es solution. Life on Venus would be very different from life on the earth should the planets aval rotation be. as Schiaparelli asserted, identical with the period of it's revolution round the sun, as in that case the same hemi- sphere would always be turned to the sun and enjoy perpetual day, while the opposite hemisphere would be doomed to eternal night.

A Swiss company has been formed to construct a tram service without rails between Basic and Huningue, a town on the Swiss German frontier. says a special cable dispatch from Geneva to tLe Philadelphia North American. The motive force will be electricity supplied by aerial wires. An ingenious device allows the cars to be guided eleven feet six inches on each side of the aerial wires without cutting off the current, so that two cars travelling in opposite directions may pass at full speed. The cost of the scheme is stated to be 60 per cent less than if an ordinary tramway line with rails were constructed.
