of my readers who have undergone the
horrible experience of trying to secure
the rudder at, say, midnight, IN a
North Atlantic storm, after the rudder
chains had parted, and when the quad
rant chains were lashing about like
whip serpents, threatening to knock
out the brains, or break the limbs OF
all within their reach, as the rudder
banged about from side to side, can

excellence of which surprised me, know
ing as I do only too well from sad ex-
perience what the usual type of ''ocean
tramp accommodation means.
To begin with, each of the after
guard on the Scottish Monarch, with
the exception of the apprentices, has
that great blessing-a room to himself,
comfortably and tastefully furnished.
The apprentices are berthed two in one
room, but such elegant rooms for APP
prentices were surely never seen be-
fore; and, mark you! apprentices who
are not called upon to pay any premium,
but who, instead, are in receipt of
wages from the very first day of their
service
These rooms are placed on the lower
bridge deck, and have an awning deck
carried right over the accommodation,
terminating in 10-inch curtain plate
at the ships side over the bridge bull
wark Each room is an exact replica
of the other, 8,><S'X7' g., with the ex
ceptions of the chief officer s and chief
engineer s, which are rather larger, and
contain ingeniously contrived writing
desks and drawers, in addition to the
other furniture, as well as portable
electric lights, and plugs for driving
electric fans. Each room is securely
insulated from the heat of the engine

that all bids should have been filed by

humoF. Impure blood causes a vast
proportion Of the ills to which flesh is
heir. AS q great physician has said,
EVERY part of the body is fed every
moment from the same blood, and the
blood cannot be impure without caus-
ing disease" We see people every day
who carry about the signs OF impure
blood. Some nav s%crofula, others are
afflicted with pimples and eruptions
which disfigure their faces. Rheuma-
tism, catarrh, dyspepsia and man
other diseases depend upon the un-
healthy condition of the blood, and
are cured by making the blood pure
with Americas Greatest Blood Medi-
cine, Hoods Sarsaparilla. This great
remedy not only expels impurities
from the vital fluid, but it makes it
rich and n~ourishing, and thus feeds
and strengthens b nervous system
and all the rgans of the body. It is
the great Safeguard OF health, and
should be found in every family. Its
timely use saves a vast amount of suf-
iering.
