A SIGNIFICANT LETTER.
New Tork City, Feb. 15, 1900.
My Dear Carlton: I know it will
please you to learn that my homeward
iournev from San Francisco was more
than pleasant. One striking feature
that added very much to my comfort
was the'dining car service on the Kio
Grande Western and the Denver & Kio
Grande. This is the finest service of
this description I have ever seen any'
where, either in this country or abroad;
the food and cuoking was all that could
be desired, and at very moderate prices,
If yon happen to know the Rio Grande
Western people, 1 wish yoa would say
to them that it will afford me the
greatest pleasure at all times to bear
testimony anywhere to the above facte.
Very trulv yours,
(Signed) J. ADDISON BAKER, 2nd.

An Excellent Combination.
The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
Svkup or Flos, manufactured by the
Califokhia Fio Syrup Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa
tive principles of plants known to be
medicinally laxative and presenting
thera in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. It
is the one perfect strengthening laxa
tive, cleansing1 the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every objectionable quality and sub
stance, and its acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from senna and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the California Fie Syrup
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
effects and to avoid imitations, please
remember the full name of the Company
printed on the front of every package.

LIVE-STOCK CENSUS. I
Enumeration of Fare-Bred
Animate Will He a tH mt
Twelfth Censat.
Farm
An enumeration of the pure-blood or
pure-bred farm auimala in the United
State will be a part of the twelfth oen
us. The main schedule for agriculture
provides for returning the number,
June 1. 1900, of all pure-blooded ani
mals recorded or eligible to record, on
the farm."
While the treasury department, in
administering the tariff laws relative to
pure-bred animals, does not accept the
verbal statements of owner or agent,
but requires certified evidence in writ
ing of the pedigree olaimed, the census
enumerator will be compelled to rely
pretty generally, if not wholly, upon
verbal replies as to whether stock is
pure-bred.
As several months must elapse oeiore
the census of live stock will be taken
Director Merriam requests that all who
are not certain whether their unregis
tered animals are grade, or pure-bred
and "eligible to record," take steps
definitely to settle the mooted point,
and thus be prepared without hesitation
to give the enumerator accurate infor
mation relative to this interesting
inquiry.
Sheep mav be recorded by flocks;
but other animals are recorded by indi
virtual. The herd books show that
about 750,000 cattle have been regi
tered in the United States and it is
estimated that about 350.000 are th
ine. If breeders will make accurate
returns of their pure-bred animals to
the census enumerators next June,
correct basis will be secured for show
ing future expansion in high grade live
stock. Otherwise the efforts of the
census officers will be of small value

ewes, to be delivered after shearing

figures on his yearlings bringing him

of other workers allied to the iron and
steel industry would seem to point
labor conditions retatniug most ot the
favorable features which have recently
made them features of favorable re
mark.
Sugar is higher, mainly owing to the
rowing strength of raw material.
Wheat and corn, among the bread
stuffs, have been weaker, reflecting an
other one ot those short swings in
prices which have been a feature of the
former market, but also expected heavy
shipments from Argentina and good es

crop advices are disappointing, com
plaint of winter killing more than off'

Wool remains one of the soft spots in
the market, and though a little mure
business has been done this week than
last, concessions are easier to obtain
and prices are quotably lower.
Wheat, including Hour, shipments

WHAT "K ALSO HIKES" ARK,
Kalsomlnes are cheap and temporary
preparations, manufactured from whiting,
chalks, clays, etc. They are stuck 011
the walls with decaying animal glue. Ala
hastine is not a kalsonilue. It is a rock
bae cement, which sets, and It hardens
with ai;e. It can be re-coated and re
decorated without having to wanh and
scrape off Its old coats. Alabastlne Is
utilized to a great extent in hospitals, at
it prevents the accumulation of dirt and
the congregating of diseas germs, being
disinfectant in it nature,

whilst I Its helplessly by the tide of it,
waiting for the blessing?" Spurgeon.
