Construction of a Hojern Stcimer. The Board of Verities is a branch of Lloyd's Liverpool, Eng. The construction of the new steel steamer Greyhound is being done under supervision of this board. This fact carries with it a guaranty of perfection and a “Star-Crescent” certificate. All material, steel, timber, machinery, boilers, etc., are thoroughly tested by mechanical experts employed by the board: the expense of the department of precaution or assurance amounts to several hundred dollars which is born by the White Star line.

The feathering type of wheels make it possible for the Greyhound to I glide through the water without the least jar or tremor. The steam steering gear places the steamer under absolute and immediate control of the pilot at all times. The “trim tands” do away with the antiquated sand barrels, used on less modern steamers to the continued annoyauceof patrons desiring partial seclusions on the lower deck. This newest device is eontroled by the engineer, and avoids listing, which might occur under the old plan were passengers to suddenly move from one side of the steamer, as is often the case on the Det o’t route, because of almost constant changing of interesting scenery. The electric light plant on the Greyhound is equal to that employed by a city of 10.000. This department is also equipped with all the newest and latest appliances. The furnishings throughout, are of the latest and most costly design, equaling the palatial home of our time most of the tapestry is of recent importation. The ride from Toledo to Detroit is of four hours duration; full justice in way of inspection cannot be made short of that time. The first steamer on the lakes to use wireless telegraphy always in sight of and in communication with shore.

She says Electric Bitters are just splendid for female troubles; that they are a grand tonic and invigorator for weak, run down women. No other medicine can take its place in our family.” Try them.
