IEllSIHE Truth.

Walter Wellman. the Washington
correspondent of the ultra-Republican
Chicago Record Herald, thus describes
the effect q Gen. Grosvenor's speech:
This speech has elected widespread
comment in Washington. Ii has been
the talk OF the day. 1t served to empha-
size fact which is gradually drawing
upon the consciousness of the Republi-
can leaders, that they have blundered
sadly in not revising at least some Of
the high schedules during the present
session of congress. At least the lead
ers are beginning tu appreciate that the
people of the Middle West are in
earnest in their desire for reforms of
the altitudiDous rates on which big In
dustrial combinations thrive and wax
fat by means of unTeasOnably high
prices extorted from the consumers.
Already there is talk among the Re
publican leaders of trying to do some
thing in the way of tariff revision be
fore the next presidential campaign.
They have been rather slow IN realiZ
ing the situation, in reaching an under
standing of the danger which menaees
them, and some of them do not see il
even now, But those who have had
their eyes opened say it would be sui
cidal to go into the campaign of 1904
with the DINGHY law as a platform.
The trouble is that it is almost impos-
sible to carry through tariff revision
in the short session of congress, such
as next winters session Will be. But
there is talk of trying it,
president Roosevelt has told a mum
Der of callers recently that he very
earnestly believed that the tariff should
be revised before the next presidential
campaign, and limited that he might
call special session of congress for
that purpose.
The Republicans are in genuine
scare about the next house.

A woMAN's UNIVERSITY

IN THE SOUTH.
 The following from The New York Post is of interest to the friends of higher edu- -atio1 of women:
 Miss Lillian wyckoff Johnson of At lanta, Ga, graduate of Cornell Univer- sity. and an ex-President of its Southern Club. is trying to promote plans for a woman's university in the South. The idea owes it's inception to the Southern Club of Cornell the members of which deplored the fact that they were forced to go so far from home for their higher education. The State universities of the South are in many cases open to women, but the educational system is unpopular with the young men, and 1t is a we'll known fact that the position Of women In those institutions is anything but an agreeable one. A young man from the South Carolina University described the attitude of the students towards the wo- men. At first we resented their presence very much, but finally we settled the mat ter by just ignoring them altogether. We don't consider them students at all. Some of them are bright, am told, but that mekes no difference. "A girl took first honors in one class last year, but the fellow that came after her Is always called the honor student Women would hardly be tempted to attend college un- der such depressing and degr ading con- djtions as these. A number of prominent Southern women are interested in the plan of the woman's university

 THERE are but few families that

In ny home and among women relatives and friends we have come to the conclu- sion that doctors are an expensive luxury. Their prescriptions may sometimes relieve, but for real per manent cure l know of nothing which I can so surely depend upon as Wine of Cardui. It must be a skillfully prepared medicine for it seems to answer the purpose in numerous complaints peculiar to women. learned of its value per- sonally three years ago when two bottles cured me of periodical pains, and I was so pleased with the results that l recommended it to a number of friends. have known of severe cases of inflammation and alteration which were cured in a few

For the general toning up of the system it has no superior; and if tired out, sick women would use one or two bottles of Wine of Cardui instead of dragging wearily through weeks of suffering it would not only be sure to cure them but they would avoid the serious results we daily see around us caused by neglecting na- ture when she cries out for relief and succor.
 The nominal cost of this remedy compared to doctors and prescrip- tions Is another great item well worthy to be considered, especially as in my opinion the results with your remedy are far surer and more lasting. Being firmly convinced of it's superior medicinal value l heart ily recommend it. ...
