hearty endorsement"
No suffering woman can afford to
ignore such letter as Mrs Mcdonald
writes. Her plans and advice have
proved valuable in building up one of
the greatest women's organizations in
the United States and she takes time to
give advice which she knows will help
you.
Do not delay in securing this medi-
cine. There is nothing to gain and
everything to lose by delay. The choice
is before you. Will or will you not
secure relief now by taking Wine of
Cardui? All druggists sell 81 90 bottles
of Wine of Cardui as well as Csc pack

hear her lecture everywhere she goes.
The great work she has done for the
Maccabees is appreciated by every
member of the order. She was so alb
sorbed in her work that she neglected
to give her health proper care-failed
to take warning that the symptoms Of
approaching kidney trouble gave her,
the sallow complexion and torpid liver.
But Wine of Cardui cured her the same
as it has cured thousands of others and
Mrs. Mcdonald has written this letter in
order that other suffering women may
secure from Wine of Cardui the same
relief she got from it.

WASHINGTON LETTER
fsnecial correspondence.l

Especial CorreSpOuoence.l
The complaint that in the restoration
of the White House the ease with
which the people from time imme-
mortal entered the mansion has been
seriously interfered with and in some
respects entirely denied has led to a
partial correction in the plans. One or
the changes which were most sorely felt
was the denial of access to the east
room, which has always been open to
the public.
The new arrangements provided an
entrance from the east, and only. the
presidents family and members of the
presidents household have recently
been privileged to enter the mansion
through the main north door.
Mrs Roosevelt has now interviewed
for the benefit of the public and in
sisted that there shall be a fight of
steps down the terrace at the east of
the mansion, so that people who come
to the main door need not walk so far
around to the other entrance.
The change will be made as soon as
| possible.
Check to Rural Free Delivery.
| A deficit of $4,000 has been discov-
cred in the appropriation for rural free
| delivery. Postmaster General Payne
has ordered that no more rural routes
| be esta blished during the remainder of
the present fiscal year, and that re-
| trenchment be practiced in the hope
that before July l the deficit will be
recovered. 1t has been common since
| the beginning of the service to end the
! fiscal year with deficit in the rural
| free delivery, and congress has an
nually been called upon to make good
| the shortage.
The growth of the rural service has
been phenomenal In 1900 the apprO-
| priation for the service was $45O,OOO.
! and / .2T6 routes were established. The
appropriation for the present fiscal
year was 5000, 400, and 1902 routes
are in operation. The appropriation
for next year is $12.621.T0O, and it is
estimated that by July, 1905, there will
be 81, O92 routes.

VIII Preserve ManiIa's Walls.

The proposed destruction of the walls
about the city of Manila has brought
out protest from Il number of patri-
otto societies in this country, and after
considering the matter Secretary Root
has given instructions to Governor
Taft not to disturb the walls. The re-
wall at one place where commerce
would be benefited was contemplated,
but even to this Secretary Root objects.
Manila is now the only walled city" in
the orient, and it is Secretary Roots
intention to have it preserved. 1t is
quite likely that the moat outside the
wall will be filed up as a sanitary
measure.

Prosperity and Passports.

The passport traffic at the depart
ment of state is said to eclipse any
thing ever known before and by the
argument of parallelism is supposed to
indicate the enormous prosperity of the
American people. "Our countrymen,"
said an experienced officer of the de-
partment the other day. always show
when they feel comfortable and conf
dent by going abroad for n tour of
travel" 1t las been suggested that
they may go in a hurry for fear the
feeling won't last. but you could not
get any one in the government Just
now to admit such possibility"

YACHT RACING.
This Expensive sport Was Begun In
England In 1862.

Though vessels answering m the
character of yachts were in use by
royal pcrSouagcs from an early date
Queen Elizabeth, for instance, lad one
built AT Cowes, Isle of Wight, in ldSS-
the word yacht was lot used until
the year 1860, when the Dutch present

Gle, In Evclyns Diary, under oct. l.,
100, occurs the entry, Il sailed this
morning with his majesty in one of his
yachts, vessels not known among us
till the Dutch East India company pre-
scented that curious piece 10 the king
being very excellent sailing vessels"
Yacht racing commenced in 1862,
when Charles H., who had some yachts
bult for him by Sir phineas PETIT,
wagered $500 that a yacht of his would
beat Dutch one owned 10y his brother
the Duke of York, aftcrward James H.
But the growth Of yacht sailing was
slow, and It is not until 1920 that an
authentic record of a yacht club Is
found in which year the Cork lIarbor
Water club, now known as the Royal
Cork Yacht club, was formed In 1872
a similar club. the Yacht club, was
formed at Cowcs by some fifty yachts
men. This club in lS2p attracted the
