Fitting the House to the Carpet.
Among the many ideas which the
Japanese have copied from western
customs and remodeled TO suit them
selves is the covering of their floors
with a special kind of mating. The
standard size of a mat is 3 by q yards
The custom of using these mats Is so
general that when building the Jap
anese architect arranges the size oil the
rooms to fit the mats, and when rent.
ing a house the size of room is stated

try Wine of Cardui, she made wise
choice. Over a million women have
been relieved of female weakness by this

strong medicine but may be taken every ',,;1y
benefit. 1t does not force results, but
eorrects arrangements of the menstrual

system, gives tone to the bodily func,
tons, acts directly on the genital
organs, and is the finest tonic for wo-
men known to the science Of medicine.

FIGHT AGAINST GEN. WOOD.
MR.. TELLER BLOCkS ACTION on
HIS PROMOTION.
Ills Course Backet! by senator Hanna
Charges Against Wood VIII he Laid
Before the senate Military Committee
und an Investigation May Result.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE fight against
the confirmation of Brig Gen. Leonard
Wood, nominated to be Ma General, was
BEGIN in the Senate to-day, when that
nomination, with the 1,lOO others sent II.
yesterday were referred to the various
committees. Senator Teller of Colorado
served notice on Acting Chairman Proc
tor Of the Committee on Military Affairs,
to which the nomination was referred, that
Lo action was to lie taken on it until he had
hao an opportunity 10 investigate certain
charges that had been made against Wood.
This notice will cfectually block any
action on the nomination for the present,
and will also affect all the nominations for
officers Of the grades below Gen Wood,
who we're promoted as the result OF his
advancement.
Ii is understood that Senator Teiler's
course is backed by Senator Hunna, who
Is seeking the vindcation Of Majo Estes
G. Rathbone, Cuban Director Of Posts
durii q tie military occupation Of
the island. Rathbone alleged that
his conviction Of misappropriation
Of funds was due to Woods unjustifable
interference and instructions to the Judges
C the trial court, and, failing to secure
reconsideration of the judgment by the
War Department or the Feieral authorities,
he filed charges with the President and the
War Department against Woods admin
istration of the Office Of Governor General
OF Cuba court of inquiry decided that
colrt-martial was not necessary, and no
attention vas Therefore paid to Rathbone's
charges.
Senator Hanna then took up the fight on
behalf Of Rathbone, and Rathbone is now
on his way here to appear before the Mill
tary Affairs Committee in opposition to
Woods confirmation.
The documents containing the accounts
Of receipts and disbursements of the Cuban
Government under Gen. Wood will be
searched by Mr.. Rathbone and his friends
for evidence upon which to back up the
charges, and if found sufficient to justify
an investigation by the Military Affairs
Committee, Senator Hanna will insist that
such an investigation be made.

Low no STUMP IOR ROOSEVELT.
His Extra Expenses as Mayor Estimated
at $1,000

Mayor Low expects to devote some time
when his term Is up to the care of his large
estate After month devoted to his per-
sonnl business he will 90 abroad for four
months. On his return he will rest at
North East Harbor and will then take the
stump for Roosevelt in tho Presidential
aign-assuming that Roosevelt is
the candidate. This announcement was
made yesterday by close friend to whom
the Mayor confded his programme.
When Mr.. Low became Mayor he sold out
his investments in corporations which were
likely to have business transactions with the
city. He has not only not made money
during his term Of Office, but he has spent
many thousands of dollars beyond the SIS ,OOo
salary he received He provided out OF
his own pocket for entertainments and din
ners for Prince Henry and other distin-
guished guests, and 1t cost him good deal
to rent second summer home in Rye in
order to be near the city. Altogether
it has been reckoned up that it cost Mr.
Low at least 500 900 to be Mayor of New
York for two years.
There is no probability that he will be-
come pres sident of Columbia University
again. When he resigned two year ago
he said that he would not take the place
again.

hotel people said that Hunt did not live
