Tariff Republicans in both the Will senate and home at Wash Ileuain. ington are a unit on the matter of letting the tariff stand, but favor the cutting of war taxes. The republicans recofcii'ze the necessity of reducing the revenue, but they do not intend to allow the reduc tion to extend to the customs duties. Every announcement thus far has been to the effect that any reduction, of the revenues must be on war taxes, and not on customs duties. Republicans do not fear any rebuke from the people because they refuse to revise the tariff. They believe that the people will be satisfied as long as good times continue, even if higher prices are paid for custom-made articles and for that reason they will not consent to a reduction.

Be fore I had taken half of the second bottle I began to feel relieved. I got six bottles and used them, and am happy tp say I owe my life to Dr. Pierce and his medicines'."
