The late webfoot weather on hand dar ing the past two wwks. and consequent bad roadr, brings us face to face with the question of: "What is to be done with the "Ward Hili Grade?" south ot the crossing of E'ghf-Mile, to make it pas sible in winter weather, says the Du ur Dispatch, This grade i9 a vt?ry necessary one all Stage lines rnnni:ig south from The Dalles being obliged to pass over it daily and the majority of people living in the southern portion of Wmc" county, mus1 travel it when so unfortunate as to have to vt9it the coitnty seat in winter wen ther, There is not a better road in the county during the summer months; the road bed packing down to resemble a cement walk, hut even light rains make it soft, while heavy storms make it almost oot tomless.

However, the county court sbouid ex amine this piece of road (about a quarter of a mile long; during the winter some time, and see if some good permanent work cannot be done upon it next spring. Talk Fur I'aouuia. Washington, Dec. 12. The certainty that an isthmian canal bill is going to pass at this session of congress causes a number of men to give the project the most sferiouj consideration, and some are giving particular attention to the Panama project, even in the face of the report of the commission in favor of the Nicaragua route. The fact that the Nicaragua route is 168 miles Long as against forty-six unlet- ac,ross Panama and that it will take thirty-six Lours for vessels to go through instead of twelve in passing at Panama, is giving many senators and some representatives serious moments of reflection. Tbey recognize the complications that would follow their dealing with the French and the Colombian governments, but they are considering whether it would not be better to do so and have a shorter canal, ever, if the cost is considerably more. The old speech oi Senator Davis made against the Nicaragua canal ten years ago is being revived. In it he asserted thai the seismic conditions of Nicaragua and Costa It ca were such as to make it Ban Start Girls Right! Many beautiful girls become Invalids for life, because at the crucial period of puberty they pay no attention to the laws of health. Mothers should protect their daughters' health by giv ing them necessary Information and proper treatment. When the menses come on a girl unawares In her Inexperience she Is either frightened into convulsions, or scared Into try. Ing to check the flow. Many girls have checked the flow and It has never started again. And as a result they have grown pale-faced, with "crow-tracks" on their cheeks, and dark half moons under their eyes. A dose of WINEoCARDUI taken every morning after a gW Is twelve years old will bring the menses on properly and keep them regular. It will help her to develop Into attractive womanhood and equip her for the duties of wife and motherhood. All druggists tell $1.00 bottles of Wine of Cardui. The Hollywood. Anbury Park, N. J., February 8. 1900. I read vmir advertisement in regard to Wine ot Cardui in tho Baltimore American, and it so favorably impressed me that on my visit to Baltimore during the holidays 1 purchased a bottle of it for my adopted daughter, who was suffering with female troubles. She had been under the doctor's care for some time, and when her periods would come on her suffering was some thing terrible. I induced her to try it aad the first dose brought on her meases. She took it regularly according to the directions, and was greatly relieved. To use her own-words, "It saved my life." J. WESLEY CROSS.

The question of harbors on both sides is aleo being raited and comparisons favorable to the harbors on the Panama route are being made. Of coarse, this discussion is more or less tentative, and it may not amount to anything in the end, as the sentiment of congress seems largely in favor of a Nicaragnan canal, tj ime believe tuat the Panama talk is simply in the interest of defeating any etna!, and tliac opposition is brought out in the report made by Senator Morgan.
