"Notwithstanding reports to the con

Special Committees Will Endeav
or to Secure Pledges From
Members of the Legislature.
The movement has become aggressive
among the members of the Medical So
ciety of the City Hospital Alumni of St.
Louis, and the St, Louis Medical Society,
through Its affiliated bodies of the State
for the enactment of necessary legis
lation for the establishment and en
dowment of a State Institution for
the cars and treatment of persons suffer
ing with pulmonary tuberculosis.
The matter is being taken up by com
mittees from both organizations, the
Committee on Public Health and Legisla
tion of the St, Louis State Society or
which Doctor George Homan is chairman
and Doctor R. JL Funkhouscr and Frank
L. Henderson members.
The interests of the Alumni Society are
in the hands of a special committee, of
which Doctor Homan is also chairman and
Doctors Ludwig Bremer, L. H. Behrcns.
Francis Reder and R. B. H. Gradwohl arc
members.
Doctors William Porter, F. J. Luti and
VV". G. Moore have also been active in the
work. . ...
The two organizations arc wonting unaer
resolutions unanimously adopted by each..
In speaking of tho plans. Doctor Homan
said yesterday: "It may be interesting to
recall the work done by th legislative
and social committees of the two societies
a year ago, when wo went before tho
Legislature to ask for the necessary ap
propriation. "The committees laid the matter first
before the Committee on Eleemosynary
Institutions, and Mr. January, one of tho
members, prepared a bill which was final
ly sent before the Committee on Appro
priations. "IVe asked for $330,000. There were sev
eral sessions of the committee, but owing
to tha absence of one of the members,
who was supposed to be favorable to the
Idea, we lost by a vote of 4 to 3.
"Wo believe that the State of Missouri
should put Itself on equal fooUng with
other States In the humane movement.
"The medical societies of the State were
never In closer alliance than now. Our
organization Is strong and we propose that
by the time the next Legislature Is chosen
that every Senator and Representative
shall have had this matter properly
brought before him, that he .may be con
versant with It In all Its phases.
"All the branches throughout the Stato
will seek to have the newly-elected mem
bers meet before the local society and tho
importance of this project fully explained.
"It Is an unselfish work so far as the
physician Is concerned, but It Is of the
utmost importance to thousands of suf
ferers from consumption. Massachusetts
has spent more than half a million dollars
In carrying on tho work. New York has
appropriated 51M000 to start an Institu
tion, and Missouri should take the matter
in hand, and I believe will do so when tho.

WINTER WHEAT DAMAGED
IN SOUTHERN MISSOURI.
A Ij fence of Snow During? Freezes Al
io rred Tops to He Frozen, but
Hoots Are All night.
REPUBLIC SPDCIAU
Columbia, Mo., March 1. Tho monthly
climate and crop report was Issued here
to-day by the Missouri station as follows:
Februarr averaged decidedly colder than usual
in the central and eastern portions of the
State, but In the western sections the de
ficiency In temperature was les marked. The
lowest temperatures occurred on the 1st, 4th
and 11th. and at most stations in the northern
sections ranged from lero to 10 decrees below.
Very heavy rains occurred In localities In the
Loutheast section on the 6th and 7th, hut over
mucn tne greater portion or ine state tne pre
cipitation up to th 26th was very light, many
of the western and southern counties receiving
less than half an Inch.
in portions of the northeast section winter
wheat was fairly well protected by snow and
sleet, but elsewhere the ground was bare dur
ing much the greater part of the month and
In many counties the crop has been consid
erably damaged. Except In the extreme south
ern counties, however, there was but little al
ternate thawing and freezing, and while the
tops of the plants have been killed to a con
siderable extent, the roots are not thought
to be seriously Injured.
In many of the southern counties where
wheat was sown late and, owing to drought,
made little or no growth during the fall, the
crop Is In very poor condition, but In a con
Kldrable number of the northern and western
counties It seems to have held Its own and Its
condition Is very near the average.
Reports regarding-peach buds Indicate that
In most of the extreme southern counties
Mifliirh lire buds remain for a full cron If not
Injured later, but elsewhere very nearly all of
the budded peaches are reported killed, and a
majority i me correponuenis eiate mat nniy
a verr small portion of the buds on seedling
trees have escaped.
Cherry, plum and pear buds are also reported
killed to a considerable extent in some locali
ties. In a few of the extreme southwestern counties
some plowlns has been done for oats and corn.
IXLINOI9 WHEAT UNTO O MI SING,
'Development Almost Suspended tr
the Rlsorona "Winter.
REPUBLIC SPIX;IAI
Sprlngfleld. Jll.. March 1. The Illinois
climate and crop bulletin was Issued to
day by the Illinois section of the Weather
Bureau:
The temperature for the month was consid
erably below normal. The average dally de
ficiency was about 6 decrees. Low maxima
rather than low minima was the characteristic.
The month opened cold, with minima below
zero In tbe central and northern sections. Ex
cept In the extreme southern portion, freezing
temperatures and lower were recorded mostly
during- the entire month.
Precipitation was deficient. It fell mostly In
the form of snow or sleet. The ground was
well covered, little thawing ensuing, owing to
low temperatures, until the latter "part of the
month when a general thaw occurred, and the
ground waii practically bare In tbe central and
southern districts at the end of tbe month.
The treneral condition of wheat Is unpromls
Inc. The plant entered winter under unfavor
able conditions, and development has been al
most entirely suspended on account of rigor
ous weather. Some fields are reported to be
badly damaged, others winter-killed. Where the
Jilant has teen covered with snow only con
ecture Is offered with regard to present con
dition. "While maxv favorable reports have been
received., a considerable majority report ad
vereely. Much damp, soft corn remains In the hand
of farmers, and opinion Is freely expressed that
considerable damage will ensue' when the
weather moderates. Cara are scarce for mov
ing the grain, and In some Instances It Is
spoiling In elevators. A matter of concern In
many localities Is vital seed for planting. Much
of the grain was Immature before garnering,
and experiment has shown that reliable seed
will not be plentiful.
Meadows and pastures are well nreserved In
the northern district, and In portions of the
central district, but the- outlook Is not jprom
lslng In the southern tier of counties. In the
latter locality young clover and timothy have
been Injured by alternate freezing and thaw
ing, and some old meadows hate been killed
Apple buds ore believed to be unscathed, but
all reports indicate serious damage to peaches.
Stock has wintered well, but teed Is becom
ing scarce in some localities.

couple of months before the baby came l am sure wax. maae me
pains less and the baby stronger. I find that it is excellent to
restore the strength and do not think any woman should be
without it. 1 am therefore pleased to give my testimonial.
This frank letter from Mrs. Jensen should convince any nervous woman that Wine
of Cardui is the medicine for her to take. That Wine of Cardui drives out weakness and
makes it possible for her to become a mother without the unnecessary pain and suffering so
many mothers endure, is a glad message to American wives. But the use of Wine of Cardui
a couple of months before confinement removes all danger, banishes all trace of leucorrhoea
and relieves the distressing weakness and intense nervous irritation. Wine " of Cardui also
strengthens the female organs and makes childbirth very much easier. A perfectly healthy
mother means a perfectly healthychild. You can only really appreciate what Mrs. Jensen
says about Wine of Cardui restoring the strength by trying Wine of Cardui yourself.
Wine of Cardui cures women of all ages, of all the ailments which afflict the sex.
