iards lurking in the hills of Vermont
during Dewey's youth, and as a conse-
quence he returned from his various
expeditions empty-handed. According
TO the stories of the neighbors young
Dewey made no pretense of being an
angel. He stole harvest apples, COB
bled watermelons, and was up to the
average dodge with other boys The
only time he ever got into trouble came
about from his longing to see blue wa
ter. He deposited a round of indigo
in neighbours fish pond and brought
about the scenic effects. but it was
tough on the fish.
Dewey differed from Washington in
one particular. While Washington
could not tell lie our hero could. This
picture represents him standing before
his father and telling a lie, He was
then in his 14th year. One day his
father sent him on an errand, but in
stead of proceeding on his way he went
off to the river to paddle about in an
old boat. After being wrecked several
times he returned home wet to the
skin. and when his father asked him
about the errand he promptly replied:
Eyes, father, | saw Mr.. Thompson,
and he says if you want to use a plow
you'd better go and buy one"

George, l don't want you to get the
swell-head over it, but let me say that
if it hadn't been for your help this feet
would have been licked sky-high."
He fought again at Mobile and dis
tinguished himself for valor, and at the
close of the war his record was one to
be proud of. AS temperance lecturer
he might have done fairly well, but as
a naval fighter he was climbing rap
idly to the top and had the whole
world before him.
Our next picture represents the hero
quietly sitting on chair and smoking
his cigar as MS fleet steamed forward
toward Manila Years had passed and
there was war again. From his youth
up he had always wanted to lick the
Spaniards, and now his time had come.
It was night OF excitement to all but
Dewey. lie knew that he should find
the Spanish feet and wallop seven bells
out of it, but he was as cool and calm

from the common run. There was no
telling whether he would make a great
pirate, d great poet or just a common
plug of hired man on a farm. Wo-
men who happened in when he had a
touch of the collie remember that he
howled and kicked and took on the
same as any other baby, and he was
dosed with the same remedies. There
was nothing startling nor original in
the way he went through chicken-poX,
mumps and measles, and in first tod

dents in the Life of Admiral
Dewey.

Fellow-Americans: The question
has been asked me this evening: Are
you a patriot?" | answer it by saying
that since l started out with these ster-
eoptican views, the object of which is
mostly to arouse the patriotism of the
country, | have been bombarded with
eggs, showered with vegetables, PUNK
ed with brickbats and hustled out of
back windows. 1 have covered over
600 miles of highway on foot, lived
about half the time on one meal a day,
and appear before you here tonight
with blisters on my heels and a decid-
ed wobble to my knees. My cash cap
ital is "a cents, and my next date is 20
miles away, but if it was necessary to
pour out my blood to save this coun-
try from her foes | would pour her out
to the last drop and buy an extra bar
rel to boot. That's the kind of patriot
am, and We will now proceed to bust

that he loved the water He was
licked about three times a week for fall
ing in and getting half-drowned, but it
made no difference with his enthusiasm.
A tin-peddler happened along one day
just after young Dewey had been fshed
up from the bottom of the pond, and,
after looking the kid over, he said TO
the father:
Mr. Dewey, that kid can't help it.
Nature horned him for a great tenn
perance lecturer, and he loves water
like duck. Let him go ahead, and
the day will come when he will deliver
temperance lectures at % cents a head

his landlady timidly knocked at his
door half an hour after dinner.
i called-I called" she began as
she exposed paper she had been hid
ing up her sleeve. but he reached for
it and said:
My dear woman, do not let any feel
ing of embarrassment prevent you
from speaking your mind. You called
to announce that I owed you for sew
eral weeks room rent and board. You
have the exact number down on this
paper. You have made no mistake
about it. There is not, l assure you,
the slightest cause for embarrassment
on either side. Observe how calm and

i need the money, Major"
Very likely, my dear woman-very
likeiy-but even if you didn't the bill
is correct and must be paid. 1t shall
be paid. I am man of sentiment, but
/ never let sentiment interfere with

me about anything in particular this
EVENING""
Wheeling Sunday register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1882-1934, 1899-07-02


my dear woman, that theti has come
when l can reward you. Yesterday my
scheme-my latest enterprise was not
far enough advanced to take you in, or
| should have sent for you. This even
ing it is perfected. You are taken in.
You entered this room as a landlady
without encouraging financial pros
poets; you leave it as treasurer of one
of the most gigantic money making
monopolies in the known world, and
need not hesitate to order 100 tons of
coal at once. Do not faint away, mad
am-do not call for the police in your
excitement. You look at me in blank
amazement, but let me make things
! little clearer"
do l get my money!" she asked
"Ten thousand times over, my dear
woman-t-e-n thousand tines During
the last hour | have perfected the or
Betrayer Company, and while am the
president and general manager of the
same, | hereby tender you the office of
| treasurer. | shall take no refusal.
Your duties will be light, your salary
$4,000 year, and the stock which you
take at ground-foOr figures will be at
a premium of 200 per cent. in less than
three months. AS you step from your
humble abode to order the 100 tons of
coal l spoke of, kill several birds with
one stone by ordering diamonds, seal
skins, a victoria and other articles of
luxury at the same time Tush. Tush!
No thanks. You stood by Major Gro
foot when it would have embarrassed
him to pay a weeks board bill, and
now with millions in sight he stands
by YOU"
"But-Major- she began as he
paused for breath.
'Let me explain, my dear treas
urer," he blandly interrupted. you
have seen sticky fly-paper, of course?
1t comes in sheets. Flies light on it
and stick fast and die. Good thing, I'll
admit, but I've got better. Well put
up the stuff in cans, instead of spread
ing it on paper. That gives all buyers
a chance to use up all the old newspa
pers and magazines in the house. Stuff
can also be carried with you as you
travel, and shipped to all countries in
! the world. A silver-handled knife goes
! with each can to spread with. Can be
spread on any kind of paper, or used
on the window stills or door-steps.
Three or four leaves from the family
almanac guaranteed to capture 100 flies
to the leaf. One can properly distri-
buted on the kitchen floor will yield a
crop of 500 cockroaches within "a
hours. Makes no distinction between
insects, but captures them all. Own
ers of COWS have but to use the con-
tents of 10-cent can along the spine
and a thousand flies will cease to trou
BILE. No fear of the children"
"Major Crofoot, I must have my
money!"
NO fear of the children being
poisoned or the house blown up, and
any child five years old can follow the
instructions. Saves putting up screens
at doors and windows, warranted to
keep in any climate and there's seven
cents profit on every Decent can.
There you are, madam, and THERE
you are, and We'll sell $4,000 tons of
the Betrayer as fast as it can be put up.
If you haven't any old newspapers ly-
ing around, and don't want to tear any
leaves out of your Gospel Hymn Book
or the Pilgrims Progress, spread the
Betrayer on pieces of old sheets or
skirts Worn-out door mats and frag-
