dren on Occasion.
Roosevelt stories are now in order.
Here is true one:
The new president believes heartily
in the old Biblical admonition that to
spare the rod is to spoil the child says
an Albany dispatch to>the New York
World. The Roosevelt children have all
been panked-eXcept during their ba-
byhood-and very soundly too.
Once when Ausley Wilcox of Buffalo,
in whose house Mr.. Roosevelt was
sworn in as president, was a guest at
the state executive mansion he sat talk
ing to the governor shortly after the
Roosevelt children had been put to bed.
As the governor and his guest talked
and smoked, peal after peal of laughter
was heard coming from the nursery,
romping.
1t annoyed the governor. He went
out into the hall and called loudly to
the nurse to have the noise stopped.
He had hardly started the conversation
again before the sounds Of cutting up
We're as loud as before.
Excuse me-" Mr.. Roosevelt said
grimly to his guest. He assembled the
stairs to the nursery almost at bound
and in few moments there was heard
the laying on Of hands," Whack,
whack. whack Mr.. Wilcox heard. and
Immediately the snickering stopped and
snlveling took its place. Then the gov
ernor returned. a trifle winded and red
der in the face, but with his determined
expression unrelaxed.

shook hands with the woman, but his
eyes We're riveted upon the light haired
child, who seemed to have caught his
eye. He stopped over in kindly man

miss. asked her name, but her answer
was inaudible.
".All this time man with his hand
tied up in a handkerchief, resembling
bandage that appeared to be the work
of surgeon, followed. When he came
within one person of the president, one
of the secret service men looked him
over and also glanced at the mans
