DeWitt's Little Early Risers. w.

Small as it was it did me more
good than calomel, blue mass or
any other pill I ever took, and

pleasant. Little Early Risers are
certainly an ideal pill" Sold by

doua BAD BOY ABROAD.

London magazine recently said
some very unpleasant things about the
American child. If its seathing critf-
cism can be relied upon he is the en-
FAINT terrible of the hotels, the bane of
ali landlords and the pet aversion of
guests. The magazine contrasts the
children of rich Americans with those
of French and English travellers, to the
that English hotel proprieters may be
compelled, in order to keep their pa
irons. to adopt as rule of their estab-
lishment, No American children re-
ceived here"
With sorrow it must be confessed of
the American child that, like the little
girl who wore a curl in the middle OF
her forehead. when he's good, he is
very, very good, and that when he's
bad he is horrid. But it is respectfully
submitted to the British magazine that
it is not in a position to judge when
the American child is bad and when he
is merely mischievous, inasmuch as the
upbringing of the latter is very differ
ent from the upbringing of the English
boy or the French boy, just as the up
bringing of the American girl is differ
ent from that of the French or English
girl
But this is not to say that all Ameri-
can parents have nothing to learn from
the English or the French method of
bringing up children. The reverse, in
deed, is the truth. But it is unfair to
assert that the American child is bad
merely because his parents make no
effort to restrain a youthful exuberance
of spirit. He is always mischievous;
and when it happens that his parents
are very rich and have a fondness for
living in European hotels, and when
their theory of child culture is that
children should be seen and heard con-
stantly, this mischievousness naturally
has full play. But to declare that he
is a chartered iihertine," as did the
magazine in question, is to grossly libel
the American child.
AS matter. of fact he is neither a
Lord Fauntleroy nor a Peck's bad boy,
though frequently he is an interesting
combination of both. He may stir
things up a bit when he goes abroad.
but this is the fault of his parents, not
his fault. The majority of American
parents are bringing up their children
just as wisely, however, as English par
ents rear theirs. The trouble is that
some of the foolish parents go abroad
and take their children with them, and
the gentle English critic, whose most
serious fault is generalizing, has seen
fit to judge the American child by the
conduct 81 these children of unwise
parents.

FAIR CRAFT SCARCE
Management Has to Contend
With but One Case

ST LOUIS, Mo-. Oct 9-Charles M.
Reeves, chief of the department of do
mestlc exploitation. has completed his
report OF the legislative work of the
worlds fair, for submission to Presi-
dent Francis. 1t shows that the states
OF the American Union have expended
about $4,000, 900 on their buildings and
EXHIBITS at the exposition.
Speaking of the absence of graft in
connection with state appropriations.
Mr. Reeves today said
In only one state out of the fiftv-
one states, territories and possessions
having buildings and exhibits on the
exposition grounds were we approach
ed with corrupt proposition, and that
was not made to me direct. A clique of
about seven men declared they con-
trolled the legislature of the~state in
question and they demanded considera-
ton for passing a bill appropriating
money for the states participation in
the fair.
This was not considered for a mo-
ment and the bill was defeated. We at
once arranged a private subscription
plan which worked we'll, but the peo-
pie, without hint from st. Louis, sur
missed the reasons for the failure of the
bill, and l have been told that every
one of the seven was defeated for re-
nomination or reelection at the suisse
quent primaries and elections. The
next legislature made a rather liberal
appropriation.
Few promises were made. Neither
patronage nor passes We're held out to
legislators as inducements to them to
support our bills, and yet but three
states were without representation
when the exposition opened-Delaware
South Carolina and Florida.
"a bill was passed by the South Car
DINA legislature of 1902, but represen-
tation failed for other reasons. Florida
has since swung into line with an ex-
hibit"
