When MY little boy is gone,
House 50 lonesGne an the day,
l can hardly stand the quiet
And ] want to get away
Silence seems like something real
And it settles like stone
On my heart until-God help me.
When my little boy Is gone.
When my little boys away.
Everything seems kind Of blue;
And his playthings in the corner
Act as u they missed nm t,,.,.
Hold their little hands 10 me,
Like there's something they would
say
Mutely calling for their master
When my little boys away.
When my little boy comes back,
He'll drive out this beastly quiet;
lie will fiji the stil1 old house
With his happy, childish riot;
All his playfhines will be glad.
And there won't be any lack

nomy in navy yard management says
Admiral John X Barton. engineer in
his annual re1ort to the secretary
of the navy.
Admiral Barton declares that en-
giHecling in the navy has reached
such a point that two things must
be done; at least twenty officers or
the grades of lieutenant commander
and lieutenant should be ordered at
once to shore duty connected with his
bureau, and a fixed policy should be
adopted Of assigning permanently
number of officers T. engineering

the bureaus school Of instruction is
urged. that organization program

physically. Our doctor examined her
and told us that she had scabies uhe

etc, brought on from exposure and the
effects of her ragged edged life. Her
poor body was mass OF sores from
scratching and she was not able 70
retain solid food. We tried many things,
a good tonic was prescribed and baths
with a rubbing of lard and sulphur. We
worked hard for seven weeks aud you
can imagine how discouraged "" w"re

THE WEST The
BATTLE-GROUND
Is 1t Disaffected Toward Re-
publicans and for
Bryan?
BY Ernest G.. Walker.
Iail Special to the Advertiser.)

Mail 0pecldI 10 bnC A0N t1 bloI4.}
WASHINGTON, D. c., June Is
There is much uncertainty about the
metes and bounds of the disafected
West. - The term has sprung into cur
rent use since the Chicago convention.
The wise men in both political parties
would like to know more about its ex-
tent. The one who could define it ac-
curately and authoritatively, would
have more valuable knowledge about
the presidential campaign than all the
Republican and Democratic leaders to-
gether now have or are likely to have
for number of months.
As matter of fact 1.-the disaffected
West, comprises about all there is of
real live interest in the presidential
campaign thus far For the rank and
file of voters do not care much about
what has been determined upon. They
knew that Taft was to be nominated,
before the Chicago convention met.
They know now that Bryan is to be
at Denver They know that
Bryan S chances are slim indeed in the
East, unless something happens between
now and November to overthrow all
calculations. Where everything is as
certain as anything can be in politics,
men refuse to get very excited. They
content themselves with drifting along
and waiting for the verdict at the polls.
But ''the disaffected Vest was a
discovery to the Republicans at Chi,
eago, although President Roosevelt
seems to have had complete knowledge
OF 1t and to have been planning the
Republican campaign accordingly. The
opposing Republican faction thought it
was wiser than he and blocked some
OF the convention plans he had made
and now ''the disaffected Vest is
figuring in all the maps that the poll

NAVAL OFFICERS MUST
PRESERVE SECRECY

NEW YORK, July 2.-In an order
which is one of the most sweeping ever
issued at the New York Navy Yard
all officers and men employed in the
construction of the new 20,000-ton bat
tleship whose keel viii be laid within
a few weeks are forbidden to give out
any information whatsoever to the
newspapers or to the public.
So strict is the wording of the orders
chat the officers in charge of the de-
partment of construction and repair, to
whom it is particularly addressed, will
not even give the name of the author
Rear-AdmiraI Caspar F. Goodrich,
eommandant of the yard, is in Wash
ington, and it is believed that the order
had its origin there. One officer did
venture the information that the CON
tents of the document would probably
be made public within few days.
