JUST FOR BOYS.

Marshalltown Times-Repubiican:
Two boys were talking. One has
/ job. The other has an 'indulgent
I father and looks on work as an evil
to be avoided The gilded youth was
going away for time and wanted
the other fellow to go along Sew
eral fellows were going, the cam
paign plans called for pretty fierce
program but which was not without
attractiveness. But the boy with
job replied decidedly: Gee, I'd like
to go but haven't. the money and if
had dad wouln't let me go with
you fellows. He's next" So he
stayed on the job. And the "old
man" who was "next" kept an eye
on him, not domineering eye but
| the careful, fatherly eye of the dad
who remembered his youth, it's
temptations and weaknesses, a help
full eye wise with wisdom dearly
purchased before the boy was born.
A boy is very much the kind of
man his father makes him. There is
no discount on the mother influence
but it is the father who must be
next" to the character of the boys
companionship and pursuits. He
has the chance to "get next"
Mother hasn't. And if he fails to
be next he is either too good for
the world or too careless to be a
father of real boy.
Most fellows never know what a
direct blessing and protection it. is
to a boy to be without 1.-The money"
The worst thing on earth which can
happen to a boy is to have plenty
of spending money" and nothing to
do. And fool fathers who furnish
the one and neglect to furnish the
Iother are seven times out of ten do
ing a greater injury to the future
man than if they turned him penni-
less away from home.
The young fellow who comes to
the city from the country with
health and ability never "has the
money" but take note it is he who
succeeds the manager of the big
business, not the son who always has
the money and the time. If one
takes the trouble to dig up the early
history of the men who are actually
bossing the world in business, liter
ature, politics and all the vial &C.
tivities he will find that nearly al
of these hadn't the money or the
time. The fellow who takes thing:
over in the big things must have
worked under pressure. 1t is i'm
possible to make manly man and
winner without early training as Il
is to put a fellow who never saw
baseball into the box against the
Cubs" and expect him to win his
game.
You got to get onto the curves
boys. It's the only way. Dad:
money doesn't buy much but auto
mobiles and clothes. 1t can't make
: you a winner. When runners stril
for a marathon it's leg and lunt

clean living, conformation and desire

Never mind the money. It's nice

FOR CONSTIPATION.
A Medicine That Does Not Cost Any
thing Unless it Gives Saisfac-
tory Relief.

If you suffer from constipation in
any form whatever, acute or chronic,
we will guarantee to supply you
medicine that we honestly believe
will effect permanent relief if taken
with regularity and according to di-
rections for a reasonable length Of
time. Should the medicine fail to
benefit you to your entire satisfac-
ton we promise that it shall cost
you nothing.
No other remedy can be compared
with Rexall Orderlies for the easy,
pleasant and successful treatment Of
constipation. The active medicinal
ingredient of this remedy, which is
odorless, tasteless and colorless, is
an entirely new discovery. Com
bined with other valuable ingred-
tents, it forms a preparation which
is incompatible as a perfect bowel
regulator, Intestinal inyigorator and
strengthener. Rexall Orderlies are
eaten like candy, and are notable for
their gentle and agreeable action.
They do not cause gripping or any
disagreeable effect or inconvenience,
and may be taken at any time, day

he use. All the torrent of talk SEEM
ed to rise spontaneously and the de-
luge was complete.
"Withal, Senator Smith spoke to
good effect for a new senator. He
held the attention of more Repub-
lican senators during his address
than mary of his older Democratic
associates do when they rise to ad-
dress the senate. He did more. He
baited Senator Aldrich until that
leader rose to defend the tariff from
the South Carolina onslaught. That
was how vigorously the attack was
made. Senator Smith is not exactly
of the fre-eating type, but he bor-
ders closely on it. It is suggested
that a little more senate training
will temper him somewhat and that
he is, therefore, destined to become
forceful debator."
If this keeps up South Carolina
will have a regular "catch-em-alive"
man in the senate before congress
adjourns.

Washington, April 25.-Ever since
Senator Ellison Durant Smith, Of
South Carolina, made his advent
into Washington political life last

Senator Smith, of South Caro-

last evening puts in the clearest light
what this contest really is. The state
ment Of Messrs, Griscom, Grulewttch,
Kracke, Wanmaker and Henkel
proves conclusively the trickery that
was used in the effort to win a ma
jority and keep the management of
the party under the control of the
men who have discredited 1t by their
actions
There has never been State con-
vention to which il was better worth
going than this: for never in any
other has the issue been SO clearly
drawn between cleanliness and hon
esty In politics and honesty in pub
lie life and that peculiar baseness In
political management which has made
the very word politicians obnoxious to
the people
"Our fight is squarely against cor
ruption and the unclean bossism
which has bred corruption. The men,
who by trickery kept control of the
State committee, and who now come
here in the effort to dominate the
convention. are the very men who are
responsible for corruption which pro-
duced Aids. and for all that has been
discreditable in the party manage
ment; and now these deeply discred-
tied bosses resent the effort of the
people. the effort OF the plain people
who make up the great bulk of the
Republican party, to rescue that party
from the faction which has used it
only TO further their own base and
selfish purposes"
The colonefs statement was issued
after he had spent the greater part
Of the night threshing over the action
of the State committee in defying
him and re-endorsing Sherman.
So bitter was the feeling to-day be-
tween the two factions that it was
freely predicted that there would be
actual fighting before the convention
finally concluded its work.
Last nights meeting OF the State
committee. when the selection of Vice
President Sherman as temporary
chairman was affirmed, has angered
the Roosevelt following, To-day they
are urging to throw the entire State
convention out of order. They are

the nature OF a compromise, but that
platform be framed and damned
through which will be ultra-progres-
