 If Champ Clark had served the right as he sought to serve him. self he would be the convention nominee.

The Peevish Child 2
 Needs a Laxative

1t is natural for child to laugh and play and when 1t sulks drowsily or cries you may depend on it something physical is the matter. If you see no evidences of a serious ailment you will not be wrong if you quietly give 1t Q dose of mild laxative that evening on putting it to bed.
 The remedy most generally recom- mended for this purpose is Dr. Cald- wells Syrup Pepsin, which mothers throughout the country have been giving their children for quarter of cen tury. Today thousands of families are using it where hundreds used it then, and there must be good reason for this word of mouth recommendation.
 It is admittedly the perfect laxative for children, women. old people and all others who need a gentle bowel stimu- lant and not a violent salt cathartic pill or doctored water. Dr. Caldwells Syrup Pepsn will act gently, and when taken before retiring will bring com

ROOSEVELT ON HAOLEY
(By William A White in St Louis

Chicago, June 22.-War has Fbee. declared.
 The. 'dore Roosevelt and Will liam Jtn. 7ings Bryan will form a third poEtteA, party to be known as the "Amerle.'
 Roosevelt will atts' ma the balti- more convention.
 The most terrific fight ia the whole political arena will wage in Missouri.
 Those are Theodore Roosevelt's to the press before leaving Chic ago. He planes his defeat on the Governor of Missouri, whom he refers to as the "Show-Me Puke."
 II have all but consented to appear at the Democratic con vend1n at the request of that noble and patriotic statesman, William Jennings Bryan, . said Roosevelt in declaration to the newspaper men.
 II would have been elected president on the Republican tic ket were 1t not for that Bene- dict Arnold that Judas lscarlot Herbert s. Hadley of Missouri. America, too. alas, has an lsmay but Hadley is his name.
 'Hadley is a bitter subject and 1 shall waste no time selecting sweet words in which to handle him. His desertion of me won the Democratic party 100, % votes in the state of Missouri.
 'Hadley is sublimated audaci- ty, transcendant inpudence, inn maculate nerve, triple-plated cheek, brass in solid slugs, and shoddy all the way through. He aired lis asinity in the coaven- ton hall and allowed the presi= dential bee to buzz in his bonnet while wiser men looked on ane al his ignorance.

POWER OF TRUTH

Editorial in Dubuque Iowa Telegraph Herald: Champ Clark failed of the democratic nomina- tion for president because at a crucial moment when confronted with choice between right and expediency the chose the latter.
 He had been a supporter of Bryan in three campaigns to have opposed Bryan would have cost him his seat in congress. He had professed himself a progress SiYe democl at and on many oc- cassi0ns had voted for progress sive measures. To have done otherwise would have resulted in his defeat for rejection. He was accepted the nation over as pro- gressive democrat and he had re ceived the support of the pro. gressive democrats because they assumed him to he of them in sympathy with Bryan ana out oI sympathy with the privileged ln- terests speaking in the voice ot the machine politicians. He did nothing to discourage this view; on the contrary ne encouraged It. At the moment when choice was was pres nted him of Bryan or Parker it appeared that the ele- ment opposed to the progressive element was in majority in the convention. Itappeared that al- liance with thei reactionary ele- ment would win him the prize he sought. the much coveted mo- mination. Vanity called. ambi- tion beckoned. and the promised land stretched out before him. To yield to the eXpediency ot the hour. it seemed to him. was to gain the highest honor within |the gitt of his party ane perhaps i the presidenaz of tie nation. Why should ne A1t yield? He yielded.

SERMON BY 4 TRAWP

Probably no more eloquent or dramatic sermon on the sin of drunkneSs was ever delivered than that to which a small gath ering of drinking men listened in a New Orleans barroom recent ly. The drinkers-a group of well-dressed young men with plenty of money-were standing at the bar when a poor, miser- able specimen of a tramp pushed open the swinging doors, and bleared eyes, looked at them ap- pealingly. They ordered a drink for him, paid for it and then boisterously demanded that he make speech. After swallow ing the liquor the tramp gazed at them for an instant. and then with a dignity and eloquence that showed how far he had falI- en in the social scale, he began to speak; Gentlemen, he said T look tonight at you and at myself. and it seems to me that I look upon the picture of my my lost manhood This bloated face was once as young and hand some as yours. This shambling figure once walked as proudly as yours. q lin the world ot men, 1. too, once had q home, and friends. and position. l had .
