A POOR RICH BOY.

Much has been written. and properly. about the sufl'eringS of the little children of the poor. but we imagine that few of these are entitled to any more >ympa- thy than one of the little chil- dren of the rich who. according to telegraph accounts, is mewcd up in a mansion in New Jersey while his mother. the widow of a deceased railroad and tin-platc magnate, is making a Splurgr in society in Paris and Berlin.
 This child is six years old and heir to S5O.000, ,000. He is kept under guard in a S3,00O. .0OO man. sion. He cannot walk out on the grounds without the attendance of a maid and govcrness and when he goes outside the grounds he must travel in guided autu- mobile and be attended by a cOachman and footman and his constant feminine suite. All his food is sterilized and fed to him according to a menu prescribed by the family physician.
 It is nothing short of criminal to deprive such lad of the joys of boyhood. It is an offense against hoy nature to cheat him of frst-hand knowledge about swimming holes and chilblains and stone bruises and baseball and playing marbles for "keeps' and coastina belly buster and hop scotch and "shinny on your own side" and crack the whip and the fOraging into orchards and mel on patches and the wrestling with self-manufactured misery result ant from eating impossible things at impossible times. What is that boy ever going to amount to if he lives to manhood without ever having carried a snake or toad in his pocket or Swappcn jack knives "Sight -unSrrm? 7"
 This pamp"r"d pet of n'is~ guided millionaire guardians .S the poorest boy We eve" hraid about and ""',' sorry frf him. Ii his manhuurl is to be as barren as his youth. he will be he mos! miserable heinz in the world.

SEARCHING FoR GOLD "
 cHAMPAaNE BOTTLES

Extensive search is being made
 in Trinity county, Cal, for cham
 pagne bottles of the vintage of
 1852. Excellent as would be the
 beverage if the bottles were filled
 with champagne, there is some
 thing far more valuable in them.
 The story runs that S8l ,000
 worth of gold dust was. hidden
 away in those old hotties by An drew Johnson and James Martin, a negro, who murdered Arnold Smith, a tavern keeper who had accumulated the gold dust, which at that time was current me- dium of exchange. Johnson af- terward killed the negro and bur- jed the dust in the champagne bottles. He died a few years ago in Salt Lake City, confessing his crimG and leaving map indicat- ing the location of the missing treasure. It is this map that is lending courage and inspiration ito the seekers after the hidden wealth.

THE WORDS WE USE.

Leonard Porter Ayers. StatiS- tician for the Russell Sage Foun- datiOn. has been making an in vestigatiun which indicateS that the American people have almost limited vocabulary. He has had access tu more than 30.O0O let ters on all subjects from mail orders to honest love, and finds that Scanty list of o.0Ol words cover the rntire use.
 This i> about onr-SiXtl of the number of words taught in the spelling classes of the public schools. And worse yet, over a third of these 2.O0l were used but once, while i3 were used so much that of all he words iabulated they made up a round half. Fur moiI of he day. lack of leisure for clear and dist met ideas. lack of choice in swift dictation OF of ZeSt for the picturesque phrase and tailur-madc term, something, whatever il be. has robbed our letters of their former charm and has given us lame druggets for the Oldtimr tapestries.
 In he actual list of these over worked words there are many questions for the musing mind. "YOu,' for instance, is credited with G35 appearances: but '1'' runs up a score of iO80. Miss appears more than eight times as often as "Mrs.' By pleasant coincidence. ring" appears pre- cisely as often as "girl.' "Moth- err is found almost twice as often as 'fathcr.'
 Teachers and students of the language may find an interesting study in an analysis of Mr. Ay- ers' report. IL is surprising what scant use is made of language so rich in words and their shades of meaning.

GREAT PROGRESS.
1t is less than a year since tn

It is less than year since the constitutional amendment pro- viding for the direct election of United States senators by the people was submitted by congress to the states, and already the leg islatures of 2f of theIn-Mass- achusetts, California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Nevada. Col OradO, Arizona, New Mexico, Tex as. Minnesota, Ohio, Iowa, Mich igan, West Virginia, North Caro- lima, New York, New Hampshire, Maine, Vermont and south Da- kota-have ratified it.
 Here we have more than one half of he necessary states lined up in favor of the seventh amendment. IL is remarkably rapid work as such things go. and this SWiftneSS gives perfect proof of the demand of public for the reform. You do not find legislatures acting with any such speed. or acting at all, if they are not sure that popular opinion has the whip hand over hnID

Are they feverish, restless,
nervous, irritable, dizzy or con-

pick their nose or grind their
teeth? Have they cramping
pains, irregular and ravenous
appetite? These are all signs
of worms. Worms not only
cause your child suffering. but
stunt its mind and growth. Give

worms, improves your child's
