NERVOUS CHILDREN

From early spring until July is tire time
that st. Vitus' dance usually develops
and, nervous children should be carefully
watched during that time for symptoms
of the disease.
Irritability is one of the first signs
noted. The child frets, lie quarrelsome,
cannot be amused and does not sleep
well. The jerky movements and weak
ness characteristic of the disease come lit
tie later. The patient becomes pale, Lam
guild, has little appetite and is usually COM
'stipated. Such child should not be al
lowed to study but should be kept quiet,
given nutritious diet, remain out OF
doors as much as possible and take DR..
Williams Pink Pills to build up the blood
and strengthen the nerves. II unusual
symptoms develop or If the nervous
ness continues to the point of hysteria,
physician should he called. In most
cases the tonic treatment with DIR. Will
liams' Pink Pills is sufficient. Without
treatment St. Vitus' dance may become
chTenic.
Parents Of nervous children should
write to the DR.. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, N. Y, for copy of the
free booklet, Nervous Disorders, A
Method of Home Treatment" and a diet
sbook. called "What TO Eat and How to
Eat Your own druggist sells DIR. Will

Political thought was b1rned in his
direction by republican essity-the
evident need of am unusually strong
man to pit against Woodrow Wilson
next year. Mr.. Taft, it is understood,
does not desire to repeat the expert
ence of 1912 of running against a
democrat, with hostile progressive
hanging on his flank, SO that repub-
lican speculation now concerns itself
with such familiar figures as Senator
Cummins of Iowa Senator Weeks. of
Massa chusetts and even former Vice
President Fairbanks. Any. of these
may be nominated, but if any of them

Objections Made to Roller Skating
on Sidewalks.

Editor Herald
I read in your paper plea for
roller skating on the sidewalks. L
would like to put in a plea for the
elder people and the sick that have to
live on streets where the boys and
girls from eight to sixteen years old
skate from between seven and eight
o'clock in the morning until school
time and from the time rscf1oo1 closes
for noon recess until they go into
school for the afternoon, and from
half past three until after six o'clock
and in the evening until nine and
haf-past nine. Some of them skate
Sundays, SO that we are not free from
that grating noise from the skates
have known people who nave had to
get out and walk on the curbing and
in the gutter to let the children pass
] went out on our veranda just in
time to see an elderly man knocked
down on the walk; some Of the chill
dren skated against him and down he
went; some men passing ran to him to
help him up. Did the children stop !?
no, they laughed to see him fall. The
man was hardly UP before they were
skating back. They only go short
distance before they are back again,
that is the way they 60, anywhere
from dozen to thirty. have
counted that number at one time. It
is anything but pleasant. We cannot
sit out on our veranda as there is so
much noise; we can hear it in the
houses. One lady, a neighbor. said to
me one day last week: Il can not stand
this roller skating. It wears on my
nerves, it makes me sick. I.don't know
what I shall do" The NOISE from the
skates is very harsh where we have it
SO. steady. I have children and like
Ito see them enjoy themselves. / do
feel that older people and people

FACTS AND F'ANCIEs.

We no longer jest of our police
force as the finest we treat it with
more respect Nor do we any longer
demand that it get out and parade
merely that we may see it and boast
about it. The annual parade and in
spection of the force was held yes
terday, and passed without great ex-
citment on the part of the populace
Those who saw it saw body of men
eAcellently disciplined ana drilled,
marching in fine form ana generally
making an admirable showlng.-New
Haven Register.
A Bridgeport man explained that
calling a politician leader signifies
that the politician is in the right Call
him a boss and at least intimate
that he's in the wrong. In other words,
1t newspaper refers to man as a
ward politician the man so referred
to will probably register complaint
before the editors go home for the
night. Refer to the same man as one
of his party's leader and he'll hand
cut a fat cigar the nexc time he
meets the author of the compliment
on the street.-Waterbury American.
That the legislature committee
s1 ould report in favor of the abolition
of ali contract labr at penal institu-
tins Of the state without providing a
substitute means of employing the
men incarcerated is almost unbelive-
sble. Surely the legislature will not
pass such an act. To enact ssuch a
measure as has been reported favor
ably would mean.a radical revolution
in the policy of the state in; caring
for convicts, revolution which must
be accompanied by heavy expenditures
of state funds to av comp lish the change
No provision has been made for such
an appropriation.-New Haven Union.
There is nothing tardy about Nor
man p. Mack's bid for the.next dem
ocratic National convention, He
knows it is gathering worth land
ing and accordingly he wants it in
his home city, Buffalo. Inat would
probably suit New Englanders as
well as any city, unless there We're
one nearer them that could accom-
p1odate and do it handsomely.
The nearer the better, SO rar as con-
venience is concerned to delegates
from this part of the country: and
doubtless there are those in the far
west who think aboue tie same con-
corning their own Interests. AS for
the presidential candidate, it seems
unlikely to make very much differ
cnce whether the convention is held
east or west, north or SOUTH for
there is but one choice and towards
him democracy seems unlikely to
depend upon the location of It's con-
vention for unity. Can republicans
truthfully claim as much Hartford

Vanderbilt, who was drowned when
the Lusitania went to the bottom
Both We're rich men. their wealth was
SO great that eitheraone could have
purchased the ships that were de-
sstroyed and have enough left over to
buy one or more of :. the remaining
large vessels, vet, when. their time
came they went down with the
poorest sailors who, perhaps, did not
nave enough money to buy new suit
OF clothes when they reached port.
When Astor's body was round it was
encircled with a life belt the same
as that encircling the bodies of others,
some Of whom were saved and some
whose bodies were afterwards picked
up by the searchers. A large sum of
money was found in his clothes. The
body of young Vanderbilt has not yet
been found and may never be for that
matter, especially if it is washed out
to sea.
II money could have saved these
!l0n they would nave Ooen Willie
and able to pay a, large sum but that
which they perhaps would like to
! have bought is never for sale under
such circumstances. Men have met
death bravely and never more SO than
on ship board. It was only a few
years ago that ship went down as
the result of wreck in the Pacific
ocean. All were picked up with the
exception Of the captain, who re-
fused to leave his ship, and waving
his cap to the disappearing members
of his crew in boats with the passen-
gers, he went down with his vessel.
Was there. ever a more. brave fellow
in time of danger than Archibald
Butt on the Titanic. 1t is all ques-
ton Of courage when the end is near
and though we all hear In today's de-
spatches that Charles Frohman said
as the. Lusitania was sinking: "Why
fear DEATH we are more inclined to
think of him with blanched face, calm
~ waiting for the waters to engulf
him in a last EN- brace. It Is a most
trying time and he is indeed a brave
fellow who can meet his death under
such circumstances without f1inching.

soil, however, should cause general re-

Doubtless our government does not
lack information of the plants of the
various conservative juntas in this city
and elsewhere. That General Huerta
should be associated in the public mind
with such a movement is inevitable.
He has no reason to feel at home
in any part of the United States, but
he has been living in this city and re-
ceiving deputatiohs of exiled Mexican
statesmen and soldiers. Pasquale
Orozco is here, and some of Huerta' S
other lieutenants in the day of his
glory. Huerta may be going to set
tie in Forest Hills, as his agents say,
and play golf on the public links in
the park all the rest of his life. He
will be welcome if he remains peace

SECRETARY DANIELS. DEFTNSE.

The Literary Digest says that if
constitutional pessimists found read
ing to their taste in the recent
Jeremaids on the decadence and de-
navy the optimists may now console
themselves with a picture Of the naval
situation from the pen OF Secretary
Josephus Daniels. While the facts
set forth by Mr.. Daniels are received
with graduation by the press in gen
eral, not every paper goes as far as
the New. York World. which declares
that every charge lodged against the
navy by its critics is thus disproved.
Yet even the Baltimore American re-
t,rarks that Mr. Daniels is to be con-
\ graduated upon making statement
that gives information and that
affords relief, and the Independent
Washington Post predicts that tho
secretary's dignified reply to his critics
will go far toward conf1ning criticism
10 legitimate differences of opinion as
to policies. This reply, thinks the
Philadelphia Record, disposes Of the
almost reasonable insinuations from
republican sources that the navy has
suff cred a diminution Of efficiency dur
I ing the past two years. And y the
I Springfield Republican, while con-
|. ceding that Secretary Daniels letter
may not tell the whole story, finds It
+ refreshing and comforting to have
something said about the navy that
does not picture it as a mere floating
scrap heap.
Statistics of the recent growth of the
| navy, remarks the New York Times,
have not hitherto been presented in a
/ form so Ineligible to the plain citizen.
These statistics are made public by
/ Secretary Daniels at the request of
President Harry A. Garfield, of Will
