You who fill with joy our home:
Oh how sweet are baby days,
Gliding noiselessly away!
Come We'll dry the tear drops now
Smooth the cares from childish brow
Greater battles must be won,
Than these sorrows, little chum.
What's the trouble, youngster bold?
You, who strong dominions hold
Ger the hearts of all mankind
Der the greatest master mind
Could you but the future span,
Read your life from fate's strange
hand,
Greater troubles would unfold
Than these trifles, youngster bold.
Oh. forget your grief. my boy
Haste, life's golden hours enjoy;
All too soon the time will wan
Till you cross LIES Rubicon:
When life's harp will silent be,
And your mind from cares go free,
Sorrows then will turn to joy
In Gods playground, little boy.

What's the Trouble, Little Boy?

What's the trouble, little boy

Why the tears in your bright eyes.
Or The look of panied surprise?
Life's perplexities will come
When you've grown to manhood

Dry your eyes for smiles of 10Y.
Tears were never meant for boys"
What's the trouble, Daddys man.
Let's dispel it while we can:
Childhood's days are far too brief
To be marred by hours of grief.
And the pain-tho' deep it seems
Soon must vanish like youths dreams
Like soldier brave, you stand
Full of courage, little man.
What's the trouble, boy O. mine
Someone spoke word unkind?
Yet you stand and vainly strive
Tears from big blue eyes to drive:
Quivering lips to steady, too
That's the man see in you
All how quick we near the time,
When life's hard-O, boy o. mine.

After gazing at the iewelry exhibited
in the window of the jewelry store of
A. ID. Spiro, East Seventh street, about

entire amount at one time, but would
make a deposit of $25 and asked if the

envelope and substituted an imitation,
worth about 80, and returned the en-
velope to the counter.
In securing the ring, the name Of Tom

FINDS WEST CHILLED
TOWARD HARDING
Roosevelt Declares G. o. P. Can
didate is Defeating Himself on
His Own Front Porch.

Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 3l-Senator
Harding's statements as to how he would
conduct the Presidency have thrown a
chill into the Republican campaign in
the West, Franklin d. Roosevelt, Demo-
cratic Nice-Presidential nominee, declared
in an address here last night.
''Nisiens of the Senate cabal, OF an
insidious power behind the chief magis-
trate, will not down." he said. "The PEN
roses and Watsons and Smoots and
Lodges are at least no more popular
than in the past. The people want
leader, not syndicate Presidency"
Mr.. Roosevelt's address was preceded
by parade and public reception. He
spoke in the afternoon at both Delphi
and Monticello.
Giving his entire address over to his
findings in the West, the candidate de-
clared that part of the country was asking
why the Republican candidates were not
going to visit it.
There are vivid memories of Mr..
Hughes's disastrous campaign to the
Pacific coast In 1916" he said, adding:
THAT failure was a failure because Mr..
Hughes's one great argument was that
everything any Democrat had ever done
was horrible catastrophe. He was un-
Hcutfpus lie WAS hnocher ana not Il
booster.
To-day the feeling is very much the
same. The West is rapidly getting the
idea that the present managers of the
Republican campaign are pursuing the
same tactics, but that they are afraid to let
their candidate go west OF the Mississippi.
1t is argued that their fear is a repetition
of 1916

100000 CASH GONE;
PHILA. BANKER HELD
Fidelity Trust Official Said to Have
Lost the Money Betting on
Horses.

Philadelphia, Aug. 31-Charles F,
1oomey, an assistant secretary of the
Fidelity Trust Company, was arrested
yesterday on charges of embezzlement
of over $500, 900 from an estate handled
by the bank.
"Well, / expected to be arrested, and
am glad it is all over" Toomey said as
be was approached by Joseph lie Strange.
a city detective, at 53rd and Walnut
streets.
Toomey returned Sunday to his
home, No. 100 South 50th street, after
a two-weeks' vacation, with his wife
at Lake George and Champlain, where
If is said they visited the most expensive
hotels. When arraigned before Magis-
trate MacLearv at the Central Station
he was held In s25 900 bail for court.
According to the bank officials and
city detectives Toomey confessed taking
the money and gambling most of it away.
They said he started with small amounts,
meaning to pay back each 'loan," but
gradually got In deeper and deeper until
be realized there was DO hope of "souaring
matters" and felt relieved when the end
came.
After his arrest yesterday as he was
about to enter barber shop he went with
the bank officials to the trust companys
Offices and went over the books Harold
l.. Better, counsel for the bank, stated:
''They say be used the money for
betting on horse races at Saratoga,
Havre de Grace and this city. His wife
knew nothing of his alleged speculations."
Several hours after his arrest his brother
was notified. He was present at the hear
ing and afterward left to notify Mrs.
Toomey.
The bank officials say Toomey used
q fictitious account to cover up his
borrowings" crediting this account in
the books of the estate, the name Of which
the bank refused to reveal, and would then
pay the amount to himself. This has
been going on for some months, the
officials say, and the first irregularity was
discovered some days after he left on his
vacation.
A question arose concerning a certain
transaction In which this estate figured,
and In attempting to straighten out the
matter other irregularities were discovered.
An audit OF the books made during Toom-
eys absence showed them so badly
muddled that without Toomey's help
II is believed, it would have been a te-
mendous undertaking to find out Just
bow much is missing.
The loss rs entirely covered by Toomey's
bond, Mr.. Better asserted and any money
missing will be made good to the estate.
The amount involved is small ia com
parison with the capital and surplus of
the bank. The bank itself is in no way
endangered, he stated.
Toomey is forty nine years old and
has been with the trust company for
twenty SIX years, having worked up from
the position OF office boy.
