ington was living under the same roof and in
the same house."
But this was nothing to the loneliness
that was to come to him during the dark hours
of the Revolution when he was trying to keep
together the wretched little army which con-
gress had given him for winning the independ-
ence of the new naton-and then gave him moth
ing more, certainly not enough supplies or even
moral support for carrying on his almost in
superable task Even when he had been success
full, when the nation had rewarded him
with the highest honor in its power by making
him its first President, he was also the first
to discover what every President since then has
learned-that the Presidency is a lonely job
wherein the occupant of that position never
knows whom to trust For no sooner was he
made President than he found himself travel
ing lonely path between two opposing politi-
cal ideals-the monarchial tendencies of the
Federalists and the democratic theories of the
Republicans.
So he followed his lonely course to the end.
ION Saturday, December a. 1899, at ten o'clock
in the night, he died. And suddenly the people
of America, who had not paid much attention
to the bitter attacks made against him during
his lifetime acclaimed him as the Father of
His Country.
HE was buried in the ground of Virginia
which he had loved SO dearly. And the Ameri-
can school children now make pilgrimages to
his tomb on the Potomac. They are told that he
was great Soldier, great President, great
Sage. They are told that he was good. generous,
untiring. disinterested, sublime. And no doubt it
is all true.
But the children are not told that he was the
last of the great land barons; that because of
his love of land he directed the United States
to the West; that he made great efforts to keep
Americans from dispensing their strength in dis
cussing' theories; that with all his energy he
had worked to give them strong central gov
eminent in order to destroy their tendency to
quarrel among themselves and that he had In
structed them to love their country above every
thing else.
The children are not told that he was the first
of the great modern politicians who had an in
fallible instinct for public opinion and that this
made him create practical aristocracy which
the United States needed. while Adams and
Hamilton completely failed in realizing their
vain dreams of monarchy and nobility and JEFF
ferson. in his democratic philosophy, eclipsed
by sterile triumph.
They are not told that had he lived year
longer he would have seen the American people
disayow him and all his work by solemn vote.
and that without doubt he would have entered
into a tragic conflict with Jefferson. The snow
wind and rain of Virginia and the doctors of
Mount Vernon. in their cruel wisdom had done
well by George Washington

Roma Lucille, was constipated from
babyhood. I became worried about
her and decided to give her some
California Fig Syrup. 1t stopped her

LONDON. May IA real-life

tenary Of his distinguished uncle,

land"
At the instance of Professor Col
lingwood, an attempt is being made
to interest society here in a plan
TO build Lewis Carroll ward for
children.
Everything in the ward. from
walls TO beds, is TO be decorated by
great artists with illustrations of
Alice in Wonderland"
The following appeal, written by
Professor Collingwood, is being cir
cmaceo to arouse interest in the
plan:
Children never should be ILL.,.
said Alice.
And they wouldn't be. If they
didn't eat me- said the lobster.
I'm just as unwholesome as
you the walrus broke in, but I've
never been eaten.
Well, I'm not surprised. snapped

And why aren't you?' asked the
walrus in a very threatening voice.
Alice felt that it would be wise

and there ought to be some lovely
place where they would be made

But who can build tt? asked
Alice.

But what about the beds?'
asked Alice. We mustn't forget
the Queens suggestion
Who said 'beds?' squeaked the
Doormouse, waking up with a start.
Nobody can make beds as well as
can. or sleep in them as soundly.'
And he went TO sleep again.
How kind you all arel' exclaimed
Alice. But you know it will cost
ever so much money, hundreds and
thousands of pounds. I'm so afraid
we shall never be able to get it;
and do so want the sick children
to get well again they were
meant TO be happy
Tears began to I'LL her eyes. and
she turned away to hide them.

But at length the silence is broken
by the voices Of workmen ana the
sound of hammer and saw.
Those who knew Alice are build
ing a wonderland for children
where pain will be lost in happi-

they are doing this because Alice
was a child. and because they
