LITTLE RUTH CLEVELAND.

Thongh the President's Daughter She Had Common Meusles. Doubtless, every plain, ordinary citizen from one end of the country to the other has had the measles at some time or other. The malady is no respecter of persons. It invades the mansion of the rich as well as the lowly cot of the poor; V*- _

the palace of the king ns well as the hut of the peasant. It entered the home of President Cleveland and two of his little tots were stricken. Esther, the President’s second oldest daughter, wos attacked first. Every precaution was taken to keep it from tin other children, Rutn and Marion, but despite every effort the former, the first born of the President, also fell a victim.
