BU.cn a strong persistent rumor reached the Ultimate Consumer That the tariff would! be lessened when revised That he chortled in his glee when he thought, of duty free On the many luxuries of life he prized, But his gleefulness gave way to a dark and cold dismay When he read the way the tariff was "reduced." For the things the tariff freed were the things he didn't need, Or were articles which no one , else produced. They let in oils and hides and some chemicals besides. While clothing was increased to twice its cost. He sneered with cold disdain at the duty on champagne; But when he looked at shirts his sneer was lost. He didn't give a damn for the increase put on camphor What he'd have liked to see was none on wheat. What cared he for cheaper twine, arocruiv oiiu mining. When the price of hose might leave him with cold feet? He never- bought uranium or English grown geranium What use to him to let such things in free? But they stung him good and proper when it came to pipes and copper. And then to rub it in freed emery. He thought it indefensible as well as reprehensible That tariff makers were so sly and deep, "For It seems to me," he 6aid, "I had better live in bed, When the only thing I want that's free is sleep."

THE TOUGH KID.

, We pat ourselves on the back, uvost of us. in the fond belief that Richmond is altogether free from such problems as are recognized as problems in other places. And it Is conspicuously true thai, for the most part we have no tough element here. It Is this very thing which makes Richmond loath to fas the problem of the Gang and the Tough Kid. For the Gang and the Tough Kid are here. And what is more to the point, they have been here for a considerable period. The robbing of a business place, amounting to a grand larceny offense In most instances i3 not a thing that happens out of the clear sky. In the case of a tough kid with established connections with a circle of friends with perverted instincts of honesty and general conduct, grand larceny and a spectacular "get-away" mean something. It means a rotten spot in the scheme of things in a town. It means not an individual case, but that more things of the same sort will happen. This has nothing to do with the ordinary ' bad boy," and should not be confused unless the conditions are such that the "bad boy" is turned into a crook. Your young animal with a super-abundance of good spirits, radiating health in mind and body may get into a remarkable lot of mischief, much to the annoyance of maiden ladies, other boys' mothers, and smug and proper citizens. Such a boy may even be a failure in school and make good in the Big Game. It is because he is too full of health in body, mind and spirits to hold himself in the narrow bounds of prescribed manners, established by his elders. But moral rottenness, embracing a disdain for the truth and 6heer honesty are not the attributes of the ordinary boy. An dany classification which confuses the two is dangerous. There is no use dragging In the causes of the tough Kid. The principle of the gang is well enough understood without referring to the various writers on adolescent psychology. In simple words the fault lies first with the parents. And when the parent fails it is the duty of the officers of the law. There has been too much sentimentality connected with youthful offenders in some places it can be heard that it is "easy." There are many unfortunate things in connection with the mingling of young boys with older offenders. Obviously, the county jail is no place for them. The laws of the state have, perhaps, not been constructed along the best lines for the correction of this sort of thing. But when ther? is no other method and the parents refuse to do their duty, it must be evident that the law has to step in. The problem of the tough kid and the gang reaches its real climax long before the law comes in. It is doubtful whether much can be done in reformation. The thing must be prevented unless parents are willing to see their offspring In serious trouble. 'All discussion of this sort of thing eventually goes into the channels of the work of Judge Llndsey. Most of his juvenile work is with those unfortunate boys who have no families. When there are families and no Judge Lindsey, that is another matter.

MAYORS

DEMAND

Commission Form of Govern ment Asked by Illinois Officials. PETITION TO GOVERNOR Peoria, 111., Oct. 1. In the name of the twenty larger cities of Illinois sixty mayors and special commissioners demanded from Governor Deneen that he request the special session of the legislature to pass an enabling act fori the commission form of eovernment for cities. On top of this the "chlo roform method" of slaughtering bills at Springfield, unpleasing to the house machine, was scathingly condemned. . Representative Frederick E. Erlckson, member of the republican state committee and chairman of the house committee on municipal corporations, was personally attacked in unsparing terms. He was charged by unanimous vote of the conference as having willfully killed the commission form of government bill at Springfield last winter. The entire system of manufacturing Illinois statutes was handled without gloves by many speakers. IS SMALLEST PONY (American News Service) Aurora, Ills., Oct. 1. What is claim ed to be the smallest Shetland pony in the world, was born on the farm of T. S. Simpson, six miles south of Aurora. The little animal weighs just eight and one-half pounds, but it is perfect in conformation, is sound and should live the veterinary says. The smallest Shetland heretofore known to breed ers weighed twelve pounds.

You can easily tell by reading the symptoms below whether you have catarrh or not: Offensive breath, frequent sneezine. discharge from nose, stoppage of the nose, huskiness of the voice, tickling la throat, droppings in throat, a cough, pain in the chest, loss of strength, variable appetite, spasms of coughing, low spirited at times, raising of mu cous, difficulty in breathing, loss of vital force. 1 H.

DEVOTION. The Average Child Is Killed With Kindness. No doubt leu children suffer from neglect in their upbringing where one suffers from too much attention. A great deal Is said about the ten neglected ones. There sire institutions and hospitals and organized charities to care for them. But it never occurs to any one to enter a protest on behalf of the child who is killed with kindness, though the killing process is just as fatal in one case as iu the other and the viethu just as deserving of commiseration. One wouldnt expect uuicb from a little plant that was pulled up by the roots every day to see how it was growing, and yet that is pretty much the way some women watch and tend their children. They are never out of the range of the watchful mother eye and never out of hearing of that admonishing voice which says, "Nov,-, do be careful." It is pretty well for a mother to know about a child's play as well as his eating and sleeping, what his companions ate like and what kind of games he plays; but, askle from that, there is such a thing as an overdose of watchfulness. It probably never occurs to such a mother that she is actually harming her child by her continued watchfulness, but the truth is that she is making him self eons'-iotis aud lacking iu assurance and developing iu him a 6ort of repression and timidity which are positively harmful to him. both physically and mentally. The devotion of modern mothers comes In for a word of criticism in a recent issue of Harper s Bazar. The following dialogue illustrates the case in point: "Reggie, where are you?" "Just here." "What are you doing?" "Nothing." "Now. Reggie, don't try to deceive me. Tell me this minute what are you doing V" "Nothing, mother; just playing with my blocks." "Well, be careful." "I'm being it." And it seems that this boy was frail. Suppose you had to live through days of that sort of thing, wouldn't you be rather frail? The verdict of the doctor who was called in to prescribe for this frail boy was "too much watching." "Let him aloue." he said. "There is a sort of psychological influence which is bard to explain that works on the child who is always watched and which takes the life out of him." And the doctor is quoted as saying further: "The care you take of the child is nine parts selfish. You are really less coDcerued about bim than you are about yourself. You don't want to have to worry about something that may happen to him. That is what is frighten lug you." The doctor s analysis of the mother's concern seems a little harsh, but it does suggest that a more truly unselfish spirit would tie oue. which would risk a few tumbles and bruises and even a broken bone or two rather than to worry and harass her small son into a state ..:.?.. m, "Shakespeare's works are marvelous revelations of poetry." "Poetry:" echoed the Baconian scornfully. "They are only a collection of ciphers, with some figures of speech tnrown in to make them harder." Washington Star.

TOO MUCH

INSURANCE BY UNIONS

Cigarmakers Have Comprehensive Plan of Benefits. THE RAILWAY BROTHERHOODS Four Principal Organizations Insure Members at Cheaper Rates Than the Old Line Companies Average Cost Per 11,000. Discussing trades onion insurance in the Typographical Journal. Don C. D. Moore present the following interest ing data: The Cigarmakers' union is one of the most Interesting of all the unions for study In the working of labor union insurance. The union has been in existence since ISU4 and began paying sick and death benefits in 1SS1. tweu-ty-elgbt years ago, and out of work benefits in 1SS3. The membership of the cigarmakers approximates that of the International Tj prographical union, or upward of 45.000. In addition to the three forms of insurance sick, death and disability and out of work the organization provides for strike benefits and maintains a loaning fund for traveling members, which amounted in 1900 to $50,050. Applicauts who are suffering from any chroulc disease or who are more than fifty years of age receive no sick benefits and not more than $50 death benefits, but they pay only 15 cents weekly dues, or half the regular per capita. Out of Work Benefit. A member who for two years has paid his dues is entitled to receive during unemployment $3 weekly for six weeks. After m intermission of seven weeks he may again receive the same sum for another six weeks, but not more than $54 in any oue year. The amount paid out in l'JOtl. the latest available figures, was $23,011. or an average cost of 00 cents per member per year. Sick Benefit. A member who has paid his dues for an entire year has the right to receive $5 weekly during bis sickness, but not to exceed thirteen weeks. No benefits are paid the first week, and if the sickness is caused by drunkenness or vice no benefit may I ... .. ... i.- " . m Lit.-, 'iiu iu liKHi amounted to $nK.yor. or $3.9 per capita.

If the deceased has been a member for five years -52t!0 is paid, for ten years $:;.-) and fifteen years $550 An Interesting feature of this part of : the system is that if a member be toi tatiy diswi.ieu. losing, say. his eyesight i or the use of l.th hands, he receives ! a lump siim equal to t tie amount nis family would receive in case of his J death.

Brotherhood of Locomo tive Kngineers $1,500 OrUer of Kail way Conductors 1.000 Brotherhood of locomotive Firemen 1,500 Brotherhood of Kailway Trainmen 500 850 In this connection the cost of insurance to the members, compared with the cost in private companies, should be interesting to those who coutend that .labor unions cannot furnish in surance as cueaa -s the companies j makinc it a business.

Moreover, the insurance companies' rates cover ; payments only In case of death, while the brotherhoods pay the same amount for total disability as for death no small matter in such dangerous occupations as railroading. Pittsburg Papers Bear the Label. All of the daily newspapers in Pittsburg now carry the Allied Printing Trades council label. This is one of the developments since the recent unionizing of the town, at which time the fire papers were brought into the fold. It is the first time in the history of the printing business in Pittsburg that all of the papers have carried the label. President Merz writes. "It is now nearly sir months since the signing of the new agreement, and everything Is progressing satisfactorily In the recently acquired offices." Typographical Journal. Money Comes In Bunches to A. A. Chisholm. of Treadwell. N. Y.. now. His reason is wejl worth reading: "For a long time I suffered from indigestion, torpid liver, constipation, nervousness, and general debility," he writes. "I couldn't, sleep, had no appetite, nor ambition, grew weaker every day ia spite of all medical treatment Then used Electric Bitters. Twelve bottles restored all my oldtime health and vigor.
