FREELAND, PA., APRIL 15, 1903,
Child Slavery In the North.
A great deal has been written of late
about child labor in the south and espe
cially by our esteemed northern con
temporaries. It is unfortunately a fact
that little children are employed In
some of the southern cotton mills who
ought to be at school and who are be
ing deprived of their childhood. But In
a recent number of McClure's Maga
zine Mr. Francis H. Nichols directs at
tention to child labor In a northern
state, compared with whom those of
the south enjoy a life of ease and
pleasure. These unhappy little tollers
are In the anthracite region of Penn
sylvania and number nearly 30,000, of
whom 24,000 are boys who work for
the mining companies and the other
girls who work in textile mills estab
lished In the mining region in order to
utilize this cheap labor. Thus the pop
ulation of the mining region is becom
ing more and more densely Ignorant,
bitterly bating their employers, but
knowing nothing beyond coal mining
and for this reason absolutely at the
mercy of pitiless corporations—Balti
more Sun.
Not Wonted In St. LonU.
The National Building Trades Coun
cil and the Labor Compendium, both
with headquarters In St. Louis, have
Joined In a circular letter to the build
ing crafts of the country to "pay no ut
teutlou to advertisements calling for
artisans und laborers In the building
lines to come to St. Louis." The letter
states that the city Is overcrowded
with workmen who can get no work
to do and that "St. Louis Is being flood
ed with nonunion and unskilled labor
to work on world's fair buildings. Two
thirds of the members of several un
ions are now Idle."
Aastralian Glrla.
Australian women do not share the
English love of sport They neither
hunt nor shoot but they are all lovers
of horses. The typical Australian girl
cannot only ride and drive, she can
saddle, harness, groom and doctor her
own horse. The country girls are fear
less riders, and In the small townships
•nnnal shows take place, equestriennes
Invariably having place on the pro
gramme, uonprofesslonally.
To Whiten Linen.
Linen which hns acquired a yellow
or bad color through careless washing
may be restored to pristine whiteness
by working it well In water containing
a clear solution of chloride of lime,
rlnHlng It In clear water both before
and after using this bleaching liquor.
"The Botr Snatchera,'*
Marie Corel 11 writes for the Philadel
phia Pruis, Sunday April 19, on "Thz
Body Snatchers"—a savage, unbridled
attack on those who have given and
propose to give memorials at the home
of Shakespeare. Miss Corelll Is nothing
If not sensational when she champions
a cause, and in this vigorous "appeal"
she flays everybody who holds opinions
different from hers on the subject and
attacks generous Americans, including
the lato George W. Chllds and Andrew
Carnegie.

For liver troubles and constipation
There' nothing bettor In creation
Than Little Early Risers, the famous
little pills
They always effect a cure and save doc

Little Early Risers are different from
all other pills. They do not weaken the
system, but act as a tonic to the tissues
by arousing the secretions and restoring
the liver to the full performance of its
functions naturally. Grover's City drug

THE HOTTENTOT.
This poor unfortunate Hottentot
He was not content with his lottentot;
Quoth he, "For my dinner,
As I am a sinner.
There's nothing to put in the pottentot!**
This poor unfortunate Hottentot
Cried: "Yield to starvation I'll nottentot.
I'll get me a cantaloupe
Or else a young antelope.
One who'll enjoy being shottentot."
This poor unfortunate Hottentot
His bow and his arrows he gottentot.
And, being stout hearted.
At once he departed
And struck through the bush at a trotten
tot.
This poor unfortunate Hottentot,
When several miles from his cottentot.
He chanced to set eyes on
A snake that was p'ison
A-tying itself in a knottentot.
Then this poor unfortunate Hottentot
Remarked: "This for me is no spottentott
I'd better be going;
There's really no knowing
If he's trying to charm me or what ten
tot!"
This poor unfortunate Hottentot
Was turning to flee to his grottentot
When a lioness met him
And suddenly "et" him,
As a penny's engulfed by the slottentot.
MORAL.
This poor unfortunate Hottentot
Had better have borne with his lottentot
And grown even thinner
For lack of a dinner.
But I should have had, then, no plotten
tot!

School Board Meeting.
Directors Brogan, Brennan, Boyle,
Buckley, Isaac, Fetterman, Kline, Mc-
Geehan, Shelhamer and Timony were
present at the regular monthly meeting
of the borough school board Monday
evening.
Correspondence that passed between
the secretary and Coxe Bros. & Co. was
read. This related to the action of the
company in advancing the price of coal
in January without notice to the board,
in violation of a verbal agreement made
in December. The only excuse offered
by the corporation for Its breach of
faith was that the price had been ad
vanced to all outside parties on January
0.
A request from Miss Hannah Mc-
Laughlin, asking that her application
for a diploma from Bloomsburg normal
school be endorsed by the board, was
granted.
The monthly report of Supervising
Principal Hanlon showed the enrollment
for the fifth month to be 921; average
attendance, 744; percentage of attend
ance, 83.
The report stated that new primers
and first readers are needed and those
were ordered purchased. Some repairs
at E. B. Coxe school were also ordered
attended to.
The report also gave a full explana
tion of the suspension of John Popsin,
aged 12 years, a pupil of Daniel Coxe
school, who was caught in the act of
committing a nuisance in E. B. Coxe
building.
For some months the directors and
teachers have been annoyed by depre
dations committed at this building, and
the sentiment of the board was that the
time had come to put a stop to the de
struction of school property.
It was decided that the matter be
placed in charge of the building com
mittee and the president and secretary,
with full power to act, and to prosecute
the offender If, after a conference with
the solicitor, that course should be
deemed to be the best for the interest of
the district.
Treasurer Timony's report showed a
balance in the treasury on April 1 of
#1,166.18.
A discussion on the question of adding
another month to the school term then
took place, but no definite action was
taken, the board deciding to meet at the
call of tho chair before the 23d inst. to
further consider the subject.
The following bills were ordered paid:
J. U. Kocber, repairing lock and chair,
50c; Electric Light Company, February
and March light, $2.10; Bernard Boyle,
hauling coal, $7.50; P. J. Boyle, hauling
coal, $2 25; Tribune Printiug Company,
Limited, printing and supplies, $5; Free
land Wator Company, $12.34; John
Montgomery, supplies, #3.05; A. Oswald,
cleaning supplies, $3.10; Coxe Bros. &
Co., February coal, $55 10.
A Sweet Breath
is a never failing sign of a healthy
stomach. When the breath is bad the
stomach is out of order. There is no
remedy in the world equal to Kodol Dys
pepsia Cure for curing indigestion, dys
pepsia and all stomach disorders. Mrs.
Mary S. Crick, of White Plains, Ky.,
writes: "I have been a dyspeptic for
years—tried all kind of remedies but
but continued to grow worse. By tho
use of Kodol I began to improve at once,
and after taking a few bottles ain fully
restored in weight, health and strength
and can oat whatever I like." Kodol
digests what you eat and makes the
stomach sweet. Grover's City drug store.
Reappointed Solicitor.
Charles F. McHugh, formerly of Free
land, who has served as city solicitor of
Wilkesbarre for the past four years, has
been tendered an unanimous re-election
for a term of three years, and the Wilkes
barre Record says:
"Charles F. McHugh was first elected
city solicitor four years ago. Mr. Mc-
Hugh had made an especially worthy
officer and, though the legal business
of the city has been constantly increas
ing, he has not allowed it to accumulate.
He is untiring in his services, courteous
in his dealings with those who come in
contract with him, and has the reputa
tion of having a greater familiarity with
municipal law than any lawyer at the
Luzerne bar."

The pleasant to take and harmless One
Minute Cough Cure gives Immediate re
lief In all cases of Cough, Croup and La-
Gripple because it does not pass Im
mediately Into tho stomach, but takes
effect right at the seat of tho trouble.
It draws out the inflammation, heals
and soothes and cures permanently by
enabling the lungs to contribute pure
life-giving and life-sustaining oxygen to
the blood .and tissues, drover's City

Charles Uildea, one of the miners
blacklisted after the strike by the Le

signed to work In this district. Ex-

plied for a similar position, failed to
secure the job.

Do You Enjoy
What You Eat ?
You can cat whatever and whenever you
like if you take Kodol. By the use of this
remedy disordered digestion and diseased
stomachs are so completely restored to
health, and the full performance of their
functions naturally, that such foods as would
tie one into a double-bow-knot are eaten
without even a "rumbling" and with a posi
tive pleasure and enjoyment. And what is
more these foods are assimilated and
transformed into the kind of nutriment that
is appropriated by the blood and tissues.
Kodol is the only digestant or combination
of digestants that will digest all classes of
food. In addition to this fact, it contains, in
assimilative form, the greatest known tonio
and reconstructive properties.
Kodol cures indigestion, dyspepsia and all
disorders arising therefrom.
Kodol Digests What You Eat
