Little devil (3)

I believe the answer is:

imp

'little devil' is the definition.
(an imp is a little demon)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for imp that I've seen before include "Emperor" , "Small devil or sprite" , "pickle" , "Young troublemaker" , "old-fashioned graft" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune, the Evening Standard, The Independent, the Universal, the King Feature Syndicate, The Sun, The Telegraph, the USA Today, the Penny Press, The Mirror, The New York Times and the LA Times.
