When the leg 10 moved forward to

MARVELLOUS EXCELLENCE.

In addition to the usual ar iicial
limbs q large practice ia had In ex
tending a shortened or deformed leg
to agree with It's fellow and 80 well Is
this done that detection Ia impossible
when the wearer Is dressed.
A leg or On arm will last usually
from five to fifteen years. Mr. Marks
employe, to whom reference has al.
ready been made, states that he for
years was accustomed to skate and
that too after he took to wearing his
two artificial legs. The only difficulty
that he feels at all In their use Ia when
going up stairs.
The price of artificial legs Is from
500 to 1925, while arms are somewhat
'ess. For hands and feet the price Is
regulated by the trouble required to
make a fit. MIR. Marks contends that
hi, method of using rubber feet to
work on o stiff ankle Joints 10 the
best of all, as the rubber gives oil the
elasticity and spring required.
Mr. Frees, however, another maker
who has secured several patents for
his inventions, holds that his mode OF
uaipg a universal ankle joint with a
competition foot and the spring join,
is the beat of all Inventions yet brought
out, and 1t is undoubtedly most per
feet in appearance and action when In
actual use. He says these j1ints hav,
greater bearing surface; they are much
stronger and more reliable, and are
more life like In every particular.

LOUISIANA DEMOCRATS.
Quarrel Over the Platform--The Lottery as
Political Issue.

! BATON ROUGE, Dec. 2l.-In the Democratic
State convention, yesterday, the committee on
| resolutions submitted majority and minority re-
| ports. Among the resolutions of the minority is
| one declaring that the Louisiana Lottery Com
| pany is corrupting the morals of the people and
Is disturbing element in the politics of the
State, and favoring the adoption of a constitu-
tlonal amendment abOhshing and prohibiting
| lotteries in the State forever
| Mr.. Bothner offered substitute, which was
adopted, declaring hostility to the entire prn-
cipleIOf lottery dealings; "the constitution de-
clares gambling 20 be vice, yet encourages that
! vice in its worst form, not only melting to
breaches OF faith and embezzlement in efforts
to get rich on the turn Of a wheel,
but demoralizing society, corrupting
politics ard impeding legislation,
and we demand that the Legislature to be
chosen at the ensuing election shall enact the
legal measures necessary for their suppression"
The platform adopted refers to the deplorabe
CONDITION OF the State under reconstruction,
congratulates the people upon their present
prosperous condition under the progressive
policy of the Democratic administration, de-
clares that the public schools of the State de-
mand the fostering care of the government, and
| though much has been achieved for their pro-
motion great deal more must be done to rem
der the public schools efficient, so as to confer
| the benefits OF education equally upon the
children OF every race, and opposes monopolies
OF all kinds. After adoption of Mr.. BOthners
amendment, given above, Mr. Marston demanded
opportunity to offer other amendments. The
demand being refused, he said he would not ao-
cept such platform, and withdrew from the
hall in disgust. The majority report on plat
form, with Mr.. Bothner's amendment, was
adopted by the votes, mainly, OF the McEnery
faction-yeas, 236; nays, 97 blank, &C.
An acrimonious discussion preceded the adop-
ton of the platform. Mr.. Stone, of East Felici-
ana. attacked the majority report. He COM
mented severely upon certain acts Of the Demo
cratic administration known the land grab,
penitenlary frauds, fees paid lawyers employed
by the State, etc Colonel Breaux and Major
Burke replied to Mr. Stone. The former ex-
planned his connection with the land cases be-
fore the United States Supreme Court, and the
latter sought to vindicate the McEnery admins
tration against the charges. The convention add
journed sine die.
