doing plain sewing and keeping a
home somewhere always for the boy.
Finally. however. she realized that
her only training had been domestic,
and she put the boy in an Episco-

ton of housekeeper to the Arm
strongs. There she found Lucien's
father. this time under his own name.
1t was Arnold Armstrong.

mind. She told him of the boy. and
threatened exposure II he did not pro-
vide for him. Indeed. for a time. he
did SO. Then he realized that Lucien
was the ruling passion in this lonely
womans life. He found out where
the Child was hidden. and threatened
to take him away. Anne was frantic.
The positions became reversed.
Where Arnold had given money for
Lucien's support. as the years went
on he forced money from Anne Wat
son instead until she was always pen
niless. The lower Arnold sank in the
scale. the heavier his demands be-
came. With the rupture between him
and his family things were worse.
Anne took the child from the home
and hid him In n farmhouse near
Casanova. on the Claysburg road.
There she went sometimes to see the
boy. and there he had taken fever.
The people were Germans. and he
called the farmers wife grossmutter.

That had been on Saturday. That
night Louise arrived unexpectedly.

fond of Louise-she reminded her of

trouble was. but Louise had been in
a state OF terrible excitement Mrs.
Watson tried to hide from Arnold, but
he was ugly. He left the lodge and

BABY's SKIN TORTURE

when our baby was seven weeks
old he broke out with what we
thought was heat, but which gradually
grew worse. We called In a doctor.
He said. it was eczema and from that
time we doctored six months with
three Of the best doctors In Atchison
but he only got worse. His face. head
and hands were a solid sore. There
was no end to the suffering for him.
We had to tie his little hands to
keep him from scratching. He never
knew what It was to sleep well from
the time he took the disease until he
was cured. He kept us awake all
hours of the night and his health
wasn't what you would call good. We
tried everything but the right thing.
Finally got a set Of the Cuticura
Remedies and am pleased to say
we did not use all OF them until he
was cured. We have waited year
and q half to see II 1t would return
but 1t never has and to-day his skin
is clear and fair as It possibly could
be. I hope Cuhcura may save some
one else's little ones suffering and
also their pocket-books. John Leason.

Why Cat Falls on its Feet.

A scientist has constructed an inge- nious model to show why cat in fall Ing invariably alights on it's feet This model roughly speaking consists of a cardboard cylinder wherein are stuck four rods to serve for legs. together with tail devised on similar princi- pies. The object of the experiment is to show that feline's peculiar fac ulty depends on the rotation of its tail with sufficient vigor
 This faculty is specially developed by climbing and leaping animals, such as members of the cat tribe, monkeys, squirrels, rats and most lemurs. As already stated, the tail plays an im- portant part in the turning process. According to the investigator all tree inhabiting monkeys have long tails. and there Is not the slightest doubt that these tails are of great aid to all climbers in enabling them to turn An the air The tail also serves as a balancer. as evidenced in the case of a squirrel. which may be seen walking along a tightly stretched wire or string swinging its tall from side to side, much after the manner of a tight rope walker balancing himself with a pole.

ELECTION RESULTS
 KNOWN AT LAST
ALL COUNTIES HAVE AT LAST MADE THEIR REPORTS TO
 SECRETARY LUDWIG.
Amendment No. 10 Carried by 13,000 Majority-No. ii Lost by
 5000 Votes.

Little Rock.-All counties of the Secretary Of state O. c. Ludwig on the vote cast for all state, district, county, township and city officers in the last general election, though three counties, Calhoun. Montgomery and Onion, have neglected to send in the total vote cast in these coun. sies, thus holding up for the present the actual majority of Amendment No. 10 or the number by which No. II has been defeated
 According to the returns filed, J. W. Crockett, candidate for state treasurer, led the ticket with 107,307 votes, with Attorney General Nor wood second with 106, ,933, and State Superintendent of Public Instruction George B. Cook third, with 106,932. The others received the following vote:
 Earle w. Hodges, secretary of state, JOG, ,593; Fred H. Phillips, commis- sioner of mines, manufactures and agriculture 106, ,573; Reuben c. Dye, state land Commissioner, 105,626, and John R. lobe, los. .192.
 The gubernatorial candidates re- ceived the following vote:
 George w. Donaghey, Democrat, 101 ,G46; Andrew I. Roland, Republi- can. 39,570; Dan Hogan, Socialist, 9,196.
 The total number of votes cast in the 72 counties reported was 154.SS2, and the three outstanding counties cast 4130 votes for the three candi- dates for governor. This would make total of 158,012, but there were sev- eral hundred in each county not vot- ing for the candidates, So it is safe to say the total, when the final re- suits are received, will be at least 160.000.
 Amendment No. 10 received 92,391 votes and 38,655 were actually cast against it. On the basis of a total vote of 160000, which would require the amendment to receive S0,0O0 to carry, Amendment Nc. 10 was adopt ed by a majority of about 13,000 votes.
 Amendment No. II received 73,7l1 votes and 45,697 were cast against it. it thus lacking a majority of about s 1000 votes.
 William F. Kirby, candidate for associate justice of the supreme court without opposition, received | l38, ,969 votes.

MUCH MONEY IN APPLE BUSINESS
More Than a Million Dollars Brought to Fayetteville Section by Them.

yille-"The Home of the Big Red Apple" the name often ap- piled to Arkansas, derives it's origin from this section of the state, where the apple crop brings in annually more than $1,O00000, which comes from the green apple, dried apple canning, cider and vinegar industries.
 The dried apple industry is the biggest of the apple business, bring ing in about $500000 annually to Northwest Arkansas,
 Expert apple men of this city pre- dict that this years crop will not be over 20 per cent, on account of the late frost last spring after the trees lad budded and bloomed The av- etage output from this section of the state is about 1000 cars, chiefly of the varieties Ben Davis, Winesap, Mammoth Black Twig and others.
 The canning industry here is grow ing to be an important factor in this industry. All of the towns of the apple district have large canning factories. which are kept busy late after the apple season. and in addi- tion to this is fast growing the cider and vinegar industry.
