Lost While After AppIes.

Little WaIdeck Shan is back at his

is fair to presume that he is happy.
Waldeck is nine years of age. Sunday

picking tour, not as a business propo-
sition, but as one in which he pro
posed to satisfy his personal longing
for indulgence in the fruit. Result:
A lost boy and a laundering for nam
