they strung along the path it looked

great stone above dropped with a

Gretchen threw herself down on the
ground and wept, but at last she arose
and crept slowly along the stone

went to bed, except for the weeping of

Finds Father Lost
 Fifty-Five Years

Decatur, H., Oct 17.-One pret- ty day in April, 1861, Archibald G. Bottoms put on a uniform of blue, kissed his wife and baby daughter good4by, shouldered his gun and marched away to fight for Abe Lincoln and the Union. F'ifty-five years later the daughter found him, .91 years old, in Bowling Green, Mo.
 The daughter is Mrs. M. H, Rob erts of Decatur, III. She was 2 years old when her father marched away to war.
 During the Civil war, while my father was at the front" said Mrs. Roberts, "my mother died. I was placed with another family. We were living at Rowling Green, and afterward the family with which had been placed moved to Illinois.
 "When my father returned from the war he got no welcome. His wife was in her grave and l was gone. He spent months and months trying to locate me.
 '"The family never told me of my origin until many years after and II did not discover what town I had come from. Not long ago 1 asked U. c. Walsh, the Decatur G. A. R. man, to help me find my father. He wrote to Washington and sent in my fathers name. His address was given without any difficulty and my husband and l made hur- ried trip to Bowling Green.
 Needless to say, I could not recognize him as my father, but he said he recognized me. It was certainly a joyous reunion"

Seventeen Cents
 For Lint Cotton

(From Tuesdays Daily Press)
 The highest price ever paid for ordinary lint cotton in Paragould, with the exception of high grade staple, was reached today when a bale brought seventeen cents. The top price paid today in the seed was $6.45 a hundred. The receipts today were not heavy, probably less than one hundred bales having been received by local buyers. The mar ket continued to show 7 strength throughout the day and every indi- cation pointed to even better prices in the future. The enormous con- sumption by the mills in this coun- try, the shipments to foreign coun- tries and the shortage in the yield are given as the three prime causes for the record breaking prices.
 The one great trouble with much of the cotton produced in this sec tion, according to local cotton buy CTS, is the undesirable grade of the staple. Hundreds of farmers have been duped into planting what Is known as "half-and-half' seed that produces a big yield of lint, but with such a short staple that the

City Purchases
 Auto Fire Truck
(From Tuesdays Daily Press)

(From Tuesdays Daily Press)
 At the meeting of the city coun- cil last night a contract was made with the American-LaFrance Fire
 Engine Co. of Dallas, Texas, for
 the purchase of a modern 65 horse
 power auto fire truck, equipped
 with a 4O-gallon chemical tank,
 hooks, ladders, hose bed and all
 necessary apparatus for fighting
 fire. The purchase price of the
 truck is $4,50O to be paid in five annual installments, the first to be
 due on January 1, 1918. The de
 ferred payments draw six per cent interest, which makes the total purchase price, S5,S70. The com pany is under contract to deliver the truck here within ninety days. It is stated this truck will go any where a team of horses can go with the fire wagon, that it will make better time, and that the chemical extinguisher will enable the fire men to more SucCeSSlu uliY 'oiip"' eonflagrations. In fact, it is esti- --,-44ad that tha value of the -nrnp=4 erty saved in one year by having this mordern equipment will more than pay the total purchase price. It is also stated the insurance rates in Paragould will be reduced after the new truck is installed. The team of horses and wagon now
