THE NOMINATION
May Run as Independent for Mayor OF
New York as Result OF
The Recount
Eiqures

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.]
NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-Victory in
the contest for the republican mayor
atty nomination apparently having
been snatched away from Mayor
Mitchell by the recount, his supporters
made plans today for running him as
an independent.
AS the recount in Brooklyn pro-
crossed, William NJ Bennett, contest
ant for the nomination, was at one
time 459 votes ahead. Later this
lead was reduced to 439, in the first
gain made by Mitchell since the re-
count began.
On the face of the recount results
to date, Bennett obtained an order
from Justice Golf, restraining the
board Of elections from certifying
Mitchell to the secretary Of state as
the republican candidate.
Representatives of the district at
torney's office are keeping close watch
on the rehabilitation. District Attor-
ney Swami has subpoenaed number
OF election officials to be questioned
in connection with fraud charges.
Mayor Mitchell has not yet revealed
whether he will be an independent
candidate II the republican nomina-
ton is taken from him. The fubion
however, is being reorgan-
lied with managers.

The juice OF two fresh lemons
strained into bottle containing
three ounces of orchard white makes
whole quarter pint OF the most re-
markable lemon skin beautifier at
about the cost one must pay for a
small jar of the ordinary cold creams.
Care should be taken to strain the
lemon juice through a fine cloth so
no lemon pulp gets in, then this To-
ton will keep fresh for months. Ey-
cry woman knows that lemon juice is
used to bleach and remove such
blemishes as freckles, sallowness and
tan, and is the ideal skin softener,
smoothener and beautifier.
Just try it, Make up quarter
pint of this sweetly fragrant lemon
lotion and massage il daily into the
face, neck, arms and hands. 1t should
naturally help to whiten, soften,
freshen, and bring out the hidden
roses and beauty of any skin. II is
wonderful for rough, red hands.
Your druggist will sell three
ounces OF orchard white at little cost,
and any grocer will supply the lem
ons.

Manners.

Manners have been somewhat cynic- ally defined to be contrivance of wise men to keep fools at distance. Fash Ion is shrewd to detect those that do not belong to her train and seldom wastes her attention. Society is very swift in it's instincts, and if you do not belong to 1t resists and sneers at you or quietly drops you. The first wea- pon enrages the party attacked; the second Is still more effective, but Is not to be resisted, as the date of the trans action is not easily found. People grow up and grow old under this in- fiction and never suspect the truth, ascribing the solitude which acts on them very injuriously to any cause but the right one.-Emerson.

STATEMENT OF J. H. M'LEoD, LIVE STOCK SPECIALIST WITH
 EXTENSION DIVISION, U. OF A.
l. WARNING TO FARMERS
Plant Forage Crops, Raise Live Stock and Don't Be Carried Away With High Prloes-keep Horses To Re-
 place Worked Out Draft Stock.
Little Rock

"Stop selling your breeding stock if you are a patriotic, businesslike farmer, or the state will face serious meat shortage" says J. H. Mcleod, live stock specialist with the exten- sion division of the University of Ar kansas, who predicts that if the sell ing of breeding stock is not stopped certain counties and communities in the state are going to suffer for meat and lard this next year
 "This is not war scare to be pa- raded before our people, but it is an actual reality which deserves serious consideration" says MT. Mcleod. Right now there seems to be wide spread tendency throughout the state on the part of the farmers to sell off their breeding stock of all kinds, espe- cially hogs, and the food prepared ness committees who have been ap- pointed to take stock of the amount of food and food products on hand in their respective counties should look into the situation and discourage the practice at once. This tendency to sell off not only meat hogs but breed ing stock is undoubtedly due to tho high prices which buyers are able to offer on account Of the war. |
 Farmers who are not accustomed to raising hogs should certainly secure one brood SOW and endeavor to raise a good, strong litter of pigs in order to furnish the family with meat. He should not depend upon the corn crop for fattening his hogs. This last year there was good crop of acorns, but the acorn crop following is likely to be short for this very reason.
 ITO be safe on hog feeds (and safe ty is the only principle on which to work in this time of war; begin now to plant forage crops. s**
 Gust word of warning to planters and other farmers throughout the state who will have to buy draft horses in the next year or two. It may be we'll to say that as soon as the horses and mules in use on the farms in Arkansas are worn out and have to be replaced by others, our people will find a great shortage of this class of live stock.
 "The prices, which are already high because thousands of horses and mules have been shipped from the United States to Europe during the war and are still being shipped in large numbers, and will be as high or higher than they are now with little possibility of there being little change in the market conditions for long time to come. The only way the Ar kansas farmer can play safe is to keep enough horses to replace his wornout draft stock and farmers who have ami mals that have to be mated should cer- tainly take advantage of April and May as breeding season. Remember, excessive prices paid for draft stock certainly cut down the profits that can be made from any farm"

HAVEN OF MAIMEEss
Palace of Bourbon Kings o'
 Naples Is Put to Use.
There MutiIated Soldiers of Italy Arc Housed and Taught Some Means
 of Self-Support.

The war has turned the palace of the Bourbon kings of Naples into 8 home for mutilated soldiers. Around the exQuisit, marble table where the guests of the "Roi Soleil" of Naples dined in the garden on hot summer nights-the ladies in powdered head dress and panier skirts, the men with lace at their sleeves and embroidered cOats-today are gathered the pitiRble fragments of humanity that war has left in It's wake. There are neither candles nor massive silver. neither sweetmeats nor rare wines. The Ital- tan government allows 70 cents per day for their lodging and mainten- ance, and food is high in Naples.
 The marble table on warm days in the gardens Is the recreation center of the mutilated, in their worn and faded uniforms. Before each is an oblong cardboard placard, some of whose spaces are numbered. One of the men Che must be one of those who have do the trick) shakes basket-bottle and turns out a numbered counter. In the sing-song Neapolitan dialect, he cries the number. The one whose placard bears it, covers the space with bit of glass. Whoever covers all his spaces first wins cent from each of the others.
 Those who have no hands at all have grown wondrously skillful at flip ping their bits of glass onto the placard by means of bent pin stuck fn the empty sleeve.
 This Is recreation. There are also hours of work. Once sumptuous chambers of the royal palace have been turned into schoolrooms, in the month that the hospital has been rum ming. In one, those who wish are taught tailoring, in another shoemak- ing-the legless naturally, for one must have two hands to make shoes and clothes. Those who have lost an arm are taught telegraphy or type writing. But many of the latter must begin farther back than that, and learn to read and write first. For reading and writing in southern Italy are not common accomplishments, so there is schoolroom-a primary schoolroom, where the alphabet and multiplication table figures on the blackboard in front of these grown children who have known only to give an arm or a leg to their country. And an arm or a leg to these simple peas ants is livelihood-their own and their families.
 Which is why some do not study. They are suspicious. Mutilated, they are entitled to a government pen- sion, and they are afraid that when they have learned new trade by which they can live, the government will say: You no longer need help make your own living" So they sit all day in the sunlit, royal garden, with it's faience f1Owerpots marked with fieur de lys, and watch the chang ing lights on the bay of Naples, and think of what life used to hold for them before the war came to change 1t utterly.
