Tears Since His Birth.

laughs, which recently aroused interest
in the scientific world of England, now

reached fourteen years old and has
never he'd a ear. This strange lad is
Bernard Waites, OF Camberwell.
His mother states that she has never
seen his eyes moistened since he was
born, although he has had all the
childish ailments n troubles which
normally bring tears, Demands boy
companions long tried to make him
cry by all manner Of devices. They
tormented him, told him sad stories
and even stuck pins in him, but with
out avail.
He is q strong, well-knit boy, but
lisps like a young child, and still has
seven of his first teeth uncut. He only
began to tall when he reached his
twelfth year. His mother says he has
more than the normal boys share of
feeling, intelligence, and understand
Ing, but she believes a good burst Of

ness.

has been estimated that it contains
enough granite to pave a highway
seventy times around the world.

he has made a fortune selling granite
from the quarries on its far side. His
home in Druid Hills, in Atlanta, one
of the city's most magnificent resi-
dences, is constructed entirely out of
Stone mountain granite.
Mr.. Venable Is one of the strongest
supporters in the South of the me-
mortal and open-air theater, which is
being constructed at the base. Be- |

Deer Hunters Are
 Given Fair Warning

Conway. Ark, Dec. 2.-Deer hunters who meet with success in bringing down deer had better be careful in taking their quarry across county lines before the hides have been removed, according to a friend ly warning by R. N. McHaney, fed oral inspector in charge of tick eradication. Deer infested with the cattle tick can spread the conta- zion as rapidly as cattle, and their removal from one area to another constitutes, asgviolation of federal regulationsIeN
 MT. MoHaney a few days ago happcned across a hunter who had bagged big buck in Perry county
 nd had removed it to Faulkner, hide and all. The inspector picked off number of ticks and then the hunter to proceed after warning him against further acts of the same nature.

DEMONSTRATED
 NEED OF HARD
 SURFACED ROAD
Few Hours Rain Deprives Paragould of Many Thou
 sand Dollars in Mer-
 chandise Patronage.
CFrom Saturdays DaIly)

Every business institution in Para gould during this particular period
 following nights rain, may readily appreciate what great value a hard-surfaced road leading form the city through the East Bottoms would be to this community. Dur ing period when, normally, trading is going forward in a. spirit of full blast, business slacks up be- cause of the impossible condition .of the roads, particularly those roads leading eastward from the city. That's unfortunate. The condition should be remedied, and it may be, if the business element of the community would get together and devise plan to overcome one of the worst obstacles that has ever confronted the community - bad roads.
 A hard surfaced road leading through the East Bottoms pene- trating the fertile sections of tho St. Francis region and communities in Dunklin county, would mean an increased trade that would total into many hundred thousands of dollars in single season. The greatest trade region of this section lies within region that is very frequently shut off completely from Paragould, just because the condition of the roads leading therefrom are such the people cannot get here. The fault is our own. The right sort of . community spirit would bring about the construction of at least gravel road that would measure up to all the requirements, so far as inducing trade to come to Parasould is con- cerned.
 A good road penetrating that fer tile section would bring not less than a twenty-five per cent increase of business to Paragould. perhaps it would double the trade now com ing here, Naturally, Paragould is the best trading point in this sec- tion. The town possesses the stores. If the buyers could only get here. That's the trouble--buyers getting l here.
 If the business people of the com- munity would place a fair estimate upon the loss of business they are now experiencing by reason of the bad roads and contribute but a por- tion of that loss. based upon years estimate, the road could be built to any point desired. Once a good, demonstrating road is built, others would follow. Soon, veritable network of good roads would be 1 leading to and from Paragould and the town would pick up and go' with vim.
 little money contributed to building one or two sample roads'' out of Paragould into the east sec- tions would be the best investment Paragold business men could make.

the killing occurred, and the coro- ners jury asked for an autopsy to determine whether the shells compared with the charge that had killed Kruse. As the physicians probed into the brains of her hus- band in search of evidence, she sat by the bedside apparently unmoved. Following the discovery that the shots were of tse same size, she made a complete confession. The coroner's jury returned a verdict ac- cusing her of the killing, and she will be held without bail to await the action of the Grand Jury.

Kruse exhibited part of his herd at the last Arkan- sas State Fair and won premiums. They sold the products of their dairy in Stuttgart.

SKI OUT OF MONEY.
 SELLS SHOE POLISH
Barred From Ring After Win Over Carpentier,
 Quickly Spent Big Pot.
By BILL CURRAN. International News Service Staff Correspondent.


 Paris. Dec. Battling Siki is selling shoe polish. The murderer of Carpenter is broke. He got co., 900 francs for the sleeping pill he handed Georges, but the pace he set around Montmartre and the dozen fathers, brothers and buddies that handed their swindle sheets to the dark champ soon ate up his profit, and now that the Federation has black-balled the big Senegalese he's got to get out and hustle.
 'If Carpenter, who ain't no cham pion, can sell tin cans, well, l guess the light-heavyweight champion of the world can peddle shoe paste. ' says Ski.
 His manager isn't interested in the shoe paste corporation. Heller has hopes that in the near future the ban will be lifted and Siki re- gain possession of his titles. We asked if he was considering a match outside of France.
 "No,' replied Heller. "Siki is not going to fight until the French Federation says so. I've refused an offer from Boston for match with Kid Norfolk at club in that city. My only plan is to ask per mission to give exhibitions and in that way show the public that Ski has learned his lesson and will cause no more trouble if given back his titles.
 "All the French sporting papers are with me and claim the punish ment too severe. I'm sure the Fed eration will allow him to give exhi- bitions.'
 Heller is wrong. We went to see the president of the French Fedora tion and asked if he had any oB- jection to Heller's plan.
 "Siki is suspended for nine ths and will not appear before tho box ing public in any match, exhibition or official capacity" said the presi- dent. A
 The cnamplOnShlp or France will be decided in a boxing competition in which all corners will have the right to enter
 When NJ. Rousseau was asked what he thought of Siki selling shoe polish, he said
 That's fine. If the polish is as waterproof as Siki lie can sell me dozen boxes"
