EDITOR JOURNAL: 49,
I send you statement of public
schools in st. Landry during the
half year just ended. Great credit
is due to the Parish School Direct
ors, Messrs. Anderson, Mayos Tat
man, Bell and McNiel, for the in
dustfy and public spirit they have
shown. 1 desire here to record my
indebtedness to them for assistance
rendered to me in my duties as
Division Superintendent.
Most of the schools are now sus-
pended in consequence of the hot
weather, for repairs, and because
the teachers fund is exhausted. On
the first Monday in September next,
with a replenished treasury, and
with renewed energy on the part of
teachers and pupils, schools will be
re-opened. Some changes in loea-
ton and in teachers are contem-
plated. Ample accommodations and
able teachers are to be provided for
both white and colored children.
Schools for the latter are proposed
at Prairie Laurent, Grand COteau
and Waxia.
l shall always be glad to receive
any suggestions from citizens and
directors, concerning openings for
schools, situations for teachers, or
difficulties which may occur. The
people are urged to afford the
School Directors and teachers the
kindest cooperation: accord them
all honor for their work s sake; send
your children punctually to school,
and encourage in every way the
work of public education.
The law says every man. s child
shall have an education, and the
glory OF our country is it's free
school system. 1t will not be long
before public sentiment will rebuke
severely the man who neglects to
send his children to school.

Fun AND FANCY.
THE RAT TARRIER.

Theze dear little pets ov the dog
perswashun are MATHIS oy the lie ov
Crate Britain.
They are born there with CRATE
precision and purity ov karakter
hav a pedigree az klean az the
queens, and as free from spots az Q
MI tin dipper.
A rat tarrier who could ketch 81
rates a day, with a rust OH his ped.
igree, amt worth only half az mutch
in market az one with q pure set Of
ansestors,- who couldn't ketch only
43 rats.
1t iz hard work for a kussid phool
tew see this, but it takes edukashun
tew see theze things.
A man without eduskashun kan
stand out doors in O klear night
and count the moon, and he won't
see emmy thing but CRATE chunk
ov light sumthing bigger than a
kartwheel.
But you let an edukated man stan
out there by his side, and he kan
see turnpikes, and toll gates. and
neutrality-suspicious., and wimmin's
rites convenshuns, and municipal
rings, and koporasIiun thieving in
it.
Edukashun iz bully.
The rat tarrier liz not so mutch
dog, az personal matter, az the
Newfoundland IL, but he haz more
grit to the square inch.
just so the hornet haz got more
sting tew them than shanghi pull
let haz, and an angleworm haz more
grit in them than an hanakonda
haz. Natur bosses these jobs, and
natur never underlets a kontract.
There is one thing / alwas did like
natur for, she don't take the trouble
tew explain. She don't object tew
persons asking questions, and guess
ing at things, but if emmy boldly
asks her viii a frog kan jump further
at one. highst than a tud kan, she
tells the phellow (if she tells him
ennything) never tew bet on the
tud, unless he wants tew looze his
mummy.
l never hav had the happiness
yet to own rat tarlier even, in fakt
1 hav allus been poor, and haven't
been beforehanded enuff yet tew
own a dog,
/ mean sum time tew hew a rat
tarrier, and then I suppoze, to enjoy
/ shall have tew git sum
rats. This IL the way with all the
luxurys ov life. one luxury makes
another one necessary. Thar IL one
thing certain, if I ever do own a
Eufoundland or a rat tarrier, they
hav got tew be thorobred. / must
kno all ov their relashuns, inklud-
ing their mother-in-law, and if thare
il a blot ON thur reputashun, as big
as fiji spek, the dog wont suite me.
I must hsy the pedigree all rite,
if the dog aint wuth q kuss.

POE r

Woman's untiring lot hath been
The song Of every land;
None will ON earth complete the theme.
So artless. yet SO grand.
Her lowly duties but proclaim
Her pure, her gentle mind.
Whilst man, more stern, perchance more
vain,
Too often proves unknd.
Where Is the warrior that hath borne
Defeat with smiling face?
smile through life has women worn
Is undeseryed disgrace.
The dross Of earth can never buy
Her truthful, loving heart.
Although tbs often doomed to die
Beneath some fatal dart.
The SlOw-wom lights the chcerless scene
That makes her hour so brief:
The faults of man will woman screen.
And doom herself to grief.
Then fear not. woman, unto thee
The peaceful dove will come:
Blessings denied thee here, are free
In thy celestial home.

Before the war, NJ. Paul Dupont, the
great Paris printer, carried on a busi-
ness OF 100000 francs a year. He
divided ten per cent. of the net profits
among his workmen, according to their
individual merit, and not in regular pro-
portion to their different salaries. This
house, says Mr.. Thurlow's recent report,
has followed this course for twenty
years, and claims the first place in the
application of one of the happiest and
most successful ideas Of modern times.
