BABY's SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN

A Grateful Mother Writes this Letter.
Tells all about Her Troubles when
Baby Broke out with Scrofula Sores.
"At the age of two months, my baby
began to have sores break cut on his right
cheek. We used all the external APP
plications that we could think or hear of,
to no avail. The sores spread all over one
side of his face. We consulted a physi-
clan end tried his medicine, and in a week
the sore was gone. But to my surprise in
two weeks more another scrofulous look
ing sore appeared on haby's arm. 1t
grew worse and worse, and when he was
three months old, began giving him
Hoods Sarsapari!la. l also took Hoods
Sarsaparilla, and before the first bottle
was finished, the sorl S were well and have
never returned. He Is nov foar years old,
but he has never had ar sign of those
scrofulous sores since nc was cured by
Hoods Sarsapariila, for which feel very
grateful. My boy owes his good health
and smooth, fair skin to this great med
icine." MRS. S. S. WROTEN, Farming

DEwEY's GREAT VICTORY.
States.

States.
Commodore Dewey's victory at
Manila was absolutely overwhelm-
ing, and the dispatches which the
Navy Department received from
him yesterday caused the whole
country to shout the praise of the
gallant sailor whose achievement
is equal, and in the minds of a
great many people greather than
that of Nelson at Trafalgar.
Commodore Dewey states in his
official report that he destroyed
eleven of the Spanish vessels with
out his own squadron suffering
any injury, and only a few men
slightly wounded. He also de-
stroyed the Notifications protec-
ting the harbor. and is now in full
possession of Manila bay, and, as
he says, can take the city at any
time. This means of course that
he has not bombarded Manila and
will not do so because it is not me-
cessary as he can land marines
whenever he desires.
The Spanish loss in the engage.
ment is not known, but it is est.
mated to be not short of $50, while
there are $50 sick and wounded
within the lines of the American
squadron which are being cared
for as though they were friends
instead of enemies.
The first cablegram which Com
modore Dewey receives from
Washington will certainly CRAFTY
him, because in addition to the
thanks of the American people ex.
pressed through the President, il
will convey the intelligence thai
he has been appointed to the ranl
of acting admiral. He de
serves this and more because hi
was glorious victory and nobly
won.

There is no doubt about the fact
that the bloody shirt which was

for the purpose of getting votes
for the Republican party, has been
dumped ANONYMOUSLY on the

PERMITS TO BUILD.
Houma Courier.


There are some buildings in
Houma that certainly ought to be
condemned by the town authori-
ties as being both dangerous and
eye sores to the town. Another
plan in vogue in many progress
sive places like Houma, is that re-
lative to issuing permits to bull
ders. People here build pretty
much as they desire, and as there
are all sorts of individual notions
in regard to where and how bull
dings can be erected the conse-
quence has been very detrimental
both to the appearance and the
safety of the town. Some one
might say that it is nobody's bust
ness whether or not a person
elects to build in wood, or all out
of line with other buildings; but
such argument will not "wash. ="
The crank builders neighbor, ten
chances to one, has to pay money
out of his pocket as a result. in
the way of insurance, or have his
chances of being burnt down in
creased. The neighbor and all
others in the town are therefore
interested and have right to en-
ter a complaint if their interests
are jeopardized by the builder.

THE RIGHT OF MIGHT

TIE N1I1 VI MlCI1
War has been defined as murder
glori6ed. The scaffold replaced
by triumphal arch would per-
haps be more figurative. A condi-
ton of things qualified as extra
legal would be more exact. War
is the paradox of Jurisprudence.
1t sanctions that which it has for
hidden, honors that which is pun
ishes and rewards that which it
reproves. Its criterion is the re-
suit. There is no question of JUS
tice. There is a question merely
of victory and defeat. The Ro-
mans, who, whatever their faults
may have been, were not casuists,
summed it up in sentence-VG
rictis. War and humanity are
congential. They appeared on
earth together. In the Old Tes-
lament the most ancient chronicle
is a tale of murder. There two
brothers are face to face. Their
ideas conflict. One kills the other.
The brothers are succeeded by
families, the latter by clans. There
are tents and passions. There are
races, nations, empires. But al
ways the conflict of ideas, always
the battle which ensues. History
has the monotony of the Internal
regions. 1T is made up of groans.
The lesson which disengages from
it is the right of might. There
never has been any other. The
early warriors had the whirlwind
for ally. The moon was their SER
want. To aid them the sun stood
still. The terror of Sinai cleaned
from their breastplates. Men
could not see their faces and live.
They encroached and conquered.
On a rock-bound hill they foun-
ded a line of kings. Presently
Vengeance incarnate talked Assy-
rian. They were swept into chains
and remained there until it oc-
Cured to Cyrus to change the
Euphrates' course. With Alexan-
der, who chased kings hither and
thither, came more might. When
the Roman eagles bounced upon
their prey there was more. There
was always more. In history
there is little else. OF justice or
injustice never a word. Spain
knows it. 1t is might that made
her. But might is not eternal.
