This balance of 1923 so is about the
amount that would be left from the rev.
enues of 1900, payable in 1900, when the
expenses of the seven months school
torn just closed are all paid.
Only three months salaries have yet
been paid for the term beginning Oct.
30, 1699-the third months salaries lav-
ing been paid about two weeksago, and
the amount thereof not being therefore
set down in the bo0k-bat the clerk of
the Police Jury informs as thar he has
turned Owe to tile T~reasurert the follow
ing sums: On April 8. $4,000 of the 1900
appropriation of the Police Jury. and on
May 10, $500 OF the 1890 appropriations,
the parish still owing us $500 on that
appropriation. The Treasurer informs
MS that he received last week a check
for owe $500 Of the State funds, being
for the first quarter of 1900. These
sums are more than sufficient 10 pay
another months salaries ; and as the
Police jury will meet in q few days, we
have hopes that it will promptly pro-
vide for the payment of the last three
months of the term just closed. I.
We have carefully compared the
vouchers given MS with the charges in
the book and find same correct. We
think, however, that future examina-
ti0ns should be made much more FREE
quentlys and that reports showing our
financial condition should be placed
before the Board at least eemi-annnatly.

Question Answered.

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the civil
lize1 world. Your mothers and grand
mothers never thought Of using any
thing else for Indigestion or Bilious
ness. Doctors we're scarce, and they
seldom heard of Appendicitis, Nervous
Prostration or Heart Failure, etc. They
used August Flower to clean out the
system and stop fermentation of midi
gested food, regulate the action of the
liver, stimulate the nervous and organ

they took when feeling dull and bad

The Boxers Side.

The proper policy for this country to
pursue toward China is to, first and
foremost, call every missionary home.
or notify him that he must remain at
his own proper peril, as the government
will not incur the risk of war by pro-
tecting him in the unlawful act of sub
verting the religion, of q people who
have been following it for thousands of
years /; and il it has proved less assuring
OF tie SOULS salvation than that which
we professsno II has ever yet returned
to earth to certify to the fact. These
missionaries have been the source of
more trouble with Turkey and China
than all other causes combined. So far
as material results is concerned: Me-
kinley's fad that trade follows the flag
10 n fraud and delusion, and no good is
likely to result to this country from it's
assisting in the disi1emberment of the
Chinese Empire and it's participation in
the robbery that will follow. As we
have often said before, the mission Of
these United States should be to feed
the hungry and clothe the naked of
other countries rather than to shoot So
called religion into them with Gatling
guns or endeavor to force trade from
them by % similar process. 81
Quite aprOpOs to this subject, Il few
days since some II missionaries
were whipped and driven out of one of
the States-which one we do not recall.
That was right enough. Now, the
Christian people of this country have
no greater de~testation of Mormonism
than the people of China have of the
Christian religion. The Boxers are no
doubt a rutfianly set, and should be
suppressed on general principles. New
ertheless it cannot be denied but, with
the lights before them, they are justi-
fed in their animosity toward foreign
ers and especially toward missionaries,
many Of whom are devoid Of that gem
~tleness and meekness Of Spirit which
chacteEized the Master and are arro-
giant in their intercourse with the ma
tives.
So, there would seem to be a Boxer
side to this vexed question. They have
come in contact with afew missionaries.

State, $4412.n was foP interest on the
free school fund, the payments being
made us follows: Feb. Uses, S1426.19
$149S W-somewhat irregular and, it
though increasing in amount each year.
As to other sums received from the
State, while the per capita payment for
the 4th quarter of 1898 ($6752.40) was
received Jan. IL, 1899, the 4th quarter for
1899 ($7138.3 6) was not received until
Feb. 10, 1900. Tho failure OF tho State
authorities to make prompt r%emittances
has cost the Board u considerable sum
ia interest charges. since it was borrow
ing money to pay current expenses.
The amounts set down as interest paid
to the st. Landry State Bank, from
blank date in 1898 to blank date in
1899, embracing 81 items, aggregate
$972.93.
Other items OF new or extraordinary
expenditure are $607.75 for the numer
ration of school children in 1899, by
virtue OF an act of the Legislature
adopted in 1898. and 5000 for salary
of superintendent in 1899, against $500.
previously. No enumeration Of school
children will be made this year, MOI un-
til 1908. Less than 500 per year has
beenlpaid out for salaries of members
of the Board, who each will receive
Sill annually. About $3.50 has been
paid out for publishing minutes, etc.
We suggest that in the future all such
claims should be approved by the Board
before being paid.
The Treasurer's commissions for the
period embraced in this report-about
81 years-at 81 per cent-amount to

When a preparation has an advertised
reputation that is worldwide, it means
that preparation is meritorious II you
so into store to buy an article that
has achieved universal popularity like
CASCARETS CANDY CATHARTIC
for example, you feel it has the in
dOrsement of the world. The Judgment
Of the people is infallible because it is
impersOnal. The retailer who wants to
sell you something else" in place of
the article you ask for. has an Ak to
grind. Don't it stand to reason? He's
trying to sell something that is not
what he represents 1t to be. Why? Be
cause he expects to derive an extra
profit out Of your credulity. Are you
easy? Don't you see through his 1ttle
game? The man who will try and sell
you a substitute for CASCARETS is a
fraud. Beware of him! He is trying
to steal the honestly earned benefits of
a reputation which another business
man has paid for, and il his conscience
will allow him to go SO far, he will go
farther. If he cheats his customer in
one way, he will in another and it is
not safe to do business with him. Be

Remember CASCARETS are never

A Mine OF FossiIa

The sandstone quarry at Turner's
Falls. on the Connecticut River, in
Massachusetts, is 4 veritable mine Of
fossils. 1t was originally brought into
fame through the bird tracks imprint
ed in its stone. One slab. recently ex-
cavated. has tracks on it of an enor-
nous bird, which must have been some
twenty-five or thirty feet high. The
tracks are five feet apart, and measure
fifteen inches in length. The delicate
tracery Of insect feet, rain pits and
wave ripples also invests the slabs
with geological as well as ornamental
interest. The whole region is believed
to have been once covered by the sea;
and the marks seen among the stone
are literal footprints on the sands Of
time.
