The Department or Edu-
cation Explains the
School Census.

Referring to the criticism of the
public press about the inequalities
and errors IN the enumeration of
educabIe children in the several
parishes upon which the apportion-
ment of the school funds of the
State IS made, the Educational De-
partment states that it reiterates
what has been repeatedly said on
this subject: The enumeration
was made under the authority of
act 1879 of 1898, and if defective,
it Is the fault of the assessors OF
the several parishes. This act
provides that an enumeration Of
educable children of the State
should be made, 10 be effective on
the lst day Of July, 1899, and
every four years thereafter. I'm
der the law, the present enumera-
ton will stand until July l, of the
present year.
The assessors are now at work on
the new enumeration to 60 into
operation al that time. When the
work ia done, should 1t appear that
inequalities and errors exist. they
must be pointed out before the
State Board, of Education, which
has full power to examine and cor.
rect before final adoption. After
adoption By the Board the emu
meratlon will hold good for tour
years from July l, 1903. There will
yet be one more apportlonment un
der the present enumeration, the
June apportionment.

TENDENCY OF the TIMES.

! The tendency OF medical science Ia to-
| ward preventive measures. The best
thought of the world is being given to
the subject. 1t is easier and better to
prevent than to cure. 1t has been fully
demonstrated that pneumonia, one Of
the most dangerous diseases that men
have to contend with, can be prevented
by the use of characteristics Cough Rene
dy. Pneumonia always results from q
cold or from an attack OF influenza (gripl
and 1t has boen observed that this rene
dy counteracts any tendency of these
diseases toward pneumonia. This has
been fully proven in many thousands of
cases in which this remedy has been
used during the great prevalence OF colds
and grip in recent years, and can be re-
lied upon with implicit confidence.
Pneumonia often results from slight
cold when no danger is unprecedented
until it is suddenly discovered that
there is fever and difficulty in breathing
and pains in the chest, then it is an
bounced that the patient has pneumonia.
Be on the safe side and take Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy as soon az the
cold is contracted. It always cures.
