n Farming to Mothers.

Too much care cannot be used with
small children during the hot weather of
the summer months to guard against
bowel troubles. As rule it is only nee
essary to give the child dose of castor
oil to correct any disorder of the bowels.
Do not use any substitute, but give the
old-fashioned castor OIL and see that it is
fresh, as rancid oil nauseates and has a
tendency to grippe. If this does not check
the bowels give Chamberlain Collie, Chol
era and Diarrhoea Remedy and then
dose of castor oil. and the disease may be
checked in its incipiency and all danger
avoided. The castor oil and this remedy
should be procured at once and kept ready
for instant use as soon as the first indica-
ton of any bowel trouble appears. This
is the most successful treatment known
and may be relied upon with implicit con-
fidence even in cases Of Cholera infantum.

A WORD TO THE GIRLS AND
THINKING WOMEN OF
NEW IBERIA.
APPEAL TO TRUE WOMANHOOD.

The good book says there is time
for everything. A time to sing, a
time to dance, a time to be merry, and
time to be sad, or words to that eff
feet When all around us within a
few miles, SO many people are stepped
in sorrow and almost craZed with anx-
iety, when the noble Arch Bishop
Chappelle, following the foot steps Of
his master and ours, has given his life
for his fellow men Ought we not to
pause in our pursuit of frivolity and
think awhile? Would the grand wo-
manhood of the Confederacy or of cur
earlier revolution spend their time in
the midst of the battle for life, shut
fling cards and deciding the all impor-
tant question, what is trumps ?'' It
will require the entire cooperation
of all the people to keep the real yell
low peril from our doors, especially
must the house keepers to whom is en-
trusted largely the sanitary condition
of the home, be eternally vigilant.
There is not the slightest need of
our having the fever in our town.
Since 1867 there has not been a case,
although our neighbor Franklin had
the entire town down with a very
mild form few years ago. Our
officers are doing their best. neither
one of them would be good subjects
should the Dago danger creep in
And what would it profit a man if he
gained the whole world and lost his
life. So you see there is no danger
from that source, putting it in its
lowest plane. If the present merry
clubs, so pleasant at other times could
be turned into sanitary classes, asking
our good doctors or any of our scien
tific men to deliver short talks upon
putting our homes and gardens in con-
dition to turn Jack away for very
shame. When the danger is passed
we would be wiser and happier, and
have far greater sense of the real
dignity of life.

Health authorities, Drs. Sanders and

have existed it was at once destroyed
by the case at Lafayette, which has
made our quarantine more rigid and
firm than ever Our people are de.

to prevent the first case, not to stamp

or armed with an oil can, a shovel
full of sulphur or bucket of lime or
other disinfectants. If we get a case
of fever it will have to drop from the
skies, for in no other way can it crowd
in.
The case at Lafayette was confirm
ed last Wednesday by DR.. Guiteras,
United States Marine Hospital staff.

are doing all in their power to pre-
vent it's spread, all the precautions
being taken. The case at Rayne
