Captain Joseph Boisseau died at his home in
Shreveport last Saturday morning, aged II years.
Captain Boisseau was an old and prominent citizen
OF Shreveport, and well-known throughout LOUISE
ana He was man of noble purpose and kindly
disposition and always stood for that which is best
in the world. Such man leaves lasting impress
sion in the community where he resides and though
ne may pass to other fields the good he has accom-
plished will live and thrive as lasting monument
to his memory. The admiration and the esteem felt
for him by all who knew the integrity and honor
which marked Capt. Boisseau's character, compel
the universal sorrow which will follow his passing.

Sick
Headache

When your head aches, there
is a storm in the nervous sys-
TEN, centering in the brain.
This irritation produces pain
in the head, and the turbulent
nerve current sent to the stom-
ach causes nausea, vomiting.
This is sick headache, and
is dangerous, as frequent and
prolonged attacks weaken the
brain, resulting in loss of
memory, Inflammation, cpl
lepsy, fits, dizziness, etc.
Allay this stormy, irritated,
aching condition by taking
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills.
They stop the pain by sooth-
ing, strengthening and reliev-
ing the tension upon the nerves
NOT by paralyzing them, as
do most headache remedies.
DR.. Miles Anti-Pain Pills do
not contain opium, morphine,
choral, cocaine or similar drugs.
"SiclI headache is hereditary in my
family. MY father suffered a great
deal and for many years l have had
gnells that were so severe that | was
unable TO attend TO my business affairs
for day or so at time. During a
very severe attack of headache i took
pr. Niles Arti-Pain Pills end they
relieved me almost Immediately. Since
then | take than when | feel the spell
coming on and it stops it at oace:"

Pres. S. b. Eng. Co., South Bend, Ind.

the first package will benefit. II 1t

Corn is all hard, will commence

ed me to write you something for
the Journal about this country
some time ago and perhaps some Of
my friends would be glad to hear
from me as 1 spent several years of

nice climate, the winters not being

two or three years since they found
80 much gas and oil around here,
it is one of the richest countries you
can find anywhere. Wood and coal
are something of the past here.
Nearly every farmer is burning free
gas for all domestic purposes and
Is also getting nice income from
their farms besides. Most of the
farms are leased for $1.OO per acre

There is no Disgusting the fact
that the mail order business has
become great institution in the
land We all seem, like sheep, to
have gone astray. That short
sighted policy is being pursued by
business men as we'll as farmers ia
evidenced on every hand. The fact
is that the farmer needs the business
man just as badly as the business
man needs the farmer. The town
assuredly depends upon the coun-
try, but the country depends just as
vitality upon the town. Every in.
telligent farmer knows that thrifty
town near at hand enhances the
value of his tract of land 20 the eX-
tent of hundreds or even thousands
of dollars and that it's removal or
destruction would mean the loss of
lust so much to himself. Self-in-
terest certainly demands that he be
loyal to home institutions. 1t re-
mains then for business men to dis
cover why he is otherwise. There
appear to be several reasons. The
retail business, for one thing, is
succumbing to advertising. The
mail order houses are the most
| skillful, energetic, and relentless
| advertisers in the world. They
spend their thousands in this way
as freely as retail merchants spend
their shillings. There can be but one
result, and stream of gold flows
in consequence, from the country
to the large cities. When oul
merchants learn to buy direct from
the factory, thus saving whole
salers' and jobbers' profits, and to
invest more extensively in printer'e
ink, the present order of things will
be changed. We believe it can be
proved that mail order houses m AXE
a larger per cent of profit thar
retail merchants. Advertising anG
Incorporation are the magic words
that will restore our merchants t.
their rightful heritage.
