welcome anything that saves the wear

and boots three or four coats of good
copal varnish and they will never need
residing The more coats of varnish
given the longer the soles last-every
coat being allowed to dry thoroughly
and harden in its turn before another
coat is applied. Varnish the heel also.
This will cut down the shoe bill.

ting dishes away, you carry them TO
the china closet in a tray, it ac-
commodities so many more dishes than
one can carry in the hands tray
should be used also in removing them

have TO be taken that it is worthy Of
being mentioned.
Spots of wagon grease may be re-
moved from cotton fabrics by mois-
tening slightly a piece of common

Something to Think About.

In concluding an account of
the recent Veterans banquet in
Baton Rouge, The People says:
"T'is true that we are living i'm
an age when it is imagined by too
many that there is naught to live
for but put the shoulder to the
wheel of material progress. but
history teaches us the lesson that
the wonders of the world, which
were the handiwork of man, and
the wonderful cities of antiquity,
have fallen into decay and have
left no object lessons that are of
profit or usefulness in any sense
to the generations of our time.
History leaves us for our imitation,
and instruction and the elevation
of the human character, only those
deeds of self sacrifice and those
achievements where men died for
men and to transmit examples of
those virtues which ennoble man
kind, and lift it above the brute.
To 10 well cur part toward our
country, civilization aud those
who are To follow Us, we must
contribute ether examples than
grand constructions and piles of
brick, stone and mortar, tor have
they left US much else than ruins
and warned us that in their prime
they are objects of transitory util-
ity and enjoyment. Hence, that
We should cling more to the exam
Piles of higher virtues os our an
cestors aud seek to transmit them
to prosterity.
Our Cipital City and parish is
rich in glorious examples and her
people should design some organ

every year, commemorate them
for the elevation of the character
