Time for Needed Rest.


A physician, who makes q study Of
women's erves and their quality Of
endurance, asserts that a little intel
ligence on their part would help i'm
mensely in going through life. The
reason. he says, that women get ex
hausted after any endurance test Is
that they do not know how t. balance
work and rest. He lays down the
following rules, which are far better
than medicine: Sleep in proper pro-
portions comes first. 1t should be TAX
en- in immoderate doses when n has
just gone through a tedious time, or
expects to face one. The seven-hour
rule or custom should be utterly abol-
ished. There should not be one rule
for every one concerning sleep. Each.
individual should be her own Judge Of
how much is needed. II she wants
ten hours sleep. II she car get 1t, and
feels refreshed after it, she should
make every effort to have 1t. The day
laborer does not need as much sleep
as those who work in an ONCE; those
who work In a shop do not need as
much brain repair as those who write

THE INTERCOASTAL CANAL

The route of the IntercOastal
Canal AS at present determined
and which will be followed un
less some action by the people of
this section is taken. is not the
best that could be selected either
as giving a secure inland water
way or as benefitting the people
of south Louisiana. The course
of the canal is so near the gulf
that it will make it unsafe in bad
weather for vessels to navigate
II. and it should therefore be a
considerable distance north Of
the present proposed line. This
change in the course would re
suit in not alone making the
canal available at all times for
vessels. but would furnish a
much better. more direct, and
more advantageous route for all
This section.
The building of the canal, with
the improvement of the Vermilion
means a water route from Lafa-
yette and this part of the State
to New Orleans, and for this
reason is a most important mat.
ter to the people of this city: We
are exceedingly interested in
having the canal built through
this parish and as far north of
the present line contemplated as
possible, both because of making
the water route to New Orleans
more direct and because it will
furnish drainage for a section
that.badly needs it.
In another column we publish a
letter from DR.. A. J. Burkett, of
Milton. on the subject, and his
suGgestiOn of immediate action
in the matter in order to get the
subject before the next Congress-.
should be acted on by the bust
ness men of the town and a
movement started at once to get
data in readiness and to interest
Congressman Broussard and
ether Representatives and also
our Senator'S, so that the route of
the canal may be changed.

reason that the appearance of

You certainly do meet some queer

ton. About the funniest example of
rural Indifference l eve saw, though.
l struck this summe down in Maine.
He ran the only store in the place and
was the postmaster, too. Most of his
stock was covered with dust and fly
specks and he scarcely eve had any
thing you wanted. One day l asked
him for some of Blankem's Whatyou-
call, which you a buy on every
street corner in New York and practt-
cally everywhere else.
Don't keep it, he replied. without
moving from his chair.
Don't keep it?' l echoed, in some
surprise. Why. you'd have lots Of calls

That's just it, complained he. I

houla. This was done at a primary
! held last month by a vote of
nearly two to one. The ques.
ton Of division had been voted
on in January. when the anti
divisionists were successful but
by a slim majority. Afterwards.
the people of the two sections
of Catahoula came together in
mutual compromise, and, recog
nizing the unwisdom of keeping
two sections together that had
thoroughly different interests
and we're antagonistic in many
respects, agreed to allow the
western portion of the parish
to secede.
1t will be remembered that
the name of West Catahoula was
originally proposed for the new
parish, but this was wisely
abandoned. We have two many

ishes already IN Baton Rouge.

LaSalle, the first new parish
created in Louisiana in over a
quarter of a century, brings the
total up to sixty. It is not, how
ever. likely to remain at that
figure for long, as there is no
reason to doubt an early divi
sion of st. Landry and the crea-
ton of the new parish of Evan.

the last election the indications
point to the. division at an early
day Of Calcasieu into two or
