Ask any doctor if there is a quicker
way TO catch cold than to get all steamed
up and then go into the cold air.
Some women folks get colds like that
nearly every washday.
They do their washing in the old boil
ing way with hot fire and steaming suds.
The Fels-Naptha way of washing is a
wonderful health-Sayer.
It takes away all danger of catching
cold.
The washing is done in cool or luke
warm water-no boiling or steaming, no
hot sudS.
It's much easier, too
You don't wear yourself out because
the Fels-Naptha does, all the work-no
hard rubbing.
There are other reasons why you
should use Fels-Naptha Soap.
1t doesn't take half as long as the old
way; saves fuel; much easier on the clothes
and makes them cleaner and sweeter.
But, if you value your health, that
alone is good reason for doing your wash
ing the Fels-Naptha way. In the Winter
or Summer.
Follow directions on the red and green
wrapper.

.ng zeal estate transfers and enabling
he owners to raise money on their
property as quickly as on stocks and
ronds. There was vtry little said on
The other side; but as there was a
small though thoroughly organized
opposition to the proposed law,
whereas these in whose interest it
was urged the general public, espe-
cially the owners of real estate, had
20 organization and took no part in
the struggle, the TOrrens bill was
defeated and laid aside for the time
being.
The Developments of the last threS
| some legislation on this line. The
money loaned in mortgages in Louis
lana amounts to between $35, 000, 900
and $4,000 600; and the mortgagOrs
and mortgages alike are entitled to
demand from the state such prOtec-
ton and such simplicity of method
as they deem necessary. 1t is not
proposed, and never was proposed,
to interfere with the present notarial
system, but simply to allow those who
prefer the registry system for real
estate to enjoy the same advantages
other states possess. The fact that
new lands are being opened up that
there has been latterly considerable
speculation in real estate, empha-
sizes the necessity for some simpler
and quicker method of selling it or
raising money on it.
AS we have said before, all the
arguments are in favor of the system
of voluntary registration; but they
were equally in its favor three years
ago, when the proposed measure was
defeated by the small but well-organ-
lied antagOnistic interests. Those
who want the Torrens system, those
who are interested in land and who
see the stimulus that a law of this
kind will give. inducing people to in
vest in real estate because they
raise money on it or realize on it
at once, whenever they need the
money, will do well to show some in
terest in the compaign and make
some fight against the opposition,
which will probably carry on the
same quiet but effective campaign
as they did before against any
change in our present slow and ex-
pensive methods of dealing in real
estate.
At the state homestead convention
in Shreveport, held some months ago,
Mr.. w. o. Hart of this city pointed
out how greatly these companies were
interested in the adoption of the Tor
rens system, and how much they
would be benefited by it's extension to
Louisiana. Perhaps the homestead
companies will join in the support of
a measure which, unless it has back
ers, is likely to fail before the vigor-
Gus opposition of those interested in
preventing a change in our methods
Of mortgaging or selling real estate.

Broad Is the Road,

The tramp who goes afoot and the
millionaire who rides in an automo-
bile are equally interested in the great
American problem of good roads. Mac.
adam makes walking hard for the
hobo, and when he comes to a stretch
of it he generally takes to the ad,
joining fields. Dirt roads and tour
ing cars are not suited to each other.
The great d%esideratum is a dustless
road, soft and elastic to the foot, but
hard and unyielding to the heavy We
hicle-in fact, a sort of paradox and
dream, and the man who makes it a
reality will be one of the greatest
benefactOrs of the world. The prob.
lem would perhaps be more easily
solved, and at less expense, if the
country roads in the United States
were no so wide. In the middle and
western states their average width is
&c 2-3 feet, two-thirds of it given over
to weeds which furnish a perpetual
supply of seeds to the adjoining farms.
A road of that width costs nearly
twice as much for building and main.
tenance as would a highway 80 feet
wide, upon which all the expense and
work could be concentrated. Ger
many, where the travel is vastly great
er than in this country, gets along
finely with highways averaging only
80 feet in width.

Dry Out Your Awnings.

"Your awnings" said the awning
man, would last longer and look bet
ter If you'd dry EN- out when they get
wet.
Some folks will leave their avn
ings down to soak and drip all
through a heavy rain. l never could
understand why people do that; of
course it doesn't do az awning any
more good than 1t would any other
fabric to soak it in that way and then
drip may fall on the awning from the
roof and flying 500 may lodge on it,
and so If you keep your awnings down
in the rain, the first thing you know
they are faded, discolored and dingy.
IF you want to preserve your avn
ings you want to haul them up when
1t rains, but If they get wet why then
when the air is right you want to
lower them and let them dry out, and
be sure they're dry when you furl
'em before you go away in the sum
mer."

it originated in Arkansas. Following
from the Monroe News-Star is a on
densed version of the tale:
IF you will watch the eastern sky
these nights you will see something
that you never saw before nor will
you ever see it again unless you reach
the ripe old age Of 500 years. We
refer to the Star of Bethlehem, which,
according to the scientists, appear
every 800 years. The star is a very

night about 10 or II o'clock as it rises
above the eastern horizon"
The Shreveport Journal vouchsafes
the additional information that the
rays of the star reflected in the water
make "a torch about four feet long
and that next month the star will be
