Sons Of the Empire Parish Usually Rake .
MaFk Wherever They Go

Have you ever noticed that st.
Landry boys usually make good''
wherever they go?
1t is a fact, a notable fact.
They are winners, when they enter
the race.
A marked example is John A.
Stage, who is now one Of the promi-
nent lawyers Of Chicago. johnny
Stage, as he is known here, is a st.
Lannry product in every sense of the
word He left home to go ont and
win-and he has won.
His picture appeared in a recent
issue Of the Chicago Examiner,
among a roster of Representative
Members Of the Bench and Bar
His biography, as given BY the Elk
aminer, is as follows:

La. In the fall of 1891 he was en-
ployed as a clerk il the tax Collect

ted in the political campaign which

Washington, D. G., to accept an APP
pointment in the United states Treas
ury, having passed the civil service
examination at New Orleans at the
head of a class of forty-fve applicants.
In 1899 Mr.. Stage was hired to do

troubled a great deal by sickness

He turned his attention at once to
their food and found that they were

He issued orders to cut down the

He also boiled Quaker Scotch Oats
