MR. CHAPPUIS' BOOK.

We take pleasure in acknowl-
edging receipt Of the booklet en-
titled "The Development of Lou
isiana' 3 Resources" by Mr.. F.. l..
Chappuis of New Orleans 1t is
full of information on vital sub
iect and is indeed a revelation to
those not acquainted with the
vast resources and opportunities
of our beloved State, the land OF
sunshine of continuous vegetable
growth, the poor mans land,
where ordinary industry will pro-
duce something that can be drawn
from its soil every day in the
year. The land that is refuge
for the afflicted and the aged,
where the young man can rea-
sonably hope for a competence m
few years of industry and the
old can extend their years IN com
fort and pleasant reveries and de-
parting scarcely note the diffe-
renee between this and Heaven.
All this Mr.. Chappuis has shown
and much more. His book will
induce many to come to this mary
elous country where all but the
spirit of man is Divine.
