CONTRIBUTED TO POLLY OF
THE CIRCUS"
By Frederic Hamilton, the ldaho
Statesman.

Here is a parable of life, my
lords and ladies; an interpreted
ton of essential religion. Sweet
as a bell-fower apple, wholesome
as the old fashioned hickory nut,
this is the sort Of thing people
really like. Why? Why because
it cets folks where they live; 1t
takes them easily and naturally,
it smacks of simplicity and I'M
spoiled unsophistication.
That is, some Of it does. But
even the old deac on, with old
time mad on, and which III HIM
was righteous Indignation, as al
WAYS becomes an office bearer OF
the church. the church, was more
TO be pitied by discriminating
folks than execrated. For, SER
iorslv. this thing comes perously
near being written on the sand
and spoken into the ar; Tor pc
it known, my lords and grande
danes, that the type of religion
explicated by the good deacon,
so lighteously indignant, is passe,
defunct and has been for quite
a long, long time. Nothing do
ing. You couldn't get church
people, not even deacOns, to act
as did the church folk and the
deacon in Douglas church.
| think the essential idea one
gets from the fair thing enacting
Polly is her daintiness, for one
thing; then, her sincerity for
another thing, and her all-rOund
lovableness of appeal in the all
of her. The Douglas man was
fine, fine, fine; and so was big,
simple jim. !. .res
This is about all there is to It.
1t is thing so rarely true, so
sweet and satisfying as to send
folks home to bed to dream OF
goodness and simplicity and so,
in faith, to rest them from the
myriad complexities Of life, the
absUrdities, the lies and the arti-
ficialties, the put-the-best-foot-
forward program of living.
Herein, it seems to me, is the
beauty and strength of Polly of
the Circus; not that it (almost)
sets up the religious man of strOw
to belabOr and to wallop, but
that it is simple and kindly and
good.

PARISH ROADS.

From time to time, we have
called attention to the good work
being done by the Police Jury
in road building. One OF the lat
est undertakings in that direc-
ton is the drainage and recon-
struction of the Petite Anse road
through Treville's pasture. I'm
der the direction of Jury, Mr..
VIM. Lourd has force at work
deepening and widening the canal
leading from that road to Coulee
Rhodere and in removing the
mud from the long standing prec-
ipices and replacing it with new
and solid earth. This particular
piece of road is one Of the most
travelled in the Parish and serves
as the only thoroughfare for an
immense section upon which New
iberia is in large measure depend
ant; and whenever it becomes
impossible, as has occurred dur
ing every rainy spell for years
past, the merchants of this City
have been the greatest sufferers.
Besides this undertaking, plans
ar being perfected for the Burke
Station and Wyche roads and
Mr.. Atkinson, the State Highway
Engineer, is expected daily to
make the final arrangements be-
fore advertising for bids for their
construction. We learn further
that several drainage districts
are in contemplation and that
the Parish officials are anxious
to join the property owners in
the digging Of canals which
would serve to drain the public
roads as well as the private prop
erty interested. There is no
doubt that our soil is such that
good roads can be made, but to
accomplish this, good and ade-
quate drainage must be provided
and it is wise on the part Of the
Police Jury to lend every assist
ance within the means of the Par
ish to make these drainage dis
tricts possible. As will be re-
membered, q recent sale of $40,-
10000 Of road bonds has pro-
vided funds which permit of
more extensive work than has
heretofore been possible, and ev-
cry man on the Jury has pledged
himself 10 utilize this fund to
the best advantage Of the travel )
ing public. These efforts are
most praiseworthy and must re- !,
suit to the betterment Of both !,
town and country so absolutely !
dependant the one upon the !,
other.

A TRIED AND PROVED GUAR
ANTEE.

Man Bought Bottle of Dodson s
Liver Tone, Then Took It Back
and Asked for His Money and
Got It. ~
A man recently tried out the
guarantee which John R. Taylor
& Bro. gives with every bottle
of Dodson's Liver Tone. He
bought a bottle and then went
back to the drug store and said
the medicine hadn't helped him.
This druggist just reached into
his cash register and took out
half dollar. the price Of the bottle
of Liver Tone, and handed it back
to the gentleman. But he didn It
take the money. He owned up
that he was just trying the guar
antee and, as matter Of fact,
he had found Dodson's Liver
Tone the best remedy for consti-
patton and biliousness he had ever
tried. "Why,' he said. "my
wife wouldn't be without a bot
tie in the house for anything. It's
the best thing in the world for
the whole family, and the medi-
cine that I prefer to take or to
give to my children for a lazy
liver"
John r. Taylor & Bro. sells
Dodson's Liver Tone and guar
antees it to start the liver with
out violence. It is taking the
place Of calomel everywhere. If
you bry'a bottle and don't find
this pleasant-tasting vegetable
liquid the best thing to start
lazy liver, he will hand you mon
ey back with a smile.

to reports brought here today;
MANY of them have been stripped
of their outer clothing by the We

Appeals for funds to equip nos
pital squads to 90 to the succof
of the wounded Huerta troopers
were made here today by local
federal sympathizers. The rebel
wounded, it was stated, are beng
brought to Juarez and provided
for.
Federal soldiers who have
reached this side of the border

there also is water. These strag-

attack on the rebel front today.
Villa, army, returning from its
battle at Mesa, began arriving IN
Juarez shortly before noon, the
men in good spirits and well sup
Piled with ammunition they had
captured from the federals.
Fifteen captured federal field
pieces and fifteen machine guns
were brought to Juarez when the
rebel army began coming in. A

nature of a triumphal parade, was
at once started and reviewed by
General Villa.
Four train loads Of federal
prisoners numbering more than
400. it was said, were brought to
Juarez at II o clock. 1t was stat

found among the captives were
executed on the field of battle.
It is claimed most Of the cars
used in transporting the prisoners
to Juarez were captured from the
federals. There were no volun-

prisoners. No executions took
place in Juarez this morning.
Seven hundred Federal prison
ers arrived early this morning on
a special train from TierrO Blan-

that they will lay more eggs than
certain other breeds under Just as
favorable conditions. But in nine
cases out of ten the great difference
is in the owner or keeper.
Breeds of different characters
tics and makeup require different
methods of treatment, and to secure
the best results should receive the
correct treatment.
For example, the active nervous
breeds can and should be fed more
corn and feeds of a fat producing
nature than the heavily inclined
breeds, so much inclined to take on
fat
You see how necessary it is for
the poultryman to study the nature
of his own flock that he may be able
to furnish the conditions best suit
ed to their nature for the produc-
ton of eggs.
While we may be able to pick up
many valuable pointers from our
neighbors who keep different

these great differences in the re-
quirements of different breeds we
must not presume that we can fol-
