they were rot aware that six other
courses were to felleW.
Bur soon it was announced that

they were charmingly served to

formed the third course. After this
Miss stevens, assisted by Mrs. Rem
inert. served Waldorf salad and crack
ers in her room. Then the party were
invited down to the parlors on the
no =
served by Miss Davis. This consisted
of pineapple sherbet and fancy crack
ers. As the party entered Miss
Blackwoods room on the second floor
the aroma III coffee from two steaminS
pereolators was decidedly noticeabln.
Mrs Smith assisted Miss Blackwood
in mourning coffee, with which assorted
cakes were served. Last of all, the
party was asked to Miss Williams
room. where delicious CONNECTIONS were
enjoyed.

Ignorance Costly Extravasance.
Those who complain about the cost
of education are reminded that ig-
norance is the most expensive thing
in the world If we could collect in
one heap the money that ignorance
has cost Louisiana during the past
fifty years, we could pay the state
debt, build stone-paved roads around
every quarter section Of land, put
a thoroughly equipped agricultural
school in every rural neighborhood,
drive malaria, typhoid fever, tuber-
culosis and cattle ticks out of Lou
isiana within a twelvemonth, and
into the pocket of the head of every
family in the state we could put a
years wages in advance. Do you
think the statement overdraWn
Then think of the distance that ig-
norance has placed between the
street sweeper and John D. Rockefel-
Ter, or between the twenty ty-bushels-to-
the-acre farmer and Thos A. Edison.
OF all the willful, indefensible ex-
travagances in which men indulge
the most tragieally expensive is ig-

Another Phase of the Good Roads
Subject,

.'For better roads is the theme
we find discussed by the papers all
over the state, and it is indeed a
subject worth the attention Of all
the people. No community can lay
claim to prosperity if it's roads are
bad. No people can boast. of any
progress if the public highways are
not maintained in a proper manner.
And if we come to think over the
subject in a calm and dispassionate
manner, we must admit to a great
percentage of cruelty if we force our
animals to half kill themselves IN
order to pull our vehicles through
mud and water. These poor beasts
of burden are indeed to be pitied
when seen struggling under lash
and whip to extrieate themselves
from the mire.-Avoyelles Enterprise.
