keeps in stellar ranks, in diversified
roles. Both are to have new plays this

cos successes have outnumbered his
failures, which proves, in large meas
ure, that his ideas are not wholly

cynical audience
The passing of the stock company
is largely responsible for the inabil-
ity of American actors to play various
roles. In this country, an actor be-
comes known for a certain type"
which he is able to portray and the
public and managers will have him
in no other. In England the establish
nent of type" actors is not carried
out to the remarkable degree that it
is in America and hence the actor is
called upon to portray many different
characters Neither do they have the
exceptional long. runs so frequent IN
this country. Also the English are
not so fond of the star system as. we
are With this combination of cir
cumstances, it is small wonder that we
have so few good actors and so many
door ones.

and criticized producer, has done much
toward the tearing away of the star"

Debt Drags People Down
Train Children Not to Be spend
thrifts; Parents Should Not
Be ParsimOniOus.
Gle TEbeeIar VfIpnE
BY ella Wheeler wilcox :
MAN who had made a great fl

MAN who had made a great fl
~ nanciaI success, somewhat sud
\ denly. is doing much charitable
and helpful work for humanity, but he
is marring his own character and max
ing trouble for himself and others in
the future by one unfortunate habit
He never pays a debt until forced
to do so at the eleventh hour.
No doubt the habit was first formed
when he was struggling to make his
way; before fortune turned her Sm1l-
ing face upon him. But his very
struggles and needs early in life
should have made him more consistent
in his dealings with his Fellow men
after he obtained his fortune.
Debt is the ugliest monster on earth
outside Of crime.
Every parent should teach a child
that debt is a phase of shame.
Tell your boy or girl that it is far
more respectable to wear old garments
and to be unable to present smart
appearance than to go about in clothes
which are not paid for, or to indulge
in any pleasures or privileges which
have made debt a necessity
There are chilren born into the world
with a tendency to be borrowers and
even to be thieves. because their faith
ers were parsimonious and niggardly
with their mothers before their birth.
And the children received the mental
mark of their mothers unfortunate
state of mind.
On6 SuCn woman lOuSGu AOE certain
kinds Of food before the birth of her
child, and was told by her husband
that her lOngings were eXtravagant
and unreasonable.
But her child was born with mania
for taking things which did not be-
long to her; even when she could have
them by asking, or possessed money to
purchase them. she preferred to Steaf.
Men of that niggardly type often
force their wives and children into the
debt habit.
Children reared under such condi-
tons have no horror of debt. They
have been taught that it is the only way
to obtain what they desire. Every boy
or girl ought to be given small
weekly or monthly allowance, taught
how to spend it wisely. and made to
keep a strict account
With such teaching should go a con-
tinual kindly, persistent education on
the nobility of independence, and the
dishOnor Of debt
If children form such ideals before
they go out into the world. there is
small fear that they will ever form the
habit of debt Copyright,

it practically amounts to that, as the
parish now has in its keeping eight

District Attorney Holcomb has ad-
dressed letter to the two institutions
requesting that they make provision
to receive these patients, and has also
addressed letter to the police jury
calling its attention to the matter. 1t
costs the parish about 500 a month

LOUISIANA MINERAL REPORT
State Rich in Resources-Stands High
as Producing State.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington. - The United States
Geological Survey has issued a safe.
ront showing that Louisiana has
within the past few years come ior-
wand prominently as a mineral pro-
duCirg state.
In sulphur and rock salt the. states
stands first in the Union while its oil
production is a source of great wealth,
in sulphur and rock salt the state
nient is as follows:
During the last ten years Louisiana
has attained considerable prominence
as a mineral producing state. After
the sensational strike of oil at Beau
mCnt, Texas, in 1901, prospecting for
petroleum was actively carried on
East of Sabine river in Louisiana, re-
sulting in the discovery and develop
r.ent of several pools in the vicinity
of Jennings.
Since that time productive areas
have been developed in many parts of
the state and Louisiana now ranks
tion Of petroleum. The Caddo district,
opened in 1906, is the principal pro.
ducer at the present time and of great.
est promise for the future.
According to the United States
Geological Survey, the production OF
petroleum in Louisiana amounted to
6S41 ,395 barrels, valued at $3,574 ,069
in 1910, and to lO,720,4 ,42O barrels, vallr
ell at s5,66S,S14 in 1911. In one re-
srect Louisiana stands prominently
first among the states. This is N the
production of sulphur. In 1904, the
French process for the recovery of sui.
phur from beds lying under a heavy
cover Of quicksand was put into sue
cesful operation by the Union Sui
phur Company, at Sulphur City, about
II miles west of Lake Charles, IN Cal
casieu parish. Since that time ap-
proximately 100000 tons of refined
sulphur have been recovered. Prior
to this the only domestic source OF
sulphur in quantity in the United
STAGES, was iron pyrites. from which
sulphuric acid is made direct. Nearly
all the sulphur used was imported
from Sicily.
"In addition to petroleum and sui
ptur Louisiana is an important pro
ducer of rock salt, In which the state
also ranks first. In the total produc.
tion Of salt, Including that evaporated
from brine, Louisiana ranks sixth
among the states.
The value of all the minerals pro
duced in the state in 1911 was Sl2s
71O,S5S, an increase of $2,590,965 over
1910"
