ASWEI,L SUCCESSFUL.

That Congressman j. b. Aswell,
of this district, is proving
staunch friend to the farmer, Is
plainly shown by the amendment
to the currency bill which he
was instrumental in gettln g
through at a caucas meeting Tues
day. The bill as it now stands,
leaves no doubt as to the advlsa-
bility of promissory notes given
with cotton, wheat or any other
agricultural staple for use as Sc
curity.
The adoption of the amend
rnent is the successful termlna-
ton of hot fight on the part OF
| Congressman Aswell IN the in
terest of the farmer, and the
agricultural interests not only OF
the Eighth Louisiana District, but
of the whole South and West
should extend to him a vote Of
thanks.-Leesville Leader.

RINGLING CIRCUS AT ALEX
ANDRIA.
Great Spectacle Of "Joan Of Arc"
Added to Their Show.

Ringing Brothers Circus and new
added 100000 spectacle of Joan OF
Arc" will exhibit in Alexandria, La,
on October 3rd, 1913. The spectacle
in itself is an attraction that should
bring thousands of visitors from the
surrounding country. 1t is beyond
question the greatest production OF
it's kind even seen in America.
The worlds most skillful scenic
artists, costumerS, property-makers,
chorus directors and stage managers
wore engaged to mount the produc-
ton. A stage bigger than hundred
ordinary theatres was built and made
Dol table so that it can be conveyed
from town to town and erected each
morning in the main tent. Thus the
circus proprletors have made it posi-
bile for those who live in cOntrlbutOry
towns as well as in the large cities to
see this magnificent voorhees, play
with its cast of 1900 characters, a
ballet of 300 dancing girls, a grand
opera chorus of 400 voices, 600 horses
and train load of special scenery,
costumes, properties and mechanical
devices for producing such stage
effects as thunder, lightning, storms,
fires, and the sound of battle.
In the old market place Of Rouen,
France, there now stands a monu-
ment by which the French OF today
have sought to redeem their part In
the execution of Joan Of Arc. who on
May 80, 1881, was burned to death on
the false charge Of heresy after hay
ing delivered her country from the
English and having restored the crown
to Charles VII. History records but
the meager facts Of this strange
heroine of eighteen years, who LED The
armies of France victorious through
English invasion. ard then, deserted
by all. even the InGolent monarch
whom she preserved, died by the
cruelest torture known with the name
of the master upon her lips. Unsung
in poetry, the name Of this simple
peasant girl has come down through
the ages to be reyered as that of a
saint, and whose wonderful power
and whose bravery are verify believed
To have been of divine inspiration.
On the triumphant incidents, the
victorious engagements, the final de
feat of the English armies, and the
coronation of Charles VII, all &C
hieved by the frail Maid of Orleans
has been founded the inspiring spec
tacle which gives Ringing Brothers
circus a new significance and makes
an attraction such as the world In
searching for amusement has never
before found.
The regular circus program is more
than ever attractive. Its company Of
375 foreign artists, its double mena
gerie and it's new street parade viii
tpruvesa great sarp-ise to those VIII
attend from this city. The event Il
one that should not be missed.

Paint Better

Better isn't enough; paint best.
A man bought Cheap" paint; saved
20c or 80 or 10 or SOC a gallon, didn't
he?
Yes, ane bought 40 or so or go or 80
percent more gallons; how much did he
make on his paint?
And he paid for painting those gal
lons-a fair days work is gallon-how
much did he make on the labor part of
his job?
He lost quarter or third of his mon
ey.
How long will it last? not his money,
the paint?
Perhaps half as long as Devoe. How
long will his money last, If he buys
other stuff as he bought that paint?
Better buy the best paint; it makes
the least bin and least-often.
