but once during the entire season.

Cotton Suffers
From Rains

The surrounding country has
had too much rain for the crops.
The cotton is shedding on account
of too much rain and the farmers
are perplexed over the present
situation.
With the war facing them on
one side and the rainy season on
the other it is thought that the
cotton farmer will have a hard
road to travel. There are Sec
lions in the parish, however,
which has not been visited with
too much rain and the crops
there are in good condition, and
a good yield is expected.
East of Opelousas, however,
it is reported that rains have
been too frequent and that the
newly-planted vegetables have
been washed out.
Be sure to be on the lookout
for our proposition, which we
will make soon. 1t is the greatest
one ever offered by any weekly
in Southwest Louisiana.

THE SLUGGISH LIVER.
This Faithful Organ i Never Lazy.
and eftsa svsrwesksd.
by DR.. r. r. Daniels).

| The liver is not only the largest
organ in the body. but il does more
work and greater variety of work
than any other organ. 1t islands az a
great sentinel between the mouth and
the entire body. Practically every
thing you swallow has to go through
the liver before it is available for
bodily use.
How Overeating Overworks
the Body
When you eat and digest more
food then your body can use up. the
burden falls largely upon the liver.
The excess of digested meat is des-
troyed by the liver, and the excess of
starchy food is stored up in the cells
Of the liver. When your habits Of
eating are such as to cause irdigest
ion, much Of the food ferments and
decomposes and forms poisons. In
such cases the liver is a real life
saver, it destroys these poisons almost
as rayidly as they are formed. and
thus prevents injury to the body at
at large.
Taking Care of Body Wastes.
As the food is burned up by the
tissues the waste is taken at once by
the blood to the liver. Many of these
waste materials are poisons, and the
liver gets them out of the way before
they can do harm, in many cases by
uniting two poisons chemically to
form a simple, harmless substance
easily thrown off by the kidneys
This is the other important work of
the liver.
The OverwOrked Liver
Just like most people, the liver is
capable. of doing only a certain
amout of work. When this organ is
compelled to. perform an excess of
any one kind of work, it neglects its
other work. When you force your
liver to store up quantity of digest
ed excess food, or to burn up the
digested excess food of another kind.
and daily to destroy quantities of
food poisons coming from undigested
food, you are overworking the liver,
and thus you make it impossible for
the liver to keep the body clear of
waste materials and body poisons.
Then you say your liver is lazy, when
in reality it is working night and day
to keep you well.
