GET A MOVE ON, Mr.. MORGAN.

1t Is persistently rumored that Mr..
R. NJ Leake will receive appointment
as postmaster of st. Francisville very
soon. We are not prepared to say any
thing concerning the correctness of
this rumor, although Mr.. Leake is very
confident. 1t will be relief to those
most concerned, and the public in
general, if the deadlock over this post
office question be broken very soon, as
it is due the two applicants that their
suspense should be relieved as soon as
possible. At the same time, however
friendly every ones feelings may be
personally to Mr.. Elwyn Barrow, the
present postmaster, SO long as it is the
custom to change officials with the
party in power, it is but just that a
Democrat and not Republican should
have it. Congressman Morgan no
doubt perceives the logic of the situa-
ton and will be congratulated upon
his taking steps to decide between the
applicants: Mr. R. M. Leake, life
long Democrat, and Mrs. w. T. For
roster, widow of a stalwart young
Democrat.

for the entertainment of the delegates

state organization of the Woman's
Auxiliary. There are AZ branches in
Louisiana, besides the Junior auxiliary

This afternoon session will be given
up to- reports on the Auxiliary work

be service that these church workers
may partake together of holy COM
munion. This will be followed by a
business meeting for the work of the
Junior Auxiliary branches.

GOSPEL FOR SUNDAY, OCT. 1s.
st. Matthew, 9: 1-9.

And he entered into ship, and pass
ed over, and came into his own city.
And, behold, they brought to him a
man sick of the palsy, lying on bed:
and Jesus seeing their faith said unto
the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good
cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.
And, behold, certain of the scribes
said within themselves, This man
blasphemeth.
And Jesus knowing their thoughts
said, Wherefore think We evil in your
hearts?
For whether is easier, to say, Thy
sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise,
and walk?
But that We may know that the Son
of man hath power on earth to forgive
sins, (then saith he to the sick of the
palsy) Arise, take up thy bed, and go
unto thine house.
And he arose, and departed to his
house.
But when the multitudes saw it, they
marvelled, and glorified God, which
had given such power unto men.

THE RED CROSS NURSE.

(Arthur Guiterman in Colliers.)
She goes amid the maddened press
OF Teuton, Briton, Slav and Gaul
Our Nations White Ambassadress
The foe of none, the friend of all.
Above the guns, above the cheers
OF Flag or Kaiser, Folk or King,
The common cry alone she hears
The cry of human suffering.
Still men will play the devils-game
Though all must lose and none may win
And still foolish worlds acclaim
Exalts the sworded paladin.
But tears will fall and lips will pray
And hearts beat warm in every land
For her who saves while heroes slay
Oh, valiant soul; oh, gentle hand!

1t is amusing to read interviews and
advice from the Agricultural Depart
ment and Northern sources, advising
Southern farmers to plant peas"
Those people do not know that the
cotton states are the greatest producers
of peas and pea beans" as the war
and navy departments call them, in the
world. This is never fully shown in
census reports, for the reason that the
greater areas are planted with view
OF cutting for hay and are reported by
the farmers as hay" In the cotton
states the corn field pea" or the pea
bean" is universal product and a
favorite food with all classes.

IMPROVING THE COUNTRY HOME.
(The Progressive Farmer.)

First should come the use of more
paint. 1t is nothing more than good
economy to brighten up" our build
ings, and the improved appearance OF
the place is consideration of no mean
Importance. Along with the paint
should come simpe system OF water
Works-noIhing elaborate, nothing ex-
penslve, nothing not within financial
reach OF the average farmer; but some
thing that will do away with the carry
ing of water by the different members
OF the family. Such system will cost
only little more than d hundred dol
lars, and Its meaning as a labor saver
and promoter OF the family happiness
is simply incalculaDle. At first, moth
ing more than running water in the
Kitchen need be provided for; later, as
Finances permit, bathroom and sewage
disposal system may be Installed From
the standpoint of health alone, to say
nothing Of convenience, home water
works are an excellent investment.
Despite the fact that the open country
should be the most healthful place to
I've, the disagreeable truth remains
that typhoid fever, particularly, is more
prevalent On the farm than in the
cities. More, perhaps, than to any
other one factor, this is due to the
impure water supply and a lack of
adequate sanitary conveniences. Water
works properly installed mean the
practical elimination of danger from
the terrible typhoid scourge, with the
suffering, disability, and doctors bills
entailed. And finally, there should
come better lighting arrangements
than are found in the average farm
|home.-The Progressive Farmer.
There is not the least doubt in the
world that one of the chief causes of
the average boy or girl leaving the
home farm is the lack of charm and
comfort there, the endless chores, the
heavy carrying of water, all of which
could easily be taken care of by me-
chanical contrivances. 1t is not the
big things of teamwork that cause
distaste, but all the little odds and
ends of work, never ending, still begin
ming. The wise parent that wants to
keep his boy and girl at home will try
to increase the home comforts and
Tighten the farm work.
