Small Things.

As with music, so with poetry II is
the little things that pay. Many an
Indifferent composer has made more
out Of single song or waltz than Sir
Edward Elgar has made out of The
Dream OF GerOntius," and many poet
has received more for brief lyric
than he can hope 10 get for work that
may have cost him months or years of
labor. Indeed, volume of verse often
makes less for the author than he re-
ceives for three or four pieces printed
in magazines or newspapers. 1t is the
same with less exalted matters. The
inventor Of a patent collar stud or boot
protector will make more money than
the inventor of something that really
benefits the human race. The little
thing that every one wants Is the thing
that pays, whether in trade or art.
Heroic accomplishment has the heroic
reward Of starvation.

MODERN BUSINESS HOUSES
TAKE PLACE OF OLD
PICTURE SHOW.

The old Market Theatre on Teche
street is now being demolished pre-
paratory to the erection of three or
more modern upto-date business
houses. Contractor Rouprich has now
all of his data ready to go ahead
with the plans and specifications.
The lots which were formerly occu-
pied by the old Market Theatre on
Teche street measure about sixty
feet together with an additional lot
adjoining will make the property
front there about ninety feet which
would give plenty of room for four
fair sized stores.
The old Market Theatre on Teche
street was the first successful NOV

was located on Vallette street in the

patronage.
