The Best Of Luck.

A certain young lady had queer
experience last week when she lost
a pair Of eye glasses costing fifteen
dollars and found them again in a
most miraculous manner. She went
about without them for a day or so
very much annoyed at their disappear
ance, mentally coming to the SORROW
full conclusion that another fifteen
dolllrs in this day Of high prices
would have to be forth coming, when
she Glanced to meet an acquaintance
OF hers on the street who had also
lost valued possession. The two
discovered instantly they had some
thing in common to bewail. The &C.
quaintance began: you haven't come
across a good silk umbrella with a
white ringhandle anywhere, have you?
I've lost ten dollar one and I'm sim
ply heart-sick. l suppose ought not
to complain since ! just picked up
somebody's glasses which must have
cost pretty penny! II you should
happen -" But right here the first
young lady broke in, Those glasses
belong to me / know" she exclaimed.
~ lost mine two days ago and Tvawor-
ried ever since. If this isn't the best
luck"
Sure enough the glasses turned out
to be the ones which we're missing, and
though the lady who lost the umbrel-
la hasn't found 1t as yet, she says she's
glad she saved fifteen dollars for a
friend.

One Of the crying needs of the
hour in Natchitoches is HOUSES

or another; or residents who occu-
py houses that are sold or bought

changes and for other reasons, the
demand far exceeds the supply.

BUT ONE MORE BIC WAR
LOAN DRIVE, SAYS CLASS
ANY Later Issue of Bonds Will
Be Marketed Quietly
Thru Banks.

Washington, Jan. 1o.-Only ono more
big war loan drive is planned by the
treasury department. Secretary Glass
said today That will be the Victory Lib
erty loan, to be floated probably the
last three weeks in April.
The amount will not be more than
SC. 700 100000 and may be $5,OOO,0OO,-
600
Il expect the Victory Liberty loan to
be the last intensive campaign for the
sale Of government bonds.' said Mr.
Glass. "Reports that there would be two
more bond issues this year aggregating
$12 600, 100000 are entirely without
foundation, not only as to amount, but
also as regards the number Of cam
paigns."
More bonds probably will be issued by
the government even after the next cam
paign, but it is planned to market
these quietly thru banks and other finan-
cial institutions, without the usual cam
paign Of advertising and soliciting
Most treasury officials believe that
the terms of the fifth, or Victory loan.
viii have to be made more attractive
than those of the past either by raising
the interest rate above III per cent or
by some other means.
