DO 1T NOW.

One of the highest duties a
man owes to himself, and to his
State, is to pay his poll tax.
By paying your poll tax, you
preserve the high privilege OF
voting, and selecting the Off
Gals who are to serve you and
the State.
By paying your poll tax, you
add one dollar to the education
al fund Of your parish. There
should be four thousand dollars
collected in this Parish for that
purpose.
When you preserve your priv
ilege of voting, you serve the
State as well as yourself, and
when you fail to vote, you add
to the many things which so
many people complain of, and
when you disqualify yourself
for this privilege, you have no
right to complain about public
affairs.
You have just TWELVE more
legal days from this date in
which to pay your poll tax. The
Tax Collector will be ready at
any time of day for you to walk
in and pay up. If you are unable
to send it in, or to come your
self, give it to a neighbor who is
coming in to pay his tax. Do
not wait on paying your prop
erty tax, if you are not ready for
that tax now, but send in your
dollar before January 1st next.
REMEMBER, JUST TWELVE
MORE DAYS left. Pay it. Do
1T NOW.

out his hand to her; deftly she smoothed his pillow, asking quick questions as to doctors orders and showing the bewildered father how to follow them, all the time talking in soothing, comforting little sentences to the child. Were good pals, aren't we, Tommy? And we're going to have some awfully good times together, aren't we? And will you make bar gain with me? When my little Peter kins was sick he did just what want ed him to do. Will you do that, dar- ling? If you will you may call me Aunt Grace, just as he does. Will you, dearest?"
 "Ravver call you muvver," whis- pered the child hoarsely.
 The color flooded Miss WOodburn's face, but with little life hanging in the balance there was no time to hesi- tate. "All right, little man, it's bar

H'SeSSA OOHfSInInSs is it, old man, to get us lady for our home" He somehow could not say the word mother lightly, though it had been five long years since Tommy's mother died. Tt would be nice. Have you found any one, spoken to any one yet?"
 ''Id like to have the lady wiv the shiny eyes that takes me to school mornings" admitted Tommy. q asked her once was she a muvver, and she said no, just only little boys aunt. spect she's so busy being a aunt that she wouldn't have any time to be a muvver," and the child sighed deject. edly. "I wisht you'd ask her daddy. Won't you?"
 Why, don't know Miss Woodburn, old man." The father smiled a little ruefully as he remembered that he had thought to strike up an acquaintance through the child, but Miss Woodburn had coldly repulsed him, though she had long been fast friend of Tom- my's, stopping for him to slip his hand into hers as she hurried to her school, room, which was in the same building as the kindergarten. q think we have pretty good times together, after all. Shall daddy be the bear tonight?
 I'm most afraid I'm sick, daddy" murmured the boy; 'I spect I'd better go to bed."
 MT. Birney gathered Tommy -Trot up solicitously and prepared him for bed. '1 wisht your lap fitted me better, daddy. I'm going to get the New Year lady's lap to fit like Benny Jones' muvver's does," complained the child, drowsily.
 The next morning Miss Grace Wood burn slackened her pace, expecting Tommy to come running as usual, then she retraced her steps, walking slowly past the house. The door swung open and MT. Birney, coatless, an apron tied about his neck. frantically ex- plained that Tommy-Trot was very sick with the croup, that the doctor was trying to get nurse, but he feared the child would die before they could get help, as the woman who kept their cottage was away.
 Fortunately Miss Woodburn had taken a first-aid course; also, in her strenuous business of being an aunt, she had helped to take little Nephew Peter through very severe attack of croup. She knew that every minute was precious. She began drawing off her gloves and unfastening her wraps as she hastened after MT. Birney. She teiephoned her assistant to take her place till further orders, then reached out her hand for the apron. Lovingly she bent over Tommy-Trot, who held

gain and you'll take the bad medicine just as If it were good"
 Patiently she worked, sending the grateful father flying on errands, or telephoning the doctor to ask for fuller directions. No man has any concep- tiOn of a WOman's resOurcefulneSS till he sees her trying to save the life of some one dangerously i'll. MT. Thomas Birney watched, fascinated, the move ments of this highly competent young woman who seemed never to give him a thought except to order him about. Noon came-the afternoon was almost spent before the child was sleeping calmly in her arms, the crisis passed.
 We've won" she announced to the father, "and if you will get me a glass of hot milk I will be very grateful
 I'm ashamed not to have thought of that myself" he told her remorse- fully as he hurried to obey. When he returned she tried to dispatch him to get himself something to eat.
 'Td rather not" he assured her; q do not think I could eat I only want to make you understand how much appreciate what you have done for me and Tommy-Trot. We'll be your de- voted slaves from now on and Tom mys father will run him a close race, Miss Woodburn."
 Tt was mighty fortunate that re- membered that l had promised to stop for him. she said quietly. But think now that you had better get your din- her at once and then I will run home for mine when you return" Her tone brooked no argument, although MT. Birney much preferred to look at the picture of her holding his sleeping child than to eat
 Shortly after Miss Woodburn had her dinner MT. Birney, in distress, tele- phoned that Tommy had awakened and was crying hysterically for her. Would she come and stay little wbile and get him to take one more dose of medicine? Hastily putting on her wraps, Miss Woodburn started for the Birneys', taking with her an old nurse who she knew would stay with Tommy for the night.
 You pwomised mel" he walled. "You shan't go back to Peter; I'll fwash him!"
 Abashed, but smiling, Miss Wood- burn soothed the child, who clung to her till she assured him over and over again that she would return in the morning, and Mrs. Brown would stay till she came back. When Tommy -Trot was finally quieted for the night, MT. Birney insisted on taking Miss Wood burn home, and 1t seems that most of the time was spent in telling her about his family and his prospects, as though he felt it necessary that she should be thoroughly acquainted with his biog- raphy. Next day he made the ac- quaintance of her father and repeated the story and much more about him. self and Tommy-Trot. And as Tommy soon learned the way to the Wood- burns also the neighbors are wonder ing whose cOurtship is the most ardent, MT. Birney's or Tommy-Trot's. But certain it Is that Miss Grace Woodburn is to be the New Year lady in the Birney home.

 What's that, Sir Thomas?" asked his father, glancing up from his book.
 "Why, the New Year resolution thing" answered Tommy as he labo- riously put on some finishing touches
 Pretty big word, that What about it?"
 Yep, but then I don't say it much Ats sort of like bet. You bet you do or you bet you don't. An I'm going to bet do." And Tommy closed his book on little fat finger and climbed on bis fathers knee.
 , And what is it you're betting you'll do, Busterkins?" smiled his father, rumpllng up the boys brown curls The child was unusually serious; he looked intently at his father. "I'm going to see about getting a lady for our home, daddy. I'm so tired being wivout one. IT want a muvver, dad dy-a muvver is so handy" And try as he might to make his declaration very matter of fact, Tommy-Trot's chin quivered and he hid his face on his fathers shoulder.
 Mir. Birney laid aside his pipe and for full long minute said nothing. ''So that's your New Years resolution,
