Chronic Catarrh.

Our manner Of living makes us
very susceptible to colds and suc-
cession 'of colds causes chronic ca
tarrh, loathsome disease with which
lit is estimated that nirety-iive per
cent of our adult population are af
flicted. If yo11 would avoid chronic
Icatarrh you must avoid colds or hav-
ing contracted a cold get rid Of it
as quickly as possible. Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is highly recon-
mended as a cure for colds and can
be depended upon.-(Adv.)

Makes Record Attendance.

All records. for attendance were
broken at the Grand Theatre last
Sunday when s.tThe Love Special
with Wallace Reid in the title role,
was shown. This cozy theatre has
1900 seats and every one of them was
taken from the time the doors were
thrown open until they closed at
might. Like all other picturess shown
at the Grand, the "Love Special
was of high order. Standing room
was at a premium every time the
picture was shown.

DOna al0SonVi11a Sent y I 1901

Donaldsonville, sept.Sl5, 1921.
Dear Editor:
In your valuable paper of the 10th
inst. there appeared letter signed
"a. Merchant" in which he called
attention to the imposition of some
people who never honor their bills
at the stores while others pay when
they get good and ready. Since the
writer of the article has expressed
my sentiments exactly in the matter
l cannot refrain from congratulating
him upon his truthful remarks. What
we need is organization to protect
ourselves from the ''dead beats" who
can always find money for luxuries
but will not honor their debts for
clothing, groceries or drugs. Now is
the time for action since: the ball
has been started rolling. These
"dead beats" can be suppressed by
keeping tab on them and furnishing
every business establishment in town
with their names.
ANOTHER MERCHANT.

upon the trusted foundations of poi- tical liberty.
 We have no selfish ends to serve, We desire no conquest, no dominion. We seek no indemnities for ourselves, no material compensation for the sacrifices we shall freely make. We are but one of the champions of the rights of mankind. We shall be sat- isfied when those rights have been as secure as the faith and freedom of the nations can make them. e
 
 It will be all the easier for us to conduct ourselves as belligerents in high spirit of right and fairness be- cause we act without animus, not in enmity towards a people or with de- sire to bring any injury or disadvan- tage upon them. but only in armed opposition to an irresponsible gov ernment which has thrown aside all consideration of humanity and of right and is running amuck. To such a task we can dedicate our lives and our fortunes, everything that we are and everything that we have, with the pride of those who know that the day has come when a nation is privileged to spend her blood and her money for the prin- ciples that gave her birth and happi- ness and the peace which she has treasured. God helping her. she car do no other.

WILSON'S MESSAGE . PROCLAIMING WAR
 WAS MASTERPIECE

President Wilson's war message was delivered before the joint session of Congress on the night of April 2, 1917. It contained the following dramatic utterances:
 I have called the Congress into ex- traordinary session because there are serious, very serious choices of policy to be made immediately, which it was neither right nor constitutionally per missible that I should assume the re- sponsibility of making.
 With profound sense of the solemn and even tragical character of the step I am taking and of the grave responsibilities which it involves, but in unhesitating obedience to what I deem my constitutional duty, I ad- wise that Congress declare the recent course of the Imperial German gov- ernment to be in fact nothing less than war against the government and people of the Stated States; that it formally accepts the status of belli- gerents which has thus been thrust upon it and that it take immediate steps not only to put the country in more thorough state of defense but also to exert all it's power and em- ploy all it's resources to bring the government of the German Empire to terms and end the war.
 The world must be made safe for democracy. Its pace must be planted

 Col. Fauntleroy came to the United States on leave of absence from the Polish Army last Fall after the clutch of winter had made it impossible fo the Lenine troops to renew the offens- dye against the beleaguered country. During the winter he has lectured in most of the principle cities of this country.
 "I am returning to Poland in the near future to be on hand when the spring campaign opens," fhe Colonel said last night. Although there have been repeated rumors that peace between Poland and Russia is about to be concluded there are evi- dences that the Polish Army will be called upon again this year to stand as the bulwark against Bolshevik en- improbable that there will be more fighting

Big Educational Drive For Home
 Rule Is Plan

Dub1in.-An intensive campaign of publicity to convince the people of the south of Ireland that it would be to their advantage to accept the new Home Rule act will be launched shortly.
 Opposition to the measure, centering in the south, is believed in official circles to be due largely to ignorance of the powers conferred by its provis- ions. Sir Hamar Greenwood, the Chief Secretary, is said to be de- termined that everyone, the length and breadth of the island shall have full opportunity to study the law.
 Thousands of copies Of the act have been printed for gratuitous circulation. The country will be flooded with these circulars accompanied by a memor- andum explaining the effect of the measure. Particular efforts will be made to see that the publicity reaches persons in position to infiu- mailed 10 school teachers, priests and others prominent in community life. 1t is planned to make the campaign an effective weapon directly aimed at the Sim Fein movement
 No important section of Irish opin- ion has shown any willingness thus far to regard the act as even a basis for peace negotiations with the Brit ish officials

A good crowd was on hand, but if they expected a real battle to the finish they were disap- pointed. However, there was some excitement, and it was gratifying to see the legion come back, for the team was more or less weakened by the, withdrawal of Flood, following his injuries in the high school fire.

Frankincense.

Most of the genuine frankincense
produced In the world today comes
from trees growing In Somaliland, in
eastern Africa. When the resin is
ready for the harvest-shortly after
the beginning Of the rainy season which
makes an abundance Of sap In the
:rees-natives cash the bark Of each
tree In a number Of places, taking
care to loosen the bark at the bottom
Of each cut sufficiently to form little
pocket.
The sap ooZes out and gradually col
lects In the pockets. 1t hardens slow
ly In contact with the air. Within
about q month it becomes hard enough
to be handled. Then the little pellets
Of gum-called "tears"-are cut out Of
the pockets and new incisions are
made I'm the bark. This process is re-
peated at 30-day intervals until the
end of the harvesting season in Sep
tember. The pellets or "tears" are
marketed as soon as they are fully
hardened. A vigorous tree will pro-
duce about 16 pounds Of frankincense
yearly.
