Whereas, the Bayou Tsche is a re-
cognized navigable stream and one
Of the principal waterways of South
west Louisiana connecting up the
parishes of st. Landry and st. Martin
with deep water navigation at Nor
gan City; and
Whereas, by reason of the exees-

er and the Gulf of Mexico; and
Whereas, by reason of the dredg-
ing and opening of said Bayou Teche
by the Atchafalaya Teche and Yer
million Company, the said Bayou Teche
is now navigable for water craft
suited for transportation purposes;
and
Whereas, such navigation is OBJ
stFucted and made impossible by rea-
son Of the permanent character of
the railroad bridges constructed over
said Bayou by the New Orleans, Tex

Repatriation.
CHAPTER I.

Dan Failing stepped out of the ele- vator and was at once absorbed in the crowd that ever surged up and down Broad street. He was just one of the ordinary drops of water, not an interesting, elaborate, physical and chemical combination to be studied on the slide of a microscope. He wore fairly paSSable clothes, neither rich nor shabby. He was a tali k6Sn, but gave no impression of strength because of the exceeding spareness of his frame. As long as he remained in the crowd, he wasn't important enough to be studied. But soon he turned off, through the park, and straightway found himself alone
 The noise and hustle of the crowd never loud or startling, but so contin- uouS that the senses are scarcely more aware of them than of the beat ing of ones own heart-sudden1y and utterly died almost at the very border of the park. The noise from the

street seemed wholly unable to pene- trate the thick branches of the trees. He could even hear the leaves whisk- ing and f1icking together, and when a man can discern this, he can hear the cushions of a mountain lion on a trail at night. Of course Dan Failing had never heard a mountain lion. Except on the railroad tracks between, he had never really been away from cities in his life.
 At once his thought went back to the doctors words. They were still repeating themselves over and over in his ears, and the doctors face was still before his eyes. It had been a kind face; the lips had even curled in a little smile of encouragement. But the doctor had been perfectly frank, entirely straightforward. There had been no evasion in his verdict.
 'T've made every test" he said. ''They're pretty well shot. Of course, you can go to some sanitarium, if you've got the money. If you haven't enjoy yourself all you can for about six months."
 Dams voice had been perfectly cool and sure when he replied. He had smiled a little, too. He was still rath- CT proud of that smile. "Sfx months? Isn't that rather short?"
 Maybe a whole lot shorter. I think that's the limit
 There was the situation: Dan Fail ing had but six months to live. He began to wonder whether his mother had been entirely wise in her effort to keep him from the trough games" of the boys of his own age. He realized now that he had been an underweight all his life-that the frailty that had thrust him to the edge of the grave had begun in his earliest boyhood. But 1t wasn't that he was born with phy- sica1 handicaps. He had weighed a full. ten pounds; and the doctor had told his father that sturdier little chap was not to be found in any ma ternity bed in the whole city. But his mother was convinced that the child

that the house will always be dry.
 Green feed is very essential for the
 growing chickens, the ideal condition
 being to allow them free range on
 good grass land. Alfalfa makes an
 ideal range. Where the chickens have
 to be confined to small yards it is
 very essential to supply green feed
 daily. Freshly cut lawn clippings and
 short pieces of any growing grain
 crop, such as oats, wheat or any quick
 growing crop, such as rape, make splendid green, feed. Where these growing feeds are not available sprouted oats may be used and will help materially. Where a hen is kept
 with a brood of chickens and the chickens confined to a small covered pen, move this coop and pen every two or three days to fresh grass and never let the grass be killed or eaten down where the run is placed. Provide fresh, clean water daily and see that the re- ceptacles are thoroughly cleaned and the chickens never without water. The water should be kept in the shade in as cool a place as possible. Using stone crock for watering fountains will help to keep the water cool. Where the chickens are confined to yards or have free range shade should be provided. Trees and low shrubs make ideal shade, but if not available a corn patch or rows of sun- flowers will help materially. Where no growing crop or trees of any kind are available it will pay to put up an artificial shade, making a framework two or three feet high and covering this with the branches of trees, weeds, straw or any waste material that will furnish shade.

ly know Gitcheapolis now. The busf- ness district has increased tenfold.
 And the place where used to be the
 pool and the playground of Dan Fail
 ing is now laid off in as green and
 pretty a city park as one could wish
 to see.
 Some day, when the city becomes more prosperous, a pair of swans and a herd of deer are going to be intro duced, to restore some of the natural wild life of the park. But in the sum- mer of 1919, a few small birds and possibly half a dozen pairs of squir- reIs were the extent and limit of the wild creatures. And at the moment this story opens, one of these Squir- rels was perched on a wide-spreading limb overarching a gravel path that slanted through the sunlit park. The squirrel was hungry. He wished that some one would come along with a nut.
 There was a bench beneath the tree. If there had not been, the life of Dan Failing would have been entirely diff ferent. If the squirrel had been on any other tree, if he hadn't been hungry, if any one of a dozen other things hadn't been as they were, Dan Failing would have never gone back to the land of his people. The little bushy-tailed fellow on the tree limb was the squirrel of Destinyl

I do not need my cane now, but as I had been unable to walk without it for several years, I got into the habit of carry ing it, and so still take it along. I am enjoying life and health once more and can conscientiously recommend Tanlac as the greatest medicine I have ever run across in all my ex- perience."

John F. Hyatt, of Albany, N. Y., Is Relieved of Se- were Attack of Rheuma- tism of M any Years Standing.

Il am now seventy-two years old and am just getting rid of a fifteen year case of rheumatism that had me so crippled up I could not walk. 5
 said John F. Hyatt, 227 Pearl St., Albany, N. F., in relating his re- markable experience with TanIac, re- gently. MT. Hyatt was chairman of the committee in charge of building the Albany County Courthouse and was four times elected a member of the County Board of Supervisors. At present Mr. Hyatt is Assistant Super intendent of the Albany County Courthouse, with offices in the build ing.
 I don't believe" he continued anybody could have rheumatism any worse than 1 did, and my case was of such long standing I didn't expect to ever get over it. I was unable to walk except for a short distance, sup ported with a cane, and even then the pains struck me every time I took a step. My legs, hips and ankles hurt something awful and my joints were stiff and achy. I couldn't cross my leg without having to. lift it up with my hands, and to turn over in bed why, the pains nearly killed me.
 My appetite was gone and the sight of food nauseated me. My stomach was out of order, and I had a sluggish, heavy feeling all the time. I was weak, off in weight and dis so that it looked like might as well quit trying to ever get well.

Only by continuous selection for health mad vigor is it possible to build up a flock which will produce fertile eggs, strong chicks capable of making quick growth, and bullets with suffi- cient stamina to withstand the strain of heavy egg production. The appear ance of a bird is not always a sure in dication of its vigor, but appearance and action taken together are a fairly reliable guide for picking out vigorous birds.

 In addition to furnishing sufficient quantity and the right kind of feed to make flesh, muscle and bone, and sup ply energy for the growing chicks, clean dry quarters, green feed, fresh water and shade should be provided.

Bathing came to Europe as one or the good results of the CrusadeS.

In this they were highly successful first in England and from that to other countries. So popular did the bath be come that it became customary to have one before ceremonies such as mar riage or knighthood, and the people have been ever since learning the value of keeping their skins clean.
