DR. WEBB SUES FOR SALARY.
Crowley, La., March 5.—Late in
.1914 Dr. H. C. Webb was deposed
by a night session of the police jury
and Dr. M. L. Hoffpauir was elected
to replace him as president of the
Acadia parish board of health. The
matter was fought out in the courts,
ending in a vicory for Dr. Webb,
who now brings suit for eighteen
months' back salary and an expense
bill, all totaling $1569.60. Among
the items of his bill filed in the suit
are the vaccinations of 757 school
children at 50 cents each and the ex
amination of four lepers at $200

It begins to look like an early
start will be made on the $90,000
sewerage to be installed in New
Iberia for the convenience of our
public. On Thursday, Mr. E. J.
Henriques of Magnolia, Miss., the
consulting engineer and asistant to
Mr. X. A. Kramer made his appear
ance in New Iberia. From what we
learn one of the first things that
will be done will be to purchase a
site for the location of^ the septic
tanks. A few members of the
Board are inclined to purchase a
few acres from the Pascal tract
near the basin of the canal which
leads to the Gulf, while others are
inclined to select a strech owned by
the Patout Brothers, just across the
fence line of the holdings of Mr.
Auguest Pasal.—Weekly Iberian.

REUNITED
This was the situation with Clyde
Richards when his twenty-first birth
day arrived. He had sold his first
picture as a landscape artist and his
brother artists had found only a little
fault with it. He had money enough
to struggle along until success came,
but none to make a show with. Ac
quaintances had cautioned him not to
hamper himself, and friends had told
him outright that it would not be good
policy to handicap himself with a wife.
Clyde Richards was iu love and had
been for a year or more, and Marian
Fletcher knew that he was, but no
word had been spoken. He was a
regular caller at her father's house
and had reason to believe that his
culls were rather looked for, but he
did not indulge in any hopes. Her
father was a broker and reputed to he
well off, and she held her head very
high as a daughter of a rich man.
A girl of nineteen is romantic, how
ever, and had he spoken his love who
could tell what would have happened?
The case stood thus when a word or
two from Miss Marian dashed all of
the young artist's hopes. One evening
when he was a caller and they had
talked a little of his art she said in a
laughing way:
"Father is so practical. He was
talking about you the other day, and
I told him you were a landscape paint
er. He answered from his own view
of things. He asked why you did not
paint houses an<j barns and thereby
make a good living."
It was a very foolish speech and in
tended more as a joke than to hurt,
and the girl regretted it as soon as
the words had left heg lips. It was
too late, however. The young man
did not show his resentment, but he
felt it and it brought about restraint
between them. He left the house with
his mind made up not to call againg
Six months later he saw in the pa
pers that the broker had suffered a
complete collapse financially, and was
told by friends that he and his daugh
ter bad retired to the country. A rela
tive had given him a little farm, and
all their friends soon forgot them.
It was two years later that Mr.
Clyde Richards was motoring along a
»country road when he came to a. coun
try schoolhouse. School was dismissed
for the day. On the steps sat a young
woman who was weeping, and beside
her sat an old man whom anybody
would have called a skinflint after the
first glance. In a dim way the artist j
felt that he had seen the yonng worn
an before, but he could not fully recall '
her. He was driving his machine slow- :
ly and he heard the old man say: j
"That mortgage and Interest has j
got' to be paid within ten days or I
shall commence proceedings to fore-i
close 1"
"Then we shall have to live In the
fields!" sobbed the girl.
The artist stopped his car almost
in front of them, for he saw it was a
case of distress. The old skinflint rose
up and shook his fist at him, and then
said to the girl :
"Now, then, remember what I have
said. If the money is not paid, ont
you go!"
For a long minute after he had
walked away, the girl sat blinded by
her tears. Then she wiped them away
and looked up. She gave a sudden
start of surprise. She left the steps
and walked out to the car and, after
taking a careful look at the occupant,
she tried her best to smile as she said :
"Why, it's Mr. Richards ! Who would
have thought of seeing you here?"
"Yes, it is Mr. Richards," was the
reply. "Do you live around here?"
"About a mile and a half down the
road. Hadn't you heard that I was
the schoolteacher for this district?']
He extended her his hand to help
her into the anto, and, after a mo
ment's hesitation, she was beside him.
They bad gone half a mile before he
said:
"Now, then, tell me all about it."
He was almost the last man in the
world she wanted to tell her troublas
to, but he spoke so kindly and seemed
so strong that she began to talk, and, j
after a time, he knew all. Her father j
had almost collapsed mentally and i
physically. He was able to do little or
no work. They were, in fact, pension- j
ers on the bounty of relatives. She:
had been a schoolteacher for two or
three years, but the salary was so low j
that it did not help much. The old ;
man with whom she had been talking
was a money-lender and had induced
her father to mortgage a little farm
without saying anything to her about j
it. She was not complaining nor la- j
menting. She had done the best she !
could, and she would bear her troubles j
the best she could.
He on his part told her of his sue- !
cess, but not iu a boasting way, and i
the past between them was not re- i
ferretl to. When they arrived at the j
little farm, he helped her out of the 1
car and, instead of driving on. lie j
walked into the house with her. After ,
he had greeted lier father, he sat
down and said:
"Mr. Fletcher, listen carefully to
me. I am going to marry your daugh
ter. I am going to pay up that mort
gage and then you are to deed the
place over to her. You shall live with
us, and we'll make you as comfortable
as we can. This shall be my studio in
the summer, and in the winter we will
live in town. Marian, what do you
say to this?"
And Marian's tears and blushes
made the answer plain.

FAMILY AVOIDS
SEHOUS SICKNESS
By Bong Constantly Supplied With
Thedford's Black-Draught.
McDuff, Va.— "I suffered for several
years," says Mrs. J. B. Whittaker, of
this place, "with sick headache, and
stomach trouble.
Ten years ago a friend told me to try
Thedford's Black-Draught, whîfh I did,
and 1 found it to be the best family medi
cine for young and old.
I keep Black-Draught on hand all the
time now, and when my children feel a
little bad, they ask me for a dose, and it
does them more good than any medicine
they ever tried
We never have a long spell of sick
ness in our family, since we commenced
using Black-Draught."
Thedford's Black-Draught is purely
vegetable, and has been found to regu
late weak stomachs, aid digestion, re
lieve indigestion, colic, wind, nausea,
headache, sick stomach, and similar
symptoms.
It has been in constant use for more
than 70 years, and has benefited more
iiir
than a million people.

Once in two years the Genera!
Feredation holds its great "Bien

more intimate personal intercourse.
This year's Council is to be held,
Aprial 9-13 in New Orleans, the car

It is composed of the officers and
director of the General Federation,
the chairman of its departments, the

presidents of clubs holding direct
tion, honorary officers of the General
Federation and local federation and
