The Side Walk Question.
During the past few days we t
hbave made mention of the neces
sity of cement sidewalks and this, f
naturally, has raised some discus.
sion upon this important matter. c
We must say that many of our I
citizens have discussed the matter t
with us and they are all in favor
of cement sidewalks and we feel r
satisfied that in the course of ac
few days, matters will be in shape i
for us to submit a plan that will
be entirely satisfactory to all who
are of sound mind and can reason
ably discuss a question of necessi
ty, advancement and progress, we,
of course, would not undertake
the discussion of such importance
with a few moss backs who fall
into fits when they see any thing
that looks like progress and will
eventually lead to prosperity, such
unfortunate will surely go to
Heaven if not to the Pineville
Asylum. Some cannot control
their safety valve and are. natu
rally, not responsible for their
noisy vaporings.
If we want to retain our autbo
rity as an incorporated commui
ty. we must, and will have cement
sidewalks. The more progressive
towns like Crowley, New Iberia
and Jeanerette are not satisfied
with paved sidewalks, but are pay
ing their streets and today even
the parishes are paving their main
thoroughfares.
Under such progressive condi
tions can the people of St. Martin
ville take a step backward and op
pose the building of a system of
cement sidewalks, we say no! Antl
we trust that the town authorities
will take the matter in hand at
once and push it to mature forms
with the least delay possible.
We must have cement sidewalks
and the sooner the better.
The implicit confidence that many peo
ple have in Chamberlain's Colic. Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy is founded on
their experience in the use of that remedy
and their knowledgeof the many remark
able curer* of colic, diarrhoea and dysen
tery that it has effected. For sale by all

Your Printed Matter Is
Your Introduction.
Consider for a moment the
business men you would like to
meet in the city. Would you
want some one to take you
around and introduce you if
he wore a cheap, wrinkled
I suit, dirty collar and battered
hat ?
This is the impression you
give these same business men
when you send them cheap
and careless printing. Prin
r ted matter is your introduc
I tion to them and you should
make it as neat and attractive
ias you would make your own
appearance if you were to
meet these men face to face.
You can always be sure of
Shaving your printing attractive
if you let us handle your work.
We put thought aiid care into
- the type arrangement and the
selection of stock. It means
- the right kind of an introduc
e tion every time.
Call us up or drop into our
office and let us prove to you
how it means to have the
RIGHT kind of printed matter
-and how cheap it is in the end
than any other kind at any
price whatever.
