Sanders was held at Sanders' Shreveport headquarters Monday night, when reports were made by men from every section of the Fourth Congressional District as well as from the city itself. All gave full assurance from each parish in the district that Sanders' majority would be overwhelming. Elmer Stewart, attorney of De-Ridder, called at headquarters and stated that in his opinion Sanders would sweep Beauregard and that Broussard would not receive 250 votes in that parish, notwithstanding claims made by his Lake Charles supporters. All factions are united in his support, he stated. The report was also made from Vernon parish, in the Eighth district, that this stronghold of the former Governor is almost solid for him.

Silas Ponder reported that Sabine parish will return a large majority for Mr. Sanders. Shreveport Times of Tuesday. LEAVING THINGS TO CHANCE The overwhelming mass of humanity goes through life without plan or scheme, except for the immediate future. When one asks oneself why this state of affairs ex ists, the inevitable conclusion is that it is quite impossible to adapt oneself to one's environment with sufficient exactitude to guarantee a stable uniform existence.

Change is an invariable law of nature. If such be the prevailing conditions in everyday affairs, least that part of those affairs which has to do with gaining a subsistence, how much more so is the physical condition of the human body left to chance? Who bothers about his inner mechanism so long as things appear to run smoothly? Pew people enjoy perfect health: something: somewhere is always wrong. If the defect does not cause sufficient discomfort, it is neglected until it finally becomes unbearable, or the ailment under mines the structure or functions of the organ or organs in secret. and sudden death is the only object ive evidence that it ever existed. We should not forget that be sides disease the tissues of the human body are subject to wear and tear.

Unlike the mechanical device with which it is so often compared, the organs have the quality of re pairing or renewing themselves. The degree, however, is limited and depends on a number of complex factors. Uf these the condition of the intestinal tract, its freedom from waste matter and stagnation may rank as the most important. I here is some poetry but more truth about the apple a day keeping the doctor away than people are apt 1 to think. Toxic substances are alU snrA -i- which react on the kidneys, the liv- er and the heart.

What they are no one seems to know, but all do-- tors tnnnr frn "it do more to keep health up to stand- ard or help restore it when en- daneered than any drug. xnen tnere is the heart, the pre- ence of which is seldom apprehend- ed until it begins to register com- plaint. It works 24 hours out of ev-1 ery day and from the cradle to the grave with rest periods of only a fraction of a second between beats, yet it is strained by overwork, ex- pected to do overtime without pensation, exposed to toxins from bacteria, tobacco, whiskey, to the effects of close rooms and bad air i There will be a mission of one week at Sacred Heart Catholic Church, Rayville, La. The Re-demptorist, Rev. Father Becker, C.

SS. will conduct the mission. This mission will open Sunday morning, September 5th, with Holy Mass at 8 o'clock. Mass each morning during the week, will be at 6:30 A. followed by a short instruction.

Each evening, beginning Sunday evening, Sept. 5th, at 7:30 P. there will be a sermon followed by benediction of the blessed sacre-ment. Each day during the mission Father Becker will have daily instruction for the children each morning and afternoon. The hours for these exercises will be announced Sunday at 8 o'clock Mass.

Every one, Catholic and non-Catholic, is welcome and we urge the Catholic to attend the services regularly ana to bring theiFi friends. MEMBER. BRIDGE CLUB. Mrs. Eldred Gillis entertained the Bridge Club and a few guests delightfully on Wednesday afternoon.

The high score club favor, a pretty vanity set, was won by Mrs. Scott Key, while the guest prize was won by Mrs. Jack Abraugo, a hand embroidered guest towel. Mrs. John McCarthy cut consolation, a dainty handkerchief.

Miss Elma Gillis was presented a beautiful pair of silk hose. The hostess was assisted by Mrs. Waite in serving a delicious plate luncheon to Mesdames: Scott Key, Henry Blakeman, William Jones, Jimmie Green, Dennis Mann, Ed Shamblin, Everett McCoy, Warren Kelly, Chas. Gibbs, Sidney Pugh, W. J.

Most people have heard of the kidneys and liver, but they know naught of the importance of these masses of cells and connective tissue fibers. Nature has wisely protected them by locating them beneath bony structures, and injury through external insult is comparatively rare. Unfortunately these organs are exposed to damage from internal agencies. Again overwork and toxic substances are the main causes dge oration and decay.

The decisive victory for Sanders is disclosed in the totals which read as follows: Sanders G4; Broussard 4 GO, or a majority for Sanders of 198. Even in the three wards in which Broussard secured a majority of the commissioners, the gains were negligible.

These were in the First, Third and Fourth Wards where the result stood as follows: First Ward, Sanders 20; Broussard 25; Third Ward, Sanders 56, Broussard 59 Fourth Ward, Sanders 24, Broussard 26. The emptiness of the Broussard showing in the First and Fourth Wards wi, be mQTS TeadUv under. stood when it is remembered that these two wards since time out of mind have been marching at the head of the "Regular Organization with disciplined regularity and the result in each is discounted in ad vance by Mayor CTKeefe and the Choctaws as absolutely certain, In the Third Ward John gul. livan is fighting under the Brous. sard banner to retain his own leadership in the ward, Broussard with him being a secondary consideration.

Sullivan offered to sur render all upon the altar of reg- ularity and return to the fold, if the Choctaws would allow him to retain a one-half vote in their councils. They sternly refused, telling him his surrender must be unconditional and complete. Them, after having raised the milk whit? flag and having been scorned, he attempted to raise his. erstwhile followers to battle. The Regulars held that a flag of truce, raised at the beginning of a fight is no more of an 4 inspiration in political battle than in actual war, 'and they have no fear about wht is going to happen in 'the Ward in this contest.

But the principal benefit that the banders forces derive from this decisive victory is the fact that having such a preponderance of a commissioners is an emphatic an Broussard workers that "Sanders wU1 be knifed at tne Plls" With Sanders men on guard and in con- trol, the Broussard emmissarics will now have to find some other ex- cuse when they go gum-shoeinjr in the parishes to spread "confiden- tial" reports about the treachery of the Regular Organization Jl 1 BRIDGE Mrs. M.

Failure to score 90 per cent will be construed as meaning this State is indifferent to its best asset, its people, since it does not keep an adequate up-to-date count of its increase or decrease and of the causes effecting these vicissitudes. It will put our community, so far as this important matter is concerned, in the same class with those businesses whjich are conducting themselves without knowing or caring how they stand or whither they are going. It will fasten on the State the public lack of confidence and the censure which are always visited on such businesses.

The scores are sup plied by a Western Union ticker installed in the passenger traffic department at St. Louis and are wired twice daily from St. Louis, the first at 3 p. and the final score when the games are finish ed.
