A Song for Vacation
By Frank Demps,er Sherman

By Frank DempSter Sherman
School is overl Now away
For a summer holiday,
Where the only book is one
Written by the genial sun,
Leaves and flowers and grass for words,
And for music, brooks and birds!
Full of beauty, wisdom, truth,
What book it is for youth!
School is over! Now delight
Is the only task in sight:
Fun and frolic all day long,
Making life a merry song;
Every valley plain and hill
Yours to wander where you will
Happy girl and happy boy,
Take your fill of mirth and joy!
School is overl Even SO,
Back again we all must go;
Old and young, it matters not,
We have still to learn lot
Lies great lessons yet remain
If we would not live in vain
So, little play and rest,
Then to school and do our bestl

For the Public Benefit.

A truthful statement of Johnson
City citizen, given in his own words,
should convince the most skeptical
about the merits OF Doan's Kidney
Pills. II you suffer from backache,
nervousness, sleeplessness, urinary dis
orders, or any form of kidney ills, the
cure is at hand. Read this:
L. s. Jones, electrician, 20 years a
resident of Johnson City, now living
on King street, says: "My belief in
Doan's Kidney Pills as remedy Of
rare virtue was based upon personal
experience. They were used by myself
and wife for backache and other results
of kidney disorders with the utmost
benefit. / have bought them frequent
ly at the store Of the Patton Drug Co. I,
and do not hesitate to recommend
them as worthy of trial by all suffer
ers from backache and other kidney
troubles, for / know that they can be

Is Prohibition q Success.

We leave this for the people of the
localities interested to decide, while
we will try to induce those who use it
for sickness or for family use in any
way, to use pure whiskey. The kind
that does the least harm and the most
good. We don't suppose there ever
was or will be person but who would
want pure whiskey if he could get it,
and yet, the impure article has been
sold so much and claims so often made
that it was pure that some people do
not know the taste or qualifications of
the genuine article.
Convenience again causes some to
be careless in ordering their whiskey.
They either imagine they wifi not get
their orders filled promptly or that we
are too far away to give their orders
the attention they should have. Still
another wrong impression, as we de-
liver goods in the south as promptly
as to local points, and we make spec
ialty OF shipping all orders promptly
on the first train.
During the last three months we have
endeavored to give the readers Of this
paper few facts concerning whiskey,
to guide them in its use and buying.
We have already received magnificent
results, and are particularly pleased
with our part of the advertising, and
should there be anyone who would
like for us to 60 more into details, we
will give them all the information they
desire if they will write us.
Let us send you our order blanks
and instructions. Give Premier Pure
q trial, and even though you are the
poorest judge of whiskey you will ex-
perience no trouble in telling the diff
ference in our goods and others. Write
