For II Months Ending Sept. l

A. F. Potter, chief of the Fire De-
partment, submits his report to the
mayor and commissioners for the year
ending September 1. AS 1t contains
some interesting figures as well as
good suggestions relative to fire pro-
lection, the report is published in full
as follows:
To the Honorable Mayor and Com.
missioners,
City of Hattiesburg, Miss,
| here beg to make my report of the
Hattiesburg Fire Department for the
past twelve months, September 1911
to September 1912.
To the amount Of fires and losses
your fire department has answered
1O7 calls, there has been several fires
that gained quite a Roadway before
your department was called, but we
have never had a fire in the last
twelve months to go from one build
ing to the other, the fires have been
confined to the building they start
ed in.
Six false alarms, fourteen alarms

outside of water limits. five grass
fires. one alarm at Newman's mill
outside of the city limits and one call
to w. s. F. Tatum's mill at Bonhomie
were answered. We have laid 49,.
900 feet Of 2 IL IN hose, and laid
1900 feet Of chemical hose and used
1856 gallons of chemical In both
large and small chemical apparatus.
Our losses, as near as we have been
able to estimate inside of the water
limit is $19,292,00. the amount of
buildings and contents protected by
your fire department, as near as I
have been able to estimate is $771,
$4,000. The majority Of fires have
been caused by defective stove flues.
This city should have a first-class
stove flue ordinance, whereby defec-
tive flues could be condemned. Also
a first-class ordinance governing fire
places, ash pits, automobile garages,
pressing clubs, storage of oil collect
ing trash, paper, straw, ETC., would be
Of great benefit to the city of Hat
tiesburg.
Quite few of our fires have been
in vacant buildings, and I would sug-
gest that all vacant buildings should
be kept securely locked, while va
cant, and windows fastened down.
| wish to tank the city officers
for the interest they have taken in
the fire department, and also the
members of the fire department for
the service they have rendered to
the fire department, which was first
class in every respect in performing
their respective duties.

burg Fire Department.

CHILDREN'S KIDNEYS
No Hattiesburg Mother Should Neglect
The Little Ones Health.

Oftentimes weak kidneys cause
great annoyance and embarrassment
to children. Inability to control the
kidney secretions, at night or while
at play, is attributed to carelessness
and too frequently the child is pun
ished. Parents having children
do well to treat the kidneys with a
tested and proven kidney remedy. If
there is pain in the back, discolored
urine. irregular urination, headaches,
dizzy spells or a tired, worn-out-feel-
ing, try Doan's Kidney Pills at once.
A remedy that has been used in kid
ney troubles for over so years and
has been recommended by thousands.
Proof of merit in Hattiesburg citi-
zen's statement.
Mrs. P. Maddocks, 457 Newman St.,
Hattiesburg, Miss, says: ''Several
members Of my family have taken
Doan's Kidney Pills and in every in
stance this remedy has done good
work. I gave Doan's Kidney Pills to
my little girl who had a weak back
and kidneys and benefit was received
This remedy has also relieved other
members of my family of backache
and other difficulties caused by the
kidneys. Send anyone to me who is
seeking proof of the merits of Doans

the liver on to perform its work at the
cost of its strength.
Calomel depends for its power upon
exciting the liver to do more work,
and often the liver is too weak to
stand such treatment, and you are
worse of than before.

BLAMES MODERN FICTION
FOR INCREASING DIVORCES.
Felix Adler Says II Causes Us Lightly
to Regard Serious Problems.

Because there are so many millions
of homes in this country, Professor
Felix Adler believes today that 100000
divorces in year do not mean that
the home is being disrupted.
He does not believe either that the
divorces are the result of immortality.
for, he said, that in Bavaria, where
there were no divorces, there was much
immortality
at is certain state of mind which
is the cause of the increase Of di-
vorce." he said, "and it is very largely
due to the desire of women to throw
off all yokes and assert their indie
ppndcnce. 1t is this which makes many
women desire an experimental or trial
marriage"
He said that Ellen Key and women
Of her type We're responsible for much
of the unrest among women and that

tion. learned to think of life less Sc
riously than they should. He had much

Married life is n triangle" he said,
the husband and wife and the chill
drcn. hut the father and mother are
too apt 70 ask whether they can agree
to live together instead of considering
what their duty is to their offspring.
They separate and leave their children
to the care of the state.
zone great modern heresy is that the
state can take care of the child. We
talk in an ofrhand way Of great public
asylums for the care of children. Much
is said about what scientific experts
can do with children hut while it is
true that parents cannot take the
place of scientific experts, the latter
cannot take the parents place"
