If You Have, the Statement Of This
Paris Resident Will interest You.

Does your back ache, night and day !;
Hinder work; destroy your rest?
Does it stab you through and through
When you stoop or lift or bend?
Then your kidneys may be weak.
Often backache is the clue.
Just to give you further proof,
The kidney action may be wrong.
If attention is not paid
More distress will soon appear.
Headache, dizzy spells and nerves,
Uric acid and its Ills
Make the burden worse and worse
Liniments and plasters can't
Reach the kidneys-use the pills
Paris folks have tried and proved.
What they say you can believe.
Read this Paris woman's account.
See her, ask her, if you doubt.
Mrs. J. c. Feltmann, South Pleasant
street, Paris, says: "A few years ago,
was suffering with kidney complaint
My back was the worst source of pain
and ached dreadfully. | found it diff
cult to bend or stoop. | had oftel
read about Doan's Kidney Pills and
used a box. They cured me of the at
tack. Whenever | have had any re
turn symptoms, | have used Doan's
Kidney Pills, procured from Oberdor
fer's Drug Store and have received
the same good results"
Price so cents, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for kidney relnedy-ge;
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that
Mrs. Feltmann had. Foster-Milburr

Good spelling is a valuable habit,

REV. FARMER HAS
TWO SPLENDID DAYS
Missionary Meetings Held at Jas
per and WhitWeII,

Rev. w. D. Farmer, pastor ID.
E. Church. South. at Jasper. drove
over to this city Tuesday after
noon with his family in their new
and handsome car, which Brother
Farmer has learned to operate
like an old hand at the business.
He discussed his work at Jasper
and Whitwell while in conversa-
ton with the pencil pusher, and a
thing which caused him a great
deal of delight is the two mission
airy meetings held with his people
at Jasper and Whitwell of late,
when on Sunday, January 21st,
the Jasper Church raised a sum
of $10O.60, and on the following
Sunday, at Whitwell, in similar
meeting the sum of $4,000 was
raised. Rev. Farmer is great
advocate of missions, home, for
eign and every other kind, and
takes great delight in pushing the
good work. Since going to JAS
per he has done a great work
among the good people of that
city who seem to cooperate with
him readily in every undertaking.
He is a splendid preacher, and
since he has met with such sue
cess in his labors, we rather think
the people of the two churches
will be slow to give him up.
Rev. Farmer, having just pur-
chased a Ford car, was taking hi
friend, Registrar X. D. Curtis,
out for drive the other after
noon when a wheel of his buggy
ran off. Being a considerable
ways from Jasper, and having no
way to communicate with the
trouble man, Rev. Farmer rolled
up his sleeves and went to it, and
in less time than it would take
some old heads to perform the
operation" he had the wheel on
in fine shape and speeding back
toward town. He says that he
is now firmly convinced that the
less one knows about his machine
the better off he is.-So. Pitts

Recommends Girl Team

The Jasper, or rather Marion
County High School, first five,
was rather easy money for oul
second basket ball team on the 10.
cal court here on last Friday night.
Shame on you, boys. You should
not have taken it. The score was
"a to Is in favor of the locals.
A second game was to have
been played Saturday just before
the evening train, but the visitors
allowed that the locals just want
ed to rub it in, ;" and hence they
boarded the first train out Satur-
day morning for home.
Boys, being that you have tried
the first and second teams, we
would recommend that you try
our girl team possiblythey would
MT be so rough or greedy for
scores. Dunlap Tribune.

A terrific wind storm, accom-
