UNSHAkEN TESTIMONY

Time is the test of truth. And
Doan's Kidney Pills have stood the
test in New iberia. No New Iberia
resident who suffers backache, OIL
annoying urinary ills can remain
unconvinced by this twice-told tes-
timony.
Edgar j. Bourg, meat dealer, 63z
Julia ST., New Iberia, says: Il
was confined to bed several times
with kidney complaint. Sometimes
l could hardly turn over in bed
owing to the pains in my back and
had to be careful Or sharp twinges
would dart through my loins
Mornings,I was stiff and lame and
lacked strength and energy. One
box of Doan's Kidney Pills remov-
ed the trouble"
OVERR FIVE YEARS LATER,
Mr.. Bourg said: 81 haven't had an
attack Of kidney trouble since
Doan's Kidney Pills cured me-
Price soc, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills--the same
that Mr.. Bourg has twice publicly
recommended. Foster-Milburn Co.

According to ellison Gardner
there is enough Idle land held on,
of use by spectators to give each,
man woman and child in the
United States three and one half
acres. He says:
There are approximately $780,.
goo, 900 acres Of idle land in the
United States farms according ia
census figures, those taken in
1910.
Less than three fifths of the
land in farms is improved. IL
1910 a little over half the land in
farms 10 the q. s. was improved

of S7S, 1883 acres.

last Friday, Miss Ethel B. Rodgers
being the efficient teacher. Several
patrons and friends called in the af-

pupils shown while they were busily
engaged in ciphering match, which
was very interesting and much en-
joyed by all. However, owning to the
inclement weather, there were not as
many in attendance as would have
been had the weather not been so. Ev-
en- the elderly folks showed their in
terest by lending a helping hand in
ciphering, as well as giving excellent
talks, complimenting the work done
the past term of school along the line
of advancement of the pupils, which
speaks well for Miss Rodgers as an
instructor. Certificates of perfect at
tendance were awarded Perry Haney
and Miss Gladys Daineley.
