Public Thanks.

We thank most sincerely the
good, and sympathetic friends who
did so much to aid us 10 the loss
we have sustained by the burning
of our home. We especially thank
the young ladies and young men,
from the Port Gibson Girls Col.
lege, for the splendid service they
rendered. Also the kind and gen
erous assistance in rescue work
done by our good colored people.
We can never tell how greatly We
value and appreciate the aid so
actively given by all of our city's
people; and will always have a
warm place in our hearts for them.
May they never have to endure the
sight of a home enveloped in
flames.

STEADFASI CONFIDENCE.
The Following Statement Should
Form Conclusive Proof of Merit
to Every Port Gibson
Reader.

Could stronger proof of the merit
of any product be desired than the
statements of grateful endOrsers
who say their confidence has been
undiminished by lapse of time
These are the kind of statements
that are appearing In your local
papers for Doan's Kidney Pills.
They are twice told and confirmed
with new enthusiasm. Can any
reader doubt the following It's
from a resident of Vicksburg.
Mrs. NJ. A. Wood. 523 N. Farm
er ST.. Vicksburg says: my back
was so lame and painful at times I
couldn't stoop over to put on my
shoes. My kidneys acted irregu-
larly and bladder disorders were
distressing. I began using Doan's
Kidney Pills and they relieved me
of all the suffering with my back
and kidneys. l soon felt stronger
and better than had in a long
time"
