OUR EXCELLENT BAND.

Did you all attend the fine
band concert last Wednesday
evening, beginning at eight
o'clock2 1t seems to me that
everybody who had car, crowded
it with their best friends and
filled both sides of the square IN
front Of the Court House as close
as could be. Those whose ears
were in the garage, trotted down
on shanks' poneys and formed a
standing committee, or sat on
their thumb, until more room
would come. But when the
music began, everybody who had
any music in their soul made a
VOW. not to miss another of those
rare treats. The best gift that
our little town has received yet
through the Chamber Of Com
merce appealing to our talented
musical townsman.
Prof. Arnandez, who has been
t.ne leader of our very best bands
zways. He is such a thorough
musician, that while he instructs
the new members he inspires them
with his enthusiasm, and express
sion. l learned from some young
friends, living many miles out of
town, that they never miss band
concert, considering them a rare
treat Music speaks in distinct
language. Some of it, cultivating
and uplifting. Some sad to say
of very different order tangling
the brain into an irresponsible
twist. But our fine tband wont
waste their talents on that kind
of stuff. Just at present our
band is in demand for 4th of July
celebration. They play in Frank
lin ! believe. No doubt many of
our people will go to hear them,
and when they play Star Spangled
Banner, New Iberia will join in.
On last Wednesday evening, the
program was especially attractive,
containing selection from the
~ and old opera Norma, the
! srmony was perfect throughout,

Do the right thing at the right
time.
Act quickly in time of danger.
In time of kidney danger,
Doan s Kidney Pills are most eff
fective.
Plenty of New Iberia evidence
of their worth.
J. NJ. Cothran, railroad engi-
neer. 4l2 w. Main ST., New Ibe-
ria, says: 81 was annoyed by a
heavy ache across the small of my
back and when I was on my feet
any length of time, sharp pains
went through me. My kidneys
were in weak condition and the
secretions appeared unnatural. I
began to use DOan's Kidney Pills
and they brought me relief from
the start. Continued use entirely
cured me Of the aching in my
back, the sharp pains disappeared
and my kidneys acted regularly
again. Since that time, / have
had no return Of the trouble. "
