Florence hotel, and Mr. Bam-
le-rg had .1 check cashed for Corbett

Mr. Hamburg notices that the two
men were out for a good time and he
rather expected Corbett to bo rob-

Corbett had better leave most of his
money in the safe at the hotel, but
Oorbotr Insisted that he was able to
take care of himself and his money.

THANKFUL PEOPLE.
They are Found in Every Part of
Valdosta.
Many citizens of Valdosta have good
reason to be thankful tor burden, lifted
from aching backs, which they bore
patiently for ’ears Scores toll* about
their experience publicly. Here’s a case
of it:
Mrs. S. H. Harvard, of 203 Hill Ave.,
Valdosta, Ga., says: “I think that Do
an’s Kidney Pills arc the very best kid
ney remedy on the market, I used them
for backache and never had anything to
do me so much good, although I tried
various remedies. My back lias given
me a great deal of trouble as I have suf
fered from dull aching pains across the
small of my back and through the region
of the kiduets. If I sat in one position
for any length of time 1 could hardly get
-in nnd during the night I would be un-
ible to sleeo. A friend advised me to
get Doan’s Kidney Pills at A. E. Dim-
mock’s drug store and I followed the ad-
vice. • The result was better than I an
ticipated. I soon noticed an improve
ment and finally the trouble was entire
ly removed and I have not had a touch
of it since. I sleep well at night, and
feel better in every way Doan’s Pills
oertainly have my endorsement.”
