THE LONG ROAD
We are women together—my mother
and me,
With our eyes on the dull gray past,
And the pain she knows is the pain I
see,
For our ways are one at last.
Oh, the roads were T ough and the
sharp winds tore
As she battled fiercely ahead;
And my brain grew sick and my heart
grew sore,
But I followed her whither she led.
For a mother’s cry is a daughter’s cry,
And the road is the same hard load,
And the mother’s lag and the daugh
ters fly
Till they meet on the flint-strewn
road.
It was sweet to rush to her yielding
breast
But it’s better to clutch her hand,
And we know our love is the love that’s
best —
For both of us understand.
—Jane Burr.

JACKSON EVIDENCE
FOR JACKSON PEOPLE
The Statement of Jackson
Residents are Surely
More Reliable Than
Those of Utter
Strangers

Public s 1 atements of Jackson pc >, le

The word of on ■ whos*> home is far
away inviti-s y n r doubts.
Here’s a Jackson man’s statement.
And it’s for Jackson people’s benefit.
Buch ovidence is convincing.
That’s the kind of proof that backs
Doan's Kidney Pills.
I. H. Miller, Pastor of Presbyterian
church, Mulberry st., Jackson, says:
“1 was almost down with m.v back
and suffered severely, especially in the
morning. 1 had other symptom* of
kidney trouble. I used Doan’s Kidney
Pills and they relieved the pains in my
back and the other symptoms of kid
ney trouble went away. 1 usually keep
Doan’s Kidney Pills on hand and
when my kidneys annoy me, they nev
er fail to give relief.”
Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t sim
ply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same tliut
Mr. Miller had. Foster Milburn Cos.,
