NEWS -■ ■ - ■= OF INTEREST IN THE = SOCIAL REALM 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 Home testimony is r. al proof. Public s 1 atements of Jackson pc >, le carry leal weight. VVha a friend or neighbor says com p Is respi ct. 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., Props., Buffalo, N. Y. adv. INSPECT BUILDINGS AT 6RIFFIN FAIR GROUNDS Messrs. J.
