ills, should find comforting words In the
following statement Ask your neighbor.
Mrs. J. C. Kennedy, 107 W. Eighth St.,
Tifton, gave the following statement
April, 1008: “For a long time my back
troubled me so that I could hardly get
around. I had a constant, dull, nagging
backache, and sharp pains through my
loins., I couldn’t rest nights und morn
ings I suffered from headaches, and tired,
languid feelings. I had no strength oi
ambition to do my work and my kidneys
were weak and irregular.. They caused
me annoyance in many ways. I finally
bought Doan’s Kidney Pills at Mills’
Drug Store and used them as directed,
They entirely rid me of the backaches and
kidney trouble and all the other ail
ments disappeared. I am better now than
I have been in some time, and give the
whole credit to Doan’s Kidney Pills.”
On March 12, 1018, Mrs. Kennedy ad
ded : “Doan’s Kidny Pills cured me some
time ago and I haven't had a sign of
kiducy complaint since. I always
commend Doan’s for I know their great
value, as a kidney medicine.'

Well, 1 was down to Mr. David
<>n .the 7th to dinner. A family reunion.
Several of the Lukes were absent on ac
count of sickness in the family. It -was
the'intention to have all of the brothers
and slstera and their families in the
grand reunion of the Luke family..
Well, there was about 75 of the Lukea
aud friends and neighbors, and Mr. and
Mra. Luke furnished dinner fo r the crowd
with all of the nice things aplenty and
aome left We hope they will live long
and enjoy life.
They also bad an all-day sing and
preaching by Mr, Hopson. He bolds that
all organlzera are synagogue! of the devil,
and the preacher* are blind leaden of
the blind. Well, Webster’s dictionary
aajra that a synagogue ia a congregation
of Jews met for worship—a house ap
propriated to the wonhip of the Jews—
and Webster says a church ia a house
dedicated or consecrated to the worshi>>
of God, a particular denomination of
Christians. So w e see that Webster’s
definition does not concur with Mr Hop
son’s assertions.
