"I have received so many beautiful
cards, flowers and other tokens of
kind regard from my friends, both
men and women, young folks and old,
that it is Impossible for me to thank
eauh one individually; consequently,
I take this method of expressing my
heartfelt gratitude to all. The
thoughtful and generous manifesta
tions of sympathy for me in the long
and wearisome illness from which I
am suffering, have touched my heart
to its depths and cheered me in mv
affliction. I fervently thank God for
giving me such friends. Never can
jl forget them nor cease to feel the
deepest gratitude for their many
kindnesses, God bless you all! is my
prayer. JOHN R. RASCH."

health has been fine ever since and
I owe it aU to Doan's Kidney Pills."

Roses at Christmas.
The fact that we can get Mowers out
f doors at Christmas time Is In Itself
a sufficient Justification for growing
the Christmas rose, but besides that
It Is worth growing for itself, says
Country Life in Amerlcn. Its large
white flowers, fully two Inches across,
resembling those of a glnnt single
rose, although as a matter of fact it
belongs to the same family as the but
tercups, never fail to excite enthusi
asm In the season of snow and Ice.
The plant Itself grows only six to
eight Inches high, and the large,
greenish-white flowers are borne in
clusters and nestle closely among the
dark green leaves.

o
Editor Punta Gorda Herald :-
Dear Sir: While I have not the
pleasure of your acquaintance, I
knew Mr. Adrian P. Jordan and his
son very well. I understand that
both are still actively connected with
the publication of the Punta Gorda
Herald.
It will be fifteen years next Sun
day since I first appeared in the
pulpit of the Presbyterian churorh of
that village of sunshine, oranges.
pineapples, many other good thinirs.
and delightful people. How I wish I
were there now.
In thinking of the days gone bv
when I resided in Punta Gorda. I
have written these lines, and if you
niUI II lit ing to rlo SO vnn mav
publish them with my Christmas
greetings to the splendid people of
Punta Gorda.
I "Wish you merry Christmas"
and "HanDy New Year." with npvur
a sorrow ana never a tear, a year
full of gladness, of supremest joy,
one round of enjoyment with naught
to annoy.
This end, fellow Christian, you
surely will gain, by trusting com
pletely in Christ Jesus' name for all
that is needed for making life bright,
for filling your heart with angelic de
light.
The sweet voice of angels, at
Uethlehem heard, that gladdened the
shepherds, their saintly hearts stir
red, you also may hear as you read
in the Word the song which they
sang at the birth of the Lord.
There is joy for you ever in serv
ing the King; 'tis happiness ever with
angels to sing. The world opens
wide in glad service for you, with the
pearl'd gates of heaven each day in
f ull view. .
Then bravely go forward Into the
new year, with never a dread and
with never a fear, go trusting in Him
WHY Sl'FFKH SO?
Why suffer from a bad back, from
sharp, shooting twinges, headaches,
dizziness and distressing urinary ills?
Punta Gorda people recommend
Doan's Kidney Pills. Could you ask
for stronger proof of merit?
Mrs. W. H. Walters, Goldstein St.,
Punta Gorda, says: "A few years ago
I began taking Doan's Kidney Pills
for a severe case of kidney complaint
and they gave me great relief. . My
kidneys pained terribly and made it
hard for me to straighten up. My
kidneys didn't act as they should and
caused me a lot of misery. I suf
fered untold misery off and on for
