WOMAN'S WOES.
Brookings Women Are Finding Relief
At Last.

1T does seem that women have more
than a fair share of the aches and
pains that afiict humanity: they must
keep up must attend to duties in
spite of constantly aching backs or
headaches, dizzy spells, bearing-down
pains; they must stoop over, when to
stoOp means torture. They must walk
and bend and work with racking pains
and many aches from kidney ills.
Kidneys cause more suffering than
any other organ Of the body. Keep
the kidneys well and health is easily
Read of a remedy for
kidneys only that helps and cures the
kidneys and is endorsed by people you
know.
Mrs. Jennie Tewsbury. living in
the southern part of BrOokings, S. d..
says: Il met with an accident sever
al years age and seriously injured my
back and kidneys. This mishaps led
to years of suffering. | was subject
to spells of dizziness and headaches
and at times could hardly stand.
was weak and nervous but hardest
of all the troubles to bear was the
.incessant aching in the small of my
back. | finally learned of Doan's
Kidney Pills and how they were cur
ing others and decided to try them,
procuring a box at Villas drug store.
I obtained wonderful relief from this
remedy. The dizzy spells ceased and
| felt much better in every way. !
am glad to recommend Doan's Kidney
Pills"

is paying especial attention to those
few names that are back of October

when he calls. Mr.. Phillips is work.
ing in the vicinity of Glover, West

Many seem to think the Monitor
agent is paid on a commission. He is
not, and you will save us nothing by
waiting till you come to the Office. He
is paid salary and gets just the same
whether he collects 81 or $100. In fact
it makes US less work if you pay him.

day by score of 5 to l. Every man
is likely to have his off days and this
is the first this season for Bishop, who
was hit hard for four innings. Wilder
replaced Jack in the 5th and held the
visitors to three hits the remainder of
the game. Find tabulated score below.
To-day and tomorrow Barton again
plays Woodstock in the championship
of the state games, Barton is not max
ing any claims to the championship un-
til the close of the season and will
make none unless able to win a ma
jority of games from Woodstock. as
we'll as from local teams. Barton
however insists that any team to be
out for the championship should play
regular men, who are playing regular
ly with one team, and not against men
who are picked up for single games.
We are not very fussy and we are in
tending no slurs of any kind in this
item.
Friday, regatta day, Barton will
play Newport in the morning at 10
o'clock, do not imagine that this game
will not be worth your patronage as
it certainly will. Newport has very
fast team and will make us go hard to
win. Take the whole day off and see
the game as we'll as the races.
