EVENING TRAIN TAKEN Off
Will Run as Far as Lawton to
Connect with M. @. and Then
Turn Back to Paw Paw.

A slight change in the train schedule
of the Fruit Belt line went into effect
last Monday. The east bound train
which left Paw Paw for Kalamazoo at
6;05 p. M. ard returning to Paw Paw
at SIT, has been discontinued from
Lawton to Kalamazoo and return.
This train was run to provide through
service for boat passengers. The boat
line schedule has been changed and now
has but four boats week from Chicago
and they arrive in South Haven in the
morning, so there is at present no need
for the evening train. 1t will be run to
Lawton however, to accommodate pas
sengers going east on the Michigan
Central at 6:l9 p. M.

Can't be Separated.

Sons Brownsville People Have Learn
ed How to Get Rid of Both
Backache and kidney ache are twin
brothers.
You can't separate them.
And you can't get rid of the backache
until you cure the kidney ache.
If the kidneys are well and strong,
the rest of the system is pretty sure to
be in vigorous health
Doan's Kidney Pills make strong,
healthy kidneys
Mrs J. T. Bowman, of 322 Sherman
street, San Antonio, Texas, says: Il
feel that 1 cannot praise Doan's Kidney
Pills too highly after my experience
with them. / have been sufferer
from kieney disease for a long time,
and it seemed as if nothing would bring
ME relief. The kidney action was much
too free and 1 was subject to severe
headaches. l had frequent chills and
was often very dizzy. 1 was rapidly
losing strength when l got box of
Doan's Kidney Pills. 1 was greatly
pleased with the result, as l am now i'll
better health than l have been for some
time. no longer have headaches, the

Monroe City Democrat. (Monroe City, Mo.) 1888-1919, 1908-12-10
Many Changes in 10 wer House.

Nhahy NhahkSs III Lo Wei AVuSc'
Jefferson City, Mo-, Dec. 3.-There
will be many new fac ,es in the low
er branch Of the gen eral assembly
when it convenes h ere January 6.
Of its to tai members hip of 142, on
ly forty'-seven serv ed in the last
house, and of these. twenty are re-
publicaIls and tW enty-seven are
democra is. These f Ety-seven men,
bers are not the only ones in the
houses membership who have pre-
viously represente d their counties.
but they are the only ones who
were in the session of 1907. In that
session tn ere were eighty-two dem
ocrats ano! sixty republicans, just
reversing the figures of the 1905
assembly In the coming house
there will be seventy-three republi-
cans and sixty-nine democrats, Civ
ing the republicans a majority of
four.
Something like one-fourth the
counties in the state made changes
in the political complexion of their
members. St. Lotlis city made no
change, its sixteen members being
then made up Of thirteen republi-
cans and the democrats, neither
party gaining III its representation.
Kansas City. which includes Jack
son county, did not do so well by
the republicans. In the 1907 as
sembly its delegation was evenly
divided. three and three. At the
next session it will have six demo-
cratic memb ers, all the republican
candidates having been defeated.
Jasper county lost one of its three
republican members, and will have
one democrat in its next delegation.
1t is in the country counties
though, in which the changes were
the more numerous. There are
twenty-one of these, independent of
the changes which have already
been more pointed out, which had
democrats in the house in 1907
from which republicans come as
representatives for the 1909 assem-
bly. These counties are: Carroll,
Cedar, Cooper, Crawford, Davies,
DeKalk, Holt, Jefferson, Knox, La
clede, Lafayette, Lawrence, Living
ston, Mcdonald, Madison, Miller,
Pettis. Phelps, St. Francois, Sulli-
van and Webster.
There are four counties which
elected republicans two years ago
in which democrats were chosen
this time. These counties are Barry,
Linn, Montgomery and Wayne
Numerous as these changes are, the
republicans have only a majority
of four in the house, but it is a big
gain over two years ago. when the
democratic majority was twenty
two.
