Keep The Kidneys Well
Health is Worth Saving, and
Some OpelOusas People Know
How to- Save It.

Health is worm SAVING ana
Some Opel0usas People Know
How to Save Tt.
Many 0pelousas people take their
lives in their hands by neg1ecting the
kidneys when they know these organs
need help. Sick kidneys are response
bic for a vast amount of suffering
and i'll health, but there is no need to
suffer nor to remain in danger when
all diseases and aches and pains due
to weak kidneys can be quickly and
permanently cured by the use of Daon's
Kidney Pills. Here is an Opelousas
citizens recommendation.
L. ]. Marx, Landry ST., 0pelousas,
La, says: For years | was subject
to attacks Of backache and sharp
twings across my kidneys, which al
most prevented me from getting
about. / really do not think the mis-
cry could have been greater if my
kidneys had been clutched in a vice.
Last.spring when having an attack, /
read of Doan's Kidney Pills and pro-
cured a box at Shute's Drug Store.
In a short time after their use was
began they relieved the pains, and It
required less than the contents of
one box to completely cure me-"

Mrs. Carl Upton Dead
Packed in regular package, ana IN
hermetieally sealed tins.

Our community experienced sad
loss on Wednesday June Is, when
the death ange! visited the home of
Carl Upton and took from him his
dear wife. Mrs, Upton was true
christian and was loved by all who
knew her. All that loving hands
and medical aid could do was done,
but to no avail. She has finished
her work on earth and has gone to
wear a beautiful crown in heaven.
Weep not loved ones for she has
gone to join her mother in that
home not made with hands.
Mrs. Upton was just in the prime
of life which makes it much sadder
to part with her. She was great
aid to the country and a shining
light to her home. She was laid to
rest Thursday, host of sorrowine
friends and relatives being present.

from Mr.. Cole

To the citizens of Randolph County;
Friends and Fellow Citizens:
| had decided not to make the
race for sheriff this time, but the
people are inducing me 30 hard to
run, and threatening to "set down.
on me forever if | don't run. /
am compelled to make the race
this time or step down and out of
politics forever. / have offered
everything that was fair to keep
from having to run this time and
my propositions have been ignored.
So there is nothing left for me to
do but leave it to the people to set
tie at the polls in September, and |
am only too glad to do it.
Gentlemen, | assure you that !
will abide by your decision as hum
bly, as any boy could. When |
was turned down two years ago, |
did not camplain, but toiled on,
farming and barely making a living
while my victorcrowned opponent
has held the sheriff's Office, and at
the end of his term will have drawn
seven or eight thousand dollars.
| think that is good start for one
man, don't you? DO you believe it
is right to pension one man to the
exclusion of all others? | don't be.

give me square deal, as you would
have me give you. ! carried my

To You who are not personally ac.
quainted With me, will ask YOU
as friend to investigate my repu.
tation closely. Come to my home
and ask those who have known me
all of my life. ! don't want you to
support me because my father died
when | was an infant. ! don't
want your support just because /
have no brothers nor sisters to help
push my candidacy. l don't want
yon to vote for me because | am
poor man. But if you think lam
honest and qualified and if you
think time about is fair and if you
think | will recognize you on the
street when | meet you, then boys
give me your vote and influence and
| will prove to your satisfaction
that | possess all these qualities.
Hoping to see you all before the
election and asking you to give my
candidacy just consideration, and
thanking you in advance for any
help you may give me, | am
Yours truly,
