Don't wait longer - take Doan's Kidney Pills.
 Residents of this vicinity en- dorse them.
 Can Brinkley people doubt the following evidence? Mrs. J. H. Plumlee, Clarendon, Ark, says: T had a dull, heavy ache over my kidneys. My back seemed to hurt me at night and in the morning 1 felt stiff and lame and wasn't rested. I had severe dizzy spells and my sight blurred. My kidneys acted ir- regularly and the swelling in my ankles also warned me that had kidney trouble. I used Doan's Kidney Pills and my back is now stronger and my kidneys act as they should"
 Price soc. at all dealers. Dom t simply ask for kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills the same that Mrs. Plumlee had. Foster -Milburn Co., Props, Buf- falo, N. Y.

 On March 8th l read Mir. Old fields article in the Newport Independence o f March 3rd, denying that he had gambled in cotton futures, and denying other charges made against him in this campaign.
 Knowing that the charges against Mir. Oldfeld were true, and that his denials were false 1 felt it my duty to give the facts about the matter to the people concerned, viz: his con- stituents.
 And I desired to do this Tn MT. Oldfeld's presence.
 Therefore, on March 8th, at which time we were both in Washington, l sent to Mr. Old field a written challenge, which he received, to meet me al Batesville or Mammoth Springs, the former his home, the latter mine, and stated therein that would prove the truth of the charges which he had denied.
 On March 10th 1 left Washing ton, prepared to meet MT, Old. field at either of the places named.

A Valuable Food Crop.
By Wm. Spencer

I want everybody in Monroe county who makes a garden this year to try a little patch of kale.
 | discovered" kale since l came to Colorado and l unhesl- tatingly pronounce it the finest greens" l have ever eaten.
 Unless the people have changed greatly since 1 lived in Monroe county, everybody likes greens.
 The culture is the same as for cabbage or collards. A few seeds may be planted in hills in the garden where it is wished to grow, or it may be planted in house boxes or hot bed and transplanted the same as cab bage. It is best after frost has touched it, and therefore it is not necessary to start in the South before the first or middle of April and can then be planted in the open ground. The leaves are cooked the same as collards or turnip greens, and are much better than either. The plants will stand in the open all winter and in the South will need no protection. In the spring, long before other vegetation starts,
 the old stalks of the kale will send out new and tender shoots

s. I. A. Notes

The regular meeting of the s. I. A. was held at 3 p. m. on Friday March 10th. We were pleased to note the presence ot several of our old and valued members as well as the usual contingent of active members. Mrs. J. D. Henley who so re- gently came here, evinced the proper community spirit by en- rolling as new member.
 The joint report made by Prof. Baumgartner and the Committee of the s. I. A. showed a liberal response on the part of the friends and patrons of the school to the appeal for funds to defray the expenses of the school for two weeks, The nine months of school had already been de- cided on by our principal and It become a question only as to whether or not the teachers re- ceiye the salary to which they are entitled. That Brinkley Is willing to pay for service has been fully shown to the credit of the community. Only a small amount must still be made up, and we are assured that our public spirited citizens will re- spond and the s. l. A. will dc the rest.
 A committee was appointed to confer with the School Board relative to flooring the attic and putting it in condition for a Gymnasium.
 At the close of the meeting in- spection was made of the DOmes- tic Science Department. We were pleased to note that a fine Hoosier Kitchen Cabinet had been installed by Prof. and Mrs. Baumgartner to whom great credit is due for making the new study as attractive and interest ing as possible. as well as over coming many of the difficulties under which we now labor. The equipment furnished by the 5. 1. A. was viewed and pronounced good, and now
