EASTERN SALES ON REGISTER

T. S. Cooper and Sons of Cooper

age of $1004.5s per head including
calves and ALL Sixty head brought

D. H. KEMP FOR CIRCUIT JUDGE

The Cassviile Republican. under
date of May 25th, gave to its readers
an outline of d, H. Kemp's candidacy
for judge of the twenty-fourth ju-
dicial circuit, composed of Barry,
Lawrence, Mcdonald and Newton
counties.
Mr.. Kemp made his home in Monett
for over twenty years and our people
know him better on account of his
having grown in his professional life
here and the every day association
with him. His life was that of an
upright, moral, honest Christian
gentleman; loyal and faithful to his
family, church, schools and county. He
was on the moral side of every ques-
tion and true and tried friend to the
laboring class of people. He is a
close observer, welded to his profes-
sion, safe counsellor in legal mat
ters and successful practitioner at
the bar.
While serving as city attorney and
prosecuting attorney of this county,
he obeyed his official oath and when
our city needed legal advice on pub
lie enterprises and projects he was
ever ready to respond with his time,
money and talent for our city's good,
He was among the first to tender
his services to the State Executive
and Government in the Worlds War
and during the campaign was always
ready and willing to go and "do his
bit"
Mr.. Kemp has never asked his
party for public office, except in 1910,
which was for the nomination for
circuit judge, yet he served his party
in every campaign. 1t has been his
ambition to serve the people as trial
jduge, rather than congressman OF
state senator.
If elected circuit judge he will serve
the people faithfully and fairly, as
we'll as transact the business of the
office with punctuality and dispatch

KEEP THE KIDNEYS WELL
Health is Worth Saving, and Some
Monett People Know How TO
Save IL,


Many Monett people take their
lives in their hands by neglecting the
kidneys when they know these organs
need help. Weak kidneys are respon-
sible for a vast amount of suffering
and ill health--the slightest delay is
dangerous. Use Doan's Kidney Pills
"a remedy that has helped thousands
of kidney sufferers. Here is a Mo-
nett citizens recommendation.
Mrs. Fred Cooper, 110S Bond street
says: 81 had heavy, steady ache in
my back and when l stopped or turn
ed, sharp pains would shoot through
me. / felt all tired out and had ter
rible aches and pains in my head and
became nervous. Often my eyes We're
affected when black spots came be-
fore me. My kidneys acted irregular
ly, but | got Doan's Kidney Pills at
MeKee's Drug Store and used them.
They gave me complete relief"
(Statement given April 5, 1861
On january 2S, 1920, Mrs. Cooper
said: Il haven't had need Of kidney
remedy since giving my former state
ment and give the credit to DOan's
Kidney Pills"

simply ask for a kidney remedy-get
