WHAT'S THE REASON
Many Monet People in Poor Health
Without Knowing the Cause.

There are scores of people who drag
out a miserable existence without
realizing the cause of their suffering.
Day after day they are racked with
backache and headache; suffer from
nervousness, dizziness, weakness, Ian
gour and depression. Perhaps TIE
kidneys have fallen behind in their
work of filtering the blood and that
may be the root of the trouble. Look
to your kidneys, assist them in their
work-give them the help they need.
You can use no more highly recon-
mended remedy than Doan's Kidney
,Pills-endorsed by people all over the
county and by your neighbors in
Monett. Ask your neighbor!
E. M. Whitney, prop. restaurant,
COL Third street, Monett, says: II
have had spells when my back would
get sore and lame and / could scarcely
move because of the sharp, cutting
pains which darted through me.
Whenever notice this trouble coming
on 1 always get Doan's Kidney Pills
at McKee's Drug Store and they soon
put a stop to the trouble. A box or
so have always relieved the backache
and strengthened up my kidneys in
good shape"
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy-gct
Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that

A TREAT FOR MUSIC LOVERS
MOnett Choral Club to Give Christmas
Cantata in Costume at Methodist
Church Friday Evening.

The Choral Concert to be given un-
der the auspices of the Music Club
promises to be a rare musical treat to
music lovers Of Monett. This concert
will be given at the Methodist Church
on Friday evening, December 22nd.
Prof. Marcus Peterson of Aurora is
directing the Cantata, which is very
beautiful story Of the Birth Of Christ.
The story is divided into four parts.
Part |. Let there Be Light deals
with the creation Of the world, the
misery and sorrow proceeding the birth
of Christ when the world was in sin
and had no hopes and in which the
people of the world are pleading for
light and are finally promised a
Savior to lead them into the light.
Part II. Ire Trembling King.
This part shows the dread and fear
of Herod as he begins to hear about
this Christ that has been born and his
fear that he will lose his great power
because of this strange king about
whom he is hearing SO much. In this
part the wise men visited Herod in
quiring for the Christ.
Part III. The Star of Bethlehem.
The shepherds see the star and hear
the angels announcing the birth of the
Christ and there is great excitement
in Judah as to the finished prophecy
of Savior and the great number Of
the people acknowledge that Savior
has come and there is great rejoicing,
as they feel that the mournful years
are gone and IsraePs night is lost in
Israel's dawn.
Part w. The Holy Family.
Mary and Joseph implore the help
of God in this wonderful hour of full
filIment of prophecy. The shepherds
come from their fields to find the
Child so long foretold. The wise men
from afar come bringing their gifts
to the precious babe.
About twenty-five will be in the
cantata. The part of Herod will be
taken by Mr.. Harry Fleming, Bass,
the watchman by Bruce Burchard OF
Aurora, the voice in the wilderness by
M. T. Davis of Aurora, Balthasar, one
of the wise men, will be taken by Prof.
Peterson; Cydia, an attendant to the
King by Miss Noveta Brown; Zadish,
a prophecies of Israel will be taken
by Miss Lillian Alsup. Mary and
Joseph will be taken by Mrs. E. W.
Russey and Mr.. Leslie Mason.
The choruses are composed of the
best talented singers in Monett.
The cantata will be given in
costume.
There will be no admission charge
to the concert but the Music Club has
had considerable expense in the tram
ing for the Cantata and free will
offering will be taken at the church
and it is to be hoped that people will
respond literally at that time in order
that they may show their appreciation
of an effort to give to Monctt the best
in music.

COCHETOPA FOREST ROADS TO
CONNECT GlJNN|s0N At lola

Last week the News Champion fea-
tured the announcement that with a
half million to spend on forest roads,
which would connect with and sup
plement the Rainbow Route the whole
northern half of Gunnison county
would be opened by system of high
way only second to the Primary inter-
state road east and west through our
city.
As expected, the same conditions
apply to the Cochetopa National for
est which partially encircles our city
on the east and south, and undoubtedly
will secure roads through the Uncom-
pahgre forest Of the Blue mesa in
this county.
The following article from the Sa-
guache Crescent details the move being
made to connect the Cochetopa pass
road with lola, via southern route
back of Sawtooth mountain. A state
project already under way, is now
opening the old toll road from Los
Pinos across to the head Of the Ce-
bolla. This will later be connected
with Lake City, and according to the
Crescent, will be built through the
difficult Cebolla canon to Powderhorn
and thence to lola. The Crescent
