Another Link With Monticello

Monticello Citizens Add Their Praise Another link with our neighboring town of Monticello is provided in the following grateful and generous statement’ of a w’ell-known resident there, Mr. Thomas H. Graves, Railroad St 3 who says: “I had a severe attack of lumbago and my back became so stiff and sore that I could not stoop. I ha\l a dull, throbbing ache through my kidneys and loins and a distressing kidney Weakness. I doctored and used medicine of various kinds, but nothing helped me until 1 took Doan’s Kidney Pills. This medicine went to the seat of the trouble and three boxes made a cure,” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Graves had.

tions to go down to Foresman in a few days to lay track for Mr. Teach, the stone road contractor. Aunt Hannah Culp, wha has been at Lee the past two or three weeks waiting on her brother, George, came home Wednesday evening. Kinder Kennedy of near Morocco, moved last week onto the former Joe Kosta farm, which he purchased last summer of Everett Halstead. Lou Moffitt, who has been working on the Lawler ranch, has been laid up at his uncle’s A. M. Bringle’s this week with appendicitis, but is some better at this writing.

With all our signs of early spring, thus far we have failed to hear the familiar voice of the frogs in the roadside ditches. They probably know when it is time to holler. Mr. Speaks, who has been working for Neen Littlefield on his farm near here, threw up his job and moved off Wednesday, and John Moihler of Rensselaer, took his place the same day. According to reports the third trick man at the depot will have no mors_ job than a rabbit after the first Of April, which means there will be no more telegraph service from this station at night after April 1.

FOUR CORNERS. Trustee Keen sold some cattle to the Comer’s Monday. F. W. Fisher was in Rensselaer on business Thursday. Stdfhien Comer of Union tp., was in Kankakee tp., purchasing cattle this week.

Andrew Misch has purchased a Ford through the Hoover “sub” at Wheatfield, and now Louis is in his glory, J * Oliver Wallace of San Pierre, is putting in two cars of tile for F. G. Barnard on his Kankakee tp., farm. The indications now is that the north end will get telephone service over the San Pierre and Norts Judson lines. A few farmers have commenced oats sowing, but next week, should the weather prove favorable, the} will go to it with full force. George Byers had a set-to with, the K. of P. goat at Wheatfield Wednesday night. The goat came through, but George—well, you ought to see him. A. Moyer, who sold his farm to Illinois parties, has blossomed out itno a real estate agent and is running this end of the deals in connection with agents in Illinois. Bro. John of the Review, sent in his resignation as a member of the school board, thinking that he was indespensible and that they would beg him to remain. But as soon as he found that they were willing and even anxious that he step down and out, he faced about and said he was joking; that he wanted to still continue to be “it” of the school board. . Now it is up to John to withdraw his request and step out. We can’t understand how they can get on without him, though. We heard that Judge Hanley, Abe Halleck, H. W. Marble and a number of other prominent republicans urged him to accept the .office of squire. Sure, but did you ever hear of a democrat that wanted him for any office? Now, according to a decision of the Jasper circuit court, in a case brought from Remington some years ago, he cannot hold both offices, and neither can one resign as J. P. to accept the office of member of a school board.
