AN UNWELC0ME GUEST.
This HOteI-CIerk Cannot BE
Blamed for Ejecting So
Troublesome q Visitor.

After the battle of Waterloo, when the
allied forces lay in and around Brussels, every
conceivable sort of coin was in circulation.
One day an Irish soldier walked into hotel
with British shilling and asked the clerk
if it would go. GOOD for anything have"
was the reply. The Irishman took him at
his word and ordered dinner. When he had
gotten outside of an astonishing amount Of
wine and victuals he rendered the shilling in
payment. Explanations followed, and the
clerk, taking in the situation, said,
"Here, my good man, misery loves COM
pany. Keep the shilling, my friend, and
play the same game on our neighbor, down
the street" AS the shilling was pocketed
the owner cooly replied: Cant, my friend,
l worked it on him yesterday, and he sent
me to you to-day" Now this anecdote has
nothing earthly to do with Mr.. G. Carl
Smith, clerk at the Williamson House,
Lebanon, N. II. We merely introduce him
in this manner so that the readers of this
paper, who have regular visits from relatives
of the guest in question: will know how to
dispose of the intruder. Read what Mr..
Smith says: II was troubled for year or
more with a weakness in the small of my
back. If 1 did any lifting or STOPPING my
back would feel lame and sore, or if
turned around quickly felt sharp twinges.
Though l used more or less plasters they
only helped me for the time being. was
feeling very bad last winter when had my
attention called to Doan's Kidney Pills, and
got box at drug store. felt the effects
Of them in few days, and after l had
finished one box my back felt much better
and stronger, and they gave me more energy
in doing my work. Doan's Kidney Pills are
certainly good kidney remedy. They have
my endorsement and I will be pleased to
recommend them at any time"
