agreement was quickly reached when
it was learned that the little triangu-

years has belonged to both govern

itself, was to shelter second Monte
Carlo. The German and Belgium pa
pers declare that the new gaming re

Moresnet, or rather Moresnet Neu

very unique history and is itself very
curious. Its area is 1000 acres; its
population about $500, and its one and

be referred to as an out-of-theway

from the metal calamine, called by the
inhabitants "kelme" This name is
mentioned in documents as early as
1414. For long time the territory
was a part of the duehy of Limburg.

Crossroads, Tenn, Sept. l4.-0rbra Young.
the ten-year-od son OF Lester Young, OF thia
place, is a bright boy, and one who is very
well liked by all who know him.
For some years Orbra has suffered a great
deal with a form of Kidney Trouble which
was very annoying, and which made him mis-
cradle all the time. He had to get up three
or four times every night almost all his
life
His father heard of a remedy called Dodd's
Kidney Pills, and bought some for the lit
tie fellow with the result that he is now COM
pletely cured of the old trouble He says
"Dodd's Kidney Pills soon gave me great
relief, and now can sleep all night without
having to get up, We will always praise
Dodd's Kidney Pills. ;"
There are many children suffering from
Kidney and Urinary troubles. These dis
orders should be promptly corrected. Dodd's
Kidney Pills is safe and sure remedy for
all such arrangements.
Master Orbra Young conquered his trou-
bles and made a well boy of himself by using
Dodd's Kidney Pills, and any one may do
the same by the same means
Parents should see to it that their children
are given fair chance in life. and there is
nothing that can undermine the health of
growing child as much as Kidney and Uri-
nary arrangements.
