has stood the test of time. 1t is a
story with a point which will come
straight home to many of us.

ney complaint for some time, A
friend recommended Doan's Kidney
Pills to me and I got box and after
using them l was very much bene-
fitted. l am willing to recommend
Doan's to anyone who has such
troubles as they have helped me to
a great extent"
Nearly five years later, Mr.. Hamil-
ton said. What l have said in the
statement l gave some years ago re-
garding the merit of Doan's Kidney
Pills holds good in every particular.
This medicine relieved me of an
annoying kidney weakness and a
lame back. l am pleased to en-
dorse Doan's again

NICKEL BY NICKEL
Newspaper Man Dribbled His
Profit to Beggar.
Little Transaction by Which Serbs
Thought He Was to Make $2.e5
Didn't End in Just That
Desired Way.

"a newspaper friend of mine" said
Mr.. G6slington, tells me Of nm I'M
usual experience he has had, In fact Is
still having with heggar.
He met this beggar first about n
| year ago. The circumstances attend
| ing this first meeting We're novel and
interesting and my friend wrote lit
! tie piece about II which was printed
in his newspaper and for which he
received So. AS he had given the
| beggar a nickel he figured that his
net profit on this was S2.95. But:
"A couple of weeks later he again
met this beggar, who again asked for
a nickel. a request that my friend did
not feel warranted in refusing.
don't think he would have refused any
way, my friend being an easy mark
for beggars: but having proflted by
his original transaction with this beg.
gar. he felt lmpelled to hand over this
second nickel promptly. thus reducing
his net on this little piece TO $500 j..
at wasn't long before my friend
discovered that this beggar lived some

now he used to meet him here and
there by intervals Not always. hy
any means. when they met did the
beggar approach him; commonly the
passed each other rs any other two
might do, with no sign Of recognition
but once In while the heggar would
ask for a nickel which always my
friend gave. In this way In the cours.
of three months he gave up rs cents
thus reducing the net of that So tn
S2.65. Then my friend had an idea.
He foresaw that If this went on
indefinitely. as there seemed every In
dication IT would do, the beggar would
get all of the SO, which to my friend
seemed scarcely reasonable. But hc
did think that an even division would
be no more than right to the beggar.
and so when the 50 got down to 81. g.
he set aside. in his mind. 81 Is as y
drawing account TO the heggar's credit.
and he said to himself that when TINS
the original fund had been evenly d
vided he would stop giving and con
slider that he had done the square
thing
