A HARD DAY'S WORK. WITHOUT ANY TROUBLE. A CHANGE IN THE LITE OF MANY A TIMARU CITIZEN. The prospect of a hard day's -work gives a man a shudder to think of it if he is sick. He would aot mind it if he was well. Have you not often had your deepest sympathy aroused by the face of an invalid at a window? Perhaps the day may be exceptionally pleasant to yon with your abundance of health. But if the slightest breeze awoke the trees it would be too much for that pale face at the window. And there are diseases just as exasperating, when one is as much an invalid as the one pictured. Kidney complaint has miseries unknown except to those who have suffered them. We are glad to say that there is much less of it in Timaru now that Doan's Backache Pills are so well known. Read how one citizen was benefited.

OFF MY LIFE." n. l 'J!? 3 "? a court of J us:ice adjoining the hideously g;o. ; mv prison of Newgate a point at which ihe misery and crime of London have for centuries been focussed A young man, scarce past bovhood, stood before the late Lord Chief Justice Coleidge, charged with embezzlement. He ras a bright, intelligent youth, somewhat better educated than the average English clerk, but not clever enough to make one sovereign do the work of five, so he had lbezzued his employer's money in order to live according to his taste. " The employer objected, hence the scene of which we have a vivid recollection. After reading him a fatherly lecture, the eminent Judge sentenced the delinquent to two years' imprisonment. " Two years' !' exclaimed the convict, as he was led away. "Two per cent, off my life, if I live for a hundred years !" Yes. two years makes a distinct notch in the life even of a centenarian"; mid taen, y< u see, very :ew of us can reisonablv hope to become < entenarians. which makes the matter wr.rys.
