Debility, the Condition that
Saps your Vitality, Under
mines your Constitution
and Blights your Future

Many men have been wrecked by
their own neglect, and if you are reap
ing the results of your former excesses
Or have noticed the slightest loss OF
vigor, nervousness, failing memory,
dizziness, loss of ambition Or any other
similar symptom, you have no time to
lose. Each one of your symptoms
means the serious progress Of disease
or weakness that will certainly rob you
of your strength and unfit you for bu-
siness Or a good position in life. DIR.
Kutchin cures these conditions
DR.. Kutchln's next visit to Green
vile, will be on Friday, Feb. 10th,
at the Turpen House. Consultation,
examination and advice free.

The Ladies' World for Febru-

The Ladies' World for Febru-
ary is entertaining from the first
cover-one of Cory Kilvert's in
imitable child sketches-to the
last. 1t is the Midwinter Fiction
Number, and so contains an un-
usual amount of bright story
matter. Francesca, the serial by
Florence Morse Kingsley, con-
tinues on its fascinating way.
Bessie r. Hoover has one of her
original Pickering stories, while
Cornelia A. P. Conner tells, as a
school-house tale, Before a Fall,
with the inevitable pride that
goes before. The church and the
stage meet in George L. Parker's
vivid description of "candidat-
ing" for a pulpit, and Gustav
Kobbe's rendering of Romeo and
Juliet in popular form. And to
leave one with a delightful sense
of having been we'll entertained
there is The Search, by L. o.
Henrici. An important article
in the household section is One
Housekeeper's Experie nee oil
Short Weights and Measures. A |
very practical contribution is the |
one on cleaning metals, while the |
cook will find several new ways |
of serving old potatoes. The 9TH
er departments are up to the u.s.
ual high standard, and cover
pretty we'll everything the aver
age woman wants to know about.

Bible story will attract all those

READY FOR A JOKE.
The Customs Official Had a Sense Of
Humor Himself.

Humor Himself.
In the smoking room of the Hotel
des lies Britanniques at the lovely re-
sort of Mentone, on the French Ri
viera, some three years ago two Eng
lishmen met. After half an hours
conversation the Englishman from
Manchester said to his new acquaint-
ance from London:
Il say, old fellow, would you mind
taking small parcel for me to Paris
and have It sent to this address there?
I'm leaving for Milan in the morning"
The LOndoner willingly consented to
do this much for one of his country
men.
"Awfully good of you. I'll have the
boy take the parcel to your room in
the morning." acknowledged the Eng
lshman bound for Milan.
In the morning the package was left
at the others room.
so that is what he calls a small
parcel" he exclaimed. "And what
might it contain? A package of such
size the custom officers would certain
ly want opened. What-cigarette and
5000 of them! Is it possible that any
one could have the audacity to ask
such a favOr-to smuggle 5000 ciga.
rettes into France! That chap shall
pay for this, for / shall declare these
cigarettes and leave them to be called
for when the duty is paid"
The LOndOner left MentOne that aft
ernoOn. The following day he was in
Paris at the Care de l'Est his luggage
ready for examination.
Anything dutiabIe?" asked the GUS
toms officer.
Nothing" replied the Englishman,
excepting in that parcel there"
what does it cOntan?"
"Three thousand cigarettes" said the
LondOner. with a smile upon his face
"a smile Of embarrassment at having
such parcel with him.
The Frenchman raised his hands in
the air and laughed heartily. He, too
was as ready for good joke as any
one. and on each piece of the English
mans luggage went his o. X. cross.
Hardly realizing what had happened, |
the LOndOner found himself riding in |
a taXicab along the streets of Paris
with the parcel of 5000 cigarettes un-
der his arm and nothing left to do but
to deliver it as he had been asked.
