port Of survey made under the d.
rection of the State department at

The two working together can ac-
complish much good.
Fourth-All the health activities of
the city should be put under one head
and the sewer complaints should be
left to one man outside the health or
ganization. If some means of trans
portation can be provided. this part

creta may be properly maintained

Tenth-The city should make
earnest effort to do away with all

Twelfth-Sufiicient money should
be appropriated by the city to cover
the above recommendations.

How Much Tobacco
" MAY COST A PRECIOUS LIFE
TO FIND OUT BY EXPERIMENT.

The heart Of every user of tobacco
bears double burden. 1t does it's allot-
ted task and then fights nicotine for
supremacy. AS long as the heart wins
Re lives; when it loses he dies. but be-
fore the final victory of nicotine you
pass through manv stages of decline
and decay and suffer many pangs
Hearts are like human beings-some are
stronger than others. therefore some
hearts will stand more tobacco than
others, but there is a limit to what
any heart can stand. The man who
puts this additional strain on his heart
a dozen times a day by smoking cigar
cites. q pipe or cigars-or chewing to-
bacco-is taking a madman's chance
with health and life to lose and nothing
to win but the chance that he may not
lose them. He is indulging in a costly
habit at the expense of precious health
Ask any doctor anywhere, and ne will
tell you that using tobacco is injurious
and that it is far better to quit the
habit than to experiment to find how
much tobacco your heart will stand
without serious results.
But the thought of quitting is I'M
pleasant to most men-even to those
who know that tobacco injuries them
and to really quit takes more will pow
er than they have and causes more suf-
fering than they can voluntarily en-
dure. To quit the habit make it easy

AL. LUTTRINGER AND

"Wife in Name Only" Proves Play

eryone-Gladys Leslie in "Too
Many Crooks" also Scores at Opera
House
Ann Kingsley, the beautiful leading
woman of the Luttringer Stock Co +,
now playing at the Augusta Opera
House is mighty fascinating at all
times. but in wife in Name Only" the
Maine comedy drama in which this tall
ented organization will be seen for tn.
last times today, she is more than fas-
cinating-she arouses sympathy and
even pity.
Miss Kingsley appears as Ruth Wal
ton. young woman who has been
made the victim Of false marriage.
Down hearted and an outcast, she seeks
shelter In the home Of Squire Shaw,
where. through the intercession Of the
son Allen, she is taken in. Miss Kings
ley enacts the role in a way that goes
straight to the hearts Of her audience.
and when she is driven out into the
terrors of a New England storm by the
righteous-minded. but somewhat puri.
tan!cal Squire, her scene is one of the
most Convincing ever acted on a local
stage.
Al. Luttringer proves a most manly
Allen and all through the performance
he conveys feeling Of repressed power
that proves the real artist. His scene
when he follows Ruth into the storm
and saves her is deserving Of all the tu-
multuous applause that has been given
1t. The other members Of the company
give most capable support.
