How Much Tobacco
 Will My Hear1 Stand
A Question Vital to Every Man Who Smokes or

NicotoI tablets and taking them as directed The habit really quits you and it's departure is a pleasure equal to it's indulgence.
 If you want to know how much easier it is to quit the habit with Nc Otol than without it go rwenty-four hours wihout tobacco and note what an effort it costs you, then begin using it as usual and take Nicotal tablets. At the end of a week dis continue smoking or chewing for a
 day and it is probable you will have no desire to resume. At least your
 desire will be greatly diminished and another week or two should make 1t not only possible but a. pleasure, to quit.
 NOTE: Dr. Connor, formerly of Johns Hopkins Hospital, under whose advice N1cotol has often been used. said when this statement was shown to him: T have known Nicotol to con- Cuer the tobacco habit in less than ten days time and I can therefore recommend it highly When the doctors statement was shown to one of our leading druggists he said: ''Nicotol is truly a wonderful remedy for the tobacco habit, way ahead of anything we have ever sold before. We are authorized by the manufac- turers to refund the money to every dissatisfied customer and we would not permit the use or our name un- less the remedy possessed unusual merit" Nicotol is sold in this city under an iron-cIad money-back guar antee by all up-to-date druggists, in- cluding the Cyrus, the Kaesnan and Ostrofsly stores.-Adv.

Sleuths Give Bride
of Soldier a Jolt

ATLANTA, Jan. 22.-AtIanta detec,
tives have gently conveyed to Mrs
Lillian Norman Sutton their firm con-
viction that her missing husband
James A. Sutton, who came here as a
soldier from Seattle, Wash, was not
thrown into the Chattah0oChee river
by three men thirsting for vengeance
because of a sergeant he killed, but
simply took French leave of his pref
ty wife and rambled back to Seattle
chen he got his discharge Mrs, SUIT
ton received a letter in which ner
husband told her that three men had
him tied on the bank of the Chatta-
noochee river. that they were letting
him write a word of farewell, that
they were then going to kill him and
throw him into the river. He ex-
planned that he had killed a sergeant
at Camp Gordon and one of these men
was the sergeants's father. But the
funny part was that he wrote 200
words, and his three captors also
wrote note on a typewriter. so the
detectives scoff at the idea Of murder
and dragging the river. If You want
to find Sutton. they say, go to Seattle.
