"THE TlIIhL" That powerfully gripping drama of a woman who steals in order to make herself attractive in the eves of her husband, produced two years ago at the Lyceum Theatre, New York, will be seen at The Tabb Opera House for one night, Tuesday, Feb. 7. It tells the story of Richard Voysin and his wife, comparatively poor, who are visiting their rich friends, Raymond Tiii Gardes aud Madame La Gardas. There is a son, Ferdinand La Gardes, who is in love with Madame Voysin. She laughs at his boyish passion. A thief steals 21,000 francs from Madame Very iii. Mrs. Lizzie Clark, one of the best known and oldest women of this county, is critically ill at the home of Mr. G. P. Sullivan, eight miles west of this city. She is naarly 91 years old and, is the widow of Lawson Clark, one of the first farmers who raised tobacco in this county in 1877. Many friends in this and Mason county will regret to learn of her serious illness. " ut ut La Gardes. All indications to Ferdinand, the son, and in a remarkable dramatic scene he admits the theft.

From lightness to love, the husband assisting his wife in removing her wraps preparatory to retiring, the scene develops until the wife, questioned by the husband as to the source whereby she is able to buy gowns and undergarments of such costly texture, is forced to confess that she and not the son of their friends, stole the 21,000 francs from Miidamo La Gardes. From curtain to curtain "The Thief" holds the spectator in a grip of steel, not only by the strength of its story and its great human appeal, but by the many surprising twists of the plot and the numerous scenes which call for acting of the highest calibre. Poolers Receive Money. The first distribution of money secured from the sale of the Montgomery county pooled tobacco for the year 1909 was .paid out here last week to the growers who are happy at the prospect of receiving some money. The money is being paid out by County Chairman Asa Bean and Secretary Blount and the amount distributed will be about $10,000. This money is badly needed by those who receive it and should help business men considerably. Improving. We are in receipt of a card from Mr. C. T. Evans, who, with his family, is spendinir the winter months at San Antonio, Texas. Mr. Evans says that his health is good and that he is enjoying his stay in Texas immensely. ". ' Circuit Court. .

"' The idea that delicate constitutions should be protected from contact with "raw'' air has been pretty thoroughly exploded among informed persons, but the explosion has not been heard everywhere. It was demonstrated in the Chicago zoological garden that monkeys from the tropical jungles died of tuberculosis in cages, but grew fat, thick furred and frisky out of doors in midwinter. That it is an error to keep children in an atmosphere somewhat similar to that of a monkey cage in point of temperature and a lack of ventilation is established. Nowadays physicicians know that a child which is fretful and tired out in a vitiated and overheated atmosphere grows quiet and gains strength when properly wrapped up and exposed to the fresh air of out of doors. Grown persons who have made the experiment know-tha- t vitality is increased and cold is not "caught" by sleeping with all of the windows open and not minding the weather even when the wind does blow, to reverse the formula of a once popular ditty. But there are more persons who are still afraid of a liberal supply of uncontaminated and uncooked air than there are who have learned not to be.

If You hear it said quite frequently that there is no appreciation of worth. The statemcet is not true. Never before in the world's history was there more appreciation of worth. If a man or woman is really clever at anything, they cannot hide themselves from the world. The trouble is that the people demand that they be paid at their own estimate, instead of at their actual value. Business interests are so varied now that there is the greatest demand for men at high wages. But a man must patiently learn his business before he can hope to occupy the higher walks. I have often thought that every man receives too much undeserved kindness and charity. Every young man tells his mother and folks that he is really the life of the institution where he is employed, and that his salary would be doubled if he received justice at the hands of his employer. His mother and his folks pretend to believe it, to be kind, and do the young man harm. Should he be told by his mother and folks that he is suffering from swell head, he might make an effort to reduce the swelling, but if he is encouraged in his folly, he will become morose and sullen, because ho believes he has been treated unjustly. An employer will always pay a valuable man every dollar he is worth in order to keep him. Good men are so scarce that an employer will not let a really irood man go if he can I. ncip it. rni young man wno is ine "not appreciated" is, as a rule, worthless.

Some years ago a competitor in the Isle of Man motor race refused to take this number, and insisted on driving as No. 12a. He stated that when his firm began to build cars the thirteenth killed Us purchaser and five others on its first run.
