March th Shenk recital, Llndley Mall. At the Murray. No better vaudeville has been seen in Richmond for a long time than playing at the popular Murray this week, from beginning to end there is not a dull moment In the entire show, but each act seems fairly to sparkle. The Woodawells, two young modern hercules open the show with an acrobotlc act that has never been excelled in Richmond. They are aeriallets of uncommon ability and grace and the magnificent muscle development without coarseness and the remerkable things done stamp theirs as an act to be thoroughly enjoyed. Provol, the phtstllng ventriloquist, Is one of the big hits of the bill and springs a great surprise on the audience when, with a lighted cigar in his mouth he whistles and gives various Imitations. Wolf and Zadella, acrobatic dancers and comedians, have a very clever turn that la thoroughly enjoyed. ' Ethel Wbltesldes and her famous dancing Pick are well known, as their reputation precedes them, and this week Is no exception as they are making such a hit as to draw capacity houses at each performance. Dr. Beans From Beaton. That moat mirthful and effervescent of all musical comedies "Doctor Beans From Boston," presented by the popu lar "Smart Set" company, one of the most widely known and withal expensive colored troupes on the circuit, is underlined aa the next attraction at the Oennett theater Saturday matinee and night. At the head of the organi sation aa In former, seasons is 8. H. Dudley, a comedian who is recognised as one of the best in his particular line. The management have surround ed the noted fun-maker with a capable company. The production has .been carefully and Judiciously staged and should prove asource of unalloyed enjoyment to amusement seekers who like to be entertained In an up-to-date and wholesome manner. The play is In three acts with a plot bristling with Woman Finally Recovers Frcsi Nervous Breakdown Impoverished nerves destroy many people ociore tneir time. Uften before a sufferer realizes what the trouble is, he is on the verge of a complete nervous breakdown. It is of the utmost importance to keep your nervous system in good condition, as the nerves are the source of all bodily power. Mrs. Anna Kounz, 21 1 Mechanic St, Pueblo, Colo, says: '"For many years I suffered from nervous prostration; I was unable to do any house work and doctors failed to help me. Remedies I tried from druggists did not do me a particle of good. A neighbor told my husband about Dr. Mfea Nervine and he procured a bottle. After the first few doses I showed a marked improvement and after taking two bottles I was entirely cured. 1 have been perfectly well for years. and cannot praise Dr. Miles Nervine too highly." . If you are troubled with loss of BP.t.,.te Pr digestion, weakness, inability to sleep; if you are in a general run down condition and unable to bear your part of the daily grind of life, you need something to strengthen your nerves. ou may not realize what is the matter with you, but that is no reason why you should delay treatment Dr. Milet' Nervine has proven its value in nervous disorders for thirty years, and merits a trial, no matter how many other remedies have failed to i.- lp you - h aa avuaateta. if m settle fat Benefit your meney l rsi a MILES MEDIOAW IMwuta

A Scene

Ills 50 AT side-splitting situations and rib-ticking complications. "Louisiana Lou." The efforts of two pairs of young lovers to outwit their elders by making UBe of the fun and gayety of the Madra Gras festival form the minor romance of "Louisiana Lou," which will be seen on next Monday night at the Gennett theater. This la the first time the famous ante-Lenten carnival of the Crescent City a carnival that takes hundreds of thousands of visitors there every year has been put on the stage. The authors of "Iouisiana Lou" did not go to New Orleans for their scene nor to the Mardi Gras for their color simply with a view of being picturesque. Their plot is so entwined With the Mardi Gras maskings and fun that it will readily be seen why the Chicago critics have heaped high praise upon "Louisiana Lou," as a play as well as in its aspect as a show. THRASHING SERVANTS. Domestio Life In England In the Time of Henry VIII. In that remarkably minute chronicle of domestic life in England in the time of Henry VIII.. Tuaser's "Five Hundred Points of Good Husbandry," the learned and pious author seems to tnke.it for granted that the only way of dealing with maidservants is to thrash them unmercifully. He tells us in his Inimitable doggerel that "a maid must be forced to be cleanly" or she Is to be "made to cry creak." Mistresses are advised "to go about with a holly wand In their hand, although they may not always have occasion to use It, and to pay home when they fight" that is to say. thrash "but not to be always chiding." As regards the laundry, the domestic serfs are "warned, to take heed when they wash or run in the lash and to wash well, wring well and beat well, so that If any lack beating it will be themselves." As for the unhappy Cicely, the dairymaid, she Is to cry "creak" that is to say. to be thrashed If her cheese Is "hoven" or puffed np, and If the cheese be tongh Cicely is, to have "a crash." If the cheese be spotted Cicely is to be amended by the payee, and If it be too full of wbey the wretched dairymaid Is to have "a dressing." Finally, if any maggots are found in the cheese, "mistress is to be Cicely by and by." An Artist's Joke. Holman Hunt, who began life as a clerk to an auctioneer and estate agent, was constantly drawing portraits when he should have been drawing np leases, and In his chosen profession he waa never alow to seize the flying moment The windows in his room were made of ground glass, and as he had little to do he spent much of his time In drawing flies upon its roughened surface. A blot of ink sufficed for the body and some delicate pencil strokes for the wings, and at a distance the deception was perfect. Day by day the number Increased, and one morning his employer came in. stopped before the window and exclaimed: "I can't make out how It is. Every day that I come into this room there seem to be more and more flies." And, taking out his handkerchief, be attempted to brush them away. Patohwerk. The idea that patchwork had its origin In America Is not founded on fact A thousand years before the Christian era a queen of Egypt went down the Nile to her last resting place under a wonderful canopy of skins that were dyed and pieced together in a mosaic pattern. Years before this work had readied perfection and acquired a definite place among the arts. Then, too, patchwork quilts were made In England la the eighteenth century, aa witness the lines written by Cowper to a Mrs. King upon receipt of "a kind present of a patchwork quilt of her own making." Woman's Home Companion. A Mighty Man. TopUam, the prince of English strong men. had knots of muscles" where the armpits are in the ordinary 'man. He could take a bar of iron one and one-half Inches In diameter and Ave feet long.. place the middle of it over the back of his neck Im then force the ends forward until they met before his face. On one occasion he called upon a village blacksmith and mad of him an everlasting enemy by picking up a number of horseshoes and snapping them in two as easily as

(J GENNETT MONDAY NIGHT, FEB. L . SOCIETV LEAP YEAR DANCE. A most elaborate social event for tonight will be the "Leap Year" dance to be given by a number of young women who are members of the T. B. G. club. The party will be held in the Pythian Temple. There will be several out-of-town guests in attendance. GIVEN SURPRISE. Members of the Neighborly quartet pleasantly surprised Mrs. C. A.

Life is real, that's the truth, real, so real that it is like dry dust in the throat. Even the matter-of-fact, practical person who has to cough once in a while to escape choking. But the streak of romance is the twilight dew which refreshes and strengthens us for the on-coming sultry day, which ever is awaiting us. Few of us are so poor and unfortunate as not to possess in some degree of thickness or thinness the streak of romance, that faculty by which we transmute dull brass into pure gold, and so, thank goodness! remain blind to Its inevitable tarnishing. If ever it is going to show it will show in youth. Then for a while even the dullest of us sometimes strike divine fire from the hard anvil of every-day existence. As a general thing, however, we smash a thumb while doing it, and thereafter nurse the same in sulky and resentful silence, steadily refusing to have another try. Once in a while you run across a poor soul who even in youth lacks the streak of romance. Love to him is a amtter of a more or less inconvenient and expensive attachment, marriage a matter of good food and good housekeeping, benevolence a cold matter of business, and labor a mere means of making a liv ing. Yet the matter-of-fact mortal pities the romantic, the enthusiastic the absent minded Jack-o-dreams, who Uvea alternately in hot raptures and cold wakenings, who raves today to weep tomorrow, who follows with headllng footsteps the will-o-the-wisp of happiness which dances before the hills and hollows of life. But Jack-o-dreams reaches heights and touchea depths which forever are unknown sweet kuantitiea to the mat-ter-of-facth mortal. The streak of romance fades and vanishes with most my middle age SAVES MONEY "Whir" lant wasteful like scouring powders or brick preparations. Premium coupon In can. All dealers, 10c

Whom the gods love die young, it is said, yes, mercifully die before life has lost the beauty and sweet fragrance of that love which is the only thing that makes it worth while. GETTING EXACT TIME. A Very Simple Matter, According te This Man's Idea. There Is nothing like having one timepiece to correct the mistakes of another. Those people who keep a clock in every room of the house will no doubt be glad to learn of the expedient adopted by an old colored janitor in an office building in Chicago. One day a man whose office was under this janitor's charge asked him if he had the exact time. "Just a moment sir," he said and pulled out a battered silver watch from a vest pocket looked at it, put it back and then took a pencil out of another pocket and jotted down something on the back of an envelope. Next he produced a second silver watch from bis trousers pocket, looked at It and began to figure out something on the paper. By and by he said: "When you asked, sir. It were jest twenty-seven minutes past 3 that's exact" "Much obliged," said the other, who had been fingering bis watch nervously. "But will you please tell me 'what you were doing all that arithmetic for?" "Why, you see," said the old man. "this watch that I carry In my vest Is a mighty good watch, only it gains ten minutes every day. And this one is a mighty good one, too, but It loses ten minutes every day. So I just look at them both and then strike an average. You'd be surprised, sir. to see what a simple matter it is." Exchange. Oil engines have been used for some time in submarines by the admiralties of all countries save Enlgland and the United States. Consumption Often Develops From Pneumonia Consumption readily attacks those who have had Pneumonia. Many sufferers from Tuberculosis give a history of having had Pneumonia.

yMQURNIMG CUSTOMS." They Are Vary Ancient, and Experts Differ as t Their Origin. The origin 'of going Into mourning was discussed recently by a body of anthropologists. Some students hold that the wearing of black was originally a disguise assumed as a protection from the dead person's spirit. The idea was that the deceased was naturally disgusted to find himself dead and that be wreaked his resentment upon his relations. Therefore

the relations thought that to alter their appearance would be a means of escape, and all over the world veils were used to hide the faces of mournersa practice still surviving in the Impenetrable veil of the widow. The disguises mourners used such as the veil, the turning of the clothes inside out and the shaving of the bead, as practiced by the Ainos were simple enough,, but supernatural beings were always, it appeared, easy to trick. Another theory of mourning was that it was put on to warn people that its wearers bad been contaminated by death. There was an idea of pollution attached to the great mystery. All early people shared the horror of death and the fear of the return .of the spirits. Thus in the Sudan widows sprinkle their food with ashes to prevent their husbands' ghosts from eating it Exchange. The Hawaiian Language. Tbe language of Hawaii is very simple. To one who hears It for the first time comes tbe conviction that the aborigines expressed their sentiments In primitive vowel sounds, to which some consonants have been added. Each vowel is sounded as In Latin, and the words nre easily prouoiinced by one who is patient and wishes to speak distinctly. The pronunciation will be all the better if tbe speaker will draw out, almost drawl, tbe vowel sounds, for which reason tbe language Is well suited to the doleful Hawaiian wail.
