Why Angelo Jones
 Gave Up Art

"C) YOU don't know why Angelo
 , Jones gave up art. said the doe tor. after contributing three smoke i rings to the rathskeller haze. Well, il was mean game of the old man's-ene of thase shrewd. brutal schemes that only hardened stock operator would be callous enough to think of or execute.
 You know old Midas Jones never took kindly to the idea of the young cub be- coming painter daubing for living he used 10 call it. But he had never been accustomed to exercise any authority or even influence over his children His was busy life, keeping up the house and the yacht and the villa and the style generally The children and the sery- ants were left to madame She was a vapofy thing who lived under the de- fusion that she had soul The girls all took after dad They got away from her and became golfers. But Angelo was mamma's boy; he thought he had soul. too. and his mother encouraged him to spread il out in oils.
 The old man eHssed and threatened and ridiculed, but. naturally, the more earnest he grew the more convinced the soul contingent became that it was their duty 10 stick out agairst him. And they did. Angelo rigged up q studio cOzy corner style. i'll the top floor front of the old Fifth avenue barrack, entered at tha Academy of Design. bought velvet coat and an objectionable pipe. let his hair grow long and joined an evening life class
 This is where old Bamburg came in. You knew Hamburg. You knew his seedy coat and his collar, which he al ways wore once too often, his dusty veil of long hair. his thin leathery face. his sunken eye and his paony nose. Maybe you don't know. however. that he had touch of genius in him-genius gone wrong

He was one of those menwho are marked for failure. It was no fault of his He worked He got his pictures shown. He sold good many But he never had any business instinct. He never seemed to get ahead of the game He was always fighting poverty and debt. He was often in actual want.
 After awhile the struggle wore him out. Discouragement crushed him and he became the dealers hack he was when he died
 Yet he was most charming fellow 1 remember one New Years eve he cane to my office l was a bachelor then and prescribed in the back parlor of fur nished room house.

grandfather, was, for about fifty
years, pastor of the Otter Creek Baptist
church which was the first Baptist
church founded in Meade county, and
also of the Gllead Baptist church. The
records of these churches we're given
him because of his grandfather 6
connection with them.
The most noticeable thing about the
entries is the difference between them
and those contained in church records
of the present day. For instance such
an entry as the following would
hardly be thought OF today;
January 26. 1880 The church met
and after prayer proceeded to bust
ness. LIST. Otter Greek church sends
for Bro. Hubbard to show cause why
he does not fill his seat on our days
of business and appoints Bro. Thomp-
son Kendall and Bro Jno. Allen to see
him. -
And yet from this we get lesson.
If our churches today would ap-
point members to see why other
me mters do not attend and would be
more strict in all church laws it would
Ger tainly make the organization
stronger.
And yet another lesson, showing
that mercenary matters did not enter
into the church in those days so much
as they do now. Where mention II
made of pastor ug--called there il
not word about the salary..he is to b'
paid.

Mrs. Pinlham claims that there is
kind of dyspepsia that is caused by
arrangement of the female organism,
and which, while it causes a disturb
ance similar TO ordinary Indigestion,
cannot be relieved without a medicine
which not only acts as Il stomach tonic,
but has peculiar uterine-tonic effects
also.
As proof of this theory we call at
tention 10 the case of Mrs. Maggie
Wright, Brooklyn, N. Y, who was
completely cured by Lydia f. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound after every
thing else had failed. She writes:
For two years | suffered with dyspepsia
which so degenerated my entire system that
was unable TO attend TO my daily duties
felt weak and nervous, and nothing that l ate
tasted good and it caused disturbance in my
stomach. | tried different dyspepsia cures,
but nothing seemed TO help me. / was ad-
vised TO give Lydia E. Pnkhams Vegetable
Compound a trial, and was happily surprised
TO find that II acted like fine tonic, and in
fewdays began TO enjoy and properly digest
my food. My recovery was rapid, and in
five weeks ! was a well woman. ! have rec
commended it TO many suffering women"
No other medicine in the world has
received such widespread and unquali-
fed endorsements or hassuch a record Of
cures of female troubles, as has Lydia
L. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.

TWO OLD CHURCH RECORDS
Owned by j. E. Keith Material From
Which We May Get Lessons.

J. E. Keith has In his possession
two books containing the records o.
the business meetings of two old
churches, Which are interesting and
valuable because of their age and asso-
Citations, and the material of which
could be made profitable if Christian
people of the present day would adopt
some of the plans laid down in them
for the strengthening of the church
organization. The entries In each
were made in ink. The pages are yell
lowed with age but the ink does not
appear to have faded much. The books
are old fashioned ledgers, of several
score pages each.
One of the books contains the con-
stitution, bylaws and minutes OF
business meetings of the Otter Greek
Baptist church, which was founded on
November II, 1912, near the town Ia
Meade county known as Garnettsville
but then as Plaindealing. The records
of the monthly business meetings
of the church extend to October, 1857,
about which time the church wa;
taken over by the United Baptists.
The other book contains the consti-
tuition. bylaws and minutes OF bust
ness meetings of the Gilead Baptist
church, near Glendale, Hardin county
from its foundation in 1924 unit

are doing a pretty heavy bu siness this
year. The transportation interests are
very great, and railroad lines reach
