A BEAUTIFUL MARBLE SHAFT.
Marks the Historic Spot Where An
cient Church Was Built.
(Anderson Mail.)

Pendleton, Nov. 18.-On Saturday,
November 9th, company of about
fifty people assembled to witness the
unveiling of marble shaft to mark
the I" "Hopewell-ISeowee" church. This
was the Presbyterian church founded
by Gen, Andrew Pickens and Col.
Robert Anderson, about 1888 or
1888. 1t was built Of logs and was
on Gen. Pickens' farm, about three
miles northwest from Pendleton.
Preaching was conducted at this
church till about 1901 or 1902, when
the building, (180D, now known as
the Old Stone Church." was finished,
and services were removed thither,
as 1t was more centrally located.
The first elders of Hopewell-Ke
wee were Gen. Andrew Pickens, Col.
Robert Anderson and Major Dickson,
all soldiers Of the Revolutions; it's
first minister was Rev. John Simpson.
Mr.. Simpson remained but short
while and was followed by Rev. Thos.
Reese, d. D., who was pastor till
1896. and whose grave was the first

Stone church. Dr.. Reese was proba-
bly the most learned Presbyterian
minister in his day in the Carolinas,

Tor such men as Pickems and Ander-
son.
Rev. w. H. Mills, Of Clemson Col
lege, made the first address, calling
attent ton to the chief contribution of
these great men to the civilization
of their own day as being this, that
they were devoted and jealous in
their SuDDOrt Of tho church Dr r
f.. Diver, Of Anderson, spoke on
Rev. John Simpson and his life and
labors. Both these speakers paid
eloquent tributes to Capt. j. Miles
Pickens, Of Pendlet0n, to whose un-
firing zeal this memorial is due
Capt. Pickens deserves the sincere
thanks Of all the descendants OF the
earliest settlers in this community
and of the Presbyterian church at
large, and indeed Of every loyal
patriot, irrespective Of ancestry or
denomination. For who is there who
does not desire to preserve the his
tory Of the State and to commemo-
rate the virtues of the fathers of our
common country?
After the exercises Of the morning
picnic dinner was served on the
grounds, and in the afternoon the as
sembly dissolved, each one declaring
the occasion most delightful and re-
Jolcing that he had been present.

DO YOU ENJOY EATING
Or Does Everything You Eat
Distress You?

Experts declare that the reason
stomach disorders are so common in
this country Is due to hasty and
careless habits Of eating. Stomach
troubles and rundown conditions also
usually so together
John Lind, Of Oneonta, NJ Y, SAYS:
II have been troubled with a bad
stomach trouble for fifteen years, and
became so weak that I could hardly
walk or do any work. My appetite
was very poor, and it seemed impos-
sible to get any relief. Since taking
two bottles Of Vinol find that 1t has
already made a remarkable improve
ment in my health; my digestion is
much stronger, and 1 have gained in
weight"
Vinoi makes weak stomachs strong
because 1t strengthens and tones up
the weakened, tired and overtaxed
nerves Of the digestive organs. Vinol
is easily assimilated by the weakest
stomachs. and Is delicious to the taste.
Try a bottle Of Vinol with the
understanding that your money will
be returned IL 1t does not help you.

Thanksgiving Day was national
institution during the Revolutionary
War, and was annually recommend
ed by Congress-; but after a general
Thanksgiving for peace in 1884, there
was no observance until 1889, when
President Washington, by request of
Congress, recommended a thanksgiv-
ing for the adoption of the constitu-
ton. In 1915 day of THANKSGIVING
for the restoration Of peace was rec
commended by President Madison.
During the early part OF the CEN
tury thanksgiving remained an insti-
tuition peculiar to New England, but
was not always held either on the
same day or in the same month, each
state appointing it's own day. Proc
iamations recommending special days
OF Thanksgiving for victories in the
Civil War were issued by President
Lincoln in 1862 and 1868, and in
1854 he appointed the national pro-
clamation. Since that time 1t has
been customary to celebrate Thanks
giving Day throughout the United
States on the last Thursday in No
vember.

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion Of the ear.
There Is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness Is caused by an
inflamed condition Of the Eustachian
tube. When this tube is infamed
you have a rumbling sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it Is en-
tirely closed, deafness Is the result.
and unless the Inflammation can be-
taken out and this tube restored to
its normal condition, hearing will be
destroyed forever; nine cases out OF
ten are caused by catarrn, which Is
nothing but an inhamed condition Of
the mucous surfaces.

History OF Thanksgiving in America.

The first observance Of Thanksgiv-
ing Day in America was in st. Johns,
Newfoundland, in 1921, the day being
set apart by the first settlers to give
thanks for the safe arrival on the
Island after long and stormy pas
sage.
In New England the Puritan faith
ers, who had abolished Christmas as
Popish festival. originated Thanks
giving Day about 1851 in order that
they have a day to take the place Of
Christmas for religious and other
festivities.
History states that in February,
1851, the colony at Charlestown,
Mass, was reduced to The very point
OF starvation, and when a vessel with
supplies arrived from England a day
of public Thanksgiving and rejoicing
was ordered by the Governor. This
Is considered to have been the first
thanksgiving day held in America
During the following year freuuent
days Of Thanksgiving were appointed
IN the New England colonies, some
times twice in one year and for sne-
ctal reasons-a victory over the In.
dlans, the arrival Of a ship with col
onists or provisions, or some other
happy event. Later the day came tn
be set apart in the autumn or the
early winter tO piva thanh. e A.,
