FROM 1858 TO 1914

This brief history Of pioneer doc
tor In Washington county. Ohio. tells
Of service to humanity that continued
without interruption for fiftysix long
years.
The doctor in the early years Of his
practice, learned that even in the days
before the Civil war the people needed
q good tonic medicine, just as they do
today. AS was the practice in those
early years. he went to the doctor he
had studied under ard was given for
mula for making tonic from herbs.
roots, barks, iron and other medical
ingredients. From the very first. this
tonic gave wonderful results. People
that were weakened by disease. old
age and overwork were quickly made
vigorous and strong after taking few
bottles of the tonic. Sufferers from
stomach. liver and kidney ailments, as
we'll as loss Of appetite, soon found re.
lief from their ailments when they
took the tonic and In many cases com.
plete cures resulted. As the years
rolled BY, the old doctor tried the vari.
GUS new tonics as they came out. but
never found anything that would give
MIN tue bdLuc kOOu iCSdttS 40 hio OWh
preparation. So up to the very time
OF his death in 1914 at the ripe old age
Of IS years, he gave this good old tried
and true medicine to his patients.
His two sons became doctors and
they also used this tonic in their reg.
ular practice with the same good re.
suits as their father had.
This great tonic medicine is now
placed on the market fer the good OF
the people and is known as OLD HlCK-
DRY TONIC. 1t can be had at any first
class drug store.

Hampton, Va.-The engagement is
announced here of X. Nathaniel Dett,
director of the Hampton Choral union
and director of vocal music at Hamp-
ton institute, and Miss Helen Elise
Smith, planiste, of New York. Miss
Smith is one of the directors OF the
Martin Smith School OF Music In New
York. She holds two diplomas from
the Institute OF Music Art. Of which
Walter Damrosch is the director. Miss
Smith has appeared with David Man
mes and other leading artists.
Last May she was one OF the FIVE
artists presented In the Hampton insti-
tute musical festival She also has the
distinction of being the original plan
iste of the Music Settlement School
For Colored People in New York.
The genius, being creative, is suffi-
clent unto himself, but the artist is a
happy composition of native ability and
superior training. Miss Helen Elise
Smith is an artist.
AS little child she evinced remark
able aptitude for music and at eleven
was regarded very promising piano
student. When her musical education
had got beyond the ordinary instruc-
tor she easily passed the very rigid en-
trance requirements for the Institute
of Musical Art of New York and after
studying there for seven years gradu-
ated with honor.
Sigismund Stojowski, the favorite
pupil of Paderewski, was her piano
teacher, and her instructors in har-
mony, theory and composition are rec
ognized authorities in their particular
lines. Mr.. FL. E. Krehbiel, formerly
music critic for the New York Trib-
une, and other well known critics have
emphatically expressed their apprecia-
tion of her Interpretation OF difficult
compositions.
Mr.. Dett is a graduate of Oberiin
conservatory. He is not only young
pianist who possesses unusual tech
meal ability, but he is also promising
composer, whose work has already
commanded the attention and praise OF
the musical world on account of its
originality. its finish and its heart ap-
peal.
Some of Mr.. Dett's best known work
includes Magnolia Suite" an the Bot
TOMS" Hampton, My Home by the
Sea-" Listen to the Lambs" etc.
