 Church History Interesting.
 Al very interesting history of the church written by James Shepard of 159 Lake street, this city, shows that it was first established as Christ church in NewiG gton in 179S In 1926 this church was disbanded and the building was sold. The bishop sail that the money for the sale of this building should go for the erec- ton of the nearest Episcopal church
 
 beginning of St. Marks church which was built in 1886, a wooden structure on East Main street near the ElihU Burritt school. The first rector ot St. Marks was Rev. Nathaniel Shel- don Wheaton. In 1849 the present structure was built and the first church was moved to Myrtle street having been sold to the Catholics o1 St. Mary's church for a parochia' school. Later the Russell & Erwin company bought the property. Now it is occupied by the Screw corpora ton.
 Growth of the Church. The first rector of the present church on Washington and West Main streets was Rev. Alexander Ca pron.
 In connection with the history of the Episcopal church of New Britain, 1t is interesting to note that in 1772, there were but three persons of this belief. Now there are over 700.

Don't imagine that the doctor can

to care for yourself. II is not fair to
the doctor to ask him to do the whole
thing with few little pills. What
you do from day to day has more to do
with your health than any medicine
can possibly have, and plenty Of sub
stdntlal food, sleep and air constitute
a daily dose that should never be over
