THE ADVICE WHICH MARSDEN' :
PRIVATE NOTE OFFERED

obediently took up the pages OF
Marsden's private letter TO my hus-
band, which the art editor had put
into the envelope enclosing the Of
fetal notification that Dicky's illus
trations for the Pennington move
had been rejected by the distinguish
ed author.
Dear Old Boy" the letter be-
gan, in Marsden's accustomed
way. Thought I'd better write
you the real dope on this mess.
Don't go into one Of your usual
spasms over this, though I will
admit it's enough TO make a man
see a snake or two when he's
worked as hard as you have on
those drawings. But you know
what a hen-minded pompOus old
boy Pennington isl gave a lit
tie gasp of surprise at this point,
for 1 never can get over my amaze
ment at the fiippant, unawed way
in which Dicky and his friends
regard the so-called great ones
OF the earth-"and as soon az he
saw your sketches he staged a fit
on the office rug. and declared
himself often you, or words to that
effect.
"Of course, Percy wilted at
once, and crawled at PenningtOn's
feet. asking him is your head on a
charger wouldn't satisfy him. But
Claude. to my surprise. really put
up quite a fight for you, and Pen
nington finally consented 10 see
YOU IN conference Monday. Now.

quality OF the sketches. IL was

after. You see. those sketches I
showat him when he selected you
for the task OF illustrating his

Dream, and the model for that
must have been one tangerine. At
any rate. old Pen fell for her with
a dull thud that Jared the office.
He said she was the ideal type OF

Where in thunder is that other
model? L remember you told Pen
she was absolutely unavailable,
but YOU didn't say whether she
was dead or had married a war
profteer. If the latter, you ought
10 be good looking and fascinat-
ing enough to get her back long
enough for these sketches anyway.
But cheer up, old boy. Penning-
ton isn't the only one. though

traditional lead when I finished It.
Only too we'll did remember whose
charms the fascinating heroine OF

lamenting, even though she had
brought infinite trouble. even trag-

NEAR EAST RELIEF.

Those interested in the Near East
Relief Fund which is being raised in
the United States have allotted To
Henderson county quota of $50,
and have asked that all charitably in
clined people throughout the county
respond in as liberal contributions as
their generosity and magnanimity
will suggest, in the relief Of the starv-
ing people of Armenia. Christ said:
In as much as We have done it unto
these, We have done it unto me-" Da-
vid said, HE that giveth to the poor
lendeth to the Lord, and that which
he hath given will He pay him again"
Another scripture says: blessed is he
that considereth the poor"
Those contributing in response to
this appeal can send or bring their
money to John s. Fielder, cashier
Citizens-Bank Of Lexington, or Robt.
A. Lewis, cashier Central State Bank,
Lexington, who will receive and give
proper receipt for such gifts. It has
been suggested that Sunday, April l6,
be observed as a day for special gifts
to this worthy cause in the churches
of all denominations in the country.

TALKING POLITICS IN NASH
WILLIE.

They are beginning to do some
right lively talking in the Hobbies OF
Nashville hotels-as we noticed last
Monday, and talk seems confined to
the probable chances of Hon. Austin
Peay and Former Governor Bentotn
McMillin. Some say that Austin Peay
will carry the State in the primary
while others regard Benton Mcmillan
as another Moses arisen in the nick Of
time to lead the people of Tennessee
out Of the wilderness in to which they
strayed by following Uncle All Tay-
lor.
Some say that McMillin's candida.
cy is backed by the back-tax wolves
while others 60 SO far as to intimate
that he has repudiated that crowd fol-
whom no living human, regardless Of
race, color or previous condition Of
servitude has the least respect-in.
GLIDING themselves.
The matter is we'll worth investi.
eating and If man is found to be
favored by that gang, let him be ar
, anahema. They must support some
candidate, but il you see the wolves
in lunches, bestowing their praise, be,
ware Of the recipient.
Benton Mcmillan has made an hon.
orable name in Tennessee and the ma.
ton and we are loath to believe that
he would besmirch II by such associa.
ton at this late day.
