SATURDAY EVENING, JANUARY II.
The Poverty Of Garfield and Lincoln.

The Poverty Of Garfield and Lincoln.
When Gen. Garfield was on his way TO
Washington to be insugurated as president
of the United States, John B, we'll
known public man from Ashtabula, board
ed the train. He had been one of Garfield
pupils when the latter taught in little log
school house in the Dackwoods. As the
teacher boarded with Mr.. BIS mother,
they had been more intimate than IS usual
with master and scholar.
MANY significant stories were told when
thew met which illustrated the hard strug-
gles of the future president in his youth.
One was that. on some occasion he was in
yited 10 a country party, but on the very
day it was to take place he split at the knee
one leg of his trousers. He had but one
pair of very coarse Jeans, and no money 10
buy another. Garfield had set his heart on
going to the merry making, and was bitter
~ disappointed.
"You 90 to bed" said his hostess, land
let me see what can do"
The teacher obeyed, and in an hour re-
ceived his trousers so neatly darned tnat IL
was impossible to find where they had been
broken. He thanked her so earnestly that
the good woman cried out
"Never mind, Mr.. Garfield! When you re
o great man in the Ohio legislature, no.
body'll ask how many pairs Of trousers you
had when you taught up here in the Re
serve!" ), !.
This little incident recalls story told OF
the other martyred president In 1880
travelling pedler came one evening TO a
cabin in illinois and asked the farmers
wife if be could stay at the house all night.
"We can feed your BEAST" was the ans
wer, shut we cannot lodge you, unless you
are willing to sleep with the hired man"
Lets have look at him first" said the
pedler.
The woman pointed to the side OF Inc
house, where lank, sx.foot man, in rag
ped but clean clothes, was stretched on the
grass reading book. "He'll do" said the
stranger.
The "hired man" was Abraham Lincoln.
Youths Companion.

The GAZETTE circulates among people who
consult its advertising columns before pulchss-

to contiguous cities 10 make purchases. The al.
vantagcs of advertising in the GAZETTE are
apparent and need no further demonstration
The GAZETTE will continue to furnish the
news kilograms of the New York Associated Press
and of Reuters European Agency, while its

latest and most reliable news from the capital O!
the nation.
