L1NcOLNs MELANCHOLY.
His Sympathetic Nature and His Early
NIiafnrtunea.

HIS Sympathetic. Nature ana His Early
MisfOrtunes.
Those who saw much Of Abraham Lincoln
during the later years of his life, were greatly
impressed with the expression Of profound
Inelencholy his face always wore in repose.
Mr.. Idrcoln was of d peculiarly sympathe.
tic and Kindly nature. These strong charaS.
teristics influenced, very happily, as it proved.
\ his entire political career; They would not
seeh1, at first glance, to be efficient aids to
political succass; but in the peculiar emer.
gency which Lincoln, in the providence OF
God, was called to meet. no vessel of com-
mon clay could possibly have become the
1'chosen Of the Lord.n
Those acquainted with him FROM boyhood
knew that early griefs tinged his whole life
with sadness. bis partner in the grocery
business at Salem, was 'sUncle'' Billy Green,
Of Tollula, ILL.,, who used at night, when the
customers were few, to hold the grammar
while Lincoln rseited his lessons.
1t was to sympathetic ear Lincoln told
the story Of his love for sweet Ann Rutlidge;
and he, in return, offered what comfort he
could when poor Ann died. and Lineoln'S
great heart nearly broke.
AFTER Ann died, !" says "Unclen Billy, ION
stormy nights, when the wind blew the rain
against the roof, Abe would set thar in the
grocery, his elbows on his knees, his face in
his hands, and the tears 'runnin' through his
say, Abe don't cry;' and he'd look up an
say, 4 can't help it, Bill, the rains fallin'
on aer.'"
There are many who can sympathize with
this overposVering grief, as they think OF q
lost loved one. when ''the rains fallin' on
her." What adds poignaney to the grief
sometimes is the thought that the lost one
might have been saved.
Fortunate, indeed, is William johnson, of
Corona, Z. l., builder, who writes June g,
1890: t'Last February, on returning from
church one night, my daughter complained
Of having pain in her ankle. The pain
gradually extended until her entire limb was
swollen and very painful to the touch. We
called physician, who after careful exam
nation, pronounced it disease Of the kidneys
Of long standing. All we could do did not
seem to benefit her until we tried Warmers
Safe Cure; from the first she commenced to
improve. When she commenced taking it
she could not turn over IN bed, and could
Just move her hands little, but to-day she
Is as well as she ever was. I believe I owe
tho recovery of my daughter to its USE"

A simple way to fumigate room is
to heat an iron shovel quite hot and then
pour vinegar upon it, drop by drop. The
steam rising from this is disinfectant.
Doors and windows should be opened
that it may escape.
In damping clothes for ironing, use
warm water as hot as you can bear the
hands in; sprinkle fine, fold smooth, roll
up tight, and they will iron much easier.
The hot water penetrates more readily
and you do not need to dampen so much
as with cold water.
A nice table is often injured by some
thing warm being placed on it, which
leaves whitish mark. To remove this
pour some lamp oil on the spot, and rub
hard with a soft cloth; then pour on a
little spirits of wine, or some cologne
water and rub dry with another cloth.

on the 9th OF October, at Nankin. after an i'll
ness Of two weeks. Mr.. Abbey left Toledo

deceased was well known in Toledo, having
been active in Y. M. @. A. and other good
work. Mr.. Brinkerhof short time ago re-
celved letter from Mr.. Abbey, in which
much pleasure was anticipated from visit
to Toledo, which would occur at the conclu-
sion of his ten years stay insOhina. A.wife
and two children are left to mourn the loss Of
a husband and father, Bee. ~
Rev. Abbey is q former Napoleon minister,

CHILDREN's LITERATURE.
What "St. Nicholas" has Done for
Boys and Girls.

Victor Hugo calls this "the woman's century,"
and he might have added that 1t is the children's
century WE'LL for before in the worlds his
tory has 80 much thought been paid to children
their schools, their books, their pictures and their
toys. Childhood, as we understand it, is q recent
discovery.
Up to the time Of the issue of the st. Nicholas
Magazine seventeen years ago literature and child
ren's magazines were almost contradictory terms,
but the periodical started out with the idea that
nothing was too good for children; the result has
been Juvenile magazine genuine with conscient-
ious purpose, greatest writers contributing to
It, with the best artists and engravers helping to
beautify it,-and everything tuned TO the keynote
of youth.
II has been the special aim of St. Nicholas to sup
plant unhealthy literature with stories of living
and healthful interest. 1t will not do to take fac-
mating bad literature out Of boys hands, and give
them In its place Mrs. Barbauld and Peter Farley,
or the work of writer's who think that any "good-y'
talk will do for children but they must have strong
interesting reading, with the blood and sinew of
real life In IT,. -reading that will waken them to
closer observation of the best things about them.
In the seventeen years of its life st Nicholas has
not only elevated the children but 1t has also elevat
ed the tone of contemporary chidrens literature as
WELL Many Of its stories, like Mrs. Burnetts "Mt-
tie Lord Fauntleroy,n have become classc., 1t is
not too much to say that almost every notable young
peoples story now produced in America first seeks
the light in the pages of that magazine.
The year 1891 will prove once more that "no house,
hold where there are children is complete without
St Nicholas" j. T. Trowbridge, Noah Brooks,
Charles Dudley Warner. and many well known
writer's to contribute during this coming year
One cannot put the spirit Of st. Nicholas into
prospectus, but the publishers are glad to send q
iul announcement OF the features for 1891 and a
single sample copy to the address of any person
mentiong this notice. The magazine costs $500 u

A man was caught on the Nickel Plate
bridge across Rocky River near Cleveland
last Saturday by an approaching train and
to avoid being run over. he went down all
right and soon rose to the surface of the wa
ter and was rescued by q man with row
boat. The only injury he received besides
shaking up was severe bruise on the right
side caused by his watch which was smashed
fiat. The water where he jumped is but six
feet deep but the bottom soft and sandy
which no doubt accounts for no worse results.

with the Lincoln History and Kennans thrilling
articles on the Siberian Exile System. One great
