ABRAHAM LINCOLN's UNHAPPY LOT
He Enjoyed Life's Good Things, but
Got Few of Them.

hh0 W. 'Oo" "At
Got Few of Them.
Mr.. Lincoln was one Of the rare
takers who could always point a NOR
al with an adjoining tale taken out of
his own experience. Everybody has
experience if he only knows it. Most
Of us are so much in the habit Of TAX
ing in wisdom and fun through the
printed page or the story as another
a tells it that we lack the capacity
to see it for ourselves.
The story teller is the man who finds
his own material. An old southern
politician was moralizing thus a few
nights ago and eulogizing the man the
South used to dislike:
when Lincoln first came to Wash
ington l went to see him, so p~rejudiced
against him beforehand that no man
with less genius could have overcome
it. / left that first interview his
friend. No man ever came under the
charm of Lincoln's personality with
out respecting him, and, if allowed,
loving him.
lone day, after we had become fair
ly good friends, / told him Of my early
prejudice.
"'Mr. Lincoln / said, L had heard
every mean thing on earth about you
except one. / never heard that you
were too fond Of the pleasures of life.'
Mr. Lincoln sat for a moment strok-
ing his long cheek thoughtfully, and
then he drawled out in his peculiar
Western voice:
THAT reminds me of something
that a boy said TO me when / was
about 10 ear old.
"'Once in awhile my mother used
to get some sorghum and some ginger
and mix us up a batch of gingerbread.
1t wasn't often, and it was our biggest
treat.
"'One day / smelled it and came in
to the house to get my share while it
was hot. / found that she had baked
me three gingerbread men, and / took
them out under a hickory tree to eat
them.
There was a family nea rs that
was a little poorer than we were, and
their boy came along as l sat down.
ABE" he said, edging close, "gim.
me a man."
81 gave him one. He crammed it
into his mouth at two bits and looked
at me while l bit the legs from my
first one.
"'"Abe." he said, gimme that
other'n."
~ wanted ii, but gave it to him,
and as it followed the first one I said:
"'You seem to like gingerbread
"'"Abe," he said earnestly. II don't
s'pose there's anybody on this earth
likes gingerbread as well as 1 do" and
drawing a sigh that brought up
crumbs, II don't s'pose there's any
body gets less OF it,"
And the old congressman said Mr..
Lincoln looked as though the subject
was ended-Chattanooga News

took the flesh off. as one might say,
the reversed rays put it On again,
don't you see? As for the fate of the
staiwart young fellow, that, of course,
is a mere matter of conjecture. The
secluded nature of the house and
grounds showed that their first pro-
prjetor evidently desired privacy, at
least. The house was supposed to
have been built in the time of Charles
H., and for years it was said to have
been haunted, and that is why DR..
Finch got it SO cheaply. I surmise
that the young fellow took some risks,
and was caught where he shouldn't
have been, so they put that placard on
him, walled him up and thus smoth-
cred him. We never found anything
about the house to show who built it,
so, perhaps the owner of it did not
care to leave a record"
"And the remarkable DR.. Finch,
where is he now?"
"Ah, who can tell? He died three
weeks since, and there was not n
word about him in the papers.'-De.
