During all that dreadful period when
the civil war was ravaging the country
Lincoln held the rcins of the govern
ment, and, although worn out with I'M
ceasing toll he never neglected an OPP
portunitv to help those who suffered.
One day poor woman, whose tears
had worn burrows down her checks gain
ed an audience with Lincoln, and in a
few words related the sad tale of he1
husband, who had fought in the Union
army only to lose his life, and of her
three boys, who were then fighting. She
requested the discharge of her eldest
boy, that she might have some one to
support her. Lincoln's heart responded
to the appeal, and he replied, Ger
tainly if you have given US all and
your prop has been taken away you are
justly entitled to one Of your boys. "
The poor woman went away light Of
heart, only to return later, tearfully
begging the release of her second son.
The discharge of the first son had come
too late He was killed before it reached
him. Sadly Lincoln sat down and wrote
the requisite order for the release of the
second son, and rising, handed the pa
Pr to the afflicted woman, saying:
"Eow you have one and have one of
tie two boys left. That is no more than
right. Weeping with JOY, the poor
mother blessed Lincoln and hurried cut
to send her precious order. Harper 8

Drudeery Required of the President.

In The Century @. G. Buel has a pa
per on "Our Fellow Citizen of the White
House." in which he writes of the off.
cial cares of the president. In opening
his article Mr.. Buel says
A president who should not carry in
to the White House relish for drudg-
cry, business habits Of the incest dis
elimination and a constitution of iron
would be president only in name, even
as regards his more important duties
His signature on the papers which he is
told will not otherwise be legal might
be as good as the custodian of his bank
account would require, but within the
meaning of the law it would be as often
as not a moral forgery. Yet no COM
plant should be offered oIA5his account
Presidents are made for better or for
worse. Such as they are in natural facul-
ties and strength, so they must serve,
some of them leaning on official advisers
and bureaucratic clerks in every step
they take and some of them putting the
stamp of their own individuality on the
papers and acts which make up an ad-
ministration.
When president elect, facing the
chief justice, has repeated the constitu-
tional oath, 81 do solemnly swear that
l will faithfully execute the office of
president Of the United States and will,
to the best Of my ability, preserve, pro-
tect and defend the constitution Of the
United States, " he has indel. ured him
