Lincoln and the widoH.

During all that dreadful period when
the civil war was ravaging the country
Lincoln held the reins Of the govern
ment, and, although worn out with un-
ceasing toll, he never neglected an op-
portunity to help those who suffered.
One day poor woman, whose tears
had worn burrows down her cheeks gain
ed an audience with Lincoln, and in q
few words related the sad tale Of her
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. y
The poor woman went away light of
heart, only te 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
per to the afflicted woman, saying:
Now you have one and have one of
the two boys left That is no more than
right" Weeping with joy, the poor
mother blessed Lincoln and hurried out
to send her precious order. -Harper e
