Anecdote of President lincoln,

The following story is told of President
Lincoln: One afternoon as he was walk
ing through Lafayette square, Washing
ton, he noticed young man who was
using sulphurous language in a manner
calculated to alarm the natives. Mr..
Lincoln stopped the young man and ask
ed what the trouble was. Not knowing
Mr.. Lincoln, the young fellow said that
a blankcty-blank clerk in the Treasury
Department had had him trotting there
for months to collect small note and he
couldn't get blankety-blank cent out of
him.
THAT is pretty bad" said Mr.. Lin
coin. but I'll tell you what will do. If
you will promise me to give up using pro-
fame words l will guarantee to collect
the note for YOU"
After little further talk the PROPOSE
tion was agreed TO. The young man pro-
duced the note and handed 1t to Mr..
Lincoln, who wrote on the back, "a. Lin
coin" When it was given back to the
collector and his eyes fell on the name
he unconsciously mumbled, "Well, I'll be
ID" then quickly apologized to the
President, who shook his hand, cautioned
him to remember the compact, and then
resumed his afternoon STROLL
1t is needless to say that the note was
promptly liluidated when next presented.

DliZZaru is CfauleQ
In the very home of the storm king.
Medicine Hat is n town of 1000, is
very primitive and questionable, and
is situated in Il deep depression with
bluffs surrounding it on all sides. 1t
has been APPLY lilened to n small lump
of butter in huge butter bowl. The
Canadian Pacific Railroad enters the
town through n narrow ravine, strikes
straight across the sunkcn valley and,
gradually climbing along the side of the
western bluff, comes out once more up-
on the prairie. While Medicine Hat Is
more widely known because of its con-
nection With our weather reports than
for any other reason, 1t is of consid-
cradle Importance as railroad and
trade center for a large section of the
surrounding country. Ii Is divisional
point on the Canadian Pacific and is
the junction point for line stretching
away into the kootenay district at the
southwest II is also the head of nav
igation on the Saskatchewan river and
Is commercial center for very large
area of ranching country.
The weather station is in charge of a
typical Westerner, Walter Crosskill by
name, just such character rs the art
list loves to picture. While voyaglng
about the world on schooner he stud
led astronomy as n pastime; has pros
pected through the entire length and
breadth of the mountains of British
Columbia; has fought Indians and half
breeds; has been rancher and trader,
and is now not only weather observer
but town magistrate. He is also car

Epigrams by LINCOLN.

Let none falter who thinks he is right
If slavery is not wrong, then nothing
is wrong.
Come what will, will keep my faith
with friend and foe.
All that am, all that hope to be, l
eve to my angel mother.
There is no grievance that is fit OBJ
Ject of redress by mob law.
This country, with its institutions. be-
longs to the people who inhabit it.
For thirty years have been temper
ance man, and am too old to change.
No man is good enough to govern an
other without that others consent.
This government must be preserved, in
spite of the acts of any man or set of
men.
Slavery is founded in the selflshness of
mans nature; opposition to it, in his love
of justice.
III | live. this accused system of rob
berry and shame in orr treatment of the
Indians shall be reformed.
In law 1t is good policy never to plead
what YOU need not, lest YOU obige your
self to prove what you cannot.
Understanding the spirit of our institu
tons to aim at the elevation of men,
am opposed to whatever tends to degrade
them.
The reasonable man has long since
agreed that intemperance is one of the
greatest, if not the greatest of all evils
among mankind.
Many free countries have lost their lib
erty. and ours may lose hers; but, if she
shall, be it my proudest plume, not that 1
was the last to desert, but that l never

Hall Bishop Valentine!
When Lincoln Was in Congress.

Former Gov. William A. Newell, who
had the rare distinction of being Gov
ernor of two States-New Jersey and
Washingtoa-writes in the March Sue
cess of his romantic experience as Con-
gresham in lS49 when he originated the
life-saving service by offering resolu-
ton in the House of Representatives to
appropriate money to save lives imperiled
by the sea. Fellow members of Congress
at that session We're John Quincy Adj
ans and Abraham Lincoln. Mr.. Newell
says: Various objections were made to
my motion, the strongest of which was
that the scheme was impracticable. l
laid the matter before a great many
Senators and members, speaking to them
in person. EN-PrcSident John Quincy
Adams occupied n seat just behind mine,
and. after the reading of the resolution
by the clerk, leaned forward and said to
me, L would like to see that resolution
sent for it and handed 1t to him. He
read 1t over carefully. and, handing it
to me, said, with smile: 1T is good. l
hope it will prevail Abraham Lincoln
also read it, and said: Newell, that is a
good measure. | will help you. | am
something of live saver myself. for I
invented scow that righted itself on
the Mississippi sandbars."

Coarse Valentines.

Many n sensitive child's feelings have
been hurt by receiving n coarse valentine
ridiculing, it may be, some infirmity or
fault the child is faithfully trying to over
come. Miss Harrison, in her mothers
class in this city, urged mothers to dis
countenance in every way that they could
the buying or sending of coarse, vulgar
caricatures known MS comic Valentines -
The right attitude" said she, "of the
child Is that of reverence or looking up.
All that takes the bloom off of life in
jures the child's growth. Comic valen-
tines are not only coarse and low, but
they give wrong, exaggerated impressions
of life to the child. and thereby injure his
intellectual growth as well as his spirit
ual fineness of fiber.
ITO prevent Il desire for them, begin by
telling the story Of the life of the man
who was SO good and true and unselfsh,
whose aims were so high and whose pur-
pose was SO noble that after his death
the people who had known him or who
lad known of him loved to speak of him
as st. Valentine. Next show how it grad

kens of affection, messages of cheer and

ST. yalentine,s Death.

Feb. II, known to all Americans as st.
Valentines day, is the anniversary of
the death of the saint and martyr. 1t is
not clear why the peculiar character of
the day observances in the nineteenth
century had origin as mark of respect
to him. 1t is more likely that some such
observance obtained long before the ad-
vent of the saint and became known by
his name merely from the fact that he
was put to death on that day. He was
first cruelty beaten with clubs by order of
Claudius, emperor of Rome, and was
then beheaded. His real name was Val
entinus, and It was several hundred years
after his death that the College of Car
dinals at Rome canonized him as saint.
There are also two other saints of the
same name, Nalentinus of lnteramna,
bishop and martyr: and Valcntinus,
bishop of Passau. The latter hourished
in the fifth century.

lkisIilct.

There was once Il man who eschewed
everything which could be considered
immoral or dangerous. He did not
drink smoke or chew tobacco; he was
a tea-and- colfee-totaller; lie did not be-
lieve in dancing or cards; he never
drove Il horse that could so faster than
five miles an hour; he did not read
novels because he was afraid they
would keep him awake al night. Then
one d.y he licked the flap of an en-
velope in an incautious manner. and
it scratched his tongue and gave him
blood-poisoning. and he died.
Moral: There is something in Kis-
Washington Times.

penter and he builds houses when the
weather is such that he can leave it
without attention. Crosskill is 20 years
of age. but looks not more than 90. He
is not rs polished and well dressed as
his fellow scientists of the city, but
finds jeans, collarless shirt and heavy
boots very satisfactory costume.
CrosSkill twice each day sends re-
ports 10 Chicago, Washington, Mime
apolis and to Canadian points. His re-
liability has been tested on many &C.
casons. Crosskills office Is small
story and a half building, well back
from the street. And not only is it his
office, but carpenter shop and living
rooms. as well us the town court
house.
Weather conditions at Medicine 4
are peculiar ana full of surprises. ON
naturally expects to find the thermom-
eter showing points below zero more
than anything else during the winter
months, and also to find lower temper
ature registered than ut any other place
on the American continent Such is
not the case, however though it gets
pretty cold in Medicine Hat at the
right time of year In the Northern
States a temperature of 80 degrees be
low zero is often recorded and 1t has in
n nurNber of instances been lower than
that. At Medicine Hat the lowest
point touched was SO degrees, during
the past six years. In summer 1t gets
fearfully hot at times, in spite of its
northern location. One hundred de-
grees above zero Is not unusual in June
and July which are the hottest
months. During the year 1900 there
We're but three months which showed
Il temperature below January.
February and March December show
ed the lowest point to have been %
degrees above zero.
The average snowfall at Medicine
Hat Is ten inches for the year. Snow
seldom lies on the ground longer than
day or two and, strange as it may
seem of such Il northern locality,
sleighs are practically unknown. Such
rapid changes of temperature as are
experienced nowhere else in America
are responsible for this.
1t is certainly Il queer country-a
country of strange contradictions and
odd conditions. To think that the
"home of the cold wave" is more often
warm than cold seems queer enough,
but it remains a fact nevertheless.

The new Republican Governor of
Iowa has just given the Chinese cult
of protectionists seismic shock. In
his inaugural address he uttered the
heretical statement that protection
was established for man and not man
for protection" Now, anybody with
nh ounce of wit can see that such
view of protection is subversiye of the
entire system MS it stands In the Ding
ley act. Protection of the Mckinley
and Dingley kinds is made for the one
man as against the other nine men. To
adopt the idea advanced by Gov. Cum
Minis would speedily reduce tariff leg
islation to the level of the old Demo
cratic doctrine of a tariff for reveneue
only, with incidental protection to those
industries only that could not survive
the competition of foreign cheap labor
and free raw materials.-Atlanta Con

this saints birthday. See that the desire
thus aroused finds outlet with the child
in the right kind of valentines purchased
and made. Let him send them to the
people he loves. The valentines which
are made by the child are, as n rule, more
healthful than those that are purchased
by the mother for him."
Miss Harrison then showed several
pretty ways of folding and cutting the
old-fashioned valentines used in our
grandmothers' days,
If this plan is carried out" continued
she, II think you will have little need to
forbid the purchasing of the coarser arti,
Gle. The incongruousncss of the thing
will show itself to the child. Remember
that the grotesque leads into the coarse;
the coarse into the impure: the impure
into the obscene. Western Rural.
