Lincoln's Way Of reasine.

In his home city. Springfield, H., a
story is told of Lincoln which has
never appeared in print. His house
had long needed a fresh coat of paint,
but political campaign was in prog
ress and ABE" had no time to look up
painters.
During his absence for six weeks of
circuit-riding in his one-horse shay.
Mrs. Lincoln had the matter attended
to, and on his return when he drove
up to the little cottage on 9Th street
she came out on the steps to welcome
him. Paying not the slightest atten-
ton to her, Lincoln surveyed the
house from foundation to caves in a
dazed manner and then drove to the
next door, and called to his neighbor:
Say! Can you tell me where Abe
Lincoln lives?''
"You old goose! come home and be-
have yourself" laughed Mrs. Lincoln.

quickly around the small room and
realized that the thing was gone. And
knew, of course, In moment what
that meant.
The ghost of Great-aunt Janet had
chosen that night for walking!
Why? Was she such sympathetic
old creature that she had guessed my
secret? And could she give me any
help or any advice? l remembered
distinctly what the colonel had said;
how he had suggested that the old
lady came only when she was able
to help lover That was my des-
perate case; and on an impulse l de-
termined that / would seek her and
take ghostly counsel from her. l re-
membered that she haunted the up

| went up beyond the floor on which
my room was situated and found my
self in darkness. Then, suddenly,
even as 1 tried to mutiie my footsteps,
l saw dim light in the distance
the light of candle. Down the
length Of the corridor there advanced
toward me the stately small figure of
Great-aunt Janet; SO real that she
might have stepped straight out of
her frame downstairs. She held the
candle high, and thought, looking at
her as she advanced, what presenta-
BILE old lady she was.
1t took me moment or two to find
my tongue. and then, fearing that she
might disappear before had had time
to state my errand, | clasped my
hands and blurted out what had to
say.
"Great7aunt Janet! Sweet Great
aunt Janet! Have mercy upon me and
help me! l love the dearest girl in
all the world-and her name is Dora
and l haven't dared to tell her so
before. If you can show me the
way"
''Jack, dear. If you would hold the
candlestick-"
caught the candlestick-an Dora.
After breathless interval. during
which the lovely little face had been
pressed close to mine again and
again, and had seen, even by that
dim candle light, look in the blue
eyes l had never hoped to see, she
gave ..er explanation.
81 was in love myself, Jack. and l
thought there might be some other
unhappy lover who wanted advice or
or consolation. So thought would
be Great-aunt Janet-and 1 dressed
in these things-and l came out

1t is this continual consciousness Of
self that makes us Americans so fear
ful of what our neighbors think of
US, that hampers us in our thought
and that makes us less able to act as

Englishman, for instance, sails along,
calmly ignoring the whole world. This
attitude Is provocative of much hui

do better by himself than the man
who is continually looking from right

Mind your own business and endeav-
or to be what you are made" says
the quotable Thoreau.
That Is what we need to have drum
! med into us from day to day. How
people take our jokes, how they like
the cut Of our frocks or our coats.
what they think of our sitting in the
second balcony instead of the orches-
ira of theater, whether they think
we are affected because we acknowl-
edge liking for Browning-these are
minor matters iAdeed; but it is over
just such trifes that many of us waste
precious moments and more precious
brain matter. Let the man and the
woman shake himself or herself free
from the coils of what they say" or
how 1t looks" Let them be big
enough not to bother about such little
things. Let them think less about
their own persons and more how to
enjoy and profit by and be good in the
big. interesting world of people and
things which is all about them.-Home

MOTHERHOOD.

Come TO my arms, my darling;
Come, for the nightfall is near;
Come, and thy mother shall send thee
To dreamland with never fear.
Come, and thy mother shall sing thee
A lullaby softly and low
Sing thee to rest and to dreamland
IRE darker the day doth grow.
And as thou sleepest, my dear one,
Visions win come 30 her eyes
Visions of thee, strong in manhood,
Noble and gentle and wise.
Her heart will glow at the picture,
Thrilling with joy and with pride,
Yet the tears sadly fall as she presses
Thee close, little one, to her side.
And she knows that always at twilight,
Wherever, wherever thou art,
The same little lullaby, darling,
She'll sing to thee down in her heart.
