With nearly all medicines put up for
sale through druggists, one has to take
the makers say-so alone as to their cura-

not that of a diSintereSted party and
accordingly is not to be given the same
credit as if written from disintereSted
motives. DR.. Pierce's medicines, how

exception to this rule. Their claims to
the confidence of invalids does not rest
solely upon their makers say so or

until the fatal fourteenth of April
1865, Abraham Lincoln lived for his
country and he was ready to die for it.
His nomination for the presidency
had been predicted before he had any
aspirations for that office. When the
subject was first broached to him he
said: Whats the use of talking of
me for the presidency whilst we have
such men as Seward Chase and
others, who are so much better known
to the people, and whose names are
so intimately associated with princi-
pies OF the Republican party? Every
body knows them; nobody scarcely
outside Of Illinois knows me. So d I
am not insensible to the compliment
you pay me, but there is no such
good luck in store for me as the pres
idency of the United States"
The good luck" was on the side of
the United States when Abraham Lin
coin was finally elected president
Not in all the union was there a man
better fitted to hold that office during
the perilous days of the civil war.
and when the war was over the people
felt that Lincoln was the only man
who could heal the wounds Of the
nation and bring real peace and har-
mony out of the bitter strife that had
lasted for four fearful years. His
assassination filled the land with the
gloomiest forebodings and plunged the
country into the bitterest grief It had
ever felt over the death 81 IN a,

A GREAT AMERICAN
Inspiration in the Life and Character of Abraham
Lincoln-His Wonderful Political Career

The twelfth day of February. in the
year 1903, was a day of great import
to the United States, for it was on
that day that Abraham Lincoln came
Into the world, says writer in the
Pittsburg Dispatch. The place of his
birth, unmarked to-day save for a rude
dagstaff, was in Hardin county, Ken
lucky, known now as LaRue county.
No great man was ever born into a
humber home.
Thomas Lincoln the father of Abra-
ham, had married a handsome girl
named Nancy Hanks in 1906, and
there was a little girl named Sarah
1n the family when the little Abraham
was born.
The homely little boy, born in the
rude log cabin of single room, that
eventful day, came to an inheritance
Of poverty and toll, neither of which
gave him a great deal of concern be-
cause he had also inherited a wonder
fully cheerful spirit, and he had the
happy faculty of seeing the humorous
side of every situation in life.
Lincoln was boy of but seven
years when his father who had some.
thing of restless spirit, followed a
brother Of his. named Joseph, to
spencer county, Indiana, and located

ing in the brief Black Hawk war,
Lincoln kept store in New Salem, Illi-
nois, and it was in this place that he
fell in love and became engaged to
pretty Ann Rutledge, a girl of seven
teen years, who died soon after the
engagement. This was a sharp blow
to man of Lincoln's affectionate ma
ture, and years later he could not
speak Of 1t without tears in nis eyes.
1t was after leaving New Salem and
while studying and practicing law in
Springfield that Lincoln met Mary
Todd, who became his wife. She was
of somewhat jealous and exacting
disposition, and there were plenty of
lovers quarrels during the courtship.
Indeed. the engagement was broken,
but 1t was finally renewed and the
couple were married on the fourth
day Of November in the year 1912, and
began their married life in Spring
field.
It would take many columns to give
anything like comprehensive ac-
count Of the political career of Abra-
ham Lincoln. It was almost newt
able that a man OF his force of car
acter, his patriotism and his interest
In the welfare of the nation should
drift into politics. We find him run
ming as q candidate for the State A.
sembly Of Illinois in 1882 and suffering
a defeat that did not depress him 81

he and a partner bought the store +

announced himself as a candidate for
the State Assembly, and there are old
men in Illinois who like to tell OF the
queer but forceful speeches they heard
him make as he rode about the coun-
try electioneering for himself He did
so with triumphant results this time,
Tor he was elected, and for eight
years he was member of the State
Assembly of Illinois,
Then his friends sought to have him
become a candidate for governor, but
this honor he refused because he had
his eye on seat in Congress and to
Congress he went in the year 1S47,
after having been defeated rs a can
didate for the office of Congressman
in 1912. After leaving Congress- Lin
coin felt that he had had enough Of
politics; he decided to devote himself
entirely to the practice of law, and he
adhered to this resolution for some
years. Then the slavery question be-
came more and more one of public
importance and political discussion.
and Lincoln felt that he must again
enter the political field. The repeal
of the Missouri compromise set him
on fire, and it was a flame that ex-
pired only with his life. From the
time that he re-entered politics in 1851

on a farm in the wilderness within a
mile or two of Gentryville.
Abraham Lincoln was nine years
old when his mother died in her home
In the Indiana wilderness. and was
buried in the rude casket her grief
stricken husband had fashioned with
his own hands. Left a widower with
two little children to care for, 1t was
but natural that he should want to
give them a second mother, and at
ter fifteen months of widowhood he
Jared back to Kentucky to marry a
young widow with three children,
Sally Bush Johnson, who was far
removed from the typical stepmother.
Lincoln grew to manhood in In
diana, seeing little of the great out
side world. with the exception of such
deeting glimpses as he caught of 1t
while working as boatman and ferry
man on the Ohio and Mississippi riv-
ers. He earned the first dollar he
ever possessed while working as
,boatman. When he was about 10
years Of age he hired out ito work
the front oars" on a boat filed with
produce, bound for New Orleans. He
was paid the munifcent sum Of $8
= month and found" for his services
while on this trip. This was his first
glimpse Of tho world Of which he was
to form such m important part in the
years to come.
