AIVNN Kentucky farm where Abra-
NINA ham Lincoln was born,
WSKA will, if all goes well, be
W dedicated to the American
people as a national park.
Its LILO rocky acres in the heart of
the Blue Grass state have been pur-
chased, and an association has been
organized to restore its many natural
beauties.
The log cabin in which the future
president was born was recently res
cued from a cellar at College Poin.,
Long Island, where it had been .igno-
miniously dumped after travelling
about the country as a show. With
imposing ceremoNes, it was carried
back to it's native soil, and restored
to the very spot where Tom Lin
coin, the father, put it's rough tim
bers together. On another part of the
farm, as an antithesis to the hut, and
as illustrative of the height to
which the sol attained from such a
humble origin, it is planned to erect
a memorial structure which will be
an exac reproduction of the White
House at the time Lincoln lived there.
Within its walls will be preserved all
the available historical treasures as
ISOLATED with his name and fame.
The date chosen for the dedication
of the Lincoln farm is especially ap-
propriate, for it marks the Tooth ami
versary Of the birth of the martyred
president. Prominent Americans from
the north, south, east and west are
expected to be present at the exer-
cises. President Roosevelt has &C

THE HUT IN WHICH LINCOLN
WAS BORN.

This log cabin was removed from
the Lincoln farm, in Kentucky, and
carried about the country for some
time by a Snowman. Later it was
dumped ANONYMOUSLY into a cellar
in New York city, from which it
was rescued and restored to its ma
tive state.

cepted the invitation to make the
principal address of the day.
Had the farm not been purchased
when it was for a national park, 1t
might even now have been the site
for a distillery. Because of a spring
on the farm, famous throughout Ken
lucky for the purity of its waters, a
wealthy Louisville whisky manufac-
turer had sought to buy the property
that he might advertise his product
in some such way as this:

litigation in which the farms title
had become entangled was at last
ended, and that it would be sold at

take place, and, as it "a Sunday
and the sale was to be held in the
afternoon of the following day, he
put up at a hotel and took things

although the trains do not run in
that part of Kentucky on Sunday, the
bottles do, and the whisky man drank
long and often in the barroom. Here
he made the acquaintance of a young

NEGLECTED. BAYBERRIES.
Time Was When the Crop Was Eager
ly Harvested.


Years ago when the first frosts had
come Connecticut people went out TO
pick the punches of bayberries to make
the pale green wax candles which
when burning gave out the aromatic
smell OF the leaves that the pickers
crushed in pulling off.
We no longer pick bayberries for
e,mpany candles for the winter time.
Except few romantic souls who gath
er berries enough to make candle OF
two for old memories. few faddists
who want to try to make bayberry can
dies by some discovery or other In n
magazine and some stanch old New
Englanders who love TO get out In the
pastures on crisp fall day-thcse are
all who gather the bayberries now.
Left to themselves, the clumps Of
bushes have spread out and in some
cases overrun whole pastures In some
parts of Connecticut the bushes have
grown very tall.
In Branford. on the coast, there are
almost bayberry trees, as many can be
found growing along the highways ten
feet tall and some even taller. These
bayberries must be very old. You can.
not help wondering how many crops
have been picked off them In years
past.
AS early as I'LL the town records
show that the gathering of bayberries
ON the highways and common was for
hidden before Sept 10. A fine of 10
shillings for each violation was the
penalty. 1t appears that the wax from
the berries was used In making
backing and salve and that bayberry
wax continued an article of. trade in
Branford down to the last fifty years.
Human nature being about the same
one century to another. there was
probably In 1717 u great complaining
of people who picked the berries ''be
fore they were half ripe" or ''got up
mornings before anybody else had a
chance:" hence the regulation aud the
fine.
But what breathless, hurried bay
berry picking 1t must have been the
morning of Sept 15!-Hartford Cou-

HUMAN STOMACH HAS
. BECOME DEGENERATE
Animals Are Healthier Because of Strong
Digestive Apparatus.

An interesting interview was re-
Gently obtained with L. T. Cooper, the
young man whose theory and medi-
cines have created such a sensation
during the past year.
Mr.. Cooper, in speaking of the re-
markable success of his medicine, had
this to say on the subject: "My medi-
cine regulates the stomach. That is
why it is successful. The human stom-
ach today has become degenerate, and
is the cause for most i'll health. In
the horse, the dog, and the wild ami
mails generally, you see no nerve ex-
haustion, no chronic debility. They
are not shut up day after day with
practically no exercise, and they are
not able to stuff themselves with food
when their bodies have not had enough
work to justify 1t. The human race
has been doing this for years, and
look at the result--half the people are
complaining of poor health, not real
illness-just half-sick. tired, Groopy
feeling. They don't really know what
Is the matter with them.

achs. l have proved this with my

the new medicine: "For over seven
years | suffered with catarrh of the
stomach, and for the past year l was
lame with rheumatism. I attributed
this to my stomach trouble, as my cir
culation was very poor. What food I
ate would turn to gas almost at once.

and would have to belch frequently
to relieve this. My heart also became
affected, and would suddenly become

was nervous and depressed. This went
on for over seven years, although L
spent hundreds of dollars trying to-
get relief.

stomach trouble. Next, one or two
friends told me that his medicines had

defeated candidate, out of all Office,
persona non grata to all machine pol
iticians, to all overgrown financial
interests and to all ambitious "plug-
gers" and of only moderate financial
means, can hold party by the throat,
and be more autocratic than a man
with all the prestige of high Office and
all the power of vast patronage. He
did not wish to spoil his speech with
problems. Moreover, he might have
been driven to acknowledge .Bryan's
hold upon the confidence of the voters
of his party, as the real secret of his
hold upon the party. Bryan holds
his party not by the throat but by the
heart.

EXECUTIVE ENcROACHMENT.

Senator Bacon has called the at
tention of the Senate to the evldent
Intention of President Roosevelt to
dictate legislation. He told OF the
renorted conference at the White
House of republican leaders and rail-
road men to consider legislation
amending the antitrust law by per-
mitting railroads to pool and corpora
tions to combine and exempting labor
organizations from the operations of
the Sherman antitrust law. "As l
have not seen this statement dis
puted,n continued Mr.. Bacon, II have
no doubt that the president has de-
cided for you that you shall not adj
journ this Congress until you nave
passed the measures he has mapped out
oryou."
Senator Bacon did not appear to
disapprove of legislation proposed oy
the White House conference, out
that executive encroachment upon
the power of the legislative branch OF
the government should be limited to
recommendations as provided in the
constitution. As no republican sena-
tor defended these White House con-
ferences, the inference is they all
agreed with Senator Bacon. Senator
Tillman Joined in the debate by in
quiring:
"Doesn't the Senator think that the
conference at the White House, at
which the captains of industry were
invited to be present, was intended
to line these captains up for the re-
nomination of the president or his
pet candidate, in view of the approach
of the Chicago convention?"
To that Senator Bacon replied, II
have no right to express an opinion"
The feeling in the House OF Repre-
sentatives of the republican leaders
is said to be similar about executive
dictation as in the Senate, but no one
vet has had the pluck to express his
O. )inion.
