THE LINCOLN PENNY

IL Is appropriate that Abraham Lin
coins face should be placed upon the
new penny to be issued by the United
States mint
The penny is the coin OF the COM
mon people.
And we are Informed that the face
or Lincoln on this coin Will have q
smile on It.
Lincoln seldom smiled His life In
many respects was a hard one and his
face was scanned with sorrows. When
In repose those who looked upon Il
say II was the saddest face they ever
beheld.
The artist wanted to find one picture
OF Lincoln In the act of smiling.
After long search be found one pho
gestion Of smile.
The artist took that suggestion and
studied out q facial expression such
rs Lincoln might have used while talk.
ing to children.
Says Victor ID. Bremen, the sculptor.
who designed the new head: when
we talk to each other we are more or
less on our guard. but when we talk
to children we relax and are at our
best. So have tried to imagine Lin
coin"
Lincoln smiling ut a child!
The conception Of the sculptor is q
fine one. Lincoln was fond of children.
They liked him. They looked into his
face and With the insight OF childhood
saw the goodness In that sorrowful
face
Another significant feature In the
history Of the Lincoln penny Is the
history OF the designer. Bremen came
here from Paris In 1890 a penniless
youth Of twenty-One. Being unable to
find anything else. he sold penny boxes
OF matches On the streets Of New York
until he could do better
The coin OF the poor-Lincoln's face
smiling at child-the designer who
sold matches for a penny
Isn't that true and triple apotheo-
sis OF Americanism2
Think OF the channels through which
the coin will 60 In the future years OF
the republic! Common hands, the kind
of hands that Lincoln loved TO grasp.
will In millions OF ways handle the
humble coin.
The newsboy who boards his little
capital for making change. the Sunday
school child who brings its penny to
the teacher. the cashier OF the depart
ment store whose tray Is filled with
the shining pence. the gathsrer up for
the penny slot machine. the worn and
feeble woman feeling with trembling
hands In her scanty purse. the beggar
OF the streets. the organ grinder. the
Salvation Army captain-all these will
often see the image OF Abraham Lin
coin. and some will see also the lesson
OF his life.
1t was a happy choice-the new pen
ny with the Lincoln face.

WHICH ROAn1

ton points. and two roads lead out
from each Junction-the Right road
and the Wrong road.
From the folder of tie Right road
you may learn that
The road is single track and I'm some
places narrow gauge. 1t is mostly IN
grade, several feet to the mile. There
are sharp curves that go around bin
rocks and along deep declines. But
On account Of the altitude the air IA
hne. and when you get up the scenery
Is unsurpassed. And 1t is SAFE.
The features Of the Wrong road
are
The roadbed is well ballasted the
line Is double tracked all the way. and
the equipment is luxurious. 1t IS easy
riding-no steep up grades. 1t Is down
hill from junction to terminal. But
While the coaches are sumptuous
and for a few stations the scenery IA
fascinating. by and by the train runs
through desert places and gloomy can

SHORT AND SWEET.
President Taft made asbig hit when
he put his tariff message into 3OC
words.
The article you are now reading Is
composed OF 500 words. SO you can
readily understand the brevity Of the
Taft document
The newspapers have come to dread
the appearance OF the average mes
sage that fills so much space. to the
exclusion OF the news.
Besides
1t Is an open question whether one
person In a thousand really reads the
yoluminous executive deiiverances.
Ex-President Roosevelt's favorite
picture-the one over the mantel IN
the executives private ofice-was the
one In which the old farmer is shown
as sitting up after the family has gone
to bed. burning the midnight oil and
porting over each sentence Of the pres
ident's message.
The picture Is rather fanciful.
Nowadays the farmer is about as
busy as the business man. He is on
a rural route. gets his daily paper and
skins over the headlines after taking
a look at the markets just as the man
In town does.
But 1t Is safe to say the farmer and
everybody else read every word OF the
tariff message.
The art OF condensation Is a rare ac-
complishment.
II brevity is the soul OF wit, II is

Study the masterpieces OF modern

Few speakers understand this art Of
