A NEW LINCOLN STORY.

What is believed to be new story
of President Lincoln is told by ex-
Vice President, Adlai E. Stevenson,
In the Woman'S World. 1t runs as
follows:
Several months before Lincoln is
sued the great Proclamation of Eman-
cipation which gave freedom to the
whole race ofnegro slaves in America,
my friend, Senator Henderson of
Missouri, came to the White House
one day and found Mr.. Lincoln in
mood of deepest depression. Finally
the great President said to his caller
and friend that the most constant and
acute pressure was being brought
upon him by the leaders of the radi-
cal element of his party to free the
slaves.
Sumner and Stevens and Wilson
simply haunt me-" declared Mr..
Lincoln, with their opportunities
tor proclamation of emancipation.
Wherever go and whatever way I
turn, they are on my trail. And still,
in my heart, I have the deep convic-
ton that the hour has not yet come. "
Just as he said this, he walked to
the window looking out upon Penn
sylvania Avenue and stood there in
silence, his tall figure silhouetted
against the light of the window pane,
every line Of it and of his gracious
faceexpressive of unutterable sadness.
Suddenly his lips began to twitch with
smile, and his somber eyes lighted
with twinkle something like mirth.
"The only schooling I ever had,
Henderson," he remarked, "was in a
log schoolhouse when reading-books
and grammars were unknown. Ali
our reading was done from the Scrip
lures, and we stood up in long line
and read in turn from the Bible. Our
lesson one day was the story of the
faithful Israelites who were thrown
into the fiery furnace and delivered
by the hand of the Lord without so
much as the smell of fire upon their
garments. It fell to one little fellow
to read the verse in which occurred,
for the first time In the chapter, the
names of Shadrach, Meshach, and
Abednego. Little Bud stumbled on
Shadrach, foundered on Meshach,
and went all to pieces on Abednego.
Instantly the hand ofthe master dealt
him a cuff on the side of the head and
left him waiting and blubbering as the
next boy in line took up the reading.
But, before the girl at the end of the
line had done reading, he had subsidized
into sniff1es and finally became quiet.
His b1under and disgrace were for
gotten by the others of the class un-
til his turn was approaching to read
again. Then, like thunder clap out
of clear sky, he set up wall which
even alarmed the master, who with
rather unusual gentleness inquired
What's the matter, nowl'
pointing with a shaking finger
at the verse which few moments
later would fall to him to read, Bud
managed to quaver out the answer:
"'Look there, marster,-there
comes them same dam three fellers
again.
Then his whole face lighted with
such smile as only Lincoln could
give, and he beckoned Senator Hen
derson to his side, silently pointing
his long bony finger to three men
who were at that moment crossing
Pennsylvania Avenue toward the door
of the White House.
They were Sumner, Wilson and
Thaddeus Stevens.

LOVE THE GREATEST EDUCATOR OF YOUTH.


A great many parents use the pc
lice method of government with their
children, writes Orison SWEET Marden,
in SncoesS Magazine. Force is the
only method ofgoverning they know.
They have never learned to lead.
They only know how to drive.
In many home the father is looked
upon more as stern policeman, a Sc
we're Judge, or a hard taskmaster,
than as fond parent. The children
feel sense of relief when he leaves
home in the morning. and have
dread of his return. Instead of wait
ing for his Homecoming as a playfel-
low who will enter into their sports,
romp and play with them, sympathize
with them in their little troubles and
ambitions, take an interest in their
toys and everything that interests
them, they shrink from him. They
fear him. His presence throws a
gloomy shadow upon them. When
they see him coming they hush their
laughter and stop their romping play
and merry games.
Children who are continually repre-
sented In this unnatural way are usu-
ally timid and full of fear. They
lose the sweet, open confidence and
trustfulness which constitute the
greatest charm of childhood. They
become hard, cold, secretive and sus-
picious. The JOY and gladness and
spontaneity which are as natural to
the young as beauty and perfume to
the flowers are crushed out of them
by harsh, repressive measures. They
become like fruit grown in the shade
-pungent, bitter, unlovely in every
way.
Love is the great educator, the
great unfolder of youth. As the sun
is the only thing that will bring out
the sweet juices and develop the lus-
cious flavor, the exquisite beauty and
tint of fruits and flowers, so love is
the only thing that will develop the
sweetness and beauty of the child.
1t is the only power that will call out
the true, the natural, the responsive,
the spontaneous, the beautiful side of
its nature. 1t is only the hard, coarse
and unlovely qualities that are devel-
oped by force and repression.

A BRIGHT FACE.

Why do you wear a harrassed and
troubled look? Are you really in
trouble, or are you allowing the little
worries of life to grind furrows in
your face? Take glance at yourself
in the mirror, and reform-that is,
reshape your face into the lines of
comfort and good cheer, which it
ought to wear. Take an honest in.
ventory of your troubles, and decide
whether or not they are really worth
advertising in your countenance. 1t
may seem little thing to You wheth-
er or not you wear smiling face, but
it is not a little thing. A serene
look advises the tired and troubled
men and women whom you meet that
there is piece and JOY in at least one
heart. And there may be among
them some one who has begun to
doubt whether peace or Joy exists at
all. GA merry heart doth good like
a medicine"

BOY AND CIGARETTE.

DR.. Hull, OF Kansas City, in dis
cussirg the effects of cigarettes upon
boys recently, said that Prof. William
McKeever, ofthe Kansas Agricultural
College, had been making study of
the subject. His findings will make
it hard for the Tobacco Trust to head
off anti-cigarette legislation in the
Kansas Legislature.
Zone of the greatest menaces to
our moral and intellectual well-being
today" he said to reporter, "is the
fact that cigarette smoking is becom-
ing popular fad among the boys and
young men. Go where you will, the
pale faces, blear eyes, trembling fin
gers and foul stencil of cigarette fumes
tell the same pathetic story.
For the past eight years Doctor
McKeever has traced out the cigarette
boys biography, and he has found
that in practically all cases the lad
began the smoking habit clandestine-
ly, and with little thought of its seri-
BUSINESS, while the fond parents per-
haps believed that their boy was too
good to engage in such practice.
He has tabulated reports of the
condition of nearly $500 cigarette
smoking schoolboys, and in describing
them physically, such epithets as sal
low sore. eyed, 'puny,' 'squeaky.
voiced, 'sickly,' short winded' and
extremely nervous are used.
In the report it is shown that a
group of young college students,
smokers, whose average age begin
ming was thirteen, according to their
own admission, had suffered from sore
throat, weak eyes, pain in chest,
short wind, stomach trouble and pain
in heart. Ten of them appeared to be
very sickly. The younger the boy,
the worse the smoking hurts him in
every way, for these lads almost in
variably inhale the fumes; that is the
most injurious part of the practice.
The Injurious effects of smoking upon
the boys mental activities are very
marked.
"Of the many hundreds of cases,
several of the very youthful ones have
been reduced almost to the condition
of imbeciliry. Out of 1886 who were
attending public school only six were
reported bright students. A very
few, perhaps ten, were average, and
the remainder were poor, or worth
less, as students"

Twenty years ago the Welsh Noun

twenty years ago the WelSn MOun-
tains in northeastern Lancaster coun-
ty were the abode of a community of
outlaws, Abe Buzzard and his broth
ers being the leaders. The Mennonite
doctrine of nonresistance, no doubt,
encouraged the depravity of the noun
taineers, who gradually became con-
vinced that they could rob the Men
monte farmers with impunity, as the
religious scruples of the victims for
bade them to shoot at the thieves or
invoke the law. The Buzzards and
other members of the gang served
terms in prison, but on returning to
the mountains resumed their former
habits.
Nine years ago Noah Mack, Men
MONTE school teacher, decided to try
to reform these mountaineers by a
polity of kindness, helpfulness and
practical application of the Christian
religion. He believed that what they
needed most was remunerative en-
ployment. So he started by hiring
them to pick huckleberries that grow
on the mountains. The opportunity
to earn an honest living was novelty
of which many of the mountaineers
eagerly availed themselves.
Then Mr.. Mack erected building
on the mountains and opened an in
dustrial mission, employing the men
at carpet weaving, broom making,
strawberry growing and farming, and
the women at shirtmaking and similar
occupations. Thusa new and health
full environment was created for the
young people and wrongdoing lost its
attractiveness. The Buzzardsl left the
region few of the old thieves who
proved immune to good influences
were kept in Jail, while the other res
idents became peaceful, law abiding
citizens, who took an interest in bet
tering their homes and educating their
children.
Crimes are now rare on the Welsh
Mountains, and not long ago the Dis
trict Attorney of Lancaster county
said that this region at present cost
the county only one-seventh what it
did in 1855.
Though the Mennonites seduously
avoid legal entanglements, their Pc
culiar garb was the cause of suit in
the Lancaster courts that attracted
much attention. This was the result
of an attempt to enforce the law of
1895, forbidding "the wearing of any
religious garb or insignia in The school
ROOM" In some parts of Lancaster
county Mennonite women are employ
ed as teachers, and they wear the little
white cap and plain dress of their sect.
Certain secret societies conceived this
to be violation of the law, and suit
was instituted against the School
Board of Mount Joy township because
a teacher who wore the Mennonite
garb was employed there.
Last August, however, the court
decided the law to be unconstitution-
al, and thus a cause of considerable
discomfort to the Mennonites was re-
moved.
Another source of vexation to these
"plain people" is the attempt of 6c-
ton writers (like Helen R. MARTINI
to depict them in stories as ignorant,
brutal and bigoted. They are not,
and they will hereafter shun the
authors who seek to hold them up in
false colors.

JUST THINKING.

The following poem was written by Rev. ]. A
Jones, pastor of First Baptist Church of East
New York, November oath last. 1t has since
been put to music and is hymn frequently
sung at the church and elsewhere. Mr.. Jones
was formerly pastor of Hereford Baptist Church
Baltimore county:
o, day of hope, my heart desires thee;
My anxious soul would hail thy dawn;
When crimsoned tints the sombre shadows,
AS setting sun behind the storm.
Shall just stand beside the ocean,
And wait the ebb and flow of tide
And wish for day and smoother weather,
While someone needs hand to guide?
The clouds they say are "lined with silver"
And "every storm calm beyond;"
And "pain Is recompensed tomorrow"
And tears and laughter always joined.
Be this truth or be it falsehood,
Mine Is not to ask its proof;
But to seek to move the substance,
Then the shadow from the roof.
"Seven thousand" hearts are aching
Like my own, for light of morn;
Bleeding feet are hurrying onward
Pierced deep by many thorn.
Would'st thou light extract from shadow?
Would'6t thou ope' the darkest cloud?
And with silver fill thy dwelling
Then buy laughter from the crowd?
Do not then bemoan your station;
Up and lend helping hand;
Turn the sunshine on the shadows,
Yours to help the weak to stand.

For "THE UNION"
ECSTASY.
Translated from the French by E. May Cross

Translated from the French by E. May Cross
1 stood alone by the sounding sea.
When the hours of day had sped;
Not sail was seen on the boundless deep.
And the stars shone bright o'erhead.
My eyes saw farther than things of earth,
The sea and the mountains high,
The forests so thick, and dark and wide,
And the beautiful fire of the sky.
All nature seemed to be questioning
The stars and the ocean wide,
And though confused was their murmuring,
The waves and the stars replied.
In accents high, in accents low,
In harmony sweet to hear =
"Oh, things are as they are because
The Lord, our God, is near"
The stars bent down their crowns of fire,
And the waves, whom none can govern,
Curved low their crests, in homage true
To "Our Father, who art in Heaven"
And there, at once, worshipped. too,
Our glorious Lord on high,
The God not only of all mankind,
But also of sea and sky.

The proprietor of a lanyard was
anxious to fix a suitable sign to his
premises. Finally happy thought
struck him.
He bored hole through the door
post and stuck a calf's tail into it,
with the tufted end outside.
After while he saw solemn-taced
man standing near the door, looking
at the sign. The tanner watched
him a minnie, and stepped out and
addressed him.
"Good morning, sir p he said.
GOOD morning p said the other,
without taking his eyes off the sign.
