The Presidents Address.

We have met here to celebrate the
hundredth anniversary of the birth of
one of the two greatest Americans;
of one of the Two or three greatest
men of the nineteenth century; of one
of THE greatest men in the world s
history. This rail splitter, this boy
| who passed his ungainly youth in the
dire poverty of the poorest of the
frontier folk, whose rise was by weary
and painful labor, lived to lead his
people through the burning flames of
struggle from which the nation
emerged, purified as by fire, born anew
to a loftier Life. After long years of
iron effort, and of failure that came
more often than victory, he at last rose
to the leadership of the Republic, at
the moment when that leadership had
become the stupendous world-task of
the time. He grew to know greatness
but never ease. Success came to him,
but never happiness, save that which
springs from doing we'll a painful and
vital task. Power was his, but not
pleasure. The burrows deepened on
his brow, but his eyes were undim
med by either hate or fear. His gaunt
shoulders were bowed, but his steel
thews never fa1tered as he bore for
a burden the destinies of his people.
His great and tender heart shrank
from giving pain; and the task allout-
ed him was to pour out like water the
life-blOod of the young men, and to
feel in his every fiber the sorrow of the
women. Disaster saddened but never
dismayed him. AS the red years of
war spent by they found him ever
doing his duty in the present, ever
facing the future with fearless front,
high of heart, and daunt1ess OF sozIl.
Unbroken by hatred, unshaken by the
scorn, he worked and suffered for the
people. Triumph was his at the last;
| and barely had he tasted it before
murder found him, and the kindly, pa
tient, fearless eyes were closed for
ever.
AS people we are indeed beyond
measure fortunate din the characters Of
the two greatest OF our public men,
Washington and Lincoln. Widely tho
they differed in externals, the Virginia
landed gentleman and the Kentucky
backwoodsman, they were alike in es.
sential; they were alike in the great
qualfti IS which rendered each able TO
render service to his nation and to all
mankind such as no other man OF his
generation could or did render. Each
had lofty ideals, but each in striving
| to attain these lofty ideals was guided
by the sonndeSt common sense. Each
possessed infiexible courage in adver-
sity, and a soul wholly unspoiled by
prosperity. Each possessed all the
gentler virtues commonly exhibited by
good men who lack rugged strength Of
character. Each possessed Also all the
strong qualities commonly exhibited
by those towering masters Of mankind
who have too often shown themselves
devoid OF so much as the understand
ing of the words by which we signify
| the qualities of duty, OF marcy, of de

Lives of Native Soldiers Too Pre-
cious to Risk Against Them.


ciOus to Risk Against Them.
The outlaws Of TOnkln whom the
French called pirates, are, properly
speaking, brigands, who infest the
country both on land and water.
One Of their resorts is the province
Of Bacninh, where they have just mur-
dered a French officer. There the
brigands openly and successfully defy
the forces Of the government Long
Immunity In that quarter has made
them numerous and formidable. This
need arouse no wonder, considering
that the troops in the field consist Of
native soldiers whose lives are too
precious to be risked in frontal ut
tacks on brigand Businesses.
Just before the murder of the officer
band of brigands made its appear
ance on the railway line between
Hanoi and Bacnih and inflicted loss
on some native levies who encounter
ed them. Upon this the resident went
for a detachment of native regulars
W hOoi u biON at lhC CHCDlls Iuc
troops met the brigands intrenched in
a village, one house in which they
had turned into fortress, so to speak
The commander of the troops found
himself in a fix. To send the regu-
lars across the open to carry the
stronghold by storm, under heavy fire
from the brigands, meant heavy loss
and certain death to many Of his men
to little purpose. The only alternative
was to blow up the house along with
Its garrison. But this resource failed
him from no explosives being at hand.
The result was that the brigands es-
capped.
The Haiphong paper rightly Won
ders why the troops In the field are
not supplied with melinlte bombs.
Such engines of destruction would save
much loss of life among the soldiery
operating against the brigands.
Yet no bombs are supplied to the
troops, though the brigands have Of
ten defied them safely from fortified
houses, which the troops would not
attack from fear Of loss Of life not
worth while to incur against outlaws.
The result Of this weak-kneed pol
Icy is that the brigand bands In that
section Of Tonkin increase steadily in
numbers and strength. Pessimists say
that in time they will become too many
to be terrified by melinite bombs

said sympathetically

\ HEALTHY PERSON NEEDS !
GOOD BREAKFAST.

DIR. Woods Hutchinson. iconoclast-
in-ordinary to the medical profession,
as usual upsets our previous ideas of
bodily health In an article In Wom-
ans Home Companion for August
Doctor Hutchinson has a faculty for
restoring to us our self-respect and
assuring us that, left alone, we are
not such idiots. after all. In this
particular article. for instance. he
points out that the idea of eating lit
tie In the summertime is fallacy.
or breakfast, for instance, he says:
III Is customary to make the first
meal OF the day slightly the Iightest
and distinctly the plainest and sim
plest OF the three: II there be any
dehciency of the appetite, breakfast
Is the meal at which this is most like
~ 10 show itself. But this lack of
appetite is In nine cases out of ten
clearly traceable to sleeping in an
unventilated room or to late hours In
foul air the night before, or to in
sufficient exercise the preceding day.
and Is no indication that the body re-
ally requires less food at this time.
Perfectly healthy men who sleep
s''N'i open ana go 10
bed at reasonable hour will tell you
that they enjoy their breakfast as
well as any other meal of the day,
and many even call II their, best meal.
Another popular delusion in re-
gard to the lightness and unimport-
ance OF the breakfast is that wide
spread subterfuge, the continental
breakfast, consisting of a cup of
coffee and some fruit or a single roll
This Is very pretty breakfast as far
as 1t goes, but II doesn't go far; and
the sole basis for Its adoption on the
continent is that II is only Intended
as temporary tlde-over, until the
real breakfast of meat, eggs, fish with
beer or wine, which is taken at about
ten or eleven o'clock, like very early
luncheon. If you haven't got a good
appetite for breakfast, make Il your
business to go and get one. instead
OF allowing yourself to be blinded
by this morbid state of affairs and
deciding that all you really need Is a
cup OF coffee and roll or an orange
or pun OF breakfast bran"
