His Second Tnouohr.

A politician named Blank got place for d clerk during one of the sessions of the legislature of his state. The clerk was very grateful, says the Sat urday Evening Post. At the end of the session he came around to Blank and said: MT. Blank, want to tell you how much l am indebted to you for your kindness in getting me the place l have had. 1t meant more to me. MT. Blank, than you may think. ] thank you from the bottom of my heart. Also want to say, Mir. Blank, that if there ever comes time when l can do anything for you-anything at all-you are to command me. l will do anything you may ask me to do. am at your service"
 Blank thanked the man. and he started to 20. As he reached the door he turned and said, Of course, Mir. Blank. would prefer that it should be something hlnOrabe.'

How She Helped Lincoln With "Uncls
 Toms Cabln."
 Tn that little heroic advance guard of men and women who battled val iantly for the spread of anti-slavery sentiment in this republic Harriet Beec.her Stowe was most conspicu- ous Her propaganda was conduct cd within her own domestic circle. and her potent weapon was her pen. but it accomplished marvels. Her Uncle Toms Cabin" was real in vincible armada. Once launched, there was nothing that could silence it's guns. On it's earliest appearance in serial form it began it's career as an educative force. and it grew daily as maker of sentiment.
 Nor did it matter much that it was work which measured even by the standards of the time, was not esteem ed a notable example of literary handi- craft. That it was never accepted by those whose opinion should have been final as a true picture of conditions as they actually were did not in the least initiate against its potency as a re- forming agent. 1t kept right on in it's victorious and convincing way regard

LincoIn's Cabinet.


 Lincoln hated to dictate. He shrank from assuming to control the members of his cabinet until forced by circum- stances to take upon himself the re- sponsibility. His natural preference was to work with rather than to lead men. He could not bear to humble any fellow being, however low his rank. But he found as emergencies arose that some one must rule and that as president he alone was re sponsible to the people. His courage never permitted him to shirk a duty, and thus little by little his power was modeStly put forth.
 When the members of Lincoln's cab inet first met probably no one among them suspected that their counsels would be ruled by the man who sat at the head of the table. None of them knew him. and most of them felt they were the superiors of the un- tried and untrained president. They had all been chosen by him for pOlit- ical or party reasons. Four had been his competitors for the nomination at Chicago.

Whx Lincoln Told Stories.


 Lincoln undoubtedly appropriated all the stories he could acquaint himself with. regardless of their antiquity. and often. no doubt. he adapted their point to the conditions of the people he lived among. His own explanation of his extraordinary propensity to anec- dote in speech or conversation is ex- cellently given ill the Century Maga- zine by Colonel Silas w Burt. who re- lates a remarkable incident. hitherto unpublished. of civil war history. It is not necessary in this connection to do more than quote the words
 ''I believe l have the popular reputa- tion of being story teller. but do not deserve the name in its general sense, for it is not the story itself. but its purpose or effect. that interests me I often avoid long and useless dis cussion by others or a laborious ex- planation on my own part by short story that illustrates my point of view So. too. the sharpness of a refusal or the edge of rebuke may he blunted by an appropriate story.ssso as to save wounded feeling and yet, serve the pur- pose. No; am not simply story teller. but story telling as an emollient saves me much friction and distress"
 It may be added that this accords with the view which most students of Lincoln's character had reached

around him and try to teach them to
doctor theiF countrymen.
1t has been left to the China emery
ency appeal committee (28 Victoria
street, Westminster) to try to raise a
fund, and make an organized attempt
TO promote the efficiency of medical
training colleges to train Chinese to
doctor themselves, and TO train teach
ers to train other Chinese to teach.
They have not started a SNOWFALL,
and yet their fund has this resemblance
to it, that in rolling along it must in
crease, for in all probability for every
pound an Englishman gives to it some
Chinese will give two.
Chinese are very liberal and. most de-
sirous of foreign instruction now-it
was not ever so. In old days even the
very man who took your pay for teach
ing you to learn Chinese would not
deign to recognize you If he met you
in the street In Picking. so great was
Chinese arrogance and hate then.
But now all is changed. though the
arrogance remains probably. Do not
we even think ourselves the finest race
under the sun, our usages the best, our
opinions the right ones? So do Chi
nese, just so. But they realize that
they do not understand science and ap-
piled mathematics and a few more
things like that, among them surgery.
So if any one feels a desire to help
the Chinese, now is the time to help
them to help themselves.
Nor let any one object that any
money collected for this purpose is be-
ing used for foreigners. The Chinese
will probably give the sites and the
buildings necessary. And all that will
need to be paid viii be the salaries of
the teachers. English men and women
of good attainments and good charac
ter; als9 the equipments of the schools.
Centuries ago, when the Roman
Catholic priests first got to Picking, the
Chinese sent them back to their own
country, begging them to return with a
little company of 20 men of great
learning to instruct China. Two only
started for China, and of these two one
felt afraid and went back. Another
time the Chinese had heard some beau
tifui new doctrine was being taught in
the west. They sent messengers to find
out what it was. Somehow they wan
dered southwest, and brought back not
but Buddhism.
And now again there is the oppOrtun-
ity. If we will we can go far with the
rising tide to set Chinese starting on
the road of progress in the right direc-
ton. If we do not help II seems as if
one man in every four in the whole
world were likely to be given over to
mere materialism. For Buddhism has
crumbled. COnfucianism lost it's hold;
China has changed, although we may
not know it.-Mrs. Archibald Little in
london Call.
