A Christmas Sentiment.

OnrIstnuS Scnt1ment.
The thing that goes the farthest to-
wards making life worth while,
That costs the least and does the most,
Is just a pleasant smile.
The smile that bubbles from q heart
that loves its fellow men
Will drive away the cloud of gloom
and coax the sun again.
It's full OF worth and goodness. too,
with manly kidness blent;
It's worth a million dollars, and II
doesn't cost a cent.

AMDSING Stories ON
DOCTOR BURLEIGh
NOTED PHYSICIAN WAS MAN IN
HONOR OF WHOM THIS coUN-
TY WAS NAMED.
Saturday Evening Post Narrates Some
Anecdotes Of Pioneer Who Is Re-
membered by Old Timers.

The pioneers of the capital city
as we'll as of the entire state, will
recall to mind DR.. Burleigh, in whose
honor BurFaigh county was named. In
the current issue of the Saturday
Evening Post, running in the Sense
and !(onsense column, are two anec
dote of the pioneer which are anus
ing and which will be of interest to
all. The anecdotes follow:
joys Epitaph.
An old-timer in the Dakotas and
Montana, named Doctor Burleigh.
among other things practiced law. A
jyoung lawyer named Joy opposed Bur-
leigh in a case. 1t was a criminal
case and Joy said something in his
address to the jury about wanting for
his epitaph the fact that he had sue
cessfully prosecuted the criminals OF
that vicinity.
When he had finished Burleigh
arose.
"Your honor" he said, "our young
friend who has just sat down said
something about his epitaph. the
writing of which we all hope will be
many years deferred; but when IN
the course of nature he does come to
die, your honor and gentlemen OF the
Jury, judging from his course in this
case, his epitaph will be Peace on
earth and joy in hell!"
Optimistic Lincoln.
Doctor Burleigh was one of the
earliest settlers of Dakota and Mon
tana and was a boyhood friend Of
Abraham Lincoln. Tthe doctor used
to tell this Lincoln story on himself.
When Lincoln was nominated Bur-
leigh was in Minnesota on his way to
a logging camp. He laughed at the
thought of Lincoln running for presf-
dent, and went into the woods. He
stayed in the woods until the follow
ing summer; when he came out he
found that Lincoln had not only been
elected but inaugurated.
Burlelgh hurried to Washington and
demanded job.
What kind of place do you
want?' asked President Lincoln.
ANY kind-where there's not much
work and big pay"
"Tm afraid, "smiled Lincoln, that
most of those jobs are gone. I'll have
my secretary look round and see What
we can find for you. Come back to-
morrow.
Burleigh went back.
"Burieigh." said President Lincoln,
there isn't much left. The best thing
can offer you is the agency of the
Yankton Sioux Indians. 1t pays $1,000
a year."
But, Abe" expostulated Burleigh, |
"a man can't live on that salary! I'd
either have to starve to death or rob
the government" |
"Weil, Burleigh, replied the presi
dent, you'll never starve to DEATH"
