moment he made his appearance on the plat

use of the simple speech they could understand
There are anecdotes which are intended to show
that even in a community of persons not noted
for manly beauty he was considered pre-eminently
the reverse. Yet although this was the subject
of iests at his expense, no one thought any the

would destroy the nation he became to many pos

The month after his first election the publica
tlon Once Week in London printed the follow
ing personal sketch Of Lincoln:
Abraham Lincoln is gaunt giant more than
six feet high strong and long limbed. He walks slow,
and, like many thoughtful men Wordsworth and
Napoleon, for eXampe), keeps his head inclined
forward and downward. His hair Is wiry black,
his eyes are dark gray, his smile is frank, sim
cere and winning Like most American gentle
men, he is loose and careless in dress, turns down
his Tapping white collars and wears habitually
what We consider evening dress His head is
massive his brow full and wide his nose large
and heshy his mouth coarse and full his eyes
are sunken, his bronzed face is thin and drawn
down into strong corded lines that disclose the
machinery that moves the broad Jaw. This great
leader of the Republican party-this abolitionist
this terror of the 'DemoCrats'-this honest old
lawyer with face halfRoman, half-lndian, so
wasted by climate so SCARED by life's struggle,
was born in 1909 in Kentucky. His grandfather,
who came from Virginia, was killed by the lndi.
ans His father died young, leaving a widow and
several children. They removed to Indiana, Abe
being at the time only six years old. Poor and
struggling his mother could only afford him some
eight months rough schooling; and in the clear
ings of that new and unsettled country the
healthy STRIPPING went to work to hew hickory
and gum trees, to grapple with demonstrating
bears and to look out for the too frequent rattle

main He was a plain, homely, sad, weary.loOking
man to whom ones heart warmed invountarily,
because he seemed at once miserable and kind.
James b. Fry. who became intimately acquaint
ed with Lincoln early in the latter's political ca.
reer says: Lincoln tall and thin; his long
bones were united by large joints and he had long
neck and an angular face and head. Many like
nesses represent his face we'll enough, but none
that have ever seen do justice to the awkward
and ungainliness of his figure. His feet
hanging loosely to his ankles prominent
objects but his hands we're more conspicuous even
than his ieet-due perhaps to the fact that cere'
mony at times compelled him to clothe them in
white kid gloves. which always fitted loosely
Both in the height of conversation and In the depth
Of reflection his hand and then ran
supported his head. giving his hair habituay dis
ordered aspect.
His expression in repose was sad and dull, but
his everrecurrlng humor at short Intervals, flashed
forth with the brilliancy of an electric light

countenance one that of pure, thoughtful, hon

sibnity the other that of humorist full of fun
that he could not keep 1t all in. His power Of
analysis wonderful He strengthened every
case he stated and no anecdote or joke ever lost
force or effect from his telling
Apropos OF his large feet there is an anecdote
told Of Lincoln when he in the legislatures
He had walked his hundred miles to Vandalia, in
1886 as he had in 1894 and when the session
closed he walked home again gentleman Of
Menard county remembers meeting him and de.

They were all mounted except Lincoln, who had
thus far kept up with them foot If he had any

homey Joke at the expense of his feet they were
doubtless able to bear iD more thoroughly than
Lincoln did. We can imagine the cross fires of wit
and humor by which the way was enlivened during
this cold and tedious journey
The scene was certainly rude one and seems
more like dream than a reality, when we re-
member that It occurred not many years ago in
a state which contains hardly less than three
millions Of people and 1000 miles of railway.

Another English writer in describing the pres
dent is still more realistic than his countryman
when he says:
ITO say that he is ugly is nothing to add that
his figure is grotesque is to convey no adequate
impression Fancy a many six feet high and
then out of proportion; with long bony arms and
legs, which somehow seem to be always In the
way; with great rugged furrowed hands, which
grasp you like a wise when shaking yours; with
a long shaggy neck and chest too narrow for
the great arms at its side
add to this figure head cocoanut shaped
and somewhat too small for such stature
cred with rough, uncombed and uncombable hair,
that stands out in every direction at once; face
furrowed, wrinkled and ndented, as though It
had been SCARED by vtriol; high, narrow fore
head; and sunk deep beneath bushy eyebrows two
bright dreamy eyes that seem to gaze through
YOU without looking at you; few irregular
blotches Of black bristy hair In the place where
beard and whiskers ought TO grow; a close set,
thin Tipped, stern mouth, with two rows of large
white teeth, and and ears which have
been taken by mistake from a head twice the

strange look of dignity coupled with all this gro.
tesqueness, and you will have the impression left
upon me by Abraham Lincoln
Ward Lamon, who knew him intimately goes
more into details He says: Mr. Lincoln was
about six feet four inches high, the length of his
legs being out of all proportion to that of his
body, When he sat down in a chair he seemed
no taller than an average man, measuring from
the chair to the crown of his head: but his knees
rose high in front and marble placed on the
cap of one would roll down steep descent to
the hip. He weighed about $50 pounds, but he
