love and sympathy have let down all

THE third Isl Pursue no passion

pursue him! This applies to the

woman who rides any Of the hundred
hobbies of modern life into the

Charles F. Briggs l told him the story
of Lincoln's visit to the New York
Tribune office at midnight after he
had delivered his now historic Cooper

Office of the Tribune to read the
