BILE and unpretentious environments
about the home of the boy Lincoln.
His humble home at Elizabethtown,
where he afterwards lived barefoot
ed boy, was not much more modern.
On one corner of the little county
seat stood two story brick building.
/ remember 1t we'll for had my first
law office in this same building. In
the Lincoln days the lower floor was
used as general store and little Abe
was frequently sent to this little shop.
There must have been--there was a
marked individuality about him, even
as boy, for the men gathered IN
this meeting place would perch him
on the counter, youthful, uncrown-
ed king, and buy homemade sugar for
him Just for the exquisite pleasure OF
seeing him eat and enjoy it. There
must have been lofty poise and a
magnetism even in the untutored boy
His little home in the valley was
in the nearby outskirts of Elizabeth
town and not more than two blocks
back of it was a spring which came
gurgling out from small open-mouth-
ed cave at the foot of hill. This
furnished the Lincoln family with its
water supply.
Lincoln and / did not drink from
the same canteen, but as boys we
drank oftentimes from this same
sparkling fountain of crystal waters
furnised by natures bountiful hand.
Lincoln was genuine child of ma.
ture-as innocent as playful fawn
in Kentucky's primeval forests, vel
as courageous for the right as lior
in the jungles of Africa He was
born a patriot, and this childhood at
tribute followed him through all his
eventful life He loved Kentucky; he
loved his adopted states, and all the
states; he loved the whole union,
north, south, east and west with a
fervent devotion; and if he were alive
and in this hall tonight, every utter
ance in favor of the union as 1t was
and the constitution as 1t Isl would
find responsive approval in his great
soul.
That region in Kentucky where Lin.

the early days, and this humble lad

came part of his being. The bar at

YOUR CHILD's HEALTH
YOUR FIRST THOUGHT

II you have children, naturally your
first thoughts are for their health.
You certainly want them to develop
strong, healthy constitutions. The
most careful attention must be given
when children show the first symp-
toms Of the many common ailments.
Perhaps they are weakly and thin, or
grow too fast, thus sacrificing
strength. These and other apparently
minor ailments may be the forerunner
to a weak constitution for life.
Such children need Jayne's Tonic
Vermifuge which is essentially chill.
dren's tonic. First of all, 1t will
property care for the childs stomach.
1t will also improve the appetite, and
will add strength to the other organs
of the body. In cases Of thin or i'm.
pure blood, 1t increases the number OF
red corpusles enabling the enriched
blood to keep the body healthy and

Among the most common ailments
that children develop Is that of a
disordered stomach, leading to an
impaired digestion. In many cases
this trouble is due to parasites
in the intestinal tract. To correct
such trouble, Jayne's Tonic Vermi.

larger Attendance Than Usual
at Meetings on Such
Occasions in
Keokuk.
ATTRACTIVE PROGRAM
Patriotic Music, Reading and
Three Appropriate Adj
dresses, Opening With
Prayer.

There was a fair attendance, larger
than usual on such occasions, at the
meeting last night at Hawkes. hall in
honor Of the birthday anniversary OF
Abraham Lincoln. 1t was made up of
men and women who earnestly appre-
ciated his great work in preserving
the union and leaving to posterity a
united and prosperous land.
William Ballinger was called to
the chair by Major David B. Hamill,
patriotic instructor Of Terrence Post
Of the G. A. R., and then America"
was sung by the audience, with Mrs.
Montague at the piano.
Following was a fervent prayer In
keeping with the occasion, by Rev.
Dr. Lathrop Of the Trinity Methodist
Episcopal church.
In opening, Chairman Ballinger
made brief address, full OF patriotic
sentiment, in which he gave some
surprising sentences on the greatness
and grandeur of this government in
the matter OF growth of population
and It's progress in It's mechanical and
industrial resources. When the civil
war was inaugurated the soldiers of
our armies were armed with English
made guns and the officers wore
swords manufactured in the same
country. Now this country outstrips
them all In the production of these
munitions of war. He compared the
numbers engaged In our civil war. in
the contest between Russia and Jap
an and in our recent war in Spain,
which all gave to the United States
most flattering advantage. He de-
clared that he believed the United
States could battle against ire
mendous force with munitions of war
produced in our own land, live on the
products OF this land and pass through
the ordeal at the same time sustain
ing her policy Of gold standard.
Turning to Abraham Lincoln he
paid a high tribute to that great and
wise savior Of his country. He be-
loved that IL he had lived the great
mistake Of reconstruction days would
have been avoided and the troubles
Of those aforementioned days would
not have come upon us. Mr.. Ba.ling-
er had the most attentive hearing and
was greeted with earnest applause at
the close Of his able and compre-
hensive remarks.
