The Rnu and tha Bear.

There was once little boy named Henry. His mother was sickly and his father worked in lumber camp.
 Every winter when the snow was high Henry carried his fathers dinner to camp.
 One very cold day he said goodby to his mother and started for camp. The air was cold and the clouds looked dark.
 When he got half way 1t began to snow so heavily that he lost his way. He stumbled on and he came to cave. He went in and made a fire from the wood he found there.
 When he had good fire going he noticed for the first time that there were two bears in the entrance who were afraid to come near on account of the big fire. Soon the logs gave out and Henry had given himself up for lost when he heard two shots and saw the bears fall backwards.
 Two men entered the cave who proved to be two neighbors who were sent out to look for him.
 They carried him home to his mother, who thanked them for finding him and bringing him home safe.

The HeIpinq Hand.

There was once a little girl whe lived in Holland, and her name was Greta- This. little girl had a very kind grandfather who was a great fisher man. Greta went fishing every Satur day with her grandfather. This Sat urday it was very pleasant and the water was calm.
 Greta ran up to her grandpa and asked him if she could go. He said: ito be sure, I am always glad to have you go with me"
 Greta ran to ask of she could go and her mother told her she could
 Then after eating her breakfast she started off with her grandpa, They reached the boat and Greta jumped in with glee. They had taken their lun- cheon and were to stay all day.
 Her grandpa, caught many fish which he sold in the morning at the market
 When they were coming home from fishing the child helped her grandpa to row with one oar. When they reach ed home she greeted her mother and then ate her supper.
 After supper she told her mother about her trip and what she had seen. When she was ready for bed she thanked grandpa for tSking her and said she would be glad when next Sat urday came so she could go.
 Her grandpa called her the Helptng Hand for helping him to row.

Abraham Lincoln.

Abraham Lincoln was a tall. a7Tk- ward looking man who was born in Kentucky. When he was a boy he went to a school which was quite a. distance off. He went there only a short time; he could not go all the time because he had to help his father at home.
 Abraham Lincoln was a very stu dious boy, after the rest had all gone to bed he would sit up near the fire and study some book.
 When Abraham was about seven teen years of age his mother died. So now he had to find someone else to make his clothes. He found Mrs. Nancy Miller. who said she would do it for him. So she spun some coarse cloth and dyed it brown with walnut bark. Having no money to pay for it he had to chop down and split four hundred good fence rails for every yard of cloth. In this way he made his axe pay for his clothes.
 When older he became a member of the state legislature of Illinois. The people had elected him four times; later he became President of the United States
 He was such a great man the peo- pie Of the United States honor and celebrate his birth unto this day.

 He became a great lawyer and was elected president of the United States twice. He did not like slavery, the cause of the Civil war, and he made the proclamation of emancipation which freed all the slaves in the United States.
 After the Civil war he was shot at the Ford theatre, Washington, by an insane man named Booth

LETTERS TO UNCLE JED.
A Warrior Dou,

Dear Uncle Jed: I read the Wide Awake Circle every Thursday. I think you would like to hear about a warrior dog.
 My uncle fought in the Spanish American war, which was in 1898. One day while he was in the tent prepar- ing in came a strange little black dog. He divided his meal with the dog. for he looked hungry. After he had march ed out the dog followed him every where.
 After the war was over he brought the dog from South Carolina to my grandfather on tie farm. My grand father thought ever so much of him and felt very bad when the dog got run over by an automobile.
 He must have been very old, for he could not eat any meat the last few years; only soft food.
 I almost forgot to tell you his name, Alto. He was buried in a nice box in back of the barn. Every time I visie my grandfather's farm I visit his grave.

An African Giant,

Long, long ago, there was giant who lived in the southern part of Africa He was very ugly and say age.
 He had eyes which shone like red hot coals. His teeth were like sausage grinders, his hair grew straight up in the air, about five feet; his ears were like elephants and hung down over his shoulders; a nose that was yellow and sharp as an arrow; s neck like a giraffe; a head in shape of a star; arms like red snakes and hands and fingers like a hawks claw. His body was similar to a mermaid. Legs the shape of bean poles with po- tatoes strung on them; feet of a person put on so the toes would come in back; but his toes were like horses hoofs. and sounded the same as the chatter of their feet on city streets.
 His body shook like a. rocking chair when in motion; but the funniest of all was his voice. He could sing like a church choir. or a bird in the tree top.

Abraham Lincoln.

Abraham Lincoln was born on Feb rrarv 12 1909. in a log shanty on lonely little farm in Kentucky when Lincoln was seven years old ms 1a1h CT moved to Indiana, and he helped his mother and father build nem house.
 That new house was not so com fortable as our COW sheds are. It had only three sides, and if an Indian or a bear wanted to walk in to dinner there was nothing to stop them In winter Lincoln's mother would hang a buffalo skin over the open sloe to keep out the cold.
 Lincoln had g bag of leaves for his bed in one end of the house. Whenever Lincoln wanted a new bed all he had to do was to go into the woods and get some more fresh leaves. Lincoln helping his mother. For ms supper he had a piece of cornbread.
 Lincoln went to school in log house in the woods His father could not afford to buy paper and pencils for his son to use. So he had to use fire shovel for paper, and piece of char coal for a pencil. By the time Lincoln was seventeen he could write a good hand, do hard examples in long dfVi- sion. and could spell better than any one else in the country.
 Lincoln had six books which inter eeted him very m0cn- Iney were Robinson Crusoe." Pilgrims Pro- gress," "AeSop's Fables" the Bible, and the Life of Washington and a small History of the United States.
 Abraham Lincoln was elected pres ident in 1861. He was president dur ing the war between the North and the South.
 In April 1865, he was assassinated by q man named Booth. Both the North and the South joined in mourn ing because the nation had lost great man.

History of the Marathon.

The Marathon had its origin in the ecco-Persian wars, nearly twenty four centuries ago. In 490 B. c. a Persian army of 100000 men under the command Of Dahs and Arta- sohernes was landed at Marathon scarcely & days journey from Athens.
 The Athenians and their allies mum gering in all 10000 under the commend of Miltiades occupied the foothills surrounding the plain of Marathon. Without awaiting the Persian attack they charged the invading army on the plain and drove them to their ships with great slaughter.
 The fate of Greece was decided by this battle, and Miltiades at once sent & runner to Athens 26 1-5 miles dis tant to tell of the rout of the enemy. He reached the city in a few hours, and, after shouting to the people around him 'fVictoryt" he fell dead from exhaustion

UNCLE JED's TALK TO WIDE
 AWAkES.

Y71s pile of letters Uncle J ed has l1n hand leaves no doubt The Bull aeGan's ntt1e folks are Wide-Awalzes and willing workers.
 Two of his little W2de-AwazeS have been writing him from four to six letters a week for more than two years and their letters by themselves make a pile sufficient to represent them in the Circle if they do not write another letter for two years, and they make 8 pile as large as all the rest put together. and they are so plainly and neatly written that correction seldom has to be made 1n them.
 These patient, 3ndustrious workers keep winning books, and they never complain when they receive no other reward than just seeing their excellent letters f1l print, because they recog- nize that the books must be distri- huted according to merit compared with the age Of the writers, and to give the youngest as well as tho ofd- eze chance 10 get a prize book.
 Uncle Jed has felt sorry to see un- signed prize letters go unrewarded. and hs never prints a letter with no name affixed which would not have won 8 book except for this negligence
 Uncle Jed is made aware that some of the letter writer's do not have 8 care not 10 write stories which have appeared in print, He has had that little story about The Lion and the Mouse repeated a. score of times, and he is sorry to say he has had the same copied story from three or four writers, word for word alize-and. of course. not one Of them was used fof5 they did not meet the requirements of competition.
 Three books are awarded to stories of Lincoln this week because Lincoln day happens to be our day, and each story is written in & different way had they been alike not one of them would have appeared
