ABRAHAM LINCOLN LOVED EVEN
THE LITTLE BIRDS

Away back in the pioneer days
when Abraham Lincoln was young
attorney riding the circuit" he
passed a grove where the birds were
singing merrily. AS he passed, in
company with a friend, he noticed
that a baby bird aid fallen from the
nest and lay fluttering helplessly on
the ground,
After they had gone a short dis
lance Lincoln stopped and whirled his
horse around, telling the friend he
would rejoin him in moment.
He picked up the bird and tenderly
laid it back in the nest.
When he rejoined his friend the
latter asked him why he bothered to
do that. His reply is worth remem-
bering. He said, my friend, l can
only say this-that feel better for
it. l could not have slept tonight if
had left that helpless little creature
to perish on the ground"
