EIenhant Office Boy.

A few years ago, when Lord Duff
ferin became viceroy of India, among
his gifts was young elephant whose
tusks had been sharpened and who
had been taught to open the daily
mail of his master. Oriental rulers in
all ages sought collections of wild ami
males whose savage instincts have in
some way been overcome and made to
do the bidding of man. In 1897 the
people of Beirut saw wonderful col
lection of tanned animals sent by the
negus of Abyssinia to the former sui
tan of Turkey. l once helped tame
small bear from Mount Hermon until
he was as playful as a kitten, though

predatory animals, but having their

A STUDY OF ABRAHAM LINCOLN
THE MAN.

1t has been said of Lincoln that he
grew to a great mental stature and
achieved his masterful grip upon the
intelligence of the world, not alone
because he had extraordinary natural
endowments, but because he had an
Unsuitable interest in realities, and
never allowed a book or a formula to
obscure the sunlight of living fact. "
A great many people are inclined to
look upon Abraham Lincoln as a mar
velous being, raised up for a divine
purpose, and endowed with sublime
attributes which are not bestowed
upon ordinary mortals. Yet If We an
alyze his character we find it made
up OF the humblest virtues, the most
ordinary human qualities.
It was his incorruptible manhood,
his answering honesty, his love or
truths. his adherence to what he be-
lieved to he right in the face of all
temptations and difficulties, that, more
than all else, made him the sublime
character he was.
Lincoln never shrank from espous-
ing an unpopular cause when he be-
lieved it to be right. At the time
when il almost cost young lawyer
his bread and butter to defend the
fugitive slave, and when other law
yers had refused, Lincoln would al
ways plead the cause of the un
fortunate whenever an opportunity
presented. go to Lincoln" people
would say, when these bounded fugi-
lives we're seeking protection, he's
not afraid of any cause. IL its right.
His fellow lawyers called him per
versely honest" Nothing could induce
him to take the wrong side of case.

posed of early on that account.
The New England varieties are the
best keepers. They are pulled when
the tops fall over and lie in the sun
during the day, but they are stored
before night in hot loft for curing
with the tops left on.
When perfectly cured they are
stored in cold, dark place with the
dry tops still on, as they lie more
loosely in this way and do not sprout
so readily as when the tops are cut
off.
In the cultivation of garden crops it
always pays best to manure and fer

course, in the large trucking opera

cabbages and peas are grown wide

tivation.
1 frequently have letters from peo-
pie saying that they have been manur-
ing their gardens for years till the soil
is so rich that potatoes make immense
tops and no tubers. This is not be-
cause the soil is too rich, but because
the plant food in it is one-sided.
The annual application of stable ma
nure only has put an excess of nj
trogen into the soil and in order to
make tubers on the potatoes there
must be an abundance of phosphoric
acid and potash, for the presence of
potash in due amount is necessary to
the formation of starch to points
where growth is being made or it is
being stored in the tubers.
