NOTE-NuXated Iron which Is pre-

known to druggists and whose iron
constituents are widely prescribed by
eminent physicians everywhere. I'm

the teeth, make them black nor upset
the stomach; on the contrary, it is a
most potent remedy, in nearly all

manufacturers have such great conf

to forfeit $4,000 TO any charitable in

every thought. She was easily the
belle of Springfield during her resi-
dence there with married sister, her
own home being in Lexington, Ky. Her
family objected to Lincoln because of
his humble parentage and his poverty,
and their engagement was broken off,
but two years later Mary Todd defied
the family opposition and welded the
man of her choice.
Mrs. Lincoln was not only attractive,
but she was cultured, Mr.. Rankin says,
and throughout her married life, at
least until the tragedy of the assassi-
nation, she kept up her French read
ing and otLer literary pursuits. Hers
was keen political perception
amounting to almost provision, too,
and her advice was that most carefully
weighed by Lincoln in his political and
public affairs.
All the world knows that when Lin
coin received the news of his nomina
ton he said: "There is a little woman
over on Eighth street who is deeply in
terested in this news; will carry 1t to
her." and he left his cheering, con-
graduating friends to hurry to his
home. Not so well known is the fact
that the happieSt person in Springfield
was Mrs. Lincoln, and that she never
closed her eyes that night, for fear
she would miss some Of the towns JOY
over the honor done its brilliant son.
Mrs. Lincoln's terrible sorrow on
the death of the martyr drove her
abroad-''the loneliest of all the wives
widowed by the Civil war"-and she
was allowed to spend the last years
of her life "amid chilling neglect and
misrepresentation" Mr.. Rankin says,
but he adds that when history shall
reflect the truth, in time to come if
it is not already here "she will be
awarded the recognition her merits
have always deserved. Till then she
can wait; for, like her husband, she
belongs to the ages"

Valentine In Literature.

In literature Valentine day has been
touched upon for several hundred
years. AS far back as February IA,
1867, the famous 'Pepys made entry in
his more famous diary that he p had
been able to escape buying his wife a
valentine by buying her a ring she had
long wanted, and he would have had to
get anyway. Charles Lamb wrote a
sort of invocation to Bishop Valen-
tine" and Sammy Weller of the Dick
ems family of characters FORCES Mr..
Pickwick's name to lOvelOrn house
maid, hoping for valentine sin the
flesh." st. Valentine died In 30 A. D..
and his tomb is in ST. Praxed's church
in Rome, more famous, perhaps, as the
tomb of Browning's "Paracelsus."
