When Andrew johnson Resumed His
Needle to Fashion Mark OF
Personal Affection.

There's always just one more story
about any of Americas former Presl.
dents. This time there is another about
Andrew Johnson, Lincoln's tempestu-
Gus successor.
johnson, while governor of Tennes-
see, once resumed his vocational I'M
plements. He had formed strong
friendship in the Tennessee legislature
for w. w. Pepper of Springfield,
stanch Wing, and once blacksmith.
Despite their irreconcilable political
creeds the personal relations Of john
son and Pepper were extremely cordial.
Pepper became judge in 1854, and
after visit to Johnson, then governor,
set about fashioning a. shovel, which
he sent with a note explaining it was
intended as momento of friendship
proof against all political differences.
Johnson, to show his appreciation,
took up his scissors and needle and
made a handsome beaver cloth coat
which he sent to Pepper. It was a
splendid piece of workmanship, prob
ably the last of that kind of work
johnson ever did, and exists to this
day.

about it very quickly for the time be-
ing, and went on toward Adam Ball,
who now was lying perfectly still.
There was bullet-hole through and
through the great, shaggy head. The
face behind the short, curly black
beard was of the colorless hue of
soapstone. The giant hillman was
dead.
Bill Dale knelt there beside Black
Adam. Again he clutched at his throat
with his two shaking hands, and this
time he tore his blue flannel shirt. III
the agony and all the remorse in the
universe seemed to be gathering there
in his heart. Never before had he
seen death. Its grim presence terrified
him. That the deplorable thing had
been an accident, due to his faulty
craftsmanship, mattered little. He
had killed man, and the bloOd-red
brand of Cain was burning away on
his brow; he was man in a hell OF
his own making. And kneeling there
Bill Dale sobbed great sob that
shook his broad shoulders as violent
ague would have shaken them.
He tried to look at the blue-edged
hole in the shaggy head; at the cruel
british face that was of the colorless
hue of soapstone. Merciful tears
blinded him. and he couldn't see. II

Dale had by this time worn the keen
edge from his grief by means of his

to the officer and replied with grave
courtesy:

Luke MoreIand led up the sleek

Lies nEitso and "Misfits.o

Many would have to do bit of
thinking before they replied to the
question at the head of this para
graph. Yet the answer can be easily
found. 1t depends on whether you
are ''fit'' or a ''misft" in life, re-
marks writer in London Answers.
Each of US has certain gifts and
qualities which were intended to fit us
into the scheme of life, SO that we
might live happily, contentedly and
proftably, and by justifying our ex-
istence be glad that we were born.
But if we have missed our niche, been
pushed into the wrong one, or persist
in putting ourselves into the wrong
one, then we can't be really glad that
we were born.
The misfit in life might as we'll have
missed life. The misfit is one who
doesn't knoW what his gift is, or,
knowing, doesn't use it. Many, too,
persist in trying to live, literally, on a
half or quarter gift, instead Of using
their talents TO the full.

Five minutes passed, five minutes
that were as five years to this man
who had never been in the presence
of death before. Then he realized that
he was being surrounded by kinsmen
of the dead mountaineer. He looked
up into their ashen, angry faces, and
they cursed him. Big and gripping
brown hands we're placed upon him ;
several rifles were turned upon him.
He arose and spread out his arms, and
offered mis- breast to the frowning muz-
