see all the dreams of vandaiia come true"
 And all the nightmares, too," said the young statesman.
 ''Yes, we're going to wake up and find a cold morning. and not much to eat in the house and the wolf at the door, but we'll live through it."
 Then the young statesman proposed: "If you are going with Harry, I'll go along and see what they've done on the Illinois and Michigan canal. Some contractors who worked on the Erie canal will start from Chicago Monday to look the ground over and bid on the construction of the southern end of it. want to talk with them when they come along down the line"
 q guess a few days in the saddle would do you good" said Samson.
 "I reckon it would. I've been cloyed on house air and oratory and future greatness. The prairie wind and your pessimism will straighten me up."
 Harry rode to the village that after noon to get "Coloner' and Mrs. Lukins to come out to the farm and stay with Sarah while he and Samson were away. ..... ..s
 Josiah, now sturdy boy of thirteen, stood in the dooryard, holding the two saddle ponies from Nebraska which Samson had bought of drover. Bet sey, handsome young miss almost if teen years old, stood beside him. Sarah, whose face had begun to show the wear of years full of loneliness and hard work, was packing the sad dle-bags, now nearly filled, with extra socks and shirts and doughnuts and bread and butter.
 They met Abe Lincoln at the tavern, where he was waiting on big horse which he had borrowed for the trip from James Rutledge. Without de- lay, the three men set out on the north road in perfect weather. From the hills edge they could look over a wooded plain running far to the east
 As they rode on, the young states man repeated long passage from one of the sermons of Dr. William Ellery Charming on the Instability of Hu- man Affairs" @
 q wish that had your memory" Samson remarked.
 My memory is like a piece of metal" said the young legislator. Learning is not easy for me. It's rof CI win xxy4fl a tool. But when a thing is once printed on my memory 1t seenis to stay there. 1t doesn't rub out. When I run across a great idea, well ex- pressed, like to put 1t on the wall of my mind where can live with it. In this way every man can have his own little art gallery and be in the com pany of great men,"
 They forded a creek In deep water, where a bridge had been washed away.
 AS they came out dripping on the farther shore, Lincoln remarked: "The thing to do in fording a deep stream is to keep watch O your horses ears. As long as you can see lem you're all right"
 ''Mr. Lincoln, I'm sorry-you got into hole" said Samson.
 / "T don't mind that, but while we're travelling together, please don't call me MT. Lincoln I don't think I've done anything to deserve such lack of re- spect"
 Samson answered: If you're nice to us, don't know but we'll call ye Abe again, just for a few days. You can't expect us. to go too far with man who associates with judges and generals and governors and such trash.

He seemed to care no more for work or study or friendship. He wandered out ip the woods and upon the prairtes alone. Many feared that he would lose his reason 2vse' ss,rr.---
 There was a wise and merry-hearted man who lived mile or so from the village. His name was Bowlin Green. Those days when one of middle age, had established himself in the affec-, tions of a community, its members had a way of adopting him. So MT. Green had been adopted into many families from Beardstown to Springfield. He was everybody's Uncle Bowlin." He had most unusual circumference and the strength to carry it. His ruddy cheeks and curling locks and kindly dark eyes and large head were details of importance. Under all were a. heart with the love of men, a mind of un- usual understanding and a hand skilled in all the arts of the Kentucky pioneer. He could grill a venison steak and roast a grouse and broil a chicken in way which had filled the countryside with fond recollections of his hospitality; he could kindle l%fire with a bow and string, pine stick and some shavings; he could make anything from splint broom to a rocking horse with his iack-knife.
