New Year comes adorned with holly.
Crowned with greens and mistletoe,
Full of youthful fun and folly
In the sunshine or the snow.
With forward-pointing finger
New Year steps upon the stage.
Round the old year shadows linger
And he trembles, bowed with age.
Through experience and reason
Many pitfalls he can see.
But the New Year for a season
Has his opportunity.

suggest the great human figure, whose
acquaintance many have found.
Justice to the great who have passed
on is not the issue, since the present
need is justice to the living. The
armament of human history Is dotted
thick with guiding stars, but they are
oh, SO very far away!
Heroes on pedestal serve the
present almost as little as ashes in
an urn. The trouble is not that they
lacked human nature, but that those
who look for help are repelled by the
cold marble which has been placed
about them.
The greater lesson of Lincoln. the
man of all the world, is that he is a
magnificent illustration of what may
be found, if only people will tear
away the husks with which the kernel
of truth is surrounded. The wrap
pings meet the eye and discourage
the seeker, who must get beyond them
in order personally to discover the
spirit which gives life.
The tomb is not the man. This Is
the key to the secrets of history.

SEE REAL LINCOLN
Photographs Reveal Much OF
Rugged Personality.
Present Generation Need Not, as in
the Case Of Washington, Look
for Character in Portraits.

Abraham Lincoln remains, and will
remain, one of the most important
possessions of the common people
everywhere, partly because his rugged
personality Is so difficult for either
writer's or sculptors to standardize.
Fortunate it is for us that he lived
in an age of photography-alth
no sensitized plate can reveal the
entire mystery, the camera does not
lie. We are not compelled to fioun-
der hopelessly. comparing different
portraits by different painters, as all
must who make the vain endeavOr to
get before the eyes of their minds
what George Washington was like.
The Lincoln who looks out from
the pictures that have come down to
us was caught in moments for which
no solicitous friends had the .oppor-
tunity to see that his clothes were
pressed or that every stray lock Of
hair was plastered down. And so
in his likeness we get something which
has the virtue Of being really "like."

memorial. But this temple does not

SAW SIGNIFICANCE IN MOLES
Writer Of Long Ago Pointed Out the
Meaning Of Spots on the Human
Anatomy.

Have you q little brown mole con-
cealed somewhere about your anatomy
that you sometimes show to your
friends-and sometimes don't? Well,
every little mole has meaning OF
Its own, according to chap-book tnat
was current in the Eighteenth century,
entitled Dreams and Moles, With
Their Interpretation and Significance"
(printed and sold in Aldermary church
yard, Bow lane, London). Whether
you are to be happy or unhappy, lucky
or unlucky in life. depends upon where
your little pet Is located. Here are
some of the interpretations given in
the old chap-book:
A mole on the right shoulder de-
notes happiness to man or woman.
A mole on the left shoulder denotes
a man to be quarrelsome, but woman
to have many husbands.
On the left cheek denotes frankness
In man or woman.
On the left ribs, cruelty In man, van
ity and pride in woman.
Near the right shoulder, you are to
be slave to love If a man, and to be
beloved Of great men, If you are
woman.
A mole on the right side Of the ab-
domen means riches for man and
happiness in marriage for a woman.
One under the right breast presages
good fortune In your ventures; on the
back, riches and honor.
A mole on the right arm denotes
that you will rule your own house
hold; one on your left arm, that you
will be slave to duty.
A mole on the right hip signifies
good fortune in wedlock to man or
