 You'll spoil him with praise" Sarah protested and then asked as she turned to the young statesman, Have you heard from Bim or any of the Kelsos?"
 "Not a word. often think of them"
 ''There's been a letter in the candle every night for a week or so, but we haven't heard a word from Harry or from them," said Sarah. "I wonder how they're getting along in these hard times."
 "I told Jack to let me know if I could do anything to help" Samson assured them.
 Late in November MT. Lincoln went out on the circuit with the distin- guished John T. Stuart, who had taken him into partnership. Bim's letter to him bears an indorsement on it's envelope as follows:
 ''This letter was forwarded from Vandalia the week I went out on the circuit and remained unopened in our office until my return six weeks later A. Lincoln"
 The day of his return he went to Sarah and Samson with the letter.
 "I'll get a horse and start for Chi cago tomorrow morning." said Sam son. "TheZ have had a double. blow.

 Before she went to bed that night she wrote long letter to Harry and one to Abe Lincoln, thanking him for his part in the matter and telling him of her fathers death, of the payment due and of the hard times they were suffering. Two weeks passed and brought no answer from MT. Lincoln.
 The day before the payment came due in December, a historic letter from Tampa, Fla, was published in the Democrat. It was signed Robert Deming, private, Tenth cavalry" It gave many details of the campaign in the Everglades in which the famous scout, Harry Needles, and seven of his comrades had been surrounded and slain. When Mr. Davis called at the little home in La Salle street that evening he found Bim in great dis tress.
 "I throw up my hands," she said. 'T cannot stand any more. We shall be homeless tomorrow"
 "No, not that-so long as live" he answered. "I have bought the claim. You can pay me when you get ready
 He was very tender and sympa- thetic.
 When he had left them Bim said to her mother: "Our old friends do not seem to care what becomes of us. I have no thought now save for you and the baby. I'll do whatever you think best for you two. I don't care for myself. My heart is as dead as Harry's.

KEEP YOUNG

People with bad backs and weak kidneys are apt to feel old at sixty. Many old folks say Doan's Kidney Pills help them keep young. Here's a Canaan case:
 Mrs. P. c. Carey, Box 427, says: "An attack of the ''fu", weakened and badly disordered my kidneys. I suffered continually with backache and the least little work weakened my back so that I had to sit down during the day. Sweeping, dusting or mopping came hard as every time I bent, I had sharp, cutting pains in it. Specks would appear before my eyes and blur my sight. My kidneys acted too freely. Through someone's advice, I began using Doan's Kidney Pills and a few boxes relieved the dreadful backaches and regulated the action of my kidneys. 1 am getting to be an old woman now and although I am able to take care of my work about the house, need a good kidney medicine to keep my kidneys in good condition. I depend on Doan's Kid ney Pills which I get at Dempsey's Pharmacy"
 Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same that Mrs. Carey had. -Milburn Co.,, Mfrs, Buffalo, N. Y.-adv.

As a Counter Demonstration.

there for cup of tea and if she raises a rumpus you'll see me take her by the horns"
 Mrs. Cawkins was a lean, sallow, stern-faced woman of some forty years with a face like bitter herbs; her husband a mildmannered, shiftless man who, encouraged by MT. Cart wright, had taken to riding through the upper counties as a preacher-a course of conduct of which his wife heartily disapproved. Solicited by her husband she sullenly made tea for the travellers. When it had been drunk the two preachers knelt in a corner of the room and Mir. Cartwright began to pray in a loud voice. Mrs. Caw- kins showed the table about and tipped over the chairs and dropped the roll ing-pin as a counter demonstration. The famous circuit rider being in no way put out by this, she dashed a dip- per of cold water on the head of her husband. The praying stopped. MT. Cartwright rose from his knees and commanded her to desist. On her NSNANAo olAOL lIlttl Sllc NOuIu uOI uS ldlu hold of the woman and forced her out of the door and closed and bolted it and resumed his praying.
 Having recorded this remarkable in- cident in his diary, Samson writes:
 Many of these ignorant people in the lonely, prairie cabins are like chill dren. Cartwright leads them on like a father and sometimes with the strong hand. If any of them deserve a spanking they get it. He and others like him have helped to keep the cabin people clean and going up hill instead of down. They have established schools and missions and scattered good books and comforted sorrows and kindled good desire in the hearts of the humble"
 AS they were leaving, MT. Cawkins told them that the plague had broken out in the settlement on Honey creek, where the quarterly meeting was to be held, and that the people had been rapidly "dyin' off" Samson knew from this that the smallpox-a dreaded and terrible scourge of pio- neer days-had come again.
 Its dangerous to go there," said Cawkins.

Samson arrived and bought a
 house and two acres of land on the edge of the village and returned to New Salem to move his family and furniture. When they drove along the top of Salem hill a number of the houses were empty and deserted, their owners having moved away. Two of the stores were closed. Only ten fami- lies remained. They stopped at Rut- ledge's tavern, whose entertainment was little sought those days. People from the near houses came to bid them &od-by.
 Pete and Colonel, invigorated by their long rest, but whitened by age and with dropping heads, drew the wagon. Sambo and the small boy rode between Sarah and Samson. lBetsey and Josiah walked ahead of the wag- on, the latter leading a COW. That evening they were comfortably settled in their new home. When the beds were set up and ready for the night Sarah made some tea to go with the cold victuals she had brought MT. Lincoln ate with them and told of his new work
 Betsey was growing tall and slim. She had the blond hair and fair skin of Samson and the dark eyes of her

 Samson was astOnished at the iron will and holy zeal of this iron-hearted, strOng-armed, fighting preacher of the prairies of whom he had heard much. He lifted him and set him on the back of his horse.
 God blessed you with great strength" said the latter. Are you Christian?"
 "I am."
 They rode on in silence. Presently Samson observed that the preacher was actually asleep and snoring in the saddle. They proceeded for an hour or more in this manner. When the horses were wallowing through swale the preacher awoke.
 'Glory be to God!' he shouted. T am better. I shall be able to preach tonight A little farther on is the cabin of Brother Cawkins. He has been terribly pecked up by a stiff necked, rebellious wife. We'll stop

Second Visit to Chicago.
 Bim's judgment of her old friends was i'll founded. It was a slow time in which she lived The foot of the horse, travelling and often mired in a rough muddy highway, was its swift est courier. Letters carried by horses or slow steambOats were the only media of communication between peo- pie separated by wide distances. So it is easy to understand that many who had travelled far were as the dead, in a measure. to the friends they had left behind them and that those separated by only hundred miles had to be very enterprising to keep &C., quainted.,
 In March Abe Lincoln had got his license to practice law. On his return from the North he had ridden to Springfield to begin his work as a law yer in the office of John T. Stuart. His plan was to hire and furnish a room and get his meals at the home of his friend, MT. William Butler. He went to the store of Joshua Speed to buy a bed and some bedding. He found that they would cost seventeen dollars.
 ''The question is whether you would trust man owing national debt and without an asset but good intentions and a license to practice law, for so much money" said Honest Abe T don't know when I could pay you''
 Speed had heard of the tall repre- sentative from Sangamon county.
 "I have a plan which will give you bed for nothing if you would care to share my room above the store and sleep with me-" he answered.
 "Pm much obliged but for you it's quite a contract"
 'You're rather long," Speed laughed.
 "Yes I could lick salt off the top of your hat I'm about man and a half but by long practice I've learned how to keep the half out of the way of other people,"
 "Pm sure we shall get along well enough together" said Speed.
 MT. Lincoln hurried away for his saddle-bags and returned shortly
 "There are all my earthly posses sions," he said as he threw the bags on the floor.

SUCCESS

It's doing your job the best you can
And being just to your fellowman;
It's making money, but holding friends
And staying true to your aims and
ends;
It's figuring how and learning why
And looking forward and thinking
high,
And dreaming little and doing
much;
It's keeping always in closest touch
With what is finest in word and deed;
It's being thorough, yet making speed;
It's daring blithely the field of chance
While making labor brave romance;
It's going onward despite defeat
And fighting staunchly, but keeping
sweet;
It's being clean and it's playing fair;
It's laughing lightly at Dame Despair;
It's looking up at the stars above,
And drinking deeply of life and love;
It's struggling on with the will to win,
But taking loss with cheerful grin;
It's sharing sorrow, and work, and
mirth,
And making better this good old
earth;
It's serving, striving through strain
and stress,
It's doing your noblest-that's success,
Selected

congressman is not entirely to blame.
The responsibility rests primarily
upon the voters who send him forth
to battle for them.
When we send an army out to
fight we support that army to the
utmost of our resources. Without
such support its morale would be
broken and defeat would be its por-
ton.
We should do as much for our
representatives in Washington, for
they are fighting our battles OF peace
Just as much as the army fights them
in time Of war.
A district should advise its repre-
sentative as to what it needs. Then
it should actively support that repre-
sentative in his demands. The
"leaders" should be given to under
stand that if they desire the future
support of that district they can ex-
pect it only upon condition that the
district receives its just proportion
of the "bacon" that is so lavishly
handed out.
When district takes this attitude
and follows it up it generally gets
what it wants within reason. The
leaders soon take alarm and cease
their Establishments in their efforts
to switch the senator or congress
man away from his path of duty to
his constituents.
We should tell our representatives
in Washington what we want and
then make our demands united and
stronger than the influences opposed
to US.
Even a "leader" can tell which
way the wind blows when he watches
straw.

Their Duty and Ours

Leipsic (Ohio) Free Press: Our
public officials own a duty to us and
we owe a duty to them.
We send senators and congress
men to Washington to make laws
for us. We elect president whose
duty it is to see to a proper admin
istration of those laws.
When a senator or a congressman
goes to the capital he possesses a
hazy idea of what his constituents
desire. If he is newly elected his
heart burns and throbs with a laud-
able ambition to accomplish wonder
full things for "his people" He IS
determined to send home the bacon.
When he reaches Washington he
finds tha' he is not half as big as
he is vi n at home. In fact, the
'eleaders" promptly give him to un-
derstand that he is very little po-
tato in a mighty big basket.
He learn, also, that if he is a
"pood' Indian" and votes as the lead
ers dictate he may be graciously per-
mitted to send home silver of bacon
where he had hoped to send a slice.
He is duly impressed with the fact
that big fish in congress require much
feed, while the minnows must con-
tent themselves with the crumbs.
This is only the educational pro-
cess he must undergo upon taking
his seat. In most cases it is effect
i've. and the leaders secure another
follower and the constituents back
at home lose a defender for their
rights.
But in many cases the senator or
