AFTERWARD.
When the Present has latched its
postern behind my tremulous
stay,
And the May month flaps its glad
green leaves like wings.
Delicate-filmed as new-spun silk, will
the neighbors say:
“He was a man who used to notice
such things?”
If it be in the dusk when, like an
eyelid's soundless blink,
The dewfall-hawk comes crossing
the shades to alight
Upon the wind-warped upland thorn,
a gazer may think:
“To him this must have been a
familiar sight.”
If I pass during some nocturnal
blackness, mothy and warm.
When the hedgehog travels fur
tively over the lawn,
One may say: “He strove that such
innocent creatures should come
to no harm.
But he could do little for them;
and now he is gone.”
If, when hearing that I have been
stilled at last, they stand at
the door,
Watching the full-starred heavens
that Winter sees,
Will this thought rise on those who
will meet my face no more:
“He was one who had an eye for
such mysteries?’
And will any say when my bell of
quitance is heard in the gloom.
And a crossing breeze cuts a pause
in its outrollings.
Till they rise again, as they were &
new' bell’s boom:
“He hears it not now but used to
notice such things?”

She Also Said It.
Prom the Boston Globe.
John D. Rockefeller, Sr., once told
the story of the railroad conductor
who was pestered by a fussy woman
who kept asking him fcalish ques
tions. He answered her politely, but
after the train had stopped at a
station he waved his hand to the
engineer to start the train. When he
came through the train the lady
aslceS :• • *— •
"Why did you wave your hand to
the engineer?”
“Oh, that meant ‘get the hell out
c! here,”’ and he walked away.
One of the passengers called him
to one side and said, “Say. conductor,
you should not have said thut to that
lady. Her husband is a director on
this j^oad.”
The conductor immediately found
the woman and apologized and w'hen
he came through the train again the
man said:
“Well, conductor, when you apolo
gized to that lady what did she say?”
“She didn't say anything.” said the
conductor, “she iust waved her hand.”

Lincoln's Spirit Lives.
Chauncey Depew. as told to James

It is to Lincoln, the man, that we
should look for the true measure of
his greatness and his humanity. What
other figure of his time has a remote
influence on the present? I can
not think of one. Who knows today
the services of Daniel Webster and
Henry Clay, both of whom lived and
worked in his day? And they per
formed worthy services. These men
of the first rank have no influence
on our life, but Lincoln grows upon
us because he typified us
There is no accounting for Lincoln.
We can hardly understand today Hie
source of his origin and the extent
of his climb. In a land that could
produce Lincoln and raise him to
such eminence anything is possible.

birth. He began lower than almost

Lincoln Had Only Few Months in
School, But Was Educated Man
Bylfceorge P. Hambreeht, University of Wisconsin.
One of the best educated men this country has produced
was Abraham Lincoln. That statement may surprise some,
who think of him as unschooled. To them the Gettysburg
address is a miracle. But in reality that exquisite piece of
literature is no miracle. Like most works of “genius,” that
beautifully constructed composition is the result of years of
self-schooling, study, practice, and discipline.
The boyhood studies of Lincoln were of a fundamental
character. It included the Bible, Pilgrim's Progress, Aesop's
Fables, Robinson Crusoe, Weem's Life of Washington, later
Ramsay's Washington, arithmetic, a history of 1he United
States, the revised statutes of Indiana, and Lindley Murray's
English Reader. Of the last-mentioned book, Lincoln once
said to his law partner, “It is the best book ever put in the
hands of American youth.”
With this educational preparation the boy Lincoln started
his career as a young man at New Salem, 111,, after reach
ing his majority, and there attracted the interest of three re
markable men, Mentor Graham, the schoolmaster, who directed
his reading for many years Jack Kelso, a student and phil
osopher; and John Allen, a college bred gentleman and
scholar, whose well chosen library was placed ar Lincoln's dis
posal. Lincoln’s real educajjon began here, based on the
fundamental just enumerated.
r or six years uiereaiier, wane ne was cierhing in a gen
eral store and later as joint proprietor of his own store at New
Salem, he studied diligently and systematically. Under the
lutelage of Mentor Graham, he mastered the intricacies of Kirk
ham's grammar, Blair's rhetoric, and studied surveying. From
Jack Kelso he learned to appreciate literature and philosophy,
and by him was introduced to the works of Shakespeare, Burns,
Byron and Hood. He studied law, dipped into natural history
and other scientific works, studied higher mathematics and
plowed his way through Rollin's Ancient history and Gibbon's
Rome. He read Paley's Natural theology, Channing’s sermons,
Theorode Parker’s writings. Prior's Life of Burk, Franklin's
autobiography, a Life of Henry Clay, Voinov's Ruins, Vol
taire’s works, Paine’s Age of Reason. Chambers’ Vestiges of
Creation, Smith’s The Christian’s Defense, and many others.
He later studied Euclid’s geometry. He read a mass of ma
terial on the slavery question, pro and con. All that he read
was well chosen and thoughtfully digested. In his early man
hood lie is quoted as saying: “I will read and study to prepare
myself, for some day my chance will come/’.
It was study such as this, continued through life, and not
a miracle, which made Lincoln a master of the English lan
guage, and a leader among the scholars of his time. It was
the correlation of study with experience and reflection, never
stopping, but always seeking, which gave him his great under
standing of human haTure and human affairs.
Lincoln was not a miracle. He was a development. Most
people who succeed at what they are trying to do are develop
ments. If they keep on succeeding, they must keep on develop
ing. They must treat every experience which comes to them as
an apprenticeship for an experience more difficult and more
worthy of their mettle. They must seek constantly to muster
what they are doing in order that they may pass on to a task
even more difficult and serviceable to accomplish.
I
an inspiration to Americans, particu
larly young Americans. Lincoln
never ceased to have the Instincts ot
a boy. In the gravest moment of his
life he had one eye upon the fishing
streams of his youth and the swim
ming holes he had known. I fancy
he would have left any honor to
walk alone In the woods. The great
est honor ever paid him is his in
fluence today—the broadest Influence
of any American.
