II. , In tlio Ohio Maaaztnt ! . the recurrence of another - other anniversary of the birth of Lincoln the com manding figure oC thu great man Is again brought before us. And t was commanding not In the mere outline of his tall frame or in facial xpresslon , but it was commanding re garded as the homo of his great soul. That Is what makes all great men im pressive. What matters It to the cader of history that Socrates was lomcly and ungainly ; that Plato talked but never looked" the phlloso- ilior ho was ; that of the great phl- osopher without whom Christianity ould scarcely have won its way It vas said that Ills bodily presence was veak and his speech contemptible , or hat the conqueror of Marengo and \usterlitz was small in stature ? Here , is In the case of Lincoln , the great- less of soul it was that gave dignity o the body and glorified It ; the fact s , great natures are always impres sive. In his lifetime Solomon was lonored above all others. Ho was de clared to bo the wisest of men. Hut 10 had not the wisdom that achieves ust and lasting results : Had Wash- ngton , Madison and Monroe been no wiser , the country could not bo what t is today , declares a writer in the Christian Work. In the measurements of world-history the years are few Between Columbus and Washington , and fewer still between Washington and Lincoln. Grand , noble , imposing , Lho types of greatness represented by : ho two liven , dearest of all in this land : yet how widely different the jjenesls of each ! The one sprang from Lho highest rank In social life , as at the time It was necessary ho should. On the other hand , it Is the glory alike of the country and the man that Lin coln sprang from the people. For such a conflict as our civil war Lin coln was the best possible , the Ideal leader. The cabin , the bare-footed boy studying by candle-light at night after the hard work of the day , "the rall-spllttcr. " "Honest Abo" these became - came watchwords of inspiration , for they meant Just what the war for the union meant ; they stood for Just that which the future of the country most needed and must have , if the Ideals of a noble humanity were to bo real ized. And wo may fittingly add , and most truly so , that the country will never know what It lost when the as sassin's pistol ended the great man's lite : at least wo may believe that the trying period of reconstruction with the criminal precipitation of n vast horde of Ignorant suffragists upon the Iranchlne would never have been per mitted had Lincoln lived. So It Is , whether wo look back upon \vhat Lincoln did or anticipate what bin wisdom would have done for the country had ho lived , we find In him that which Is typical and prophetic of a greatness only possible In such a "government of the people , for the people and by the people" as It Is oun unspeakable privilege to enjoy. And It is safe to say that as the years and ! the centuries go by , that soul-Journey from log cabin to white house , that Innate greatness of sincerity for hu-i inanity , of reverence for the sacred , of love to man and God will ever- servo to rebuke vanity and sham and points the way and Inspire to that ; only true greatness that puts a patent of nobility upon people and nations. New Lincoln Story. The following unpublished story of Lincoln's relating Is told by Adlal E. Stevenson , former vice-president od the United States. "I knew Lincoln well , " said Mr , Stevenson , "and he once told me this story. When ho was a boy at school there was In the class another boy , who somehow could not learn to read. It was the custom to open school with a selection from the Illblo , each pupil reading a verso in turn. "One morning the story was of the children of Israel and the fiery fur nace , and the verso , with the names of the three men who were cast Into the furnace Shadrach , Mcshach and Abednego fell to the lot of the little boy who couldn't road. Ho made n stagger at It , but didn't do very well , and was rewarded by a hearty slap from the teacher. lie cried a little , then the reading went on. "All of a sudden , for no cause that anyone could see , ho began to cry afresh. A halt was called on the readIng - Ing , and the teacher demanded to know the cause of the uproar. " 'If you don't stop that crying I'll glvo you another slap , ' said the do- mlnle severely. ' " 'An' I don't care if you do , ' sobbed the boy. 'That's Just what I'm crying about , anyhow. I've counted up tho. verses , and when It's my turn again I'll just have to read them same d names all over ! ' " 'ART OF HIS BRAIN GONE Jt. Louts Boy Romps and Playa and Is Bright Dccplto the Loss.

The weapon was discharged and the bullet lodged In Freddy's head. The wounded boy was taken to the hospital and lay unconscious for three days. Moro than n tablcspoonful of brains oozed out , but the bulet re fused to follow , and the doctors said that with a hole extending three inches Into his head Freddy must tile. However , Freddy had no notion of dying. His parents took him home as Boon as the doctors said they could not save him. To-day he is the live liest six-year-old In the neighborhood of hla homo at 4124 Hull place. Ho runs , jumps , and plays like any other youngster , knows everybody by name , and Is apparently a healthy boy of un usually bright mind.

MISS MORGAN'S UNION PLANS Banker's Daughter Expects to Rcor. gnnlze Girl Workers and Elimin ate Socialistic Features. New York.

According to a statement given out here , Miss Morgan bolloves that one ot the greatest detriments to the cause Is its tendency towards socialism. She thinks also that the leaders ol the unsophisticated girl unionists fre quently abuse their office. "It Is Miss Morgan's purpose to un dertake the organization ot women workers on a different basis than at present , but with the same object In view , " is the announcement. The New Neuritis.

NOT SLEEP ' "I write to tell you how thankful I am for the wonderful Cutlcura Rem edies. My little niece had eczema for live years and when her mother died I took care of the child. It was all over her face and body , also on her head. She scratched so that she could not sleep nights. I used Cuticura Soap to wash her with and then ap plied Cuticura Ointment. I did not use quite half the Cuticura Soap and Ointment , together with Cuticura Re solvent , when you could see a change , and they cured her nicely. Now she i ' Is eleven years old and has never been bothered with eczema since. My ' friends think it is just great the way the baby was cured by Cuticura. I send you a picture taken when she was about IS months old. "She was taken with the eczema when two years old. She was covered with big sores and her mother had all the best doctors and tried all kinds of salves and medicines without effect until we used Cuticura Remedies. Mrs. II. Kicrnan , fG3 !

But it has illuminated that statement and given it a manning ever broadening with the increasing breadth of knowledge. When the blood is " bad " or impure it is not alone the body which suffers through disease. The brain is also clouded , the mind and judgement are effected , and many an evil deed or impure thought may be directly traced to the impurity of the blood. Foul , impure blood can be made purs by the use of Dr. Pierce's Qolden Medical Discover ) : It enriches and purifies tli blood thereby curing , pimples , blotches , eruptions and other cutaneous affec tions , as eczema , tetter , or salt-rheum , hires and other manifes tations of Impure blood. In the cure of scrofulous swellings , enlarged glands , open eating ulcers , or old sores , the " Golden Medical Discovery" has per formed the most marvelous cures. In cases of old sores , or open eating ulcers , it is well to apply to the open sores Dr. Picrce's All- Healing Salve , which possesses wonderful healing potency when used as an application to the sores in conjunction with the use of "Golden Medical Discovery" as a blood cleansing constitutional treatment. If your druggist don't happen to have tlie "All-Heal ing Salve" in stock , you can easily procure it by inclosing fifty \ cents in postage stamps to Dr. R.V. Pierce , CG3 Main St. , Buffalo , N. Y. , and it will come to you by return post. Most druggists keep it as well as the " Golden Medical Discovery.
