I heard "a story repeated the other day as an "Abo Lincoln story," but which is older, and must have slumbered somewhere for a good while. Certainly it is not one that the politicians would be likely to repeat on the stump, because it reflects on their craft. In a little group at the Paiker House, a rather noisy young poli tician from the City Hall was ech oing the sentiments, of Henry Watterfcon, and defending the principle that the spoils belong to the victor. "I see no reason," said he, "why any Republican should be kept in a federal office here in Boston, while I, a Demo crat, who have worked hard for the party, am left out in the cold." "That reminds me," said an elderly man, whom all the town would recognize if I were to describe him, "of an incident that I heard of early in Lincoln's administration. There was a local politician who went on to "Washington to get an office that he felt sure only awaited his application to be given to him, In a couple of weeks he came back. 'Well, did you get your office?' friends asked him. 'No,' said he. 'Did you see the presi dent?' Tes, of course.' 'What did he say?' 'Well, we went in and stated our errand. He heard us patiently, and then said: "Gentlemen, I am sorry that I have no office for Mr. , but if I can't give you that, I can tell you a story." We thought bebt to hear the story and let him go on. "Once there was a certain king," he said, "who kept an astrol oger to forewarn him of coming events, and especially to tell him whether it were going to rain when he wanted to go on hunting e cpe- ditions. One dav he started off for the forest with his train of la dies and lords for a grand hunt, when the train met a farmer riding a donkey, on the road. 'Good morning, farmer,' said the king. 'Good morning, King,' said the farmer; 'where are you folks go ing?' 'Hunting,', said the king. 'Lord, you'll all get wet!' said the farmer. The king trusted his as trologer of course, and went to the forest; but by mid-day there came on a terrific storm that drenched and buffeted the whole party. When the king returned to his palace he had the astrologer decapitated and sent for the farm er to take his place. 'Law's sake,' said the farmer, 'it ain't me that knows when it's going to rain, it's my donkey. When it's going to be fair weather, that donkey al ways carries his ears forward, so. When it's going to rain he puts 'em back, so.' 'Make the donkey the court astrologer,' shouted the king. It was done. But the king always declared that that ap pointment was the greatest mis take he ever made in his life." Lincoln stepped there. 'Why did he say it was a mistake?' we asked him. 'Didn't the donkey do his duty?' 'Yes,' said the president, "but after that time every donkey in the country wanted an office!" The shout of laughter that echoed from the hotel corridor at the tell ing of this narrative would have made the fortune of two or three entirely new stories. Cor?.

I have tried a number of physicians, but without receiving any permanent benefit. Among tho number were oso or two spoclallats. Tho medicine they applied was like fire to the sore, cacsmg intense. pain. I saw a statement In tho papcr3 telling what S. S. S. bad done for othera similarly afflicted. I procured some at oaco. Before I had used the second bottlo tho neighbors could notice that my cancer was healing up. Mf general health had been bod for two or thxeo years Ihadahackliurcough end spit blood continually. I had a sevexa pain In ray breast. After taking six bottles of S. S. S. ray cough left mo and I grew stouter than I had been for several year3. Hy cancer has healed over all but a little spot about the size of a half dime, and It is rapidly disappear ing, r would advise every one with cancer to give S. S. S. a fair trial. 31 KS. NAXCY J.
