Lincoln's life falls Into two great dlvlslotis-that preceding the re. peal of the MUnourl rooinminlae and tue rortnatiou of the Republican tar ty and (hat following thoie twbi eventa. Ills one term In eongrcas ws tlie laet ImiMirtant public aen'tce In the flint jierlod, Following this were Ave or al yenra of law with little or no politic... In eongreeo Lincoln had gained a reputation aa a story teller ana wit, bad made oua or two cam paign speeches, bad Introduced a mcaiura to abollah slavery In the Dis trict of Columbia and bad refused to say that the Mexican war was right eon. Following his term he had ap plied for the office of laud commission er, to which be bad not been appoint ed, and bad been offured the governor- nip or Oregon, which be declined. In MO be refused another notnliinilon to congress and tit 1832 delivered a eulogy on Henry Clay. It was in 1851 that be really re-entered politic, be ing stirred thereto by the ropes! of the Mliutourl coinproinUc. That year lie wa elected to tbe legislature, but refused to serve. He was aluo a can didate for I'olted mate senator, com ing within a few votes of winning. With rare uuwlfliihucws he threw all hta afr.ngtb to Lymnn Trumbull and elected him. For Lincoln to go to Trumbull, who bnd but a haudnd of euppvriont, wn llko Ilia tail wagging the flog, but It (irevetited the election Of a pralnvery man. In ISM Mr. Lincoln participated hi the formation of the Itepabltcau party, umklnK ti Ik KruAt "loet ieich" nt Dloomtngton. He also received 110 votes for vice prenldent In the Repub lican national convention and ran for lector on the Fremont ticket Two years Inter en me his great debate with Douglas, which were held at Ot tawa, Froeiiort, Joneaboro, Charleston. Uatiwluirg. quiitcy and Alton. As a reault he bad a (Kpular majority, but waa beaten by holdover aenatora aud a gerrymander. Following the struggle with Doug laa Mr. Lincoln made apeecbes In Ohio, Kansas, New Kugiand and tbe famous addrves In Cooer Union, New fork. Early In 1800 the Illinois etnts conven tion Instructed for him for president, and In the national convention that Diet at Chicago, May 10-10, bo was nominated ou the third ballot. In tbe following campaign Mr. I.lncolu re mained at borne and declined to make speeches. The Democratic party spilt on, ela very, which made his election possible. Following tbe aunounceineut of the result many of tba southern States seceded, bat tbe president elect refused to be drawn Into any pnbllc utterance aa to hla policy.

WHAT FASHION DECREES. A Forecast of Boring Fsthion What "Buibl.i" Art. A llltle bird who nick op crumbs of knowledge In the most secret recessee of the dretoiiimklrig establishment nys that nest spring fashion will usher In again low necks and abort sleeves. Ear reaching collar and tlabt leeves to tbe finger tip will be anions ttinrrr bcijool dkss-77. the Jokes of tbe "past before straw bata have lost their first freshness. "Busbies" are tbe amart turbaua of black or white fur which tower above tho facea of smart women who follow closely what la worn in Tarts. A stiff aud full cockade act a bit to ou side near the front Is the correct trimming, but many wine milliners add taste to hat la amart and replace the stiff cockade by an algret of white on a black bat, aud vice versa, that apringi np etrnight and yet Is aoft Ilka the apray ot a fountain. Ottoman effects In silk, wool and cotton are at tho height of popularity Juat now. A dainty school frock Is seen Ita tbe cot that depends for lta attractiveness upon the Irregular shaped panel aeen on tho front of tbe walat which broadens out over tbe sbonldcrs to the waist Una In the back. Ji'DIC CHOLLET. FRIBBLES OF FASHION. Maris Leuii Styl of HalrdrtMlng. Gold a Dittmetlvs Color. Tbe Msrle Louies style of hair dress ing Is the latest approved fashion. The hnlr la parted on tbe aide, and a great mauy little puffs and curls are used on either side of the face. Though certainly chic, It Is only becoming to a few tyres. 1 By this time It Is plain to every wo man who takea tbe trouble to lock AM XHPIRB XIMCuSO im. ' about her that gold Is one of the most distinctive eolor notes ot, the season She will also note tbe value of fur as a dress trimming, tittle Danus or fur trim collar and cuffs on handsome gowns. When choosing negllgeea the thing aought after is comfort, but every one Insists that they must, be dainty as well. Tbey do not change so noticea bly In style as do other garments, yet a pronounced fashion feature finds expression even In the negligee.
