A Lincoln Anecdote. Jasoar Albuo Conant tella tba fot lowing anecdote of Lincoln lu tbe Met- ropotitan Magaxlne! One of the comical character.

"Out there's ona thing we long fur-yea. thirst fur with a burning thirst That'a noise a real, nerve racking, ear splittlug uolse. The long hours of'soft silence, tbe dead stillness of everything about, grows so oppressive that at times we could shriek out We get Into a ft of sickroom tiptoe and a low tone of voice that finally degeneratea Into a whisper even at the telephone.
