"LOG-CABIN” PRESIDENTS.
Abrnlmni Lincoln was not tho only
log-cabin 11 President.
Two of our other Presidents—Andrew
Jackson mid Andrew -Johnson—were
reared In extreme poverty and climbed
to tho highest office in the land over
nlninst insurmountable obstneles.
The poverty of Lincoln was hard but
wholesome: tho poverty of Johnson mid
.laekson wns at times so sovoro end
blighting that It would have withered
any except tho most Indomitable.spirits.
The father of Jitbknon was a poor
farm laborer who died before his son 'b
birth | and while the lad wns still in
Ids early" 'teens Ills mother contracted
fever and died. Whatever education lie
obtained wns the result of his own en
ergy and initiative. Yet ho not only
uiuunged to earn Ills board and lodging,
but was so successful In liiq studies flint
while still under 20 lie was admitted to
tho bar as attorney and counselor,
Andrew Johnson’s rise was against
oven greater inlsfortunoB aiid discour
agements. His father died when the boy
was 4, nnd at 10, the fnmlly bolug
poverty-stricken, Andrew wns bound nut
to a tailor. At 18 he married, nnd his
wlfo taught him writing nnd ordinary
arithmetic. Thirty-nine years later tho
nssnsslnatiou of Lincoln clevatod him to
the Presidency.
