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. Sometimes a girl thinks to bo a little dear she must bo a little,.bare.
