LlNCOLle MEMORY.

Told Where He Had Put a Whetstone
. Fifteen Years Before.
‘ 1: It is said that Abraham Lincoln never
forgot 'a face and was never at less to
' :3 greet by name any person whom he had
‘ ever known. Possibly this may be an
1 exaggeration. but many anecdotes are
told which go to prove that the great
president did have a wonderful memory.
When he was a comparatively young

man and a candidate for the Illinois leg-
lslature. he made a personal canvass of
his district. While “swinging around
the circle” he stopped one day and took
dinner with a farmer in Sangamon
, county.
' Years afterward, when Lincoln had
,1 become president. a soldier came to call

on him at the White House. At the first
glance thexc'hief executive said:
"Yes. I remember ,you.
live on the Danville road. I took dinner
with you when I was running for the
legislature. I recollect that we stood
talking together out at the barnyard
.311. while I sharpened my jackknife/ "

"Ya-as.” druwled the soldier. “You

did. But, say. wherever did you put that
Whetstone? I looked for it a dozen times.
but: I never oculd find it after the day
you used it. We 'lowed as ,how mebbv
you tool: it 'long with you.” .

~ ”No. " said Lincoln, looking serious
and pushing away a lot of documents of
state from the desk in front of him
“No, I put it on top of that gate'postm

'.Wsll." exclaimed the visitor, "meb-
' ”11h did. Couldn't nobody else have

to“ look there fer it. ”

Young Abe probably cut down the tree
himself. sawed out the boards with a
crosscut saw. planed them by hand Ind
fastened the parts together without the
aid of a single iron nail. His father is
said to have given some aid in the mak-

the work of the man who afterward con-
