Show NOT WHAT HE HAD PICTURED Athletic Girl Hardly the Domsstla Jewel That Fond Fancy Had Pictured. J 1 Not long ago a man married an athletic girl, thinking how fine It would be to have a wife who would be able to wait on herself and build the Urea, if necessary, and keep the dust demon on the jump without bringing on an acuie attack of nervous prostration. Suld he to himself: "A girl who swims and rows and plays a rattling good game of tennis, not to speak of ber fondness for walking and driving, la sure to be a domestic jewel. If we happen to he without a servant, she can keep the household machinery humming." Somebody must have told that girl she was marrying a man with money. Anyhow, she hasn't been able to dress herself without the assistance of a maid, and the only time she has ever had the broom in her "hands was one day when she picked It up to hit the cat with. If she'd clean house for as much as half an hour she'd have to go away to some fashionable springs to recuperate. And yet. to look at her, you wouldn't think she was so delicate. Exchange.

To the great majority of the thousands of tourists who every year visit Washington, the very existence of this structure, to say nothing of its significance, Is unknown, and yet its history sheds a new and illuminating side light on the simplicity and kindliness of Lincoln's private life. This hidden tribute to the of the venerated chief magistrate is nothing less than a toy shop to which the busy man, bowed down by the weight of a devastating war, stole away time and again to buy wooden soldiers and other playthings for the mischievous Tad who constituted during this stormy period the one ray of sunlight in his father's life.

Thomas Pendel. half a dozen presidents. Tad Lincoln came here not infrequently to luy toys but more often it was the president himself, who made the trip In quest of some new plaything as a surprise for the little lad who was the apple of his eye. Time and again passersby saw the tall figure of the chief executive, wrapped In his big shawl and wearing his distinctive high hat, emerge from the little shop carefully newest Incarrying a pockago of the ventions of "Stuntz, toynmker." There Is evldonce, too, that Lincoln came to have a real affection for the crippled veteran of Waterloo who, with wounded foot propped on a chair, worked new day In, day out, deftly creating n only until the comparatively early hour when Tad, exhausted by his strenuous activities, went Into a sound sleep. On many of his visits to the toy shop President Lincoln was accompanied by the late Thomas Pendel, who was at his death the dean of the White House attaches In point of continuous service a member of President Lincoln's personal staff. Pendel was always a great favorite with Tad and the youngster, who had a slight Impediment In his speech always called him "Tom Pen." Pendel was sr much In the company of the president's son and knew his desires and ambitions In the matter of toys so well that not infrequently on the occasion of the visits after nightfall to the little toy shop he was better able to judge than was President Lincoln as to what playthings would most please the lad who had the largest place In the chief magistrate's heart "Tad" often went to Bleep in Pendel's arms and It fell to the lot of "Tom Pen" to soothe and console the lad when news came of the tragedy at Ford's theater. Often the, visits of the president and Tad to the little toy shop, almost within sight of the White House, were coincident with the receipt in Washington of news of some defeat to the union forces and It was suspected that the president choose this form of outing as the one best calculated to take bis mind off the disheartening situation. One such visit was made Just after the battle of Fredericksburg In which the union loss In killed and wounded was very heavy. Arrived at the toy shop Tad amused himself shooting down little tin soldiers by means of a toy cannon, all unmindful of the significance of the spectacle to his distraught father. However, the president saw the grim suggestion In the childish play and turning to the toymaker who stood near he Inquired: "Does It hurt you an much to have your soldiers shot down as It does me to have mine?" Among the toys that were purchased for Tad at the little shop that la now historic was a set of tools and these the Inquisitive young workman tried on everything around the White House. A Lincoln Anecdote.' President Lincoln was an unusually tall man and was said to be rather vain of his height, but one day a man called on him who was really three Inches taller. "Really," said the president, "I must look up to you.
