THE CENTRE REPORTEK. | : Supp'ement. CeExTrE Harn Pa. Jun 25, 1888 Personalities about Presidents. When Iwas a little girl (writes “Miss Grundy”) in the Louisville Courier. Journal) I used to read with delight the stories of the courtesies our early resi- dents habitually showed to children and poor people whom they chanced to meet, and especially to those who did not know tie high station of the gentle- men who helped them in some simple, unpretepding way. 1 remember one, which has found a place in history, which relates how Mr. defferson, while President, was riding over the rough country roads between Monticello and i Washington City on his way to his | home in the Executive Mansion, and, } observing a little lad trudging along in : the mud, took him in his buggy, and he | took him some distance on his journey, | treating him with the greatest courtesy, | notwithstanding the child, unaware! who his new friend was, let fall some unpleasant remarks touching Mr. Jeff-| erson caught up from his relatives, who were political SPposgnts of that states man. The child was told before the partine to come to the White House, if ever he enme to Washington, and. send in his name. This be'subsequently did, and was cordially welcomed by the President, and given a meal at his ta ble. A similar story, pever before pub. lished, has been told me of President Johnson, by one who was riding with | him one day about three miles outside | the city. He saw a poor woman witha child in ber arms making ber way Glow. ly and painfully towards town, and he, Knowing nothing of her, stopped, took her and the little one into his carriage, and took them to the place she desig nated in the city, but never mentioning who it was who had thus earned the gratitude she expressed. i rs col A A ——s i ENCOURAGING. _ Baving been encouraged by the stead incrumss uf busiowss, 1 bave remodeled, reprinted and added to the externs! as DRUG HOUSE, thereby m skiing it more i would now thank ny customers for thelr [ib ral pats ronu.ce in Lhe past, and solici: a eo itinus wute of the same.
