"IT IS A POOR SERMON THAT DOES NOT HIT SOMEWHERE."

President Lincoln was wont to carry his mother's old Bible about with
him in the Capital City. Often he would be consulting it in mental
plights. He said that the Psalms was the part he liked best. "The
Psalms have something for every day in the week, and something for
every poor fellow like me."

THE RELIGION OF FEELING.

Lincoln told a friend that he heard a man named Glenn say at an
Indiana church-meeting:

"When I do good, I feel good; when I do bad, I feel bad; that is my
religion!"
