Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 22, Number 41, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 8 February 1901 — Lincoln's Proverbs. [ARTICLE]
Lincoln's Proverbs.
An autograph letter that I would like to own was shown me a few days ago. ”A. Lincoln” was bqldly signed at the end of it, and this wisdom was there,
paragraphed in this wise: “Do not worry.” “Eat three square meals a day.” “Say your prayers.” “Think of your wife.” “Be courteous to your creditors.” “Keep your digestion good.” “Steer clear of biliousness.” “Exercise.” “Go slow and easy.” “Maybe there are other things that your special case requires to make you happy, but, my friend, these, I reckon, will give you a good lift.” —New York Times.
