<h3>ENCOURAGE LONGING FOR WORK.</h3>
<p>In 1861, the badgered President had so novel an application that he
wrote the annexed note to facilitate its harvest:</p>
<p>"To Major Ramsey: The lady--bearer of this--says she has two sons who
want to work. Set them at it, if possible. Wanting to work is so rare
a merit that it should be encouraged."
