THE NEAR FUTURE

Abraham Lincoln, together
with many special and regular features
which had to be omitted this week be-
cause of the great quantity of material
commemorating the birth of Lincoln,
will appear in the nest Issue of The
National

Special Announcement

THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN

asked Cartoonist Reid for a Lincoln
drawing for this Lincoln issue of The
National Republican, and the result,
presented upon this page, is believed
to be the finest pen drawing of the
great savior of the Union ever made.
The imperfect photography of the
Civil war era made it impossible for
the camera to do justice to the strong
yet gentle lineaments of Lincoln. The
predominance of the beard in such pic-
tures and the awkward posing have
given an impression of ugliness in Lin-
coln not justified by the man himself
or by the photographs of the face only,
without the beard, before the Civil
war. Mr. Reid has drawn the real Lin-
coln in this remarkable picture. How
copies of the sketch suitable for fram-
ing, signed by the artist, Mr. Reid,
may be had, is told on the second page
of this issue of The National Repub-
lican.
