ABSENT. She naver said, “Lost is my dearest one,” The phrase “Not living” would have hushed her song Of faith. Hew could his silent voyage seem long When she, whose joyless days had new be gun. Said "Absent” with a smile which meant the sun Was only dimmed by clouds? Then, if a throng Of painful thoughts pressed hard. It made her strong To think, how he would wish life’s duties done. In her sweet face, where grief had left Its seam, A tender gladness dawned as years took flight And brought the meeting near. Nor did she dream That from her trusting heart there shone a light JPor eyes too weal: to l>ear the larger gleam That led her on, as stars redeem the night. —Mary Thacher Higginson. A NARROW ESCAPE. Just before the war broke out between France and Germany I arrived in the latter country with the view of studying at one of the southern universities. In the meantime, however, I was spending a few weeks at Frankfort-on-the-Main, where I found much to interest me, and especially in regard to the early life of Goethe, who was bom there. But the pleasure of the sojourn was greatly damped by the trouble the police gave me. At this time, although well acquaint ed with German grammatically, I could speak but a few words of the language. Knowing French, however, I managed to get on pretty well, all the waiters in the hotels and cafes knowing something of that tongue, and most of the trades people talking it a little. Having be sides spent a little time previously in Paris, I had perhaps become somewhat Frenchified. I had to this extent any way—that I wore my hair rather short and waxed the ends of my mustache. To this circumstance and to the fact that I spoke French in preference to either English or German must, I imagine, be attributed the annoyance, and even trou ble, to which 1 soon began to be sub jected. When I first took up my temporary abode in the imperial city, I made the necessary announcement of my intention to the police. I made it from the Hotel Garni, in which I first installed myself. I made it again from the private lodging I hired. I repeated it when I removed to more commodious and salubrious quarters in the suburbs of the city. But all this was not enough. I had no sooner settled down in my new quarters —nay, before I had time thus to settle down—I was honored by one of the gen try with the pickelhaube and sword who pass for policemen in that laud of soldiers. He generally commenced by asking my name and profession, where I was bom, who was my father and who my mother, what I came to the fatherland for and other similar questions. While thus catechising me he would take mi nute stock of my apartment. His visit would be followed in a day or two by that of another officer, who would put me through the same or a very similar catechism. Then, by way of variation, I would be summoned to qne of the dis trict police stations—places more like barracks than anything else—there to be again subjected to a perfect enfilade of questionings and cross questionings. These were all the more perplexing be cause of my inability to express myself in German and my tormentors’ ignorance of either F rench or English. This went on, as I say, for some time, till, in fact, I was at my wits’ end to know what it all meant. I asked several of my friends, but they conld not en lighten me. I proposed to shat the door in the face of the next pickelhaube that called and refuse to respond to the sum mons of the next inspector—or what ever he might be—of police. But the bare suggestion of such a course horri fied my friends, for Frankfort was then a conquered city and was treated as such. They informed me that to act in such a way would be regarded as tanta mount to high treason, and that as the result I might find myself in prison or else conducted with scant ceremony over the frontier. Finally I had a summons from the chief of police himself. He was a major of the Prussian army and was a tall, broad shouldered and very austere look ing personage. My first interview with this gentleman lasted over half an hour. He asked me if I had ever been in the army, used a rifle, played with the sword; if I knew Paris, Bordeaux, Stras burg; where I was born, where my mother was when I was bom (a literal fact), if I had any brothers and sisters; their names, and so forth. A second, third, and even a fourth time I was closeted with this same func tionary, each time being plied with more and more perplexing, and, as they seemed to me, absurd questions. On the occasion of one of these visits I was asked to produce a photograph of my self, if I had one. As I happened to have one which had been taken a little while previously in Paris, I forwarded this with my compliments to the major, with the hope that when he wished to look upon my face again he would sat isfy himself by gazing upon my “coun terfeit presentment” instead. Finally I became so tired of these in quisitions, and, as I had reason to be lieve, private examination of my papers when I was out, that I was sincerely thinking of relinquishing my real pur pose of becoming acquainted with Ger man philosophy and making a little money by newspaper correspondence. I had gone so far as to give my landlady notice to quit, when suddenly a change came over the scene. Responding one day to a summons from the major, I was agreeably sur prised to find the worthy fellow in a re markably good humor. He shook me by the hand, as though I had long been his dearest friend, smiled all over his face, assured me that I was all “goot” and “recht,” and so dismissed me more per plexed than ever. Very soon afterward war was de clared, and in the turmoil, danger and excitement that eiur.od I woll nigh forgot the annoyance and frequent in convenience 1 had been put to by the suspicions of the police. Possibly I should have thought no more about them and have quite forgotten them by this time but for an incident that occurred shortly after the close of the war. I was again in Frankfort, paying a short visit to friends. One evening I was at a party given by a lady residing in the city. While engaged in conversa tion with the editor of one of the local papers the hostess approached me and said: “Allow me, Mr. -, to introduce yon to my very good friend. Colonel Gutsjr icht." I turned to bo introduced, and who should I ceo before mo but my friend the major, formerly the chief of police at Frankfort! We both smiled as we recognized each other. “Ah, you have met before, then?’’ said the lady. We both replied in the affirmative. “Then I will leave you to yourselves. Yon do not need any introduction from me. ” The colonel had been through the war and had distinguished himself greatly. During our conversation I said: “I wish you would tell me, colonel, why you paid me such constant and un remitting attention when I first came to Frankfort. ” “Ah, yes, yon would like to know!” he said. “Well, come to my office to morrow, and I will show you. That will be better than telling you.” he added, with a broad smile. He gave the address of his office, which was still connected with the po lice, and I called there on the following morning. After a few minutes’ conversation on the subject of the war and our experi ences in connection therewith Colonel Gutsmicht remarked: “But you wish to be enlightened in regard to the attentions people paid to you when you first came among us?” I replied that it would gratify me very much to be enlightened on the subject. He thereupon unlocked a drawer in his escritoire, and after a little search drew forth a small bundle of papers tied together with tape. Undoing these, he handed to me a photograph and said: “That, I think, is your photograph, Mr. -?” At first I thought it was, but on look ing a second time I saw that it was not and said: * \ “No, colonel, that i3 not the photo- ! graph I gave you a year or more ago, but it seems to me it is so much like myself that it might very well pass for me.” I beg your pardon. This, then, will be yours. ’ ’ He handed me another, which was the real one I had given him. I compared the two and was really astonished at the resemblance they bore to each other. ‘ ‘Can you wonder, ’ ’ asked the colonel, “that we took you for some one else?” “I can’t, ” I said. “But who was the some one else, and what did you want him for?” “This individual,” replied the col onel, taking the photograph of my dou ble and speaking with great delibera tion, “this individual was an Alsatian and was wanted as a spy. He gave us a great deal of trouble—he was so clever. We took you for him. We were almost certain you were the man, although we were considerably nonplused by your apparent innocence of all knowledge of arms and military matters. But though we had our doubts you would probably have suffered had we not found the right man in the nick of time. ” “Suffered?” said L “In what way?” “In this way,’’replied the colonel, and he made as though tightening a rope beneath his right ear, at the same time emitting a sound like the dropping of a catch or bolt. I comprehended his meaning. I had very narrowly escaped hanging as a sup posed spy. It was gratifying, but made my blood run cold. “We were much troubled with Frenoh spies about that time and had to be se vere with them, ’ ’ added the police offi cial, with a shrug of the shoulders, as he put away the papers and photographs. “You now know the reason of the little attentions we bestowed upon you. ’ ’— Alfred J. Story in Million. A Generous Husband. The miller’s wife was just breathing her last, the family and neighbors were praying, while above the soughing of the wind could be heard the husband’s fervent “Amen” each time a neighbor ing widow repeated “O Lord, thy will be done. ” The wife turned to the sorrowful members there and said: “I’m dying, but before I go, Reuben, remember I want you to promise me you will put a little flower on my grave. Will you, dear?” The miller looked at the hand some young widow and replied, “My dear, don’t worry or let that detain you, for you 8ha-shall have a-a bu-barrel of the best brand in my mill every sum mer!” She recovered.—Arkansas Trav eler.

Few people imagine the amount of la bor involved in a day’s typewriting or realize the distance the hand travels in that length of time. The highest rate of speed ever attain ed is 200 words a minute. This is sup pose! 1 to be the result of the most rapid movements the human hands are capa ble of. The person making this record maintained this spaed for only four con secutive minutes and has never been able to exceed that limit. Assuming the words averaged six let ters apiece, 1,200 letters a minute were written. It is estimated that to make each let ter tbo fingers are raiecd to a height of two inches from the keyboard. Two inches added for the descending move ment make the fingers travel four inches before each latter is struck. So this ex pert’s hand in writing these 200 words traveled 4,800 inches, 400 feet daring the minute in which 6he wrote the 200 words. But this is unusual, of course. Very rapid writing is a speed of 75 words a miuute, and this rate is too fast for com fort. Practical work is 10 pages of legal paper an hour. Each page contains 300 words. Six hours’ steady writing can be re garded as an entire day’s work. This is a speed of 50 words a minute, and the practical worker writes during the day 60 pages—18,000 words, or 108,000 let ters. If her fingers travel four inches to make each letter, during the day they travel 432,000 inches. This provides for the perpendicular movement only, and it is fair to increase this distance by one-third to estimate the distance the hands travel over the keyboard in a horizontal direction. The total sum in inches is 576,000. This is equivalent to 48,000 feet, or a little over nine miles a day. In a week the hands can cover 54 miles; in a year’s steady application to business over 2,800 miles.—Bookkeeper. And Slie Never Sent Them to School. They say that the school attendance officer in a thriving provincial town, which shall be nameless, was recently the victim of a practical joke. He received an anonymous letter in forming him that at a certain house were “two kids” who were not attend ing school. Ho at once started for the house indicated, and in reply to his of ficial knock came the good woman of the house. “You have two children who do not go to school, ” said the officer. “Children?” said the woman. “We’ve no children. ” “Oh, yes, you have!” said the officer. The woman stepped back and called her husabnd: “Here, John, here’s a man says we have some children and they don’t go to school. ” John came forward. “You are mistaken, sir, ” said he. “But read this, ” persisted the officer. The man read, at first with a puzzled expression, and then a light broke over his face. “Yes,” he said at last, “1 suppose 1 must admit. My kids don’t attend school, certainly, because I really don’t like to send them. ” “It doesn’t matter what you like. They will have to go, ” said the officer. “Let me see them!” The man meekly led the way to an outhouse, where, calmly reposing by the side of an old naunygoat, were the two veritable “kids.”—London Tit-Bits. A Hero. “Last summer a man in my employ exhibited an act of presence of mind and self control that might well be compared to the deeds of daring on the field of battle,” remarked John L. Nevins, a New York contractor. “Two workmen were engaged in repairing the lightning rod of the steeple of a church. To ac complish this somewhat difficult and dangerous task it had become necessary for one of the workmen to stand on the shoulders of his companion. While in this position a sudden gust of wind caused him to spill a quantity of molten lead, which fell on the hand and arm of his friend. Notwithstanding the sud den and intense pain, the brave man never flinched and had the courage to remain motionless while the lead burn ed its way into his flesh. He knew that a movement of his was liable to precipi tate his companion from the dizzy height into the street below, and he en dured the pain rather than risk the life of his fellow worker. ’ ’—St. Louis Globe Democrat. Government Time Signals. As the government’s time signals are not generally understood, it may be said that the United States time ball is drop ped from the top of a flagstaff on the dome of the Masonic temple as follows: The time ball is hoisted to the top of the staff, 350 feet above the level of the lake, five minutes before noon, central standard time, every day (Sunday ex cepted), remains mast headed five min utes and is dropped by electricity exact ly at the instant of noon. Should any accident occur by which the time ball is dropped before the exact instant of noon, it will be hoisted again imme diately and left up until five minutes after noon and then be slowly lowered, instead of being dropped. Similarly, should the time ball fail to drop exactly at the proper instant, it will be kept up until five minutes after noon and then slowly lowered. —Chicago Tribuna Sisterly Sarcasm. “Have yon a sistah?” said Willie Wishington. “No, ” replied his friend. “Then yon cannot wealize what it is to be so humiliated. I was telling "my sistah last night abont a yonng woman I sometimes oall upon. I wemahked that she made me feel like a fool. ” “And what did your sister say?” “She said that I was too self con scious ”—Washington Star. wwgpirom • pM——— BRIGHT'S DISEASE Has Been Proven to Be Catarrh of'tue Kiunevs. A letter from Mrs. Mnrv A.
