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

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.

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. ’ ’—

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

THE TYPEWRITER’S WORK.
Tour Wife St«r Think She I* Only Ortut
innital, but She b Not.
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.
