he was, and what pleasant smile he
had-this hero who had lived among
them in disguise, unregarded and neg
lected for so long.
As they bore him down the colonels
granite steps and out into the street.
the Grand Army veterans sang in their
broken voices:
Mine eyes have seen the glory Of the
coming of the Lord
A chorus of trained singers had start
ed the battle hymn, as the colonel
asked; but when the veterans took
it up every other voice was hushed-
nobody else could sing and the vet
Grams finished the hymn alone.
Then the beating, breaking heart of
the military music throbbed in and
claimed its own.
Nobody's Tim was buried as if he
had been the general. Blotted out in
flowers, he seemed to have no grave.
The chaplain read the service as if the
Christian faith wished she could have
owned the hero. The flag folded him
as if it were proud of him. But the
colonel, with barred head, stood little
apart. Lifting his eyes, as
if he perceived what no 9TH
er did, the commanding Off
GER of the old regiment saluted the
unseen spirit of the dead private, as a
soldier salutes his superior. Then the
drum of the veterans sounded taps for
Tim, and three volleys rang across
his grave.
Now, after taps, an unexpected thing
occurred. Some one led up the little
girl, all in white, and her arms were
heaped with pink roses. These she put
delicately, one by one, upon the pyre
of blossoms under which Everybody's
Tim was laid away. Rosamond kissed
the roses before she put them down
it was her own idea. No one spoke or
stirred while she did this, and after.
ward no one added flower.
Then the child (this, too, was her
own idea) quite naturally knelt down
upon the flowers and shut her eyes and
said aloud and distinctly, so that all
the people heard her:
Now lay me down to Sleep
pway We Lord my soul to keep.
II should die before wake up-Amen-"
"Well," said one of the Grand Army
men, with the back of his hand at his
eyes, 81 guess she's with it."
But the colonel, her father, caught
her to his heart and hid his face upon
her soft hair. He did not speak. The
veterans saluted and turned away

acre.
Mr.. w. H. McFalls has been suffer
ng severely for two years with an
lilment that puzzled the doctors and
everybody. The trouble seemed to be
Ill in his head, which had burning
sensation all the time.
Sometimes this burning pain in the
head would be worse than at other
times, but it never left him.
At last he tried a new remedy
called Dodd's Kidney Pills, and was
igreeably surprised to find that the
burning gradually disappeared.
An attack of La Grippe has laid
him up for the last few weeks, but
Dodd's Kidney Pills have banished
his old trouble entirely.
His son George used a few of the
Pills which his father did not need

of his middle life and early age-his
only one. He came to bid her good-by
that day before he went out on the
automobile with her mother. He fold
ed the little girls arms about his neck
and laid his dark cheek to hers, and
kissed her more softly than her mother
did, and not so many times but each
kiss seemed to count for more, for
some reason.
Rose shall ride with papa next
time" he said, to comfort her. "And
Jane will be careful-yery careful,
Jane" added the colonel, with his mill
itary m" nner. Remember all that
have told you about the lake, and the
cars, and the crossings"
"And big dogs" interrupted the
child's mother.
Sand the electric cars" added the
father.
"And cows" suggested the mother.
"And if you should meet fire en-
CINE" finished the father.
They did not meet fire engine. Jane
held the child's hand tight as they
passed the lake. They made the cross
ings without any trouble. There were
no cows. And the only big dog they met
was particular friend and neighbor
of Roses, who offered to escort her
| and take care of her. But Jane told
him it was against her orders; so he
turned away and stayed at home.

Nobody's Tim was still singing in his
| wasted tenor, muff1ed and interrupted
by the pipe, which had not left his lips,
The Kinsley graphic. [volume] (Kinsley, Kan.) 1890-1940, 1902-05-30

except for moment when the colonel
passed.
But fully go seconds before any other
man saw anything, Tim had seen every
thing. 1t was then that the pipe came
out of his mouth. 1t covered the side
walk with splinters.
'God Almighty" groaned Tim. 'The
colonel's baby!"
The long, lean arms of the gates had
dropped, and stretched themselves
nightly across the street. A grown
person could not pass their strong
barricade unless by deliberately stoop-
ing under, and so evading it; but to
the baby girl there was no barricade
at all. The arms of the gate escaped
the topmost rosebud on her rose-white,
rose-pink hat by several inches. And
the child-something scornful of the
nurse, something disdainful of the
grocer's boy-had continued her walk
in pretty, solitary dignity which
comes attimes on little maids like her.
When Tins pipe came out of his
mouth the colonePs Rose had stepped
under the arms of the railway gate.
And the train
Afterward, the gate tender swore
that the train was 40 feet away. But
what are 40 feet2 And the baby girl,
suddenly seeing the monster, bewild-
cred by the roar and smoke and steam,
confused by the horror that she could
not understand, put up her lips and
began to cry, and stood still upon the
track.
It was then that man leaped the
gate and dashed into the throat of
death with a cry whose joyousness
rings to this day in the ears of every
soul who heard it. As he hurled him
self upon the child, his old, faded felt
hat fell off, and the May sunlight
brought out the gold in the brown of
his curly hair.
He flung the baby girl high into the
air. A dozen arms were outstretched
to catch her. She came down against
somebody's neck without a bruise.
Nobody's Tim-how, will never be
known-whether he caught his foot,
or whether there was anything in that
story about his heart and the wound at
Gettysburg it happened, No
body's Tim fell. He did not rise.
They gathered his poor body tender
", remembering, when they did so,
how he had himself performed this
pitiful service for SO many other poor
bodies on the railroad which waited
| for the commissioners to vote about
grade crossings-and somebody picked

ure to certify to the excellent curative
qualities of your medicines-Peruna

more or less for quarter of q century
with catarrh Of the stomach and con-

has increased these troubles. A few
bottles of your medicine have given me
almost complete relief, and l am sure
that a continuation OF them will effect
a permanent cure."'J. ID. Botkin.

The most common form of summer

up the old brown felt hat. and some.
body else asked:
what shall we do with him?" For
Nobody's Tim, you remember, had
neither wife nor child, neither Gown
folks" nor home.
Then, out of the silent crowd which
had thickened in the square, sudden
voices rose:
'.Pll take him to my house" !.
"And I"
81 will" &, --<5asi
"No! We will
"No, let US"
And the voices strove with one an
other, till it seemed as if all Sunshine
were competing to be "own folks" to
Tim.
For, in the flashing of noble deed,
Nobody's Tim had become Everybody's
Tim, and the whole town pressed to do
him honor.
Now. at this moment, the silver trail
of distant steam carriage could be
seen melting along the smooth road.
Hold on!" said the cab driver.
That's the colonel. He's got some
thing to say about this"
Memorial day dawned clear, hot and
shining, as it almost always is. No
one in Sunshine went to the baseball
games or cared for the bicycle races
on the sacred national festival of that
year; but all Sunshine followed the
pathetic remnant of the Grand Army
when the gray-haired group formed
to escort their homeless, dead comrade
from the colonel's home.
No one remembered on that morning
that Tim used to drink; that he did
not work; that he had neither place
nor name, nor character among his
neighbors. Everyone remembered
rather how kind he was, and how gen.
erous of impulse, what good company
