An eyewitness OF an extraordinary in
cident has just brought TO me another of
the many strange stories OF this mighty
tragedy. Sicilian soldier who had es-
capped from the collapse of Monday
dreamed last night that his fiancee was
still alive IN the ruins Of her home. So
vivid was his vision that he obtained per
mission from his commanding officer
early this morning to go with com
panion and search. He called her name
many times and got no response. Then
they selected what seemed a favorable
spot and began digging. They worked
on indefatigably, frequently stopping to
shout into the ruins
After about three hours they thought
they heard a faint reply. FranticaIIy
they delved into the vast heap and short

rescuer may be Imagined as he walked
by her side holding her hand as they
hurried to the shore, and finally gave

Power in sIIence,

Here is a hint for the women who
forget and fret and fuss. Go into the
silence at certain times Of the day.
One need not necessarily retire for
formal prayer. He who is in the
path of duty needs no prayer" said
a wise oriental. But in the silence
you viii find the peace and strength
of prayer. In Withdrawing from the
pressure of things and getting in
touch with the great sources OF pow
er, you will absorb power.-Edwin

grows to the height of so feet, and its
leaves have the peculiar property OF
condensing the moisture from the at

wise be barren desert are BY this

4ov. 10 RulId eood Roads

I'm all this talk about getting better
roads it seems to me that there are
two very simple precautions that no
one has mentioned. In the first place,
in building a road, says a writer in
the Country Gentleman. get, as far as
possible, local contractors. The pres
ent system of state road building
brings a contractor from somewhere
else who may often do a bad job and
vanish. No one follows him, and the
people may rage all they please in
vain. A local man will take more
pride in his job and be more subject
to correction If he doesn't. In the
second place, instead of appropriating
a fixed sum for building a road, let
the amount be left to the discretion
of the officer in charge, who shall es-
innate the cost of such a proposed
road. Then let the contractors bid
on the basis of the percentage of profit
for which they are willing to under
take this work. Now, when a certain
sum is appropriated. / notice that il
is sure to be spent; the contractors
bids just dodge under the total, and
the difference is eaten up by extra
work. | believe the other system
would give more economical results
