the widow away without Q cent.
This was the case:

and was killed. dis widow was left
destitute. Through Lawyer Ralph Gil

tractors for $4,000.
Tho contractors replied that the land
on which tho power house was being
constructed had been sold In 1914 by
Daniel T.. Tompisins to the United
state Government. Therefor Mrs. Lud-
wig had no cause of action In the state
courts. and she could not sue the
United States for damages because u
statute prohibits any ono doing work
for the Federal Government from col

service.

kIouu Sardou Wrntn.

More than once in his letters and pamphlets SardOu has described his methods of work says Jerome A. Hart in his "SardOu and the Sardou Plays" Whenever an idea occurred to him he immediately made a mem orandum of it. These notes he classi- fled and filed. For example, years be- fore the production of 'Therrnidor' he had the thought of one day such play. Gradually the character of Fabi- enne shaped itself; Labussiere was devised later to fit Coquelin. Every- thing that he read about the epoch of the French revolution, and the ideas which this reading inspired, he wrote down in the form of rough notes. En- cravings, maps. prints, and other doc uments of the time he carefully col lected
 Memoirs and histories he annotated and indeXed, filing away the index references in his file cases, or dossiers At the time of his death Sardou had many hundreds of these dossiers, old and new. Some of the older ones had been worked up into plays. while the newer ones were merely raw material for future dramas. When the idea of 0 play had measurably shaped itself in his mind he wrote out a skeleton plot which he placed in it's dossieT There it might lie indefinitely. In this shape "Thermidor remained for nearly twenty years. and 'Theodora' for ten.
 ''When he considered that the time was ripe for one of his embryonic plays Sardou wold take out that par ticular dossier read over the material. and lay it aside again. After it had fermented in his brain for time he would, if the inspiration seized him. write out a scenario. After this he began the actual writing of the play"

Grace Darling.

Dear Uncle Jed: I thought I would write to you about Grace Darling. It was a dark September morning and there was a storm at sea. A ship had been driven on the low rocks off the shores of the Farce Islands. It had been broken in two by the waves and half of ii had been washed away. The other half lay yet on the rock, and those of the crew who were still alive were clinging to it.
 On one Of the islands was light house; and there, all through that long night. Grace Darling had listened to the storm. Grace was the daughter of the lighthouse keeper, and she had lived as long as she could remember.
 We must try to save them.' she cried, Let us go out in the boat at oncei We cannot stay here and see them die,'' said Grace, we must at least try to save them"
 In few minutes they were ready. They set off in the heavy lighthouse boat. At last they were close to the rock. and now they were in greater danger than before. But after many trials Graces father climbed upon the wreck, while Grace herself held the boat. Then, one by one. the worn out crew were helped on board. Her father climbed back into his place. Strong hands grasped the oars and soon all were safe in the lighthouse.

kindnasa Re+urned.

Dear Uncle Jed: This is my first at tempt at story making.
 A lady was one day walking to a station. She saw a cab and called to the man to take her to her destination. On the way she saw a barefoot boy walking along the road, looking very sad and weary.
 She asked the coachman to take him up, and said: T shall pay a, fare for him.
 When he came to his journeys end she learned he was bound for the nearest seaport to offer himself as a sailor.
 Twenty years later a robust looking sea captain was riding along in a stagecoach, on this very same road, when he saw a poor old lady walking wearily along. The captain told the coachman to pull up his horses, and, putting the old lady in. he said: T shall pay for her. The old lady thanked him and said: T am too poor to pay for q ride now 1 that I am old and feeble" The captain answered: ''I always feel for those who have to walk. I re- member twenty years ago I was a poor lad, walking along this very road, when a kind lady paid my fare"
 "Oh.," said she, T was that lady but things have changed since then" The captain said: T have made a 1 fortune and have come home to enjoy 1 it. I will allow you $125 every year as long as you live The old lady burst Into tears while she thanked him again and again for l his generosity. CATHALEEN HICKEY, Age 13. WilIimantic
