Dimly she remembered what had
happened; how she had taken the
touring-car and started downtown to
meet her father at his office; how she
mad swerved to avoid running down
"a street urchin who had sprung from
nowhere directly in front Of her car;
how there had been Changing OF
gongs and q grinding Of brakes In her
car, and looming vision of the men,
acing front of Il heavy street car over
her very head; then darkness and
void, till the aching return of con-
seriousness and the knowledge OF the

supporting her shoulders.
Weakly she tried to raise herself
to sitting position, but the pain made
her sink back again with groan.

owned the gray eyes spoke.

crowd parted, and spruce Young in

eyes to place Ethel in the cur. She
made a last effort.
Tell my father. w. Dorrance-

then the cool white walls Of the ambu-
lance warered queerly, and there was
confused buzzing In her ears. nnd
she sank down, down, through limit
less space till she reached place
where there was darkness and
silence and blessed relief from pain.
When she came to herself she was
lying In her room Mt home. Beside
the bed she made out two faces; one
Of n white-capped nurse, and the other
the anxious countenance of her father.
AS she opened her eyes she heard him
say, "Thank God' and felt him take

"Well, II was curious coincidence
Old man Morton, Of the big firm Of

"And did you return his handker-

But several months later, when the
engagement of Ethel Dorrnnce to the
rising young lawyer, John Harris, was
announced. and the newspapers hint.
ed at the romantic beginning of their
cOurtship, Ethel made a confession to
her father.
Daddy dear, he did ask for his
handkerchief, and l told him that
wanted to keep 1t to remember him by.
And daddy. now I can keep 1t always

And her father, remembering how
that scrap OF linen had stood between
his daughter and death, agreed that
1t was quite proper that it should re-

Accidents Will
Happen
By FREDERICK HART

When Ethel Dorrance opened her
eyes the first thing of which she be-
came conscious was pair of gray
eyes very close to her own, and a
handsome face OIL which anxiety and
relief struggled for mastery.
She was vaguely conscious that all
her body was one vast ache; that
when She tried TO move her right arm
II refused TO obey the behest Of her
VIII; and that something-her hat,
probably-was twisted around her
neck awkwardly and prodding with a
sharp wire into her shoulder.

Temperature Of Coal M;nee

The bureau of mines says that coal
mines are not warmer In winter and
colder In summer. The heat of the
earth Increases one degree for every
100 feet of depth. Coal mines are not
usually very deep and therefore not
affected to any great extent by the
heat Of the earth. The temperature
Of the mine depends upon the loca-

for road building, and that Arkansas
has built 5,1OO miles Of improved
highways in the last FIVE years and
has $500 additional miles nearing
completion. These roads have reduc-
ed the cost of transportation to the
farmers from 1916 cents for hauling
one ton one mile to market to less
than nine cents per ton mile, have
carried in their wake strong consoli-
dated schools and have practically
trebled property values. Kentucky
cannot afford to be in the lurch of
other great commemorative in this
forward movement for the interlac.
ing of our nation with permanent
highways. Nothing, in my judgment,
would boost property values in
Montgomery county more than the
provision of adequate funds for the
