first, by Mrs. Randall. She played
nicely, too. Then Rose Preston sang
a solo; she has lovely voice.
Mrs. Semple was to play her cello
next. She seemed nervous at first, but
after she began to play she got over
1t. The cello made quite q hit among
the men, SO she played again. 1t
was that piece, Absent" that she
played, It's beautiful, but It's sad,
too. Everything was as quiet as a
tomb when she played. 1t was
enough to- bring tears to anyone's
eyes, the way she played 1t.
Right In the middle Of 1t, the door
opened ever SO quietly, and a young
man came In. He stood there for a
moment, listening. His face was as
white as q sheet, and his big, black
eyes were staring at Mrs. Semple as
If he saw q ghost. Just then Mrs.
Semple looked up from her cello. and
caught sight Of the boy-he wasn't
any more than that She stopped
playing as quickly as If she had been
suddenly changed into a wooden
figure, and her face got white, too,
and her big, black eyes stared back
at that boy.
"Dick" she whispered, with tears
in her voice.
"Motherl" said the boy, holding
out his arms and stumbling forward.
Then everyone began to talk at
once, and laugh, to hide their tears.
Mrs. Semple stopped the noise herself.
With her arm around the boy, she
told what 1t all meant. Tears
glistened on her cheeks, but her voice
was as happy as any mortal's could
ever be. 70
"Oh, everyoneI ! want you to
know how happy Dick and I are to-
night!" she began. Then she told
how her son had gone to sea on a
freight boat; there had been col
lision one Icy night, with many Of the
crew lost. Her son had been among
those who were missing. Then her
son took up the story. He was a
dark-haired boy, who looked just like
his mother. Big black eyes, fine
cut IedtureS, anu tne same low VOICE.
He had drifted for days in a life
boat. When he was picked up his
memory had died In that terrible ex-
perience, and since dead men tell no
tales, there was no one to identify the
lifeboat and its one living seaman.
In hope Of meeting someone who
knew him, or of going some place he
would recognize, he went tow-boating
That was the first time he had ever
been into Safety Harbor. He was on
his way to the news store to get a
newspaper when he had heard the
cello playing, and 1t somehow stirred
| up his memory.
When he heard that favorite piece
Of his, Absent his memory began
| to return, and he came into the Bethel,
| where he found his mother.
She said afterward that she never
had believed her son was dead, even
after she had looked for him every
where and never found him. That was
| why she wanted to be where she could
watch the ships come in. She said
she felt that he would come back to
| her.

CUT AIR FRICTION ON TRAINS
Railroads Reduce Coal Cost by the
Use Of Planes on Their
Locomotives.

For many years attempts have been
made to get rid Of part Of the resist
ance which railway train encounters
In rushing through the air, says the
Washington Star. 1t Is easy to un-
derstand that the pressure on the
front Of swiftly moving locomotive,
which equals the force of a strong
gale Of wind, can only be overcome
by an expenditure Of energy greater
than would otherwise be required to
run the train. If that pressure could
be removed, or considerably decreased,
less coal would have to be burned.
Experiments to diminish the pres
sure were begun many years ago, and
In some cases practical outcome has
been reached. One plan adopted is
very simple, and involves inclined
planes attached to the fore end of the
engine in such a way that instead Of
a square front 1t presents to the air
sharp PROV, like that of ship.
1t might be thought that little would
be gained In this way, but repeated
trials have shown that in some cases
as much as 10 or II per cent can thus
be saved In the consumption of coal,
and the average saving amounts to
about per cent.
This Is so important an item that q
| large number Of locomotives on one
system have been fitted with the de-
vice.
When the wind is blowing directly
| In the face of the engine the resist
ance to be overcome Is Of course,
much increased, and the value Of a
prow-shaped front is proportionately
greater.
In some Of the experiments 1t was
shown that by the combined effects OF
placing inclined planes in front and
filling up the spaces between the
spokes Of the wheels. one-half OF the
air resistance could be done away
with.

HIS year of 1923 Is the centennial Of
the Monroe Doctrine. And Carlotta
Of Mexico is reported dying in her
old chateau of Bouchout in Brabant,
Belgium, at the age Of eighty-four,

Therefore the story Of the attempt Of
Napoleon III TO establish French
empire In Mexico in defiance of the
Monroe Doctrine makes timely read
ing.
Benito Pablo Juarez, an Indian,
was elected president Of Mexico In
