To her came one day a letter from her only son. Ile was then at Camp Funston, Kansas, learning to be a soldier. The let- ter begged her to come and see hint before he w a a sent to France. The mother opened the tin Mrs. 'Davison bank in which rhe had been hoarding her dimes and quarters against this day. Tile money was scarcely enough. Nevertheless she started. She walked the first eighteeo aniles. Then her strength gave out, and she took a train. She did not know that visitors to Camp Irdpston stay In Junction City, eleven tellies Sway. So she got off the trate! at Fort Riley. An officer set her; fright and she reached Junc- tion 'City. after daik. Somehow she found a ,rooming -house.

The old lady had still one present worry. The boy's had cold might turn into pneumonia if she left him. But she had not money enough to stay • another night and buy a ticket home. When the matron told her that her bed was free. she brokp down and cried and cried. \I did not know there was so much pity left in the world,\ she sobbed. She stayed till her boy's cold was better.
