ECHO OF THE WAR
A MODEI IV DRAMA. A moving litth drama is reported from the village of Kosd in Hungary. A farmer named Charles Keknos, who had been made prisoner by the Russians 21 years ago, returned unexpectedly to his home. His wife, thinking him dead, had married a second time and been widowed again. Nothing, therefore, stood in the way of their reunion except the fact that they had become complete strangers. It was with difficulty that they recognised ach other; and even after they had done so they were unable to communicate because the man had entirely forgotten his native tongue. That which might have been happiness unspeakable was thus turned into something very embarrassing. Long and painful as the healing of a broken limb will be the growing together again of this unfortunate couple.
