With a view of testing his purpose, 1 tapped sharply on the glass, and held | my breath while I did so. Would he| heed my signal or would he increase his speed? T breathed a trifie more freely when he slackened pace, slipped the glass and held his bead in a listening posture. I fought the impulse to| spring from the now slowly-moving taxi Instead I spoke prr»mploru,\..

Then, with a wary eye | upon his back, I delved into my bag | for something without which 1 never have traveled since the hectic d | when I aided Lillian in her secret service work. It is the tiny revolver | which she gave me at that time, :«ml‘f in whose use she instructed me. “Porter, Ma'am?” To Lillian's amusement, however, I| never carry it loaded, although I al- | ways have a small box of cartridges for it. T knew that I could not load it, nor did 1 wish to, but I counted | upon surprising the driver with its| menace if he presumed to alter thq-; course 1 had laid out. | J felt foolish and melodramatic in-| derd when he swung the taxi into the| causeway leading to the Long Isalnd entrance. With a swift- movement 1| pushed the little revolver into my hag| again, closed it and took from my purse the sum of money which H‘mj meter registered, added a liberal tip and had it ready in my hand when lic| opened the door. “Porter, ma'am?” One of the col- ored men at the entrance put out a| hand toward my bag, and I surren-| dered it to him. 1t was not particularly heavy, bhut the reaction from my foolish terror| had left my knees with a distinet propensity to buckle beneath me, and| 1 was glad indeed to walk unencum- bered to the ticket office. Ashamed as I was of my unfound- ed fears, I yet retained enough of my suspicion of the taxi driver to turn my head quickly toward him nas I} started down thé stairs, He was lean- | {ng from his taxi seat, regardless of a| tooting impatient horn just behind| him, and speaking with an air of warnestness to one of the colored por- ters. He did not see me, and T hur fled on down the steps with & f"”o premonition of the thing which Tap- pened a moment later. We hardly had reached the font o the stairs before a cantious call sound- ed behind us.

BERLIN'S BEST DRESSERS HAVE AMERICAN PASHIONS Clean-Shaved Faces Are the Rule, Ever “Kaiser's Moustache” Giving Way to Germany's New Fad. Berlin, Feb. 23,—What is known as the “American sport face” is all the rage these days among the young men of Berlin. As a consequence of the fad, whiskers and even the “kals- er moustache,” so popular prior to the war, has been pushed off the beards. Many young Germans wear a kind of natty *“Charley Chaplin” adorn- ment upon their uppel lip, and this is known as American too, but the majority of the fashionably dressed young men jin the strects and cafes are smooth shaven. Many of them, so the barbers say, shave the first thing in the morning and again late in the day, before starting out for the evening. Among the workingmen and cer- tain old timers still in the army or government service, modified “kais- er's moustache” continues to be worn. There was a time here when nearly all of the old rank officers wore upright moustaches with care- fully waxed ends which reached nearly to their eyes. But the mous- tache of the militaristic points, in which the individual took marvelous pride, is entirely out of date, Whiskers, generally speaking, are unpopular excepting in old-fashioned circles where some of the aged men continue to wear beards, sip beer daily in their favorite - haunts of many years, and smoke the long- stemmed “Dutchman's’ pipe which years ago was all the go among Ger- mans in the United States.

Herself Berkeley, Cal., Feb, ~=Armiess since birth, Martha Hale, freshman at the University of California here, has taught herself not only to do with her feet practically everything that the physically normal girl, of 21 can do with her hands, including cooking, writing, sewing and dress- ing herself, but intends to teach oth- ers who are crippled to help them- selves, JPor this purpose, she is tak- ing a spectal course in social service. All her life Miss Hale's attitude has been one of optimism and self- reliance, A slender wisp of a girl, she has never learned the meaning of “can't” She is an excellent stu- dent, paints china, embroiders, and “loves to swim and dance.,” Among her schooimates she has long since been accepted as “one of the crowd.” During the war Miss Hale visited many government hospitals where maimed soldiers were fighting their way back to an arml life, “Once [ could convinc§ them,” she said, “that feet could-be guit§ as use- ful as hands, they began to take in- terest, to feel that the world was not really going to end for thém."
