around the bottom. The fine white silk

Military Salute.

You've undoubtedly noticed during a
military review the officers salute
while passing the reviewing stand by
bringing the hilts of their swords to
their faces. 1t is custom which dates
back to the time of the Crusaders.
When the Crusaders were on the
march to the Holy City, the knights
were in the daily habit of planting
their long, two-handled swords upright
in the ground, thereby forming a
cross, and before this they performed
their morning devotions. On all mill,
tary occasions they kissed the hilts
of their swords in token of devotion to
the cross. The method Of saluting by
bringing the hand to horizontal DO
sition over the eyebrows dates back
to the tournaments of the middle ages.
when after the Queen of Beauty was
enthroned, the knights. who were to
take the part in the sports of the day,
marched past the dias ON which she
sat, and as they passed, shielded their
eyes from the rays of her beauty by
placing their hands horizontally to
their foreheads.

Ten years later Mary Taussig and
her daughter entered the Auditorium
one Friday afternoon for the pleasure
of listening to a concert by the Chi
cago orchestra. Mary Taussig walked
with the independent step of one who
is in the habit of walking alone. There
was clear and sad light in her gray
eyes. Her brow had grown loftier
than it had been in the days of her
youth. Dignity and patience and kind
illness spoke in her every feature. AS

About her young daughter there ap-

thing suggestive Of more definite re-

disregard of beauty. which the young
can afford to assume. the girl had cos
tuned herself in black. Black plumes
shaded her face; her little chin was
hidden in her somber furs, and the
delicate hand, with which she pressed
down her theater chair vas gloyed in
black.
This slender hand caught the casual
glance Of the gentleman occupying the
next seat, and he followed 1t with his
eyes till it rested on the owners lap.
Still its fragile contour held him, as il
it awakened memories. and he sat
