| gasping in the now almost intol-
cradle fumes, but holding to his
task until the secret was his.
From time to time he took a
mouthful of air from the reser-
voir inside the helmet.
The secret was his, and for a
round sum he would reveal it to
the hostile Power. And escape
would be easy-stay! Why should
he not himself remove the screw
from the mechanism and, SUBJ
merged, hurry the vessel across
the channel under water. The
thought was acted upon.
But the submarine refused to
rise. The fact was that a small
quantity of water had leaked in
through the inner door of the air
chamber and seeped into the
valves putting the gear out of
action.
Yet he was not alarmed. To don
his helmet and gain the refuge of
the air chamber, then to slide out
upon the Shiny bottom of the sea,
would be a trivial task. But sud-
denly the deadly chloride gases en-
veloped him. His brain reeled; he
raised his hands, but had not
strength enough to place the
heavy helmet on his head. Blindly
he stumbled along the slippery
bottom of the boat toward the air
chamber. Once there, in a mo-
ment he would be revived.
lettering, falling, he reached
the door of the air chamber. The
thought came to him that in his
weakened state he might not have
strength to open it. But the force
of the compressed air in the vessel
was lowered. 1t no longer held the
door, which had required the unit
ed force of five men previously.
Holding his helmet he stepped in
to the air chamber-or, rather, in
to a good sea of water that over
whelmed him and swept him into
the submarine. One moments
struggle, and he was lying upon
the floor, washed like a drowned
rat from side to side of the COM
partment. There the body was
found, weeks afterward, when
they raised the submarine.
When Norton stepped back into
the vessel he had forgotten that
the opening of the outer door had
admitted the sea to the air cham

Autumn suits are simple in cut
and design. Coats promise to be
hip length, the collars are cut low,
and skirts are plain and seant.
The hat is a soft gray felt,
broad of brim and low of crown.
The gray white and black shaded

fashions

Fancy hat pins are out of fash
ion. The plain nobs on gunmetal,
silver and gold are once more In
favor.
Pink is preferable to blue for
evening wear now. 1t is fashion
able in chiffon, crepe and liberty
silk.
The latest fad with women who
have good figures is to fasten the
belt in back instead of in front.
Quite fancy has sprung up for
tulle scarfs so wide as to almost
cover the figure. Evening dresses,
cut extremely low and entirely
sleeveless, are thus completed.
The tulle is usually in flesh-pink
tone.
Separate cotas are full length,
and three-quarter
fitting styles, and will be made of
smooth-faced fabrics.

some Of the designation houses, blacl
and white.
