man. as he rose TO his feet, his clothing
torn and soiled. his face slightly cut and
bruised, but otherwise uninjured. Miss

TO remove him 20 a hospital. but he de-
clined with thanks, saying his injuries
were trivial

calls. Expert in the handling Of auto
mobiles. daring but careful in driving,
Miss Meyer has the reputation OF being
one OF the foremost automobilists OF the

his bicycle before the automobile. Miss

ishing It.
Miss Meyer was slightly unnerved by
the accident, but drove homo without as
sistance.
