Berlin, December 1.-THE latest
craze of Berlin society women ia to
have their portraits painted while
asleep. The Countess Czivek, an AUS
.rlan, originated the idea, she having
commissioned an eminent artist to
paint her portrait. The painter kept
her waiting for the sitting, and the
countess at last fell asleep in an ante
room.
Meantime the artist arrived, and
seeing tho Sleeping Beauty" made a
hasty sketch OF her. When the coun-
less awoke. he showed her how she
looked asleep. The drawing was SO
attractive that the sitter insisted on
having a real portrait In oils painted,
while she pretended to sleep.
Now the idea has spread among Ger
man society women. who have the
painters make their pictures while
they lie in drowsy attitudes; some
really taking beauty sleep. This
method saves time. besides 1t is the
last fad.

save their lives in the home stretch,

the straiping submarine drew them
down by link or two of the chain;

and the girl leaped to the levers in
obedience to the voice of Carson telling
her to make haste. for Gods sake, and
set the wings for forward fight, to
cut the speed down one-third and to
steer straight for shore.
She obeyed. They had risen to a
height of perhaps 200 feet before her
inexperienced hands could change the
propellers, and Carson told her to keep
the height She asked If she might

"Can you come up?" she asked.

She asked this two or three times
and got no reply. Suddenly she
screamed with the fear that he had

por he asked her to advance the spark
a little and when she had done so to
retard it again.
"Are you in danger?" she asked
"Can you hang on?"
"I'm all right" said he, "only my
hands. Can you see shore? Is it far?''
The shore was rising fast, she told
him. 1t was not so very far now, but
the gas was almost gone. Could she do
anything? Was there nothing to be
done to exc it out so as to bring them
little closer before they fell into the
sea? Could he do anything if he were
in the car?

The dunes lifted white in the sun,
shimmering in the heat. swelling as
the Virginia darted nearer and nearer
to shore. The horror stricken people
on the beach saw her coming, like an
albatross before a gale. The girl on
