AS we were about to leave The pool
and enter the corridors an officer called
my attention to the waters upon which
the submarine f1oated. At first they
seemed to be merely agitated as from
the movement of some great Sody be
meath the surface, and / ut once con
jectured that another submarine was
rising to the surface in pursuit of us.
But presently 1t became apparent that
the level of the waters was rising not
with extreme rapidity, but very surely,
and that soon they would overflow the
sides of the pool and submerge the
floor of the chamber.
For a moment I did not fully grasp
the terrible import Of the slowly rising
waters. 1t was Carthoris who real
lied the full meaning of the thing-its
cause and the reason for it.
"Hastew he cried. "If we delay we
all are lost. The pumps Of OmeaI
have been stopped. They would drown
us like rats in trap. We must reach
the upper levels Of the pits in advance
Of the flood or we shall never reach
them. Come"
Lead the way, Carthoris," cried.
I'VE shall follow"
At my command the youth leaped
into one OF the corridors, and in col
umns of twos, and in good order, the
soldiers followed him, each company
entering the corridor only at the COM
mand Of its dwar, or captain.
l was the last to leave the chamber
Of the submarine, and as followed
the rear of the column toward the cor
rldor 1 moved through water to my
knees.
The corridor, too, was flooded to the
same depth, for its floor was on level
with the floor of the chamber from
which it led, nor was there any per-
ceptible rise for many yards.
The march of the troops through
the corridor was as rapid as was con-
sistent with the number of men that
moved through SO narrow a passage,
but it was not ample to permit us to
gain appreciably on the pursuing tide.
Long ere the last of the column could
hope to reach the upper pits which lay
above the danger point, was con-
vinced that the waters would surge
after us in overwhelming volume and
that fully half the expedition would
be snuffed out.
AS cast about for some means of
saving as many as possible of the
doomed men / saw a diverging corri-
dor which seemed to rise at a steep
angle at my right.
Raising my voice to it's utmost,
shouted my commands to the dwars
ahead of me.
"Call back the last twenty-five
utans," shouted. "Here seems a way
OF escape. Turn back and follow me-"

RIGHT AND WRONG
WAY TO PROCEED
Playing the Game Calls For
Honorable Tactics to
Succeed
BY Beatrice Fairfax.

"That isn't cricket" says the Eng
lishman. 1T isn't done," says our
society leader. "Das thut man
nicht," says the German. Every ma
ton, every walk of life has it's own
idiomatic expression for the fact that
there are things it isn't fair to do.
To most of us there comes at some
stage of the game or life a chance to
get ahead-but get ahead not quite
honorably.
The principle involved may be so
slight a deviation from the right and
be able to accuse us of dishonesty.
But we shall know. Down in our
hearts we will have the unpleasant
consciousness that we didn't play the
game honorably and ION the level"
To the fine-fibred man or woman,
victory without honor means defeat.
It's all very well for a cynical world
to point to successful men who achieve
fame and fortune without paying too
much attention to the ethical value of
things.
None of us knows exactly how un-
happy man is when he has to face
his own inner conviction of dishon-
esty. But even without going as far
as dishonesty there is another thing
to face-the consciousness of not be-
ing n good sport"
There are all sorts of situations in
the summer in which people find
themselves tempted 10 play the game,
merely to win. A desire for victory
is not sporting" Neither victory nor
defeat must mean 100 much to the
real sportsman. The point is-play-
ing the game.
There lies the instinct of a real
sportsman. He plays the game. He
doesn't resort to artifices, to little
tricks to schemes to achieve the VIC
tory at any cost. He plays with re-
spect for his own manhood and cour-
teous difference for his opponent
The rules of any sport are based
on courtesy and consideration for ones
opponent. You don't win a swimming
race by dealing your opponent a kick
under water and so putting him out of
the running. You don't win any race
that way. Neither sports nor life are
played out on a basis of trickery or
dishonor by anyone who is decent
and fine.
Besides all that cheater misses
most of the fun-the joy of honest
striving-the glow of victory gained
fairly and squarely.
The game must be played accord
ing to rule-but still more superbly
than that by anyone who wants real
pleasure from playing it. It is almost
better to give your opponent a victory
than to snatch 1t from him by a con-
temptible little underhand trick.
Play your games fairly and squarely
this summer. See how much more fun
you get out of them that way. And
then try playing your whole game of
life that way.

TOHNNY reached for his pistol,
but before his hand was fairly

~ the muZZle of small revolver

Fashions of To-Day BY May Manton

TUST such simple morning jacket
as this one is sure to be needed. 1t
a" is comfortable to slip on in ones
own room, while the letters are being
read or the coffee is being slipped. If
there is a skirt to match, it becomes
a morning dress that is practical and
1t is very simple and
very easy to make, with tuck in each
front over the shoulder to provide
pretty fullness. The fullness is held by
the belt. The petticoat shown here is
very new one in three pieces and the
three-picce petticoat is always favorite.
You can finish it with a straight gathered
founce or with circular hounce.
For the medium size the jacket will
require, as yards of material SO inches
wide, 2H yards A. with IS yard SO
inches wide for the trimming. For the
pctticoat will be needed, AS yards SO,
215 yards A with 8 yards of embroidery
IS inches wide for the gathered founce,
2ss yards of material SO, Iss yards "A
for the circular founce.
The pattern OF the jacket No. 1904 is
cut in sizes from SO to 90 inches bust
measure and of the petticoat No. e2s6 in
sizes from "a to SO inches waist measure.
They will be mailed to any address by the
Fashion Department of this paper, on
receipt of ten cents for the jacket and
Is cents for the petticoat.

Mr.. Joseph Hane, 356 Apple ST., is
the father of this handsome young
ster. Last winter, when the Southern
remedy, Vick's VapoRub Salve, was
being introduced in Pottstown, Drug
g1st Chas. S. Bentz presented Mr..
Hane with jar, and asked that he
give it a thorough trial and report
the results. Mr.. Hane writes
"My little boy took sick one night
very suddenly with heavy cold,
so we applied your salve on his
chest and saved ourselves going for
the doctor. The next day we could
scarcely tell he had a cold"
1t is a fact that most colds are re-
lieved in one night, and Group usually.
in fifteen minutes just by applying
VapoRub over throat and chest and
covering with warm flannel cloth.
This preparation works in two ways
first it is absorbed through and stimu-
lates the skin taking out the tight
ness and soreness, and then the heat
of the body liberates the ingredients
which are inhaled in the form OF va
pors. These vapors open the air pas
s<A sages and loosen the phlegm.
