Trying to Do Their BIZ.

While nearly every woman is trying
to do her bit in some way, there are at
least a hundred thousand other fair
ones who believe they can serve their
country by breaking into the movies,
notes New York critic. That is why
every motion-picture Office is crowded
with applicants and why motion-pic.
ture managers are busy men these days
of frantic filmdom. It requires much
patience, nerve and sometimes q set
of burglars tools to enable would-be
actress to reach a manager, however,
but an overdressed woman of rather
ripe years gushed her way past the
array Of Office boys and clerks into
the sanctum of the man who hires and

She told me later that lay there
motionless for two hours. SO still, so
softly breathing, as to almost brighten
her. Twice she leaned close to assure
herself that did actually breathe. and
her fingers felt for the beat of pulse at
my wrist. 1t was the coma of sheer ex-
haustion. The bull-like roar of
startled voice forward awoke me. I
caught no word, only the sound, but
there was q note to it like the violence
Of blow. I sat up, staring about, the
entire scene within the range of vision

the plunge, the icy grip of the water,
the glow of the flames above me re-
vealed the small boat. Dashing the
moisture from my eyes, conscious only
of the pleading in her extended arms,

ship burst into thousand fragments,

mighty gun, and shooting upward in a
volcano of flame. l went downtown

depths was Inconsistencies. I awoke
with Vera's eyes smiling into mine, her
face bent above me. the golden sun
light of new dawn resting on her
hair. I could but stare up ut her, un-
able to comprehend, half believing 1t
all vision to as quickly dissolve into
mist. Yet was rational, my brain
swiftly clearing to the truth. The hand
which held mine was Of flesh and
blood; those were no dream eyes smil-
ing their welcome, and was lying in
q boat, bobbing up and down to the
surface of the sea. Words came to my
lips, whispered question:
"You-you picked me up? we are
still ut sea-"
Eyes, dear; oh! I am so glad! Lie
still, you are not strong enough to sit
up yet"
ooh, yes I am y; see, I will lean against

A Death Shin.

It was Gods miracle that we lived
and kept afloat; that we were not
sucked under. or crushed into drift
wood. To this day know not what
occurred, or how we held upright.
There was crash. crunching sound,
a mad plunging of the tortured boat
under us. Ny hands gripped vainly Mt

denly the wild race ended with Jerk,

yelled wildly:

I was on my feet now. understand

boat must be sinking under us. also

of us held on desperately, Red hauling
the single rope end taut, and looping it
about the thwart.
