she had to. find other means OF live
lihood.
or her spying methods one must
say nothing, but an idea of her abil-
ity In that line may be imagined
when it is known that she knew sew
eral languages SO well as to be able
to speak them Automatically without
hesitation and could pass herself as
of any one of half a dozen national
tiles without fear of detection. One
day at the Guimet museum. before =,
specially selected audience, she held
forth in five languages, chaging from
one to the other without the slight
est hitch. She was a born spy.
When she was awakened the
morning of October Is, 1917. for her
last time, II was a changed woman
that arose from the miserable pallet.
She little resembled the "Mata HaI"
OF the happy dancing days. Her hair
was gray and her face deeply wrink-
led. She sighed deeply and several
times she passed her hand across
her forehead as II it felt too heavy.
Then. all at once. there was a trans
fguration. She twisted her face INTO
81 smile that did not leave. it while
she was on earth. Nimbly arising.
the fallen queen dressed herself in
the gown she was wearing at the time
of her arrest, carefully put on her
large hat. arranged her long veil
and put on n pair of silk gloves. She
did not walk. she trippcd along. She
danced down the wormcaten old
stairway of Saint LaZarc two steps at
n time. The guards could hardly
keep up with her. In the courtyard
Il motor car, brightly lighted. but
with shades drawn awaited her.
At Nincennes, with death close at
hand, she was a study. Svclte and
affected. she alighted from the motor
car while the escort of Iragoons sat
their mounts with drawn sahcrs. The
field was Sodden after Il hcay rain
and the cars that had preceded hers
had cut It into ruts and puddlcs.
"Mata Hari' hoped lightly across
the muddy places. her feet barely
touching the ground. and almost ran
to the cXection post. While she was
being bound she waved farewell to
the priest. to the commandant of
Saint LaZare and TO her lawyer.
