France, as Madame well knows, believes in fairies and values so highly the romance of life. For you, how fortunate, Dames Américaines.

For, without their imaginations féeriques, how could those French parfumeurs create so deli- cate, so haunting an odeur as they send to you in Toilet Water Djer-Kiss and Djer- Kiss Vegetale?

Their odeur is the fragrance of Parfum Djer-Kiss itself. Use them in these many delightful ways.

DJER-KISS TOILET WATER: How ex- quisite a fragrance it lends to the bath of Madame. How refreshing for the hands after any household tasks—Quelle Fraicheur! Etes-vous fatiguée? “Is Mademoiselle tired?” Sprinkle then a few drops on the moistened

cloth and bathe the face and arms— Voila!

DJER-KISS VEGETALE: Use, Mademoiselle, the milder Vegetale as a lotion for the skin. Notice, s'il vous plait, how it refreshes. To cleanse the face sprinkie a few drops on a cloth wrung from warm water. For the hair —c’est charmant.: And also for Monsieur after shaving—so soothing and so cooling.

If, Madame, by chance you do not already know these French toiletries, do take advan- tage of the sample offer which follows. And we beg of you that you do it today. To use Dier- Kiss Eau de toilette and Djer-Kiss Végétale

once is to use them always.

Special Sample Offer: Send 15¢ to the Alfred H. Smith Co., 48 W. 34th

Street, New York, and receive generous samples of | Toilet Water and Vegetale.

Cosmopolitan for September,

Where Shall I Send My Child?

HE schools will soon reopen. Delay is

dangerous. The school you finally se-

lect may then be full. In Cosmopolitan the advantages of the best are set forth. Further information can be had by writing to the schools for catalogs.

There are conscientious parents who still hesitate. They feel responsibility to the pub- lic school, to which of course all look to raise the average intelligence.

But after all a parent has to choose for his own the best, no matter whether public or private. Not by choice does any child come into the world, or choose its parents. The least that we can do in consequence is to give our offspring the best training for life which our pocketbook allows.

My Girl

IRLS’ schools are easier to classify than boys’. Those that prepare for college have their course of study set for them. The finishing school is rapidly expanding to meet the needs of girls who may not go to college and yet must go into the larger field now opening for women. Each school keeps an eye on life. Schools distinctly religious usu- ally lead their girls along a higher path than the average public school can take. For girls as well as boys the Junior College has made for itself a place unquestioned in the college world. The secretarial and musical, the do- mestic science and the training schools for

nurses speak clearly for themselves.

My Boy

REAL boy is democratic, and yet he

must have individual as well as mass instruction. The wise parent hears the call ever growing louder for leadership. If ever any adolescent material lying around loose appears available for the making of a presi- dent or two, the normal parent will be apt to do his duty.

The private school has long been going. Never was it stronger than it is today. Per- haps the boy who goes to a good private - school indirectly helps the public school along by relieving somewhat the congestion which the President of the New York School Board evidently had in mind when

he recently remarked, “the great object we have in view is to provide a seat in school for everyone.” The record of the private school in fitting boys for college is an open book. Where classes are small teaching can be effective. Democracy naturally develops where boys mingle from all classes and all sections. The wholesome private school be- comes in fact a makeweight for democratic leadership.

Certain types of private schools are gain- ing steadily in public confidence. The head of a military school who described it not so much as a preparation for a career in the army as a qualification for a commission as citizen cleared up a situation murky in the minds of some. The Church school cer- tainly is making good. When J. G. Cogswell a century ago, on Round Hill in Northamp- ton, established a school to prove that the religious and the secular belong together, he lighted a fire from which A. Toomer Porter, Henry A. Coit, and John Meigs, in years that followed, passed on to worthy hands to- day a burning torch which never can go out.

NLY out of boys have we the stuff to

make the men who can lead men. Pro- vided he understands his boy, no parent ever errs who places him in the best church school, the best military school, the best life training school, the best preparatory school. “The best is good enough for me,” vowed the Connecticut Yankee. In the name of the child committed to his keeping no parent dares to take a vow less solemn, or less earn- estly endeavors to make the same come true. With warnings unmistakable that unless democracy is led aright civilization itself may stop, no true parent will let a passion even for a motor car—and its upkeep— stand between bone of his bone, flesh of his flesh, and the proper education of his chil- dren.

The time may come when, as Lothrop Stoddard says, “Society will insure its own regeneration.” Till then, the thoughtful par- ent takes no risk, and with the child he loves makes no experiments. According to financial ability, he provides such training as is best for his children and at the same time contributes to the regeneration and perpet- uation of the race.

Cosmopolitan for September, 1922

Are You Business Coward ?

—and—does it show in your pay-check?

"You've Aad your chance!"’ It was the General Manager speaking... .

“_Two years ago | warned you that the only man who could hcp< to get ahead in this organization was the man with training.

“Merwin was only a bookkeeperthen, ou remember, but in his spare time he wasstudying Higher Accounting. / knew what he was doing, and I told you then to keep your eye on Merwin.

“_He’s had three raises since you and {had that little talk together. e has more than doubled his salary—and ne eams every dollar I pay him.

“_Last week I recommended him for the office of Assistant Treasurer, and at the Board Meeting he was elected with- out a dissenting vote. I tell you we're mighty glad to have him in the group.

Bat you, Jarvis—I hate to say it— you're a business coward. You knew what you would have to do to get out of the small-pay class. You were simply afraid to face the kind of effort and re- sponsibility that could get you a substan- tial salary.

“And now it’s too late. We've got to cut our overhead, and you’re one of about three hundred men that we can get along without. We could replace the lot of you tomorrow, ;

“For your own sake, Jarvis, take a tip fom a man who has been thru the nill, and ¢#zs time get busy and learn to do something better than the other fellow.

“Our traffic manager, I don’t mind telling you, is drawing better than $100 aweek, Zhere's a good field for an ambitious man—and it’s growing.

“Then there’ s expert correspondence. If we could get a man who could create powerful and convincing sales letters and could train our ys to write that kind ofletters, he’d be cheap at $5,000 a year. We'd pay him that right off the bat.

“—Jarvis, there’s 20 end of opportunity for the young man in business; but the only man who cashes in these days is the man with the courage to get special train- ing. The offices of this country are sim-

Ply cluttered up with business cowards.

It’s easy for the man who /rains — because the business coward is thru before he starts.’’

*

Are YOU one of several million routine men in the United States who have been drifting along in a “‘low-pay’’ job, week after week, month after month— alwavs

wishing for more money, never acting? Are YOU a busi- ness coward? Over 350,000 ambi- tious men have asked themselves this question during the past twelve years—and replied with a ringing “NO!"’ In the quiet of their own homes, without losing ny Soa from work or a dollar of pay, these men have mastered the f7in- ciples of business by working out the actual problems of business—under the direction of some of the ablest business men, in their respective fields, in America. Their record of achievement, under the ‘‘LaSalle Problem Method,”’ is one of the most thrilling chap- ters in the romance of American business. During 3 months’ time, for example, 1,089 LaSalle members reported salary increases resulting from training under the LaSalle Problem Method totaling $889,713, an average increase per man of 56 per cent. These men were able to progress more rapidly by means of the LaSalle ‘‘Problem Method’’ than they could have done in any

Furthermore, they have profited from the privilege —extended to all LaSalle members—of consulting freely with any of its highly specialized departments, thereby availing themselves of authoritative informa- tion and expert counsel covering the entire range of modern business practice. This privilege is of prac- tical and invaluable assistance toa man in entering upon a position of larger responsibilities. It gives the LaSalle member an advantage not to be had from any other institution.

Whatever attitude you may have taken in the past ~and you may, indeed, have never realized that the difference betwcen the man who “‘puts it off” and the man who | an itover”’ is in the last analysis largely a matter of courage—show your determination to

F BEN ALI CRISP, of The Daily Star, better known among enemies as Old Ben Alibi, had not been about the smartest city editor on the hemisphere he would have made a great detective. Probably it isn’t going too far to say he might have made the great detective of his generation; one whose name vould live on afterwards, bracketed with the names of McPart- hind and Pinkerton, Byrnes and Burns, and whose work, by lovers. of the comparative, would have been likened to the a achievements of Sherlock Holmes and Hawkshaw and er.

Those in place to know the facts conceded to him an in- dubitable genius in this direction. Police Commissioner Dudley did, for one. District Attorney Salmon did, for another. mc neither Salmon nor Dudley liked a hair in Crisp’s head. lowever, this prejudice of theirs in no wise distinguished them i persons holding to a unique view. Of those who did not Ke a hair in that grizzled head there was, as you might say, a for every hair.

Just to think, said the landlady—all this time Mr. Tappan had been plotting to kill up somebody!

For instance, mark that time away back yonder when Crisp had been star man on the old Intel- ligencer. The Intelligencer has been a memory and a shelf-load of mildewed files these twenty-

‘odd years, but the recollection of Crisp’s work on the Starbuck

kidnaping abides as a green spot in the minds of many unofficial historians.

At one o’clock one morning he limped into the Intelligencer shop with a bundle on bis arm and a crumple of scribbled sheets of scratch pad in his hand. He was streaked with coal soot and smeary with brick dust and one wrist dripped blood where broken glass had nicked it.. Tradition records how he traveled the length of the city room till he came to the far end where old Walrus Clarkson sat on the night desk getting ready to put the late mail edition to bed. He halted and Clarkson looked up at him from under his green eye-shade, and there befell a little pause while all others present stared at the pair of them. Crisp loved the dramatic and the spectacular; all good newspaper men do. He prolonged the stage wait, noticeably. Then:

“Boss,” he said, “here’s the story of the missing Starbuck baby.”

And laid down his scrambled wad of copy in front of Clarkson.

‘And here’s the Starbuck baby.”

And put the bundle down on the desk alongside the copy.

Then there was the time he proved that the Prospect Heights murder over in Brooklyn was no murder at all, but a suicide devised to seem a murder; proved it with the help of a fox terrier and on the testimony of the said fox terrier. And the time when he set out, with nothing better to start off on than a strip of red

oilcloth and an overcoat button, and after six weeks of single, handed delving dug up the evidence which sent a dishwasher .

to the chair and a midwife to prison for life; that was the

Ben A l b l | we 4

Garfunkel trunk mystery, so called. There was the famous Rossiter case up in Westchester. Unraveling it was perhaps Crisp’s greatest coup of all and the tale of it makes a tale which should be told, but not now. And there was the time he rigged the trap for Tappan, the cracked dynamiter who tried to blow Fergus Hite into small, untidy particles—and came almighty near succeeding, too. It is with this last named matter that we deal here. It is chosen chiefly for the reason that it came to pass after Wendover had founded the Daily Star and had lured Crisp in from the outside to be its city editor.

The Fergus Hite story started off with a bang—literally. It was one of those infrequent bangs which are heard round the world.

As may be recalled, old Mr. Hite, at the time of the attempt upon his life, was Wall Street’s outstanding figure as an independent operator. On the Stock Exchange and in the newspaper offices they called him Cheese-Paring Fergy. In sundry other places they called him by much worse names than that—miser, for example, and bloodsucker and oppressor of the poor. From pinched bellies spring bitter words and the old man’s wheat corner, whereby the price of a loaf of bread had been boosted from five cents to nine, was a recent and a grievous

Old Fergus had had a shaving close call from a violent and most distressing

memory in the public mind. Now then, encouraged by the success of that manipulation, he was reputed to be organizing a second com- bine with intent to control the milk supply of Manhattan Island.

Wherefore he figured scandalously on front pages and in editorial columns and the paragraphers sped barbed and libelous darts into his epidermis. Mighty little he cared for that! So long as the cash rolled in it was all one to old Fergus. But this publicity, this gush of printer’s ink, served a purpose which cali very near being his mortal undoing. Before anyone who cou read fair print, it set up a picture of his personality, his habits, the way he lived, the way he ran his office.

For example, the papers had told, not once but often, how he never threw away anything which by a stretching of the most frugal imagination might be regarded as having the slightest possible value; how he saved strings and twine and waste pap™ and old cigar boxes and empty medicine vials and stray corks and pins and all. They had described how he never trust anyone to open and read his private mail but opened it himself and, if there were letters of importance, perso the answered them, with his long, shriveled fingers pecking out! words on the keys of a rattletrap of a second-hand typewntet

edand it took time to bring him round.

which he had picked up somewhere at a rare bargain price; and then, according to some mysterious filing system of his own, stored the correspondence away in lock-up wooden packing cases. So much for that; it is told because it has a bearing. One morning in the spring of the year old Fergus sat over his mail in the inner room of the dingy two room suite he occupied on the ‘op floor of the Hite Building in Broad Street, four doors off Wall. He might have had his choice of any of the floors of the Hlite Building. He owned it. But he chose to rent out its choicer parts. Snug quarters up under the roof suited him. He was an early riser. He was at his desk at an hour when most Wall Street men were chipping the breakfast egg. It was tight-forty-five, about, when his man, Darrow, came in to tell was wanted on the telephone by Mrs. Hite. He had no telephone; that would be an expensive and utterly unneces- sity luxury, seeing there was a perfectly dependable wall phone in the front room. : Darrow was another of his pet economies. In ‘almost any other baa office Darrow would have been what is called a con- ential clerk or a managing clerk. But Mr. Hite, you see, never gave his confidences to anyone; and as for managing the more

intimate affairs of his business,

he attended to all that himself.

Darrow was a sort of clerical

man of all work, a middle-aged

= chore boy, obedient but ull.

As the old man got up from where he sat, he tapped with his fingers a package which lay upon his desk. It was an oblong package, rectangular in shape, measuring about twelve inches the long way and per- haps five inches across. It looked as though it might con- tain a box or a carton. It was wrapped and double wrapped in heavy manila paper. Mr. Hite already had removed the outer wrapping and at the moment of Darrow’s intrusion was engaged in trying to free the stout string which bound the inner layer of paper. After- wards, with that faculty of his for minute detail, he was able to state that one end of this cord was fast under a turned-in fold of the paper as though, by chance, the sender had let it twist inside the parcel proper and then, unwittingly, had fitted the top on it. ;

“Here, Darrow,” he said, “finish undoing this package. I'll be back in a minute.”

‘He had no need to warn Darrow not to cut the cord and not to tear thé paper and,

above all, not to open the enclosure itself when he had released it from its wrappings. Darrow had been with Hite a long time;_his sense of curiosity was schooled to an ordered restraint, which was one reason why he held his job—that, coupled with the still better reason that he worked for small pay. In suffering him to handle any mail-at all his employer departed from. an established rule. Darrow might safely be trusted not to tamper with office precedents on an inde-. pendent account.

Hite went out of: the room closing the door behind him. Darrow, presumably, took the partly undone parcel in his

; hands and, finding the string binding already somewhat loosened, cast it off and then gave a sharp tug at the imprisoned length, caught under the sliding wooden lid. This is what must have happened. Experts from Headquarters subsequently were able to reconstruct the action substantially as it must have occurred.

At eight-forty-seven, or thereabouts, came an explosion which shook the Hite Building from its gables to its basement. Simul- taneously smoke gushed through the shattered sashes of a top floor window siding upon a narrow court toward Wall Street. Those in the building felt the jar of the shock; persons passing along the sidewalk, including a patrolman, heard the crash and some of them saw the sudden pouring of yellowish smoke from the blown-out window frame. It was the patrolman who led the hunt for the source and cause of the explosion. “le ran up the stair flights, floor by floor, with a constantly jrowing queue of startled civilians tailing at his heels, until he came to the top story.

Wisps of smoke of a most curious and unwholesome smell crept through the jambs of a door which bore on a lettered tin sign, “F. Hite, Investments.” ‘There was no sound of life within, nor any answer to the policeman’s knock. He, thewat

open the door and entered, coughing because of the smoke and the strange reck, and the more hardy among those at his back came scrooging in behind him. Mr. Hite, unhurt but in a dumb palsy of fear, was face downward on the floor. Power of speech did not return to him for some minutes thereafter; he was con- scious, though. He pointed a lean finger that quivered toward the inner room, making little choked whimpering noises down in his throat. :

In there, where the unsavory fumes were thicker, they found Darrow against a side wall, with both arms blown off at the elbows and his chest all caved in. His face was a blur of muti- lation; he must have died instantly. The desk was wrecked, its flat top ripped to bits and its sides sprung. Strangely enough, the rest of the meager fittings had suffered no serious hurt. Burst window panes and scars in the wall where flying metal scrappage had struck—these about finished out the tally of damage.

Now, ninety-nine times out of a hundred, the police investiga- tion into this tragedy would have assumed at the outset a two- way angle. Lieutenant Hughey Fay, the Headquarters special- ist in explosives, would have set about gathering up the fragments of tie devilish thing that had killed Darrow and rebuilding them into a semblance of their original shape with a view, if possible, to identifying the device as the characteristic handicraft of some particular anarchist or group of anarchists. And while te was doing this the’ Detective Bureau would be seining the back eddies of the island; West Side, East Side and Litile Italy, uptown, for all avowed or suspect advocates of the theory of achieving economic reforms by force. ‘Drag Net Out for Hite B’ldg Dynamite Assassin”—this probably would have been Ben Ali’s choice for his seven column top line; or possibly it might have been “Round-up of Red Radicals Follows Broad St. Bomb Outrage.” He loved the alliteration in a scream head.

But this was the hundredth case, and for once the police found their work simplified; that is to say, their work, on the face of it, seemed simple enough at the outset. Instead of routing out and chasing down.a whole shoal of the known enemies of capital- istic society and then, by the crudely effective methods of the third degree, endeavoring to fix color of presumptive guilt upon this man or that woman, they had merely to find one given person. When they found him they could take their ease: the rest of it would be a job for the District Attorney’s office. Before Darrow’s body was stiff they knew their man’s -name and were looking for him and the scent seemed fresh and hot

They had to standgy him and chafe his hands and give him stimulants and geop him, times past counting, that there was no more danger the he was quite safe. 3 So it took time to bring him round; it took the better pan a precious half hour.

He came very near to collapsing all over again when an ambulance surgeon and a policeman carried bin into his inner room and he beheld the state of it. He fiat not wished to go in there at all, but it was necessary that. heshould go in order that he might find the letter for them. ye The letter, now, was almost the first thing he had spoken of after his fear-addled mind began rationally to function, Jphad come to him on the day before, he remembered. According to his custom, he had filed it away in one of his wooden stomge chests. It was a short letter, brisk and businesslike and, i for the signature, done on a typewriter. Its author began by saying he had read in the daily press that Mr. Hite hadetipder way an amalgamation of the principal companies of theipeal dairy industry.

already on record among the listed believers in the curing of social and financial ills by smash and scatteration—who else but Axel Tappan would have been so likely to evolve this almost perfect plan for encompassing Fergus Hite’s destruction and, on top of that, boldly to furnish in advance such sure evidence against himself?

If further proof of the identity of the murderer were needed— which it wasn’t, it seemed—the re- mains of the bomb provided it, as the experts pointed out later that same day. This trick of sealing it in a perfectly inno- cent appearing outer covering, with a com- mon string appar- ently accidentally hitched under the box lid within, a string connecting with a coiled spring which on a sharp pull would bring a tiny hammer smartly down upon the cap of the bomb proper—they found bits of the hammer and scraps of the spring—was_ abso- lutely just such a trick as Axel Tappan might be expected to contrive.

Five minutes, say, after old man Hite’s shaking forefinger had pointed out the letter where it lay atop a riffle of papers in one of his crude filing cabinets, things began to happen here and there and everywhere. Make it six minutes for good measure—two min- utes for the police- man to read the letter and two minutes for him to fire a rapid volley of leading questions at Mr. Hite and the last two minutes for him to get Headquarters on the telephone. It was quick work, with more of the same to follow—a general alarm going out over the Central Office wires to every corner of the five boroughs, a patrol wagon load of reserves tearing off from the Mercer Street station bound for the address in Great Jones Street; and in the shops of-all the evening papers the staffs throw- ing together the second batch of extras of that crowded morning. One crop had been on the streets for half an hour or more, these telling in bulletin flashes of Fergus Hite’s miraculous escape and of the shocking death of one of his employees. This second sowing would broadcast in sharp, staccato paragraphs the brief summary of this newest and most startling dénouement. Some of the papers called it startling, some called it sensational; some called it both sensational and startling, which undoubtedly it was.

That was a day for extras. They trod upon one another’s tails coming off the presses, as the fresh developments kept piling up and pyramiding. Mark how they did:

For one thing, the police did not catch Tappan. Neither that day nor the next day nor the day after did they catch him. For the matter of that, the police never did catch him. Here came the cops, clattering into Great Jones Street, spilling out the back end of their patrol wagon in a blue cascade and swarm- ing into and around the specified house, which was an old residence converted into a rooming house.

Their man wasn’t there. He had been there but he was gone. His late landlady supplied excited information as to the manner of his departure. All the early part of the morning he had been hanging about the street doorway; he seemed to be waiting for something, she thought. Then a news vender came into the street baying extras. Tappan had bought a paper from this person, had glanced at the front page, had

crumpled the sheet into his pocket, had-drawn his hat his face, had walked away, going eastward. That wo ait b an hour, roughly, before the search party came. In view ff!’

his green room, rather—where latterly he had made up and re- hearsed for sinister undertakings; this also was plainly to be seen. In the loft, ranged in glass cabinets, were working models of many completed inventions, some full sized, some in miniature. In drawers under the cases were neatly arranged the plans, the scale drawings, the patent office papers for each of these. There was a forge, a wood-turning lathe, a portable smelter, laboratory equipment, all manners of tools and implements, an array of delicate mechanisms for testing and welding and weighing and balancing. A jumble of unfinished parts, of things half done and then cast aside, cumbered the corners and filled odd jogs in the walls and made unsightly rubbish heaps on the

‘floor. There were no recognizable

explosives about, nor were any prime constituents out of which explosives might be mixed and made to be found in the cluttered place.

These, though, were in the Second Avenue rooms, in an abundance fit to blow up a regiment. Also, the official invaders came upon much else of in- terest—such objects, for instance, as crépe hair, camphor gum, grease paint, wigs and shells of false teeth so fash- ioned that they might be slipped into place over the wearer’s real teeth, thereby changing the set of his lips and the lines of his mouth. A roomy closet, built out into the kitchen, housed a wardrobe ample to provide for a dozen masquerades, and all complete down to the shoes and the hat that matched with each change. There were canes, umbrellas, handbags and a litter of what actors would call personal props for character make-up. Drawing on this abundant store, its owner might go forth as a tired business man, a panhandler, a book agent, a clergyman, a longshoreman. It was like the costume room, back stage, of a resident stock company’s theater. No, there’s a better simile—it was like a page out of an old-fashioned dime novel.

It made news, all this swiftly uncovered revelation of the triple réle essayed through months and perhaps through years by this Axel Tappan. What gorgeous news it (Continued on page 159)

The Setting:

ULL, lead colored light filtered through dirty panes of whitewashed glass into a long, narrow, high ceilinged, coffin shaped room. It cast an unbecoming reflection on the faces of nine women lying on as

many plank beds, one of which I had occupied myself for nearly seven months.

The beds were lined up on either side of the room, starting at the small end, where there was but a narrow gangway be- tween them, and widening out towards the other end, where one bed was placed beneath the sealed window.

The atmosphere had the same tangible quality as the fur- nishings. It was a concrete thing composed of smells. In a corner hung a line full of half washed clothes; on one of the side walls was a row of hooks holding velvet and fur wraps, a filthy sheepskin coat and a peasant shawl. On _ the long deal table was a miscellaneous assortment of dirty cups and plates.

It was not a pretty scene, and as I surveyed it in the hard morning light I could not help reflecting that the nine of us, all political prisoners in the Moscow prison of the Cheka, were just as ill assorted as our belongings. On the bed at the wide end of the room a peasant woman was’sitting in a grimy, unbleached chemise. nibbling sunflower seeds. Her next door neighbor was still sleeping, her head buried in two huge lace trimmed pillows, her blue silk quilt pulled up over her ears; and she

ababy face sat up in bed and reached under the wooden headrest vhich served her as a pillow, pulling out a pack of cards made fom the long paper mouthpieces of Russian cigarettes.

“Godanya,” she announced cheerfully. So saying she dealt the cards into nine piles, face down, naming them as she did so, then picked them up one by one. For one woman there was good news, for another an illness and so on till she came to her own pile. She looked at it, shrugged her shoulders and laughed. “‘Smert—death,” she said shortly. ‘“Vsyo rovno— who cares?”

The key grated in the lock and she hastily thrust the cards under her pillow just in time to escape the eye of a tall man in a thaki blouse and high boots, wearing an astrakhan cap and carrying a large copper teakettle. At this there was a general scramble for empty bottles, teapots, cups and bowls. we man grinned. “Tea by the cup only,” he ordered. Water heater’s busted this morning.”

of the room; those who had them with towels flung over one shoulder, soap and toothbrushes in their hands. In the wash- room we took turns two at a time washing in a big tin trough with ice cold water.

One woman stood on guard at the peephole in the door where the guard often looked in to see what was going on, while several others scanned the walls for messages from relatives or fellow party members.

There was a suppressed exclamation of delight from an An- archist. “X, B, forty-seven, two,” she read. “‘Vassili got out yesterday!” A Left Social Revolutionary spied an equally cryptic inscription written on the wall with a sharp instrument and almost invisible: “The hunger strike in all prisons starts tomorrow. S. R.’s take note.”

Meanwhile Maria Petrovna, after emptying and cleaning the parashka, deposited in a crack in the wall a tiny note written on cigarette paper to a comrade in another room, tucking into the bosom of her dress a similar note she had found.

These activities were interrupted by a knock on the door.

“Are you going to stay in there all day?” demanded a hoarse voice.

Thereupon the necessary ablutions were hastily completed and we marched back to the stifling room, where the deshyurnyi washed dishes and the rest settled to various occupations.

commandant came in and called the roll; then quiet reigned till dinner time.

Txe dezhyurnyi took in and distributed nine bowls of herring soup. Several women undid handkerchiefs or dived in bags under their beds, producing delicacies sent them from home, and sharing them with their less fortunate companions. Soup was followed by kasha, a mush made of boiled millet.

After the dezhyurnyi had handed back the empty bowls and wiped the table with an old shirt sleeve, most of the women threw themselves on thei: beds. For a while there was silence.

If anyone spoke in an undertone, he ordered ‘“‘No talking.”

Nevertheless she was the recipient of many messages con by a sign or a whispered word for comrades “na volio,” outside in the event of her release. :

After she had gone everyone speculated on her changes Perhaps she had been freed, perhaps summoned for trial, ' taken to another prison; but in any event Maria Petrovna had passed out of the lives of most of us forever.

During the night the electric light was switched on several times by the guards, who peeped through the g/azok to see that we were not up to any tricks. Once one prisoner sprang from her bed crying out, “God o’ mercy! They’ve come.”

Another day was over in the Cheka. I checked it off on my calendar—May 18, 1921. It was my twc-hundredth day. How many more would there be just like it, I wondered; and yet, on second thoughts, were they so much alike after all? I had met hundreds of women of all types and classes and had learned to know them in prison as I could have nowhere else. Each had her story, and I had heard most of them, whispered or told outright during the long days and longer nights in the Cheka. Every one was different, and each was a human document taken from real life.

While the inmates of number twenty-three were in the washroom a new prisoner had been brought in, and they had returned to be unexpectedly confronted with a figure so absolutely fantastic as to suggest tightmare rather than sober living reality.

The newcomer, apparently a boy about sixteen years old, stood leaning against the table, both hands in his pockets. He vas of medium height, slightly built, and so thin that the skin drawn over his pallid cheek bones looked as if it must hurt. Abig smudge of dirt decorated his chin. His cap was pulled down far over his sunken, greenish gray eyes, still further concealed by a shock of light brown hair. He wore black leather boots, from one of which two grimy toes protruded, filthy \taki breeches and a torn sheepskin coat.

“Chom dyel—what’s the row?” he asked calmly.

Dies at the Bandit’s Dump the other night We had a shindig wild as you could ask; Each of the boys had brought his private flask And I got half cut, very keen and bright. Just as the party reached its highest height mebody kissed me, I've forgotten who, When suddenly my hick friend hove in view And knocked that kissing bug clear out of sight.

And then he chucked me in a taxicab

And took me home, and when I said, *’I think You're just a Puritan, a kill-joy crab!"

His comeback was: “You're much too young to drink, Hooch does no good to people who are grown,

And God knows kids should leave the stuff alone "

If mother weren't so bourgeois in her views, So out of touch with life as lived today, She might give me advice that I could use, But now, of course, there's nothing she could say To solve my problem. So my heart is racked: I do not understand the way men act.

He blinked a little, then he said at last: “I thought you liked a guy that trotted fast. So I've been going like a shooting star. I didn't like it, but I thought you did! And as for you—and how I like you, kid. I like you best the way you really are.

“Well, whad'dyuh say?” he asked. I kind of smiled, And all at once he hugged me half to death And called me Honeybunch and Angel Child And kissed me till I couldn't get my breath, And by the way he did that little trick Tll say the boy had ceased to be a hick.

Mother was right! They surely do come back. They'll trot with Wild Ones quite a little distance, But give ‘em time and maybe some assistance And they'll be camping on the Nice Girl's track. But if you hold “em, you have got to use A little of the Wild One's line of stuff. For if you haven't vim and pep enough Sooner or later you are bound to lose!

A fellow likes ‘em young and gay and smart, He likes the Flapper ‘cause she's all alive: So I will keep my place in Hiram's heart By being a Flapper till I'm ninety-five. Or till death mutters, grinning through the door, “That's all there is—there isn't any more!"

Herbert fell for it. Publicity is worth whatever you have to pay for it, especially to the leading men for popular lady stars who are pretty apt to hog all the newspaper limelight for themselves.

So the press agent took Herbert to St. Luzetta’s for a try-out and turned him loose in the children’s ward.

Herb was an instantaneous hit. There must have been some- thing genuine underneath the flash exterior of Herb’s personality to make the youngsters take to him so enthusiastically. It scarcely seemed possible that he could fool them as easily as he did flappers.

The ward was jammed full. Herb sat on the floor right in the middle of the youngest and smallest with the others ranged around him on the chairs and beds. It’s no cinch to. be a ma- gician with beady, devouring eves watching you so closely and Herb knew it.

One girl in particular—she looked about thirteen or fourteen— challenged his supreme efforts. She had been carried in bodily, wrapped in a blanket, by a gizantic colored woman who handled the burden as easily and efficiently as a traveling crane trans- porting a down pillow.

There was something about the girl’s face that made Herb want to cry—Herb, who had been pleaded with profanely by his director to show any emotion of any kind even if it didn’t fit.

She looked as if she had never, never had any fun and as if she wanted to dreadfully. Her features were tiny, lovely in an elf-like way and someway intense. Swathed in her blanket she seemed like a little wild thing peeping out of its burrow ready to pop back again if you made a swift move. Dark she was, with blue eyes though, and very fine, very sleek, close fitting hair.
