I had especial social advantages there since a cousin of mine was married to a man occupying, a confidential position in the foreign office. Her husband was very much In love with her and was used to tell ing, her state secrets that came under his notice—of course with the under standing that she would not reveal them. It Is hard enough for men to keep secrets, but it seems harder for wom en. One day my cousin told me a state secret that would be immensely valuable for publication. I needed funds and would not have hesitated to sell it but for the fear of Implicat ing the person from whom I received It But on this account I bad no. thought of doing so. But I did not guard it as I should have done. I had received- consider able favor socially from Caspar von Hullg, a young German, and we had become very chummy. One evening while we were drinking wine together I broached the 'subject to him He at ouce asked where I got my Infor mation. This brought me to my senses, and I threw him off tbe track by hinting nt a source entirely -foreign to my cousin. Th e same evening she sent me a note by her maid, disguised, telling me that the foreign department had become aware that its secret had got out and was hunting for the leak age. I responded that I bad not im plicated her and she would do well not to do anything to cause a suspicion that I had obtained tbe secret through her. From thut moment I was conscious of being watched. I haVe since thought thut I \\>.^ld huve been arrested had It not beeu that tbe government was bout upon.decoying me Into revealing the source from which I bad obtained the secret. I l of rained from any men tion of the matter to Von Hullg, for I now knew that he was a secret servant of tile government. Fearing that I would be thrown into prison I determined to make an at tempt to leave- Germany. Had I known the workings of the German secret service as I do now I should have hod little hope of evading those who were watching me. However, I was well aware that no attempt to leave German territory would be suc cessful unless well considered and car ried out wlih great care. I was but nineteen years old—not surprising to one wh o has read thus fur in this story—and in juvenile the atricals had usually been assigned girls' parts. What little beard I had was very light, and a good shave nnd plenty of powder concealed it. My chief difficulty was to secure women's clothps. I had been used to seeing my cousin quite often and thought It best to con tinue my visits. I went to see her, told ber thnt I was about to Hghtj out and asked her if she could secure me woman's apparel for the purpose. She was not much older than I and, being frightened, scarcely knew whether to consent to my going or not. She final ly concluded that if I could elude those watching me I would better go and promised to send me an outfit. She seut it by her maid, an Austrian, who was of great benefit to me. She brought me tbe clothes in the middle of the night and gav e m e a letter to her people in Vienna, stating that I was a friend of hers who was going to Austria to seek a position as ladles' maid. She also brought me a woman's passport. In the morning, dressed as a girl, I left my room. On the opposite side of the street a man was lounging and I did not doubt thnt he was watching the house for me. He seemed not a bit suspicious of my being a woman, but I thought it best to meander for awhile through the streets before going to the station, I had no adventure betweeu Berlin nnd Vienna, though during tbe day a man passed through the train, scruti nizing the passengers. But he must have been looking for a man. At any rate, he paid little hoed to me, nnd as soon n<; he in ; gc-m> I breathed freely again. I have no doubt as soon as I was missed from my rooms every train that hud left Berlin after mid night was scrutinized. When I left Germany rind crossed the Austrian border I felt very nerv ous until after my passport had been examined, then I felt that I bad a >bance for success. Nevertheless there was plenty of espionage in Austria, nnd I would not feel out of the woods until I had passed dowu into Italy, where I hoped to find a steamer at Genoa sailing for America. I lived a week with the family to whom I had a letter and would hnve stayed longer had not a young govern ment clerk fallen In love with me. This drove me out, and 1 made for Genoa and escaped to the land where nobody is Watched. My cousin never learned whether she was suspected of giving me the gov ernment secret She never even heard that I had eluded my followers except from myself, though when I wrote her from home I dare not mention my flight Soon after the^cplsode her hus band was removed to a department of the government where there were no secrets that he could tell his wife. It was evident that in.\ cousin hnd been suspected of giving me the se cret Doubtless the government, hav ing proof against her, preferred to pre vent ber sinning again without accus ing her. Always Be Sure of the Number ''jpHER.E are two ways to call a telephone number. The wrong wa y is to call from memory; to \take a chance \ to trust to luck that your memory doesn't play a trick on you, with the fickle figures in a telephone number. The right wa y is to consult the Telephone Directory and make SURE you have the righ t number. The RIGHT way saves annoyance to yourself and to the persons you might have called by mistake. It helps build up a higher grade of service for yourself and others. Always consult the Telephone Directory —Make sure you call the right number. New York Telephone Company James E.
