Race She Ran As I saw the grey limousine ap proaching the same car, I was sure which had trailed my taxi on Fifth avenue, a feeling of panic almost made me lose control of the wheel. It lasted for only the fraction of a second, however, and then I forced my brain to planning my course. ; That they were looking for me it was foolish to question, after Lillian's warning. lv- With the thought that there was one chance in a thousand of their not recognizing me if I bent over the wheel and dashed past them, I crouched low, and pressed my foot on the accelerator. But before the car had covered much more than its own length the vision of my lit tle lad stopped me. They must not me permitted to come near him. ,- : - j ; i -., ;-' if. they obtained a good look at me, I reasoned, they would,, ho doubt, turn the car and start In pursuit of me, and even if I eluded them, which, with a sinking heart. I doubted, they would real ize that my trail led away from the farm house instead of to ward it. : The car was almost upon me, proceeding at a leisurely pace, and r guessed that someone within it was watching the . road. Being careful not to stall my engine, 1 brought my own car to a stop.: held out my hand in the usual motor ist's signal for aid. "What Do You Want?" I !'; .1 - : The gray limousine slowed, swung in so close to me that the fenders of the two cars, almost touched. I had left myself plenty of spacq. at the right, however, and I had my. car ready for a touch to send it onward. But I needed all the resolution I had .to keep myself sanely poised when I saw in the. car the fashionably yashmak veiled woman, .who,.

Only her ycs gleamed InscruUbly between fhe folds of the veil shrouding her face. But a powerful looking man at her side growled discoarte ously: -"What do yoa want?" "Just this," I said rapidly. "You will find nobody you wish at the farmhouse. Mrs. Underwood and my father hae gone to Washington, and I am on my way to New York for two days." 1 did not wait for an answer, for at my words both the chauf feur and the big man sprang to the grounds I missed the leap of one to thf running board, the snatch at the wheel of the other bv the fraction of an inch and a second. And then I was tearing! down the rdad. getting every ounce of speed out of my small car, men tally calculating the chances of reaching some village or farm house before they should overtake 'me. '--, A Quick Decision. " It was an almost hopeless out look, I knew, for 1 had been over the road sufficiently to remember that I was upon a particularly lonely stretch. No use either To appeal to any passing motorist, even if a car should come In sight. There was more than a chance that the motorist would not stop, and I should lost valuable time by slowing up. Never In my motoring career have I ever thought I would long to see a motorcycle officer halt my car, but I subconsciously prayed for a sight of the familiar uniform, even though I knew how hopeless the petition was. It was the sea son of the year when the force numbers its fewest men, and each has an immense amount of terri tory to cover. 'I did not dare to turn my head at the speed I was going, but I knew if now accident had befallen the gray limousine it would be Upon me before many more min utes, or perhaps seconds. It was a powerful, costly car- in compari son to its engine mine wag a child's wind-up toy its chauffeur was an experienced driver, and the race could have but one conclu sion. ' Hopelessly I watched the mirror set at the left of my windshield. I guessed they would blow no horn as they drew up to me, and their engine was so perfect a thing that I 'heard no sound at all when In the mirror I caught my first glimpse of them stealing up on me. . i I saw what they meant to do. They would crowd me toward the ditch on the side of the road, so that I would be compelled to stop my car or cash into the ditch. With the reflection that it would be better to face whatever awaited me with my body and mind unin jured, I put out my hand, in the signal for stopping that instinct DIL B. II.
