The fact may be explained in any number of ways, in the first place, the criminal lias nothing to do but think out some plan of getting something that doesn't belong to him. That is his special business. Quite naturally the plan he works out under those circumstances will often startle even the oldest men in the police departments of the country. Who would have thought of the wire saw, a thing so small that it can be slipped in between the layers of the shoe sole, but the criminal who found in it a ready, convenient and unfailing means of escape? He is constantly thinking up some new scheme. Here we find a man and woman in a jewelry store. The woman carries a parrot with her.

[ The Best Winter CJovrr Sehesiifs That Aiil In Cfic I'er- WHEN Hosiery and Underwear "Thieves resort to clever methods in order to get away with the goods," said an old police officer, "and I am firmly convinced that if the criminals of the world would devote the same amount of time, talent and patience to thinking out uplifting and advantageous schemes for humankind they would in a short while revolutionize the world in many useful ways. Rut somehow the mind of the criminal seems to he sharper, if 1 may say it, and brighter and quicker than the mind of the honest man. The fact may be explained in any number of ways, in the first place, the criminal lias nothing to do but think out some plan of getting something that doesn't belong to him. That is his special business. Quite naturally the plan he works out under those circumstances will often startle even the oldest men in the police departments of the country. Who would have thought of the wire saw, a thing so small that it can be slipped in between the layers of the shoe sole, but the criminal who found in it a ready, convenient and unfailing means of escape? He is constantly thinking up some new scheme. Here we find a man and woman in a jewelry store. The woman carries a parrot with her. The bird suddenly gets away and begins to liutter around in the store. The jeweler is afraid the parrot will break something. lie tries to catch it and succeeds after a short while. A small purchase is made. The man and the woman leave. Result, several hundred dollars' worth of jewelry gone. It was stolen during the excitement over the bird/ Good scheme, eh?
