Got Them All
Anthropometry does not seem to be
always infallible. The Paris Scotland
Yard wanting a missing thief, had
proofs drawn of six photographs of the
man, taken in different posit Yus some!
time before. These were sent, with;
careful specifications of body measure-!
meins, marks, linger prints, and so on, j
to various parts of France. The bead j
Paris ollice has just received from the
chief of police in a small town the fol
lowing complacent letter:
"Photographs of the accused persons j
wi mu you desired me to trace duly to,
hand. I am happy to be able to inform !
you that l have succeeded in arresting j
live of the men, whom I now have un- j
uer lock and key. M\ best detective;
assures me that he is on tin* track ot
the >ixth man, and will certainly cap- ;
ture him before long."

When E. T. Testerman. of Morrison, I
>cttted on his farm south of town, at
r lie opening of the stYip twelve years,
ago, he found a lot of vigorous sunfiow-;
4‘i‘s growing on the place, according to j
the usually veracious S m. He used a ;
number of them for fence posts, bind
ing three of them together a ad putting
them in the ground the same as wood j
IH»tstringing the wire on them, j
These po>ts are standing today, and!
