Pickoockets Metbods.

When mob Of pickpockets start out
to "work crowd" on train, they break
into twos. The operator on leather fans
his intended victim. This, in plain
English, means that be ascertains the
location of his victims money. He gets
alongside of the man whose pocket is to
be picked, and with rapid movement he
dextcrously passes his fingers lightly over
every pocket. His touch is so delicate
that it enables him to locate the Doodle,
and to ascertain its character, whether
roI, purse, or pocketbook. The
surging Of the crowd, especially on
crowded railway train, accounts to the
suspicious traveller for the occasional
jostling he receives It is found that
the most common receptacle for the
pocketbook is the left trousers pocket
front. When victim is selected, one of
the brace Of thieves plants himself
squarely in front Of him, while the other
crowds up behind him on the right side
The operator in front, under cover of
newspaper or coat thrown over the arm,
feels the pocket, and, if the victim is q
stiff necked or straight backed man in
a standing position, ne finds the lips of
the pocket drawn close together. In this
case it is dangerous to attempt the inser-
tion Of the hand. A very low toned
clearing of she throat, followed by gut
tural rouse, is the signal for his pal to ex-
erS gentle pressure upon the victims
right shoulder. This is so gradually ex-
tended that the traveller yields to the
pressure without knowing it, and with
out changing the position Of his feet
This throws the lips of the pocket open
for the operator in front, who does not
insert his hand and attempt to draw the
book out, but works on the lining. He
draws it out an eighth of an inch at
time without inserting his fingers more
than half way.
contents Of the pocket to its mouth be
felt by the victim, another low clearing
of the throat gives the sign to the con,
federate, and the game is dropped. L
the victims suspicious are not aroused,
the pickpocket continues at his work of
drawing the lining out until the roll of
bills, the purse, or the pocketbook is in
reach Of the deft fingers. It is then
grasped- between the index and middle
finger and gently drawn out The sue
cessful completion of the job is indi-
Gated by q gentle chirrup, like the chirE

Advantages of Weeping.

A French physician gives a long desser-
tation on the advantages of groaning and
crying in general, and especially during
surgical operations. He contends that
groaning and crying are two grand opera
tons by which nature allays anguish, that
those patients who give way to their nat
ural feeling more speedily recover from
accidents and operations than those who
suppose it unworthy in man to betray
such symptoms of cowardice as either to
groan or cry. He tells of man who re-
duced his pulse from 126 to go in the
course of few hours by giving full vent
to his emotions If people are not at all
unhappy about anything, let them 60 into
their room and comfort themselves with
loud boo hoo, and they will feel 200 per
cent better afterward. In accordance
with the above, the crying of children
should not be too greatly discouraged.
What is natural is nearly always useful,
and nothing can be more natural than
the crying of children when anything oc-
ours to give them either physical or men

Running Down a Storm.

About two years ago the signal-serviee
bureau at Washington notified the Con-
IahtiJa that a cyclone-or certainly a
Iey heavy wind-storm-might be eX-
Iected to pass through Georgia within
|Tenty-four hours after the notification,
ION its way from the gulf to the Atlantic.
1.-THE cyclone did not come within the time
prescribed. Upon inquiry, the bureau
Ibks stated. that they had lost the cyclone
somewhere in the gulf, but they expected
Il to turn up later. 1t did turn up
fine next day, and it turned up a pretty
liz slice OF Georgia.
| That was about the first definite at
Tempt in this section to foretell storm.
ItBnow common thing for the bureau
InnOtify us that in forty-eight hours a
l0dwave or a storm will reach our city.
| The storm signal ahoat over the custom
11se is held to be as reliable as the
l ak over the way on the capitol. The
Il Eness OF the weather is rapidly becom-
one OF the great sciences. For ex-
ample, the observer at Portland, Oregon,
reports the barometer very much de-
FsNd at his station. There is the
lAlaeuS of storm. Instantly the points
Iglnd Portland are tested and the. area

n, for storms never stand still. A line

llch it is travelling. A comparison o.
L time of the observations shows the

f notified that it is coming and when
ley may expect it.
This fOreknowledge can be carried
