According to the French papers ar,
rangements are about completed Tor the
erection of monument to Theopn-
rast Renaudot, the founder OF Journal
ism In France. Both the Paris council
and the general council of the Seine
department have granted sums OF
money for the purpose. Jules Ciaretie
is the chairman of the committee which
has the project in charge, and Alfred
Boucher has been chosen as cuiptor.
Thcophrast Renaudot, who is to 90
honored, was born in Loudun in 1873
He studied medicine. After practicing
his profession for time in his native
place he was called to Paris by Car
dinal Richelieu in 1925. There he
established labor bureaus, loan-houses'
free hospitals and other institutions,
which made him popular with all
classes of people. On May 80, 1851.
Louis XII. gave him the privilege OF
printing and selling the news ana
stories of what has happened and what
may happen in and outside OF the KING
DOM" The first Gazette appeared on
the evening of the same day. The
future monument is to adorn the
Flower market, where the former
editor once had his office.

A western Firm VIII Take Photographs
or shopiiftsrs.
The amount OF dry Rooda millinery
and toilet articles filched from under
the watchful eyes OF saleswomen In
the leading retail stores Is something
enormous and Those not acquainted
with regular shop-lifting practices
conducted by scores OF light-6ngered
females in Minneapolis would be
greatly surprised at the tales the pro-
prietors aud floor walkers could tell
and at the names they could furnish.
says the Minneapolis Tribune
A pretty lace handkerchief or some
other article OF feminine use which
can be conveniently secreted In a
muff or tipped into convenient fold
OF dress seems to offer temptation
too great to resist even to respecta-
BILE ladies' who would grow hysteric-
ally indignant II an accusation OF theft
Is brought against them.
The practice OF shop lifting has de-
veloped enormously in Minneapolis
and one large firm. at least has
adopted a new and novel method OF
abating the practice OF petty pilfering.
From the counters of this concern
are daily stolen articles which are
never missed by the saleswoman until
a customer calls for that particular
thing. when its absence becomes con-
spicuoua Gradually the shoplifters
become known and when one enters
the door OF tho big house a signal
from the foor-walker puts clerk on
guard and the suspected woman Is
carefully watched.
II the clerk has reason to believe
that the woman has stolen from the
counters she Is taken into a private
room and searched. The little room
has witnessed many astounding dis
closures but what it will see In the
future will be very unique.
Every shoplifter will DO photo
graphed by kodak which has been
purchased for the purpose the use OF
which has been taught to one or more
OF the clerks The moment a shop
litter Is caught and theft Is proved
against her. her picture will be taken
and placed in private rogue's gal
lery and under promise OF secrecy
the clerks will have access to it.
By becoming familiar with the pic
ture the saleswoman can easily recog-
nize the woman whose thieving pro-
clivitics are SO well developed and
their thefts prevented.

Senator Ingalls, Of Kansas had
been elected an honorary member OF

There was no doubt about his eligi-

there is doctor who is great friend
Of the senator. This doctor had been
greatly ANNOYED by a newsboy who
would come into his Office very uncer-
enormously and poster him by trying
TO sell papers.
One day whom ingalls, was in the
Office the boy was heard coming up
the stairs. and the doctor decided to
put up job on him. He rushed out
an articulated skeleton. placed it in q
chair by the desk. and then the two
men withdrew to the back room.

noticing what was at the desk. came
directly up to the skeleton. When he
looked up and saw 1t grinning at him
he was nearly scared into commissions.

out at the boy who was standing be-

There seems to be little doubt that
the number of the visible stars is
really limited. Most astronomers
now admit that the total number of
stars visible in our largest telescopes
cannot much exceed 1OO,OOO,OOO. This
is, of course, large number, but COM
pared with an infinite number 1t is
really very small. 1t may be proved
mathematically-and the demonstra-
ton is very simple one-that were
the number of stars really infinite, and
equally distributed through infinite
space, the whole heavens would shine
with the brightness of the sun.
