A reformed burglar says there are three
things that burglar breads. One is a
baby, the second is a little whiffet dog
ttat can sleep with both eyes open and
barks when a needle falls and the third is
a newspaper Almost always the paper
rattles or crackles when foot touches it.
Unless burglar is so desperate that he
will risk his own life, he will leave the
moment he strikes house strewn with
newspapers.
