Use x-Rays on Thieves.

X-rays have been subjected to a
novel purpose in Calcutta. A thief was
supposed to have stolen a diamond
worth 10000 rupees and to have eff
fectually secreted 1t on his person by
swallowing it. Expert thieves in India
temporarily secrete small valuables of
this description in the throat It is
called ''pouehing." and the thieves un-
dergo special training in order to rem
der them proficient in the art. The
plan is simple. A small piece of lead
is attached to thread. and this the
neophyte swallows. then by the action
of his tongue he guides the lead to the
orifiee OF the sac in the throat The
pupil is prevented from completely
swallowing the lead by, the piece of
thread which the teacher holds When
the man has become skillful in this act
of swallowing. the leaden pellet is
coated with lime, which has the effect
of enlarging the sac so that It becomes
capable of retaining large articles. In
the case of Calcutta the Roentgen rays
revealed the presence of some obstacle
in the throat. but its precise Identity
could not be gathered.

There are more American boots and

the biggest scale procurable. The out
put OF one factory alone is 5000 pairs

that Now. mark Every one OF these
1900 pairs is sold wholesale at the
same price. The consequence Is that
the whole time and thought and capi-
tai OF the manufacturer is concentrated
on thise one problem namely. how to
produce the best possible shoe for that
money. II goes without saying that
the American manufacturer has the
very latest machinery and plenty OF il.
