How Craftsman Strikes a Match.
ever see a craftsman strike a
match?" asked Chief of Detectives
Miller. No? Well. he does it with
an exaggeration of gesture such as
you see in baseball pitchers. He
crouches low down, draws the match
quickly over his trousers, rises and
throws his arm high above his head as
the flame appears. and then losses the
match at once away, having given him
self just time to take quick look
about him. He scratches the match
low down; thus you. If you are there,
hear the sound in one place. He lifts
it above his head, and thus the sound
and the light, in two different locali-
ties at almost the same time, confuse
you, and If you shoot at the flame
you do not hit the craftsman. He
throws the match quickly away, so
that you may not have the look around
the room that he obtained. "-Philadel-

are of greatest value then, but they
are also of inestimable value in the or
binary kitchen work, as the extract
takes the place of meat and soup bones

ton for gravies and meat sauces and
also strengthens and tlavors stews,
