OF Worlds EmbczzEcrS
a ARIS. Aug. 6.-The waiting
game is still a popular policy

ARIS. Aug. 6-The waiting
game is still a popular policy
with the French police. Some
months ago Paris detectives chased
young French cnbezzler into
Greece. and found him protected from
extradition by the authorities, whom
he paid well; so they quietly sat
down and waited for the criminal to
spend al his stolen money. Then
when he had to move away and
crossed into Italy, the detectives ar
rested him and brought him here
Ferdinand Bolle, aged "a, was a
clerk III the Societe Generate Bank
He was married and also had a sepa-
rate establishment over which a young
lady friend presided. He received
notice of discharge just at the time
that everyone was talking of Jean
Gallay. the bank clerk baron" and
Mile. Merclli Bolle said to himself
Why should | not initiate this
GALAXY So he began to fill in
checks and forge signatures. In a
few days he cashed in $4,000 Then
he left Paris with his mistress. The
couple fed to Corfu and took a charm
ing and luxurious villa. They began
to have a gay time.
Bolle foolishly wrote TO some
friends in Paris detailing the lively
life he was leading. The police were
waiting for just such letters and two
detectives armed with the necessary
papers Immediately went to Corfu.
When they called on Bolle he intro
duced them to his fair companion
and feted them But he refused to
return to France
The detectives, when they tried to
extradite him, found that the authori-
ties were proecting Bolle. They ap-
pealed to the Greek Minister of the
Interior and to the Chief of Police of
Corfu, but received only promises.
Then the French ambassador took a
hand. This resulted in Bolle and his
companion being expelled from that
particular village, the authorities of
which were dismissed But the fugi-
tives merely moved on to the next
village and took another villa. The
French detectives thereupon tele-
graphed that until Bolle had spent
all his money an arrest was impos
sible. They were then ordered to wait
like Patience on monument until
the bank clerk had run through his
last dollar. Bolle was spending
money like billionaire and for five
weeks the two detectives went fishing,
smoked and slept and enjoyed them
selves
When Bolle finally came to the end
of his stolen spoils he and his COM
panion took a little coast vessel to
Brindisi. The detectives awaited
them on arrival, arrested Bolle and
quickly got extradition
On arrival in Paris Bolle and the
detectives told their stories to Ex-
amining Magistrate Berr, who also
questioned Bolle's mistress. She de-
MED knowing where the mans money
came from and was discharged Bolle
made full confession. He declared
that the Greek authorities knew he
was thief and made him pay Il heavy
sum each day for protection from ar
rest.

VERY LONG WHISPERS.
The Wind Izz-ers Raised in Historic
Pike County, Missouri
(speneersburg (Mo.) Cor New York
World.)

| (Speneersburg (Mo.) Cor. New Yorl
World.)
| Valentine Tapley, of Speneersburg
and E. h. Gates, Of Curryville, are be
lieved by the people of Pike county tc
have the longest boards in the world
Gates was born in Kentucky, was a
gold-hunter in '49. and has lived in
Pile county since before the Civil War
He is an old friend of Champ Clark
and a former judge of the district. He
wraps his whiskers about his body un.
der his clothes. and the casual observer
would not realize that the appendage
is 50 long.
Valentine Tapley is past so. and his
whi.ke are II feet long. He is one of
the oldest residents Of the county and
one Of the wealthiest. He exhibits his
whiskers with much pride. and dislikes
anyone who questions whether they are
the longest in the world. He is hale
and hearty and lives an active life on
t.e farm, doing the hardest of work
which does not endanger his remark
able whiskers; but he will not burn
brush OF work around a fire. The belief
that shaving quickens the growth of
beard is not sustained in the case of
Tapley, for he states that he never did
shave. The beard appeared when he
was IS years Of age. Before he was 20
Tspley had to plait his beard, and wear
.hc tip Of it aside his vest. In the
lext FIVE years he began to wear it in
,de his shirt. The next provision was !
o welr t around lis body beneath his
lothes.
When the beard was eight feet long
was declared the longest in the
7orld, and Tapley received fine offer
o exhibit himself in a museum. but he
ishked publicity and the thought Of
saving the farm.

| All women work; some in Their
homes, some in church, and some in
the whirl of society. And in stores
mills and shops tens of thousands are
on the never-ceasing treadmill, earning
their daily bread.
All are subject TO the same physical
laws; all suffer alike from the same
physical disturbance, and the nature of
their duties, in many cases, quickly
drifts them into the horrors of all
kinds of female complaints, tumors,
liberation, falling and displace-
ments or perhaps irregularity or
suppression, causing backache, ner-
vousness, rritability and lassitude.
They especially require an invigorat-
ing, sustaining medicine which will
strengthen the female organism and
enable them to bear easily the fatieues
of the day, to sleep well at night, and
to rise refreshed and cheerful.
How distressing TO see q woman
struggling to earn livelihood or per.
form her household duties when her
back and head are aching, she is SO
tired she can hardly drag about or
stand up, and every movement causes
pain, the origin of which is due to
some arrangement of the female or
ganism.
Miss F. Orser, ofl4 Warrenton Street.
Boston, tells women how TO avoid such
suffering; she writes:
