Broken, or only cracked, 1t made no difference to him, fof he stuffed the raw eggs into his mouth, generally shell. street dirt and all, and swallowed them down.
 "Ihash mos a chicken" he remark ed about one, [" but here she goes" and down it went.
 How many he ate none of the spec tators could tell, for they did not keep tally. but it was lot: dozen anyway and some said more than that. When he staggered back to the sidewalk. his face streaked with eggs, street sweeper scraped up what he had left and State street resumed it's l normal condition.

PAT GROVE REFORMS

II have had enough OF crime II
doesn't pay. There is nothing In Il
but sorrow and shame"
Pat Grove. the notorious kid
naper and all-round crook. gives
prOsaic reason for turing good.
All OF us have often heard the
same line of talk In the Sunday
schools In our callow days, and it
did not get very far under the skin
Most of us are apt TO regard NOR
al philosophy as something to be in
duleed I'm by kindly old ladies and
gentlemen who have little other
means OF entertainment.
The fact that IL is the most truly
vital element OF human life has to
be knocked into us generally by hard
experience.
But when a Pat Grove turns to
preaching It is worth while TO sit up
and take notice
Groves preaching does not come
from habit. He has no call to make
pious pretensions. Reilectiveness has
not taken hold upon him because of
any lack OF occupation or excitement
| He is no idle theorist or mild dream
err; but every word comes from him
with the force and accuracy OF the
bullets from his guns, which have
awed train crews and checked police
squads without number.
If, aside from didactic theory. It is
actually true that crime doesn't pay
| Grove is the very man TO know It.
And when he not only says so. but
supports his assertions by quitting
his life OF crime. and settling down
10 an effort TO lead law-abiding,
decent, useful life. he calls for more
han mere passing notice.
Grove has known about all there
is in the calendar OF crimes and
known IL all at its best" His cum
ming and his daring have put him at
The head OF his profession.
From his first bold stroke of hold
ing mp the inmates of a gambling
house and taking $1,000 worth of
! Jewels. through his next venture as
gentleman burglar, when he car.
ia off 100000. % innumerable
train hold-ups, where his gains are
| Incompatible, and the Cudahy kid
! rapine. where he got $4,000 AS
'asily as saying boo " his career, as
viewed from the standpoint OF Grim
inal success. was ext ordinary. phe-
nomenal
And If, after all. there is NOTHING
IN IT, Pat Grove is just the man to
lrow it. and to say il with author
ity, and to be listened TO
All the moral philosophy and eth
zeal reasoning tnnt enters so largely
ilto all the literature OF the world
is not more eloquent OF right mean
nv or more vrle with real force

Il wish the boys and young men
Who may read this would believe II.
Even If a man has TO go poor and
hungry and cold all his life. there
