SECRET OF, PICKING A SAFE LOCK

Miller James was the most artistic
safe breaker in the business" said Lee
COZ, the detective, HE is dead now.
He opened in his time more than 700
safes without tools or gunpowder-sole-
ly by working out the combination with
his fingers.
1T took me year he once said TO
learn the trick of picking combinations.
| studied all the locks there We're, and
| had three safes Of different makes TO
practice on The ear is the most I'M
portant factor in my method, and II
must be held tight against the safe
door on line with the tumblers. When
the knob of the lock is turned slowly
and one Of the tumblers reaches the
notch corresponding to the first number
of the combination the tumbler WIN
fan with little click. Care must be
taken not to displace this tumbler:
You keep on trying the knob back and
forth gently till each of the tumDlers
drops. Then the door opens. Hardly
one man I'm a thousand has an ear deli
cate enough for this work, and to be a
success al it you've got TO give up to-

wIII HoIldsv Nh trade monopolizes attention.

Will say:
although there is steady gain in dis
lribution of winter goods as the tempera-
tme becomes more seasonable.
While il is somewhat early to have
very definite information regarding the
next crop of winter wheat the depart
ment of agriculture has approXimated
final results so closely in the December
reports of recent years that its promise
of new high record production has d
natural tendency to depress quotations.
The decline was not severe, however,
chiefly because of inadequate railroad
facilities which continued to restrict re-
eeipts at primary markets.
There was a much more violent re-
sponse to government figures in the cot
ton market where the prices fell to the
position held month ago before the
sharp advance to the highest point of the
season.
Liabilities of commercial failures thus
far reported for December, amounted to
S2,SGi3S4, of which S,S2t.On were in manu-
featuring, 81, ,027 .693 in trading and $17 500
