Use Offensive Odor of Onions to Aid
 in ShopIlfting.

Incredible as 1t may seem" said Lecoq, the detective. there are num- Der of shoplifters who steal by the agency of the onion. These aband- oned men, before setting out upon their contemplated crimes, eat of raw onions abundantly. Then they stroll into the silversmith's or the haber- dashers or the jewellers that they pro- pose to rob. Show me those large solitaires surrounded with pigeon-blood rubies, please says the 5eweler thief The clerk brings forth the tray or gems and, bending over 1t, the thief sighs with admiration. His face close to the clerks. he sighs again. And the clerks nostrils quiver and he turns away his head. The inspection Of dia- monds continues for some minutes.
