The Unwise ShopIifter.

TT is strange" said store detective.
why women shoplifters want to take
the whole family along when they. go
out on thieving expedition. 1t Is a
fact that many of them are accofnpa
MED by children when caught steafipg.
That seems a short sighted policy. "A
woman hampered by child stands
twice the chance OF being detected that
she does when operating minus such
an incumbrance OF course ii can be
argued that she fares better in the long
run, inasmuch as she is more likely to
be dismissed with only reprimand
on account of the child. This is mo
doubt true, for unless the offense is
very serious it takes a hard hearted
man to press charge against WON
an accompanied by children. But that
very line OF reasoning makes the act
more reprehensfbie
my own theory Is that most shop
lifters do not 60 shipping with the
fixed intention Of stealing. The mania
for taking something overeOmes them
after they get In the store. and they
snatch the goods on impulse. no mat

An Old Time New England Story OF
Stiney Parson.

An Old Time New England story Of
a Stinsy Parson.
Anecdotes in which the mean and
grasping man is outwitted or held up
to ridicule are popular everywhere and
always. Few ancient towns are with
out their historic or traditional in
stances of stinginess punished or sharp
practice defeated. In one village of
New England. says the Youths Com.
panion. there is still current such a tale
concerning an unpopular parson OF
more than a century ago.
Although a learned man of impress.
i've manners, this clergyman was noted
for undue reluctance to expend and
readiness to acquire. He had habit
of pleading poverty and limiting for
gifts. .t}. q
The parish, although with some muir
muring, had responded with fuel for

parson turned an honest but over
shrewd penny by selling instead Of
using many of these donations. But
they were not loud enough to disturb
his stately calm, and he went his way
without condescending to notice them.
At last however, fortune played him
trick for trick.
One pleasant winter day he made a
round Of calls, and at each house,
when just about to leave, he casually
asked his hostess If she could let him
have little piece of cheese, as his
wife happened to have none in the
house and unexpected company had
arrived. In each case the good house
wife, instead Of little piece, generous
ly presented him with whole cheese
which he graciously accepted. AS he
turned from the door stone at the close
of the last visit, while the mother of
the family and her brood of nine chill
dren stood politely gathered to watch
him drive away, he carelessly pulled
the wrong rein, the sleigh tipped
sharply on drift, and out from under
the ministerial lap robe rolled nine
large cheeses, which spun friskly away
in all directions on the icy crust
His hostess understood the situation
at a glance.
Don't disturb yourself. pray. sir"
she said politely as he made a motion
to descend. TT is quite unnecessary.
The children will gather them up, and
none will be overburdened or will
there be any quarreling for the priv
ilege. See; it is just a cheese to q
child"
So 1t was, and the embarrassed par
son, unable to escape, was obliged to
receive back his cheeses, with due
thanks to each giggling volunteer as
they came uP in gleeful procession one
by one.
Too we'll he knew that by the next
day the whole parish would be laugh
ing at his misadventures although he
could scarcely have guessed that the
joke would be recalled hundred
years later.

Lone Necked BELIEF.

Eastern standards of beauty differ.
IKE the customs. from those of the
west. In Malacca we are told. the
snail waist and velvet eyes do not
count. but instead the length of the
neck is the criterion of beauty. The
girl of Malacca at very early age
is fitted with metal collar. which
compels her to keep her head erect. and
as she grows the collar is incres sed In
size, and by this means the neck n
gradually elongated.
