his watch.
"On these Sheets he explained, ON.

something in this mans mind that they
did not understand.
"Groener," demanded the magistrate
impressively, do you still deny any
connection with this crime or n
knowledge concerning it?"
IT do" answered the accused.
"As I said before, l think you are

Thrifty Girls.
Dear Miss Doom:

My friend and 1 want to go to Asbury
Park or tlantic City this summer and
lake positions as Mattresses. We have
heard of students. both young men and
women, doing this, n as we have "a
s'dull' season in our work from June
. to September l we would like to do
tlle same.
How do these people do, live at the
hotel or some cottage?
Where can 1 obtain a list of hotels
who hire this class of people which I
refer to?
Are the wages which they pay very
much? When Is the best time to write
for such positions? Is there any4harm
I'm taking the position I write about?
G. S.
Many girls store up quite a nest egg
In this way. The proper way to go
about it is to register at some employ
ment agency in May or June that
makes a speciality of placing hotel help.
The wages are quite good. The sleep
ing accommodations and food provided,
however, are not usually very good, but
If you and your friend roomed together
you could probably make your room

1 say, 'Ansonia' to you and you are
the murderer of Martinez. it will take
you n or two or three seconds longer
to decide upon a safe answering word
than It would have taken if you were
not the murderer and spoke the first
word that came to your tongue. Do
you see?"

after all, it's only an experiment; it

The magistrate reflected a moment.

two things he said, either that you
are innocent or that you are a man OF
extraordinary mental power. / don't
believe the latter, so-yes, I should
think you innocent"
Let me understand this" laughed
the prisoner; you say over a number
or words and I answer with other
words. You note the exact moment
when you speak your word and the
exact moment when l speak mine, then
you see how nan seconds elapss be-
tween the two moments. Is that itg'
That's it. only l have a watch that

Suppose I refuse?"

But if I do"
The magistrates face hardened. IF
you refuse today I shall know how to
force you to my will another day. Did
you ever hear of the third degree,
Groener?" he asked sharply.
As the judge became threatening the
prisoners good nature increased. After
ALL he said carelessly. what does 1t
matter? Go ahead with our little
game. 1t rather amuses me-"
And, without more difficulty, the test
began, Hauteville speaking the pre-.
pared words and handling the stop
watch, while Coauenil, sitting beside
him, wrote down the answered words
and the precise time intervals.
First, they established Groener's av-
erage or normal time of reply when
there was no emotion or mental efcrt
involved. The judge said milk ana

Quick as a fash NJ. Paul bent toward
the judge and said something in a low

a start of satisfaction, Then to Groe-

"Why-er-he said so just now" an

the prisoner.

r UST when the women suffragists are doing their
best to prove that acquiring the vote will in no
way detract from their dignity, and that husbands
have no reason to fear that their wives will in any way
hold themselves up to public criticism, Mrs. Alma Web
ster Powell, of New York, has come forth with the idea
of winning converts to the cause through kisses.
There isn't a man in America whose vote cannot
be bought for a kiss" she said at q club meeting in
