PARIS, Nov. 26.-To be a pre-

kings dangling at ones apron

Regina Badet, is not the little lady

Partisan favorite, celebrated for
her wonderful poses and for the
extraordinary number of photo

known as dancer, though recently
she decided to become an actress,
and will in the near future appear
on the stage in role full of dra-
matte possibilities.
For a long time it was gossiped
along the boulevards that the ruler

fire had gained such Roadway that
they could do little to save those
in the building. Ladders were
pushed against the blazing walls,
only to become ignited, break and
fall before the firemen could reach
the upper windows.
Life nets were hastily spread in
the streets and the frantic EN-.
ployes leaped for their lives. Some
Of them missed the nets and fell
groaning to the sidewalks. Many
were saved with only slight in
juries, but some of the last to jump
were terribly burned before they
left the building. They were hur-
ried to hospitals. Six of those who
jumped from the upper windows
were killed as they crashed to the
pavement.
Some of the firemen who were
Juggling to hold the life nets in po-
sition. were struck by the falling
bodies and were injured.
EIGHT OF VICTIMS GIRLS.
Most of the employees in the
building were girls, and at least
eight of the Is known dead are
girls. 1t is believed that many
girls whose bodies have not been
recovered, persisted in the fire.
Although the fight was apparent
ly hopeless, the firemen worked
heroically to save the victims.
They fought each other to be first
to enter the building, and many
of them were dragged insensible

Puzzle TO Trace the Lost Pennies

chase is the smallest that can be
made But of late there have been
more demands for pennies from the
west. and the government eXperls
have declared that this is a sign OF
increased frugality
In the east, the chief use of the
penny. outside of filing the childs
bank and buying the daily paper, Is
for the purchase of chewing gum and
one-cent candies. The increase in the
number Of penny-in-the-slot phono-
graphs and moving picture machines
in the last few years shows another
way to which the public has taken to
get rid of it's pennies.
Uncle Sam takes in many pennies
for stamps and post cards, and many
of them flow into the contribution box
in the churches and religious societies.
But all these ways in which the penny
is nut to use does not explain where
they eventually go or what makes
them disappear in such vast quantities
every year. Even the government
coinage experts do not give a satisfac-
tory answer to the problem.
They give the following reasons for
the disappearance of the coppers-faIl-
ing through cracks into holes and dark
places; used in various arts and
crafts: locked up for years in chill
dren's banks, etc, but these eXplana.
tions do not seem satisfactory when
the number of new pennies coined
nach vnar is taken into consideration.
