CHRISTMAS WOOING OF CUPID.

Mystic Love Spells With Apples In
FoIs. gn Lands.
Apples enter into many Christmas
spells. In Austria on Christmas eve
the apple must he cut I'm halves in the
dark and without being touched by the
hand. The left hand half is then placed
in the bosom Of the diviner and the
right hand half behind the door of the
bedchamber. Then at midnight, should
the spell have been fully carried out,
the spirit or astral" Of the beloved
one appears. standing beside the half
which was laid behind the door.
Another charm is to cut an apple in
two and count the seeds in each hall.
If the numbers are even marriage will
be soon. II a seed Is cut in two there
will be trouble in the course of love.
and should two seeds be cut there will
be early widowhood.
A Sicilian maiden throws the fruit
from her window into the street and
watches. Should it lie long without
being picked up she will be widowed
soon after marriage. Should it be pick
ed up by woman marriage will not
be within the coming year, but should
1t be picked up by n man then she will
be welded before the next year is
ended

ELEVEN YEAR OLD BOY
ROBS CHICAGO HOTEL

Chicago.-After climbing the fire
escape to the fifth floor of the Pal
mer house, entering two rooms and
procuring $50 cash, a watch and vari-
our articles of feminine jewelry, while
the occupants slept, Frank Stopke, II
years old, known as Young Raffles"
among his dry goods box companions
of South Halsted street, was caught
by James Wood, night bell boy of
the hotel, just as he was emerging
from the doorway of room 595 at
o'clock yesterday morning.
Stopke squirmed past the bell boy
and made a dash for the stairs, but
before he reached the landing Wood
overlook him, grasped him aroung
the legs and, throwing him to the
floor, yelled for help. The noise ar
oused nearly all of the guests on the
fifth floor, and many of them hur-
ried into the hall in their "nighties"
and pajamas to discover the cause of
so much commotion.
Their surprise was great when they
discovered that the desperate was a
mere boy, very dirty and very rag
ged, with valuable gold watch dang
ling from his pocket. Meantime the
night house detective arrived and the
roomers scurried back to their apart
ments.
Young Stopke had been noticed
hanging around the hotel for several
days previous to his "clean up" Re-

cape to the room of Charles II. An

TICKLES ANKLE TO LEARN
IF SKULL Is FRACTURED

st. Louis, Mo.-If you tickle your
ankle and your big toe turns upward
and the other toes spread outward,
your skull is fractured. DR.. C. G.
Chaddock, a member of the visiting
staff at the city hospital has tried his
discovery in 275 cases, and has not
failed once.
If your skull is intact the tickling
of the ankle will cause your toes to
turn downward and draw close to-
gether.
There's an exact spot on the ankle
where you must tickle yourself to see
if there's hole in your head. This
spot, DR.. Chaddock says, is half
inch above the sole of the foot on the
inside portion of the ankle.
Before Dr. Chaddock made his dis
covery, which is startling the medical
world, it was the custom to rub the
hands over the mans head in an ef-
fort to discover possible fractures.
But when patients are taken into the
city hospitals DR.. Chaddock tickles
their ankle with a little instrument
that resembles a pencil.
The spot on the ankle is closely
connected with brain through a CEN
tral motor track, DR.. Chaddock says
This connection is a Election. But
when the skull is fractured the brain
is exposed, causing a reflection. Toes
drawn upward and spread outward
denote reflection annd primarily, the
broken skull
Medical journals have written Dr..
Chaddock to send them detailed re-
port on his discovery. Babinsky was
the first to approach the present sue
cessful method. He tickled the sole
of the foot, but his plan failed in
many cases. Gordon compressed the
thighs and failed. Oppenheim tick
led the back of the calf of the legs
and failed.

ment made by Mrs. Elizabeth S.
Snowden, in explanation of her dam
age suit, brought against her neigh
Dor, DR.. Morton F. Dickinson of
Meria.
Mrs. Snowden is the wife of Henry
&c. Snowden, one of the RICHEST men
of Media, and member of the local
school board. The amount of mon
ey she demands is not known, since
the statement of claim is not to be
filed until tomorrow by her counsel,
Henry L. Broomall.
The plaintiff in the action, who is
one of the leading matrons of upper
Media circle, declared that recently
she was taking bath and had just
left the tub.
AS she was dressing, "Timmy" the
pet monkey of her neighbor, climbed
up the side of the house and pulled
open the blinds. Before Mrs. Snow
den know the monkey was there, it
sneaked up to her and bit a piece out
| of her ankle.
She kicked, she says, when she saw
the beast. 1t jumped away and out
OF the window. Mrs. Snowden ran
screaming into the hall and there
tainted. She was found unconscious
by her maid.
Efforts were made by the Snowdens
to induce the Dickesons to get rid of
their pet Mrs. Dickson, a promi-
nent member of the Media Woman's
club and stickler for rights, refus-
ed to part with "Timmy." She picked
up the monkey during a recent trip
to South America and regards his Wis
II to the Snowden home as just one
of his innocent pranks.
