Shopping Adventures
Of the Wise Family

WELL" said Mr.. Wise, you have
all shopped except me, / suppose it's
my turn today" YES replied Mrs.
Wise promptly. "and don't forget to buy
that new chandelier for the parlor"
Mr. Wise tied a string around his fin
ger and reminded by this, he turned
into the show rooms OF the Whining
ton Gas Company. There was a large
variety of gas chandeliers to select
from, with pendant shades hanging
like a cluster OF flowers, in glass OF
amber, green, red, crystal, or opal
escent colorings Pretty for a hall
was an Oriental effect, where the dark
red cylindrical shades were enclosed
in wrought brass. But. Mr.. Wise
chose brass chandelier with pendant
cut crystals surrounding the lights.
The light reflected brilliantly from
their prismatic surfaces, and the Wise
family had an antique pair OF glass
candlesticks with crystal pendants
which would be effective with the
chandelier.
At Montgomery's jewelry store, Mr..
Wise picked up neat shaving
set, consisting of brush and cylindri-
cal soap box, in a leather case, very
convenient for use at home and for
travelling
At Corners leather store he bought
two large Thermos bottles. The Wise
family are much given to picnics and
! excursions in summer, and Mr.. Wise
is an ardent automobilist, so they are
often placed where it would be mos
convenient TO have hot or cold drinl
right at hand.
| Stopping in at the Walkover Shol
Store, Mr. Wise bought pair Of thos'
stout and reliable shoes; getting
pair that We're perfectly comfortable
I'm spite of their brand newness.
At O'Donnell's he bought one of the
new spring hats, soft gray felt, and
also cap for automobiling.
At the ID. Ross and Son store he
laid in new supply of neckties, some
of which, of the hand-knit variety
we're so pretty that his daughter Eli
nor decided to borrow them for her
own wear with her tailored shirt
waists.
The Wise family have a Columbia
Phonograph. which has been a plea
sure all the winter, ]. Herbert says
IL seems Just like one Of the family
Mr. Wise went to the Columbia Phon-
ograph store and bought dozen new
records, some Of this seasons grand
operas to suit his daughter, and the
latest marches, musical comedy songs
and ragtime to suit himself.
Then. mindful Of another request
from Mrs. Wise, Mr. Wise went into
the NJ. Megary and Son Company
store and bought an antique oal
table for the hall Il was a table
that was not only artistic in its sim
pie and plain lines, but easily duste'
and had no elaborate carving e
catch and tear the clothes Of th'
passerby in their rather narrow hall
Also, II was a table that would stan'

the elegant redoubtable thief of romance exists only in the newspapers. Bands are generally recruited while undergoing pun ishment in prison, and more often man age to rub shoulders with the wealthy classes through the introduction of femi- nine accomplices rather than by any per- sonal talent or attraction. with which few are ever endowed. It is generally through the women that the police finally get on the track of criminals. although as long as they believe that a man is true to them these women can never be tempted by any sum to betray criminals.
 The moral is that these gentry depend for success principally on the accident of being foreigners and that they could never impose on their own countrymen.
 It is true that it is best to set thief to catch a thief it is evident that it re- quires a gentleman to tell rent'o'nr-' at sight, and one of the most astonishing instances of these truislms occur ..,.
 ly in Paris when an eX-chief detective of New York allowed himself to be robbed in Paris of $500o by the "conf- dence trick" by two pretended gentle men'' in the most conventional fashion.

can pass for gentlemen, for they al- ways show palpable signs of vulgar or igin. The best of them are only about the social rank of a groom of one of the big hotels. and more ordinarily they are on a level with stable help, servants, chauffers, or workingmen.
 A few minutes conversation on sub jects other than racing and gambling is sufficient to betray the shallowness of their pretended acquaintance with so- ciety.
 Dr. Bertillon declares that his own de- tectves on duty at the railway waiting rooms, bank halls. etc, generally recog- nize any individual likely to be arrested in the next half hour by some offense against taste in dress or manner.
 It would be most interesting to learn how Dr. Bertilon taught his agents, since any expensively dressed glib-tongled man, especially if a foreigner, seems capable of imposing indefinitely on even such presumed experts as hotel managers and servants. But an outsider never de- ceives, even for five minutes, any of his own countrymen, and this is perhaps the

Bertillon on Crooks

From the Paris correspondent of the New
 York Times.
 Dr. Bertillon. the criminal expert. who is to head the school of detectives to be established by NJ. Lepine, the prefect of police, has written to Le Matin to say that, according to his experience. society holds no professional crooks, and that the stories by certain French novelists about humane, generous. criminals of re- fined breeding and good birth are fakes in the very nature of things.
 There undeniably exists, he says, among the gentle classes the idea that if they chose to turn thieves they would excel in that profession; but let any gentleman or lady under this delusion walk into a shop in the Rue de Ia Paix, select s5900 worth of jewelry, and try to obtain 1t without payment, and they would quickly discover their mistake.
 Dr. Bertilon declares that he is sur prised that habitual International robbers

 After dsmissng contemptuously the idea of gentleman thieves, pr. Bertillon remarks that each one has his speciality. The worst jailbird will succeed in duping a jeweler whete a genuine aristocrat would fail. because formerly he was him. self in the trade and knows exactly how to deal with men like his former masters, creating a momentary confidence and ex- citing cupidity by saying the right thing and avoiding saying the wrong one. The bank swindler who forges cheeks and otherwise profits by knowledge of banking ways is almost always a former bank clerk, like Gallay, the Frenchman, who comes out of prison this month Another curious fact stated by Dr. Ber- tillon Is that, however carefully dressed externally international thieves may be- it is usually found that they are far
 from irreproachabe as soon as their clothes and boots are stripped. as'-any- body in the anthropometrical service can testify,

 BipLANES.


 Here are shown photographs of the recent review of the French army fleet of aeroplanes, the first of the kind ever held. Mir. Alexandre Millerand, Min ister of War, reviewed the aeroplanes after the aviators had completed their work in the grand army manoeuvres. Seventy-two aeroplanes in nine squad rons were gathered together
 The aeroplane squadrons were drawn up in line before their portable canvas hangars, much resembling tents. Much attention was attracted by the lifting qualities displayed by the Maurice Far man biplanes. Among the monoplanes the Deperdussins, flown by Jules We drines in winning the recent intcrna- tional race at Chicago. were much ad- inired.

 Politics would appear to be among the healthy professions, judging by the num- Der of members of both houses of par lament who have passed the age of three score and ten. The lords, whose legis- lative duties are less strenuous, have, however. larger number of veterans in their ranks than the commons. as there are 33 peers who have reached 80 and over, while only 10 members of the lower house have seen their 10th birthday.
