We acknowledged our respectable

were eminently proper ourselves,

The piece Of candy duly appeared
and was pocketed by the young
thief, who next proceeded to pull
out his penny and pay a visit to an
other machine, where he repeated
the operation Thus he was not
long in acquiring, without the eX-
penditure of a single cent, a stock
Of candy sufficient to satisfy even
d small boys appetite.
His penny, with Its string at
tached, is now an exhibit in the
museum, for all such inventions
eventually get there, while their
contriyers go to prison. 1t is said
that the discovery of this method
of robbing the machines, which
ought to have been foreseen, led to
a fundamental alteration in their
design, rendering similar proceed
ings henceforth impossible
1t is well enough to smile at and
even to admire the ingenuity of
these criminal inventions. but the
lamentable fact exists that some
people of small moral sense admire
them to the extent Of wishing to
initiate them. 1t is useless. on that
account, to ignore their existence,
The true remedy is to show how
misplaced and, in the end, disas-
trous they are. And this is the

Please explain why oil poured on the

prevents the waves from forming
