BECKER NAMES WALTON.
Says Latter Was RosenthaPs Murderer
Gunner Downhearted.

Ossining, N. ", Feb. 26.As soon as
Charles Becker gets out of prison and
he seemed confident yesterday of his
ultimate release-he viii devote all his
energies, he says, to running down the
men who are responsible for the muir
der of Herman Rosenthal. The former
New York police lieutenant, who was
granted new trial Tuesday for the
Rosenthal murder, declared yesterday
that he could furnish the information
that would bring the real eulprits to
Justice.
"After l have done that" said Becker,
Il shall be willing to go back to the
police department, if they want me. If
they do not, / will enter some other line
OF work.
my case, at its present status, proves
beyond all doubt that you can't get
away with frame-up. The light is
bound to sift through sooner or later.

hearted because they, too, were not
granted a new trial. / feel sorry for
them. They thought their case was
tied up with mine. 1t was hard when
they were told the truth.
"The four men who got life insurance
policies from the district attorneys for
swearing away my life, may yet be ar
rested for the murder of Rosenthal. /

fired the fatal shot That's the reason
he got drunk before the killing. He
wanted to get his nerve up for the deed.
He needed courage to pull the trigger OF
his revolver.

Make yourself smile and you will feel
happier despite yourself, they say.
Make yourself look better and you will
feel better, despite yourself, is equally
true.
1t Is a fact not to be denied that the
woman who goes in search of employ
ment of any kind stylishly and beeom
ingly gowned, is twice as apt to be sue
eessful, other things being equal, as the
woman who is unattractively CARRIED.
And | think the reason for this Is not
wholly the impression that her attrae-
tive appearance makes upon her pros
pective employer
/ think the impression that it has
made on the woman herself is greater
reason. The self-confidence and better
address that her consciousness of her at
tractive appearance inspire in her have
more to do with her success than the
pleasure or admiration they may inspire
in him.
Hot weather is a foe to exertion OF
any kind, but even here | think the close
relationship between attractive appear
ance and attractive feelings holds good.
You don't believe it?
Tell me, truly, when you really felt
the better-the hot day when you
dropped around all day and in limp,
ugly rag of a gown, because it was the
thinnest thing you owned, or the day
you dressed up in the afternoon in a
slightly less slimpsy but decidedly more
attractive gown?
A doctor friend of mine was treating
a nervous prostitution patient who was
wearing mourning She was a pale, thin
woman, and looked thoroughly unattrac-
tive and dowdy in her black gowns.
IF l could only get that woman to
leave off black and buy herself half a
dozen pretty frocks, and fix herself up
to look attractive, I'd have her half
cured" he said.
To be as attractive part of the land.
scape as she can, is certainly part OF
duty to those about her.
And considering the difference it makes
in her feelings, should say it was also
a part of her duty to Albany

debut as cabaret cer-barefooted.
At the sight of the pinkftootsies every
one cheered. As the shapely feet panied
after an encore, her husband, Edward
Stewart Richardson, took bottle OF

A passing waiter snickered at this sa-
cred process of fixing the feet. The
laugh angered Richardson, and he craped
the garcon's eye with terrible wallop.
Then the foot washing was resumed and

InGuctive and Deductive,

Deductive reasoning is from the
cry to facts, while inductive reasoning
is from facts to theory. Deduction is
sometimes mere dreaming, oftentimes
very foolish dreaming Gas in the case
of medieval scholasticism), while in
duction is the sane reaching out from
particular facts to general laws Gas
in the case of modern science) Most
of the things that have cursed man
kind have come as the result Of de-
ductive -easoning; while pretty nearly
ill that has helped men has been the

The ravages of war do little to i'm
