GRAFT NO PLACE
TO HIDE MONEY

No burglar would dream OF
searching the ashes under a
crate In q coal stove for money.
That's why Mrs. George Wood, OF
Summit, n. j., stuck sl35 in
bills under the crate in her
kitchen range when she went to
Newark yesterday.
Few persons remember where
they've hid Vsluables.
That's why Mrs. Wood lighted
fire when she returned.
Nobody fails to eventually re.
member things they shouldn't
have forgotten.
That's how Mrs. Wood came TO
look for the s135 a few hours
after she had started the fire.
II there hadn't been four quar-
ters and ten coppers mixed up
with the greenbacks, Mrs. Wood
wouldn't have found anything.

Say New Turkish Policy
TO Foreigners Will Go
Into Effect Tomorrow

WASHINGTON, Sept. 3o.--So far
as officials here know, Turkey will
carry into effect its announced in
tention to abrogate all capitulations
granting extra territorial rights to
foreigners in Turkey tomorrow. Sec
retary Bryan said the Porte had re-
ceived in friendly spirit the notiii-
cation that the United States would
reserve the right Of future discus
sion of Turkeys action, but had not
indicated a postponement of the
operation of the decree.
A close watch will be kept over
the manner in which Turkey exer-
cises the new full sovereignty over
her dominions. The cruiser Tennes-
see, now at Falmouth, England, will
take a station off the Turkish coast
for the present and the cruiser North
Carolina is under orders To proceed
to Brindisi. Italy, not far from
Turkish waters.
