 Burglar Under Bed

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. - Prosecutor John P Gray caught a burglar, 21 years of age, pretty and well dress ed. in his residence on Laurel ave nue, at an early hour The police believe that through that arrest they have found clews to a band of wom- en burglars whose depredations in the west end district have for sev- eral weeks puzzled them.
 Gray was wakened at about 2:30 by his wife, who said that she heard noise in the room. Jumping from the bed Gray landed in suitcase filled with silverware and jewels.
 As he lit the electric light he was surprised to note a small shoe beneath the bed He was about to kick it out of the way when he saw that it encased human foot. The arrest of Elizabeth Snyder followed. In the city court she pleaded guilty to charge of burglary.

Lie on Your Back to
 Rest Eating Muscle

LONDON-One of the questions which have lately been exercising the brains of medical authorities in London, Paris and New York is the treatment of tired patients. It has only recently been ascertained that this Is due to the eating muscle being out of order.
 In order to bring back vitality to this important organ, the patient must lie on a board with his feet about two feet higher than his head
 Tt is little short of comic,' said a Harley street doctor, ito see a long row of patients in nursing home with their feet cooked up in the air lying at full length along side each other.
 Its quite mistake to suppose that the most tired people are those who work their limbs most" con tinued the doctor Those who abuse the eating muscle are in real ity the Weary Willies.' It Is the people over forty that are most prone to the eating muscle trouble. They overwork the organ by eating rich meats at banquets and dinner parties. The eating muscle Is one of the most sensitive portions of tba human nrpaDism

Women May Smoke
 at Cost of Ideal

PHILADELPHIA. - Dr. Le Baron Russell Briggs, dean of Harvard university and president of Radcliffe College, hailed the college graduate as the coming woman in his address at the annual commencement exer cises of Miss Hills school.
 Dr. Briggs told the twenty nine girl graduates that the problem con. fronting the modern woman Is wheth- CT or not she shall be mans ideal or shall merely use her new freedom to copy all that is coarse and vul. gar in man.
 For instance, there Is no earthly reason why a woman should not smoke cigarettes if she wishes to do so." Dr. Briggs said. If men do it women are certainly entitled to the same liberty. But 1t is deplor- able that she should educate her self to such habits"

l latest Outside Sporting Dope

Is an ancient institution in the following:
 The ball game is indigenous to the Americas. Perhaps the first sim ian inhabitants found true sport in catching the cocoanuts tossed from the tall palms-certain 1t is that several thousand years ago the ball game had reached high state of de- velopment in the seventy cities scat tered throughout YuCatan. On clear ing away the matted forests en- veloping these marvellous ruins, ball courts were disclosed near the most sacred temples, and, from the ella borate hieroglyphics and photographs ornamenting the walls. much was learned of the complicated character of the sport. Centuries after the passing of these ancient Mayans came the first Spanish explorers, who found that younger race in contiguous territory the Aztecs, had revived the old pastime into a ma tional game with a stone God of Sport beaming on every court.
 The peculiarity of these early games was that the ball, when in play, was not thrown with the hands, but struck by the hip, around which the player wore a protecting pad of leather. At each end of the court was great stone disk with a hole in the center. and through this ori- flee the ball was driven before a point was scored. Very naturally a lively ball was used, since rubber trees dominated the forests.
 "Old chroniclers marvel at the skill and endurance of the players, for game was seldom won under four hours of constant play. Such exhausting contests, with dozen participants in almost constant ac tion. were not for amateurs, but professionals Thus, from the Aztec word olli, signifying bal came the word mollonqui one who plays ball for living"

Children Use More
 Words Than Parents

SACRAMENTO.-Ten-year-old boys have a better working vocabulary slang aside, than their parents and use larger number of different words. The adult, however, con- ceals his inferiority behind screen of technical terms which he picks up as part of his job.
 "A child in the elementary schools has a working vocabulary of from 3, ,- 900 to 5000 words" explained Miss Anna Nicholson, who is to compile a new book. An adult has rather fewer words in his everyday vo- cabulary. barring technical terms, which he learns to spell as he ac- quires them. A 3.0O0-word speller should meet the requirements of everyday life"
 The speller now in use contains about 15,0OO.

Ancients Played Ball.

Chicago.-"Pla-a-ary baw-aw-awl!' is not as new an expression of popu- lar impatience to have some one start something" as some people may think. Neither is playing ball for a living a strictly modern in- vention In fact, thousands of years ago, way down in Yucatan, impa- tient crowds sat around in ball parks. yelled themselves hoarse. beat one another in the back and threw their feather headgear into the are na in the enthusiasm of the moment, just as we are doing today. Also there doubtless were Ty Cobbs whose skill in batting" and fielding" was such that they could afford to hold up the management occasionally for a few more hundred jaguar skins a year by threats to quit professional ball and go to farming.
 Of course the game was not ex- actly baseball. But the point is that Is was a ball game, that there were regular ball parks or courts and that there were professionals who played the game for what there was fin it" for them. Mayhap the me- dium of exchange took the form of jaguar skins, pounds of cacao. fancy feathers, or what not, but 1t was money all the same, and they could buy with it at the club or in the market place as the case might be. They had their peculiar systems of slang" too. at least in some parts of the Americas. which. translated in English. means about as much to us as ours would to them; all of which is brought out by Franklin Adams in his story.
