SMALL BOY
Believed to Have Stolen Jewels Val
ued at Ten Thousand Dollars

Philadelphia, July 9-Uncut dia-
monds and other precious stones val.
ued at $4,000 were stolen today from
the jewelry store OF f. ]. Hertz, locat-
cd in the central shopping district
The theft took place during the rush
hours, and is believed to have been
committed by seven-year-old boy,
who acted as a tool for professional
gem thieves.
Mr.. Hertz told detectives that two
women, two men and a small boy
came into the store and asked to see
some diamonds and sapphires. While
the men and the women were looking
a. the stones, he said, the boy, who
carried an umbrella, ran back and
forth behind the counter. The pros
pective customers finally decided that
none of the gems was exactly what
they wanted" and purchased a cheap
scarf pin.
Meanwhile the boy had disappeared
and an hour later box containing
the gems was found to be missing.
The authorities believe the boy con-
cealed the box in his umbrella and
slipped out of the store unnoticed.
Several other customers were in
the establishment at the time.

PREHISTORIC RELIC
Discovered In The Gravel Pit Near
DanviIls

One day last week, while blasting
at the gravel pit, James Logsdon's
crew of men uncovered a portion of
what is supposed to be tusk Of one
of those prehistoric monsters which
inhabited this part of the country CEN
turies ago.
1t lay fifteen feet below the surface
and has the appearance Of being a
chalky substance. When first uncov-
cred, it was soft, somewhat spongy
and similar to bones unearthed, that
have been buried a long time. 1t was
fifteen inches long, but being brittle,
it broke in a number of places, but
the largest piece was sent to James
Logsdon, Jr., who is attending sum-
mer school at Ohio State university,
who placed it in the hands of the pro
fessor of archaeological research for
nspection.-Twin City News.

suit badly, but she realized that to
attempt an exchange would result as
disastrously rs in the first place, and
she could Ill afford another new one.
Defects More Pronounced.
The longer Martha had the suit the
more numerous and pronounced be-
came its defects, until at last her pride
rebelled, and she refused longer to
wear the miserable parody. She said
she would much prefer to wear a
good old snit than a poor" new one.
For with the poor new one she was
conscious and ashamed when she felt
any one looking at her or her suit
Mr.. and Mrs. Weaver held a con-
sultation, after which Mrs. Weaver de-
clared that never again in her life
would she buy anything from a pic

"Amen," said John. 1--WE have had
our lesson. Had you bought that gar
ment from any Of our local merchants
and 1t proved unsatisfactory he would
have insisted on your exchanging it or
refunding to you your money"

That New Suit.
"What am l going to do about that
new suit / must have" said Martha
Weaver to her husband as he came in
from work one evening.
"Why is there any question about
that? Go to Hopkins & Co. and get
what you need. If you need suit get
it." answered her husband.
II have looked there" replied
Martha, "but they haven't anything
that want. just need a simple suit,
but I want good material, and it must
be neatly and well made, one that l
could use for almost any occasion. l
would prefer a ready made suit, but

Martha's Heart Sank.
Martha had little difficulty In ''look-
ing up" the catalogue, as the house
seemed full of them, and after critical
ly examining the suit pictures simple

corresponded with her idea of what she
wanted; the trimming looked neat and
of good quality. The price was salts
