gust Belmont, jr., yesterday revealed
that an extraordinary burglary mad
been committed in the Belmont home
at Bayshore, Long Island, by burglar
of remarkable skill in lock picking.
The theft occurred on September "a,
1915. That night late caller. unsn-
nounced and unanticipated, slipped
noiselessly upon the gallery Of the
Belmont home, near Bayshore. He had
no key, but the locked front door
stayed his progress only a moment.
Through the dim hallway, possioiy

nm the broad staircase his soundless
stems carried him Straight to the
door of Mrs. Belmont's boudoir he
went. A steel wire in keyhole need
make no sound if manipulated with
sufficient skill The stranger passed on
into the chamber. Some time later ne
departed, thoughtfully relocking doors
behind him.

Experts. renewing their examinations
of the house, were forced to the opin-

of the cleverest lock pickers in the
business. But why the other three
Jewel cases-each OF which contained a
fortune-which were in the room and
easily accessible, were not disturbed is
a mystery,

consisted Of fifteen American business
men under the Craftsmanship Of W. W.

psny Of New York.
In that portion of the report which
was made public yesterday the com
mission reaches the conclusion that
France and the United States are not
likely 70 be serious competitors IN the
world market after peace is declared,
because their strength lies in entirely
different directions. The report says;
American manufacturing practice
is the result Of great, uniform and
steady home demand from one end Of
the country TO the other. Our manu-
faeturers export only their surplus
products, and they can only export
them as they are, for they cannot
profitably make smaller amounts Of
merchandise differing from their usual
output. Wherever the American manu-
facturers turn out product which as
il stands. meets the requirements Of
foreign trade they are very strong.
Certain typical American specialties,
such as sewing machines. cash regis
ters and typewriters, fear no rivals.

Mark Twain as a Samaritan.

Here is new Mark Twain story that
sounds as if it actually might have
happened.
1t dates back to the period when
Mark was living in Hartford, on the
next block from Harriet Beecher Stowe
and her husband, Professor Stowe.
One cold and blustery winter morn
ing, after an unusually heavy snow
storm, neighbor, meeting Mark on
the street. slowly blowing his way
through the drifts, with a corncob pipe
in his mouth and a snow shovel over
his shoulder, asked him where he was
bound.
"Oh, just around the block-an err
rand of mercy" drawled Mark. remOv-
ing the pipe from between his teeth
and pointing over his shoulder with
the stem of it. Mrs. Stowe has just
telephoned me that Professor Stowe is
under the weather this morning, and
I'm on my way around there to shovel
him out."-New York Times.

Keeping on the Sheets.

Keeping baby we'll covered in his crib
throughout the winter nights is prob
lem that is the despair of many par
ents. He will cast the coverings from
him, and the ordinary metal clasps de-
signed to prevent it usually rust to
pieces through being chewed or are
eaten outright in a couple of weeks
The ideal method is to fasten the COW
ep firmly at the foot of the bed and at
tach strong cables to the two upper
corners of the cover. These cables are
in turn attached to the tails Of two
elephants, who stand at the head Of
the bed, pointing away from it. Just
O. couple of inches beyond reach OF
the trunk of each elephant stands q
parent with red apple. The elephants
stand throughout the night straining
forward to get the apples, pulling tho
cables taut and keeping the covers
drawn tight over the baby.-New York

duced milk upon succulent feed; she
will soon be returned to the barn where
she will spend the greater part of each
day. 1t should be the aim of every
keeper to see to it that his cows are
housed rs comfortably as possible and
provided with goodly quantity and
variety of palatable feed that will nour-
ish her abundantly and help her pro-
duce an even flow of milk.
The right kind of a COW will repay
with interest every cent invested fol
her comfort-for warmth, light, venti
lation, and feed. If she is not com,
fortably housed her returns will be
cut down in proportion to her discom-
fort.

The MacTavish was not mean man.
No; he just knew the value Of three

So when the Mac,Tavish developed

an alternative he hung about for day

Robert w. Chambers, the novelist, is
an authority on Chinese porcelains.
His New York house contains many
beautiful old Chinese vases, and his
researches have even given him a con-
siderable knowledge of the Chinese
tongue.
At dinner in Newport Mr.. Cham
bers took in beautiful young girl who
asked him to admire her Chinese Cir
die.
Its a superb girdle," he said, land
the motto embroidered ON it is superb,
too-superb, but rather unusual for a
young American girl to sport"
"Oh," she said, you know Chinese,

CUTTING HAIRS FROM UDDER
From Sanitary Standpoint and Com
fort to Cow While Being MIXED,
FiIaments Are Detrimental.

1t is not at all uncommon among
dairy COWS to find the udder covered
with thick growth of long hair, which
may be of some protection to the uddel
in some respects, but from sanitar!
standpoint and a comfort to the COW
while she is being MIXED, these nair<
are detrimental. Under the usual farm
conditions this growth of hair is com
monty covered with filth, and even il
well-kept diaries this hair, unless kept
well clipped, will collect more or less
dirt and trash.
In many cases, too, these hairs will
persist in falling into the milk pail
TO prevent occurrences such as these
the udder should be clipped closely al
least twice each year, and in this way
prevent the accumulation Of filth.
