WAS ELEGANT SCHEME, BUT
area& Detective Had Overlooked One
Possible Happening, and the
Witness Had Not.

There were just Is guests at Mrs
Hyphen Ramrod's party. She thought
1t would prove unlucky and when she
missed her $1,000 tungsten ring she
knew it was. She telephoned Sheer
luck Bones, the great detective, imme.
diately after the discovery and few
minutes later he arrived.
Ladies and gentlemen" he ana
nounced in his cold, clear toneA "a
tungsten ring worth $1,000 has been
stolen and one of you is the thief,
not to use q harsher word. Mrs by.
phen Ramrod wishes me to spare ths
culprit's feelings, inasmuch as he is
her guest. Very well. II you will
kindly assemble about the dining
table ! will cause the lights to be ex.

That will give the guilty party ample
time to lay the ring on the table. un-
der cover Of the darkness. Otherwise
I shall be obliged to search you all

O witness"
Mrs. Ramrod left and returned with
q passer-by, tall man with side whis.
kers and vacant stare. The grea,
detective waved his hand, the room
was plunged IN darkness and slowly
he counted fifty. At "9orty-eight" the
unmistakable tinkle Of tungsten
against wood was heard as the stolen
ring was tossed on the table. In.
mediately afterward there was a VIC

great detective turned on the lights.
The ring was not there. Neither
was the witness.-Detroit Free Press.

BALD HEADS AT PEACE TABLE
Many Diplomats Had Whlskers and
mustaches, but Lacked Hair
on Their Cranlum&

An amusing sidelight on the recent
peace conference at Versailles Il
thrown by q correspondent, who not
only reported the proceedings proper
but took notes regarding the hair
mustaches, boards and whiskers of the
peacemakers.
Two-thirds Of the delegates were
more or less bald. Perhaps some OF
them made up for this BY wearing
mustaches. Out Of 65 men who sat
round the peace table, all had mus
taches but ii.
Whiskers, on the other hand. were
not popular. Only three people wore
them, and by q curious coincidence
the names of all these three people
began with V. They were Venizelos
of Greece, Tandervelde of Belgium
and Fassitch of Serbia. The latter's
whlskers were particularly prominent
In regard to dress, there was less
formal attire than one might have
imagined. The English paid no special
attention to dress High hats and frock
coats, once combination that would
never have been sanctioned, were
quite popular; but there were some
countries which put all they knew int
their attire. These were, notably. tht
Japanese, and some of the South
American states,

at catching them. so driving on little
farther, we tied our horses and set
out across the field after them.
when we reached the hole, they
were all up over the hill chasing each

HAS HIGH PLACE IN HISTORY
Magellan Famed as Man Who Found
the Pacific and Completed the
Work of Columbus.

Four centuries ago Ferdinand Ma
gellan sailed from Seville, Spain, on
the voyage during which he discovered
the Pacific ocean, named the Straits Of
Magellan and opened the islands Of
the Pacific ocean to the people of Eu-
rope. His was the first circumnaviga-
ton Of the earth. Had he not been
tmbued with the desire to be the gov
ernor Of new world, in keeping with
the promise accorded him by Charles
" the great geographer might have
attained even greater heights. In
stead he died, before the three years
cruise was completed, while in battle
with natives Of group Of the Philip
pine islands. He had discovered them.
along with Ladrone and Guam islands,
and was intent on making them Span
fish,
The discovery OF America by Co
lumbus had not completely convinced
Europeans that the earth was round.
but the findings OF Magellan clinched
the argument He started with q crew
OF 270 men and five vessels, but the
one ship that survived the cruise only
took back a remnant of that party
Many died Of scurvy, and some fell
during mutinies and battles with ma
tves. Magellan added much to the
worlds geography. He outlined the
entire eastern coast Of South America.
His discoveries offered the SDaniardS
new opportunity, and they started to
further explore the Pacific. Spaniards
found and named California, after q
character In q Spanish novel. Then
for some unaccountable reason they
rested on their laurels.

The New Ace.

A pretty Philadelphia girl az q
Newport dance wore q rose-colored
gown of the new bareback" fashion
Very decollete in front, the gown
bodice in the rear opened in broad
V almost to the waist. There were
no sleeves 10 the rosecolored gown
on the contrary 1t was cut out under
the arms like the jerseys worn by ath,
letes. 1t had. to be sure, a dainty
wisp Of a train. but nevertheless the
f1imsy skirt was so exiguous that as
the girl whirled about the ballroom
to the wild strains Of the jazz band
1t was frequently possible to see that
her carriers had ruby buckles.

DR.. Seymour Oppenheimer of New

He says that this surgery for the

surgeon would engage.
But there are so many ugly faces
and their Identification would make
their owners happy, some surgeon the
