New York's Police Dogs Help in the War on Crime
NEW TOItK. New Tork's police dogs are having a large rnrt In cleaning
up crime In the I'latbush section of Brooklyn, and In making It a place
where women may walk the streets safely late at night without fear of annoy
ance. The vigilance and activity of
the dogs have done much to rid this
cozy settlement of detached houses
of tramps, Idlers, and criminals. The
dogs have also done much In River
dale, where several were dispatched
after a series of burglaries.
The police department Is devoting
considerable time to the serious train

Used In certain lines of police work.
There are V2 full-grown Belgian
and German shepherd dogs In the department, and to these may be added a
litter of nine German shepherd puppies which arrived at the kenuels recently.
A dog Is assigned to each patrolman. Every night the police go out to patrol
with the animals. The dogs wear large leather muzzles so that they may not
bite anyone, for they are powerful enough to tear a mac limb from limb.
While the policeman patrols the street la front of houses he sends the
dog to the rear of the dwellings to search through field, hedge and brush for
marauder or thief. On encountering a thief the dog's barklLg attracts the
policeman.
The nnlmals have their regular tours of duty to do, and are out on patrol
for seven hours at a time. Sergeant Illckey says the dogs when on these
tours cfte.i travel " or "0 miles, for while the policeman keeps to the high
ways the flogs investigate the countryside by running across lots for a dis
tance of 300 yards or more, first on one side and then on the other side of
the road.
Chicago Has Minnow Shower Covering Two Blocks

children began to find minnows their elders became excited and joined the
hunt. In yards facing School street along these two blocks more than five
dozen of the small fish were found.
Excited discussion developed as to how the minnows made their appear
ance. It was pointed out that the fishing season Is closed, hence the improb
ability of "the shower" being bait thrown away by some Izaak Walton. One
'man advanced the theory that the minnows were drawn up into the clouds
in some warmer clime and there held by density until their filmy conveyance
was driven northward to dissolve in rain over Chicago.
Others reminded that It was an indisputable fact, known to every boy,
that it rains little frogs.
Prof. C. L. Mitchell of the United States weather bureau was asked
about It.
"Bunk!" said he. "It doesn't rain frogs and It doesn't rain minnows. I
should say the fish got on School street just by natural finny affinity for

Iowa Man Bought Ticket for New York Hotel Room
NEW YORK. The next times James Reynolds Barry leaves his modern,
electric-lighted, corn-bearing farm near Red Oak, la., for a few quiet
weeks in New York, he will come here prepared to resist the luring advances
of young men who halt him on the
street and offer to sell him things.
Such a young man, with a sense of in
genious humor, sold to Mr. Barry a
room In the Claridge hotel for a week
for $10.
Armed with a check which the
young man said would admit him at
occe to a magnificent apartment, Mr.
Barry strolled Into the Claridge and
reai;este3 that he be shown forthwith
to his quarters.
As evidence of his right to the
room, he presented a small envelope of the type used to Inclose theater
tickets. The envelope was sealed, and the clerk, with a puzzled expression, tore
It open and brought to view a ticket to the Century theater which was some
thing like a week old.
Hamilton Burney, resident manager of the hotel, watched the proceeding.
"You bought that ticket on the promise of a room here?" he asked.
"Yes, sir," responded Mr. Barry. "I met this gentleman on the train this
doming, and be told me that because of the throngs la New York, It was
very difficult to get accommodations except at tremendous prices. He said
he had a friend who owned part of this hotel and who got his share of its
profits by renting a number of rooms In. It. lie sad he had some room tickets
and offered to let rne have one for a week for $10. I gave l.im the money,
and he sealed the ticket in this envelope. He looked so honest I never thought
to examine the ticket."
"It's a theater ticket," smiled Mr. Burney.
"Is It good for a show?" hopefully Inquired Mr. Barry.
"Not now."
"Oh, well," said the young man from Red Oak. "I got mine, but I nope
the folk buck home never hear of It," and he registered wearily.

CHAINS AND BAGS OF BEADS
War Seems LIVely to Stimulate a
Fashion That Never Really Has
Lost It Popularity.
Bead bngs und chains have never

the soldiers In hospitals are learning
to mnke them thy are likely to become
even more fashionable than they were.
People are gettiug tired of buying the
railia backets which the men rnase
with such skill and taste, but no wom

Jars That Have Held Jam, and Cream
Pots, May Ba Utilized for
tha Purpose.
Jam Jars and cream pots can be
made Into very pretty vases or plant
holders. First of all the Jars should
be of earthenware, as glass Is too sll
pery to work upon. First wash them
well, then let them dry. If the surface
Is at all rough, rub It down with sand'
paper.
Now take some oil pnlnt and brush
smoothly all over the Jar; a cream
color Is got by mixing the tiniest sit
of yellow with white paint; a dnfnty
pale blue by mixing a touch of blue
with plenty of white.
When the coat Is quite dry, stencil
round tho Jar a pretty design. Sten
ells can be bought ready-made and
only cost a few cents ; they last a long
time. Oil color Is simply dabbed

through the holes and the pattern Is
made. The coloring will depend upon
the choice of the worker; If the back
ground Is cream or white, the flowers
should be stenciled a pretty pink and
the leaves a delicate green.
Leave all to dry, then, if liked, the
jars can be varnished with clear var
nish. In mnny cases the nntural Jar
can be left without being covered, and
a pattern Just put on. .
Very pretty effects can be got by
covering the Jars with very pretty
wallpaper; this must be done with
care ; then, when the paste is dry, var
nish all over.
Really beautiful vases can be made
by covering cream pots with cigar
bands. These ornaments look most
costly affairs, the colors are so beau
tiful and rich.
Thus from odd Jars lying about can
pretty and useful articles be made,
suitable for the home, for bazaars, or
gifts to friends ; the cost Is very trivial
and the work Is easy and Interesting. ,
Jersey and Angora Sports Suits.
Jersey and angora make a splendid
combination, both light and very warm,
for winter sports. Both the Jersey
and the, angora may be had in any
color, and the resultant schemes are
very lovely. Green and brown are
good together In these materials, blue
and gray, or any color Jersey blue;
rose, buff with white angora for fin
ishing. These suits are made up verjs
simply, of course, with no decoration1
of any kind except, perhaps, a big
cape collar, huge pockets or large col
ored buttons down the front.
These are good for all kinds of
rough wear. Jersey and angora com
bined are for scarfs and caps, as they
have been for a long time in sweat
ers. Satin Frocks.
The vogue of satin fur frocks and
hats has led to a number of satin bags
and card cases. Even cigarette .cases
for the woman who Indulges in the
weed are to be had In satin. The satin
bags are generally embroidered, sou

bag which magnetizes attention is
trimmed with a fringe of small silver
bells which tinkle the owner's way to
popularity.

Filet Lace on Blouses.
New blouses show filet lace used ex

talns of California.
Tho engineering world has watched
with lutervat tha progrva of tho great
South Yulwi-Bear rlvur development,
which had It beglnuing In i'i under
authority from tho Culiforula atuto
railroad commistdon. At that time
the Pacific Oaa and Electric company
entered uHn tho construction of a
225-foot dam at Lake Spauldlng by
which It was proposed to bark up the
waters of the South Yuba river and to
transform Lake Spauldlng Into a great
storage reservoir of 43,500-acre feet
capacity.
This work Is again in progress and
Is said by engineers, to be the finest
enterprise In conserving national re
sources and In providing hydro-electric
power in great quantities that Ijns
yet been undertaken In tho West,
where this kind of motive force is rap
Idly taking the place of ateatn and oil
power.
The Idea of damming the waters of
the South Tuba at that point occurred
to electrical engineers many years ago,
but the great disaster of BXJfl and the
troubles that followed caused the
project to be temporarily abandoned.
The project called for the diversion
of water from the South Yuba at the
dam through tunnel and ditch Into
Bear valley, and for the construction
of a power house in the Bear River
gorge some nine miles below Lake
Spauldlng, at a point where a head of
1.375 feet wns obtainable.
From this It was proposed to utlllz
the water after Its release Into Bear
river several times over In Its course
through mountain and valley down to
the point of Its arrival at the City of
Auburn, some 47 miles below. The
fall of the water between the two
points being approximately 4.300 feet.
It was found possible to survey sites
for a chain of not less than seven
developments In all.
Altogether, the plans called for an
aggregate development of something
like lG2,00O-horse power. The work on
Lake Spauldlng was sturted In 1912,
and In the following year tunnel and
ditch work was begun upon the Chris
tian valley plant and also that ad
Jacent to the city of Auburn.
On Thanksgiving day, 1913, Vice
President John A. Brltton closed the
switch which sent the electric energy
humming along the wires from the
newly constructed power plant In the
Bear River gorge to the company's
main high-tension distributing sta
tion at Cordelia, 110 miles away. This
enormous hydro-electric development Is
fast nearlng completion, to be added to
engineering achievements ranking
with the Panama canal.
An Optimist.

Without warning a large lump of

the coal pile and landed squarely on

the fire as he -hopped about on one

Ancient Marriage Custom.
Westermarek, in his "History of Hu
man Marriage," says: " There Is not
a shred of genuine evidence for the no
tion" that general polygamy ever
formed a real stage in the history of
mankind. "Monogamy is by far the
most common form of human marriage.
It was so among the ancient people of
whom we have any tiirect knowledge."
And another authority states: "It
seems probable that from the first hu
man mating has tended toward
monogamic unions." As for marriage
laws, there Is little doubt that religious
sanctions are older than legal. In
Christian countries the marriage laws
are generally derived from the law
established by the Christian church In
the middle ages, which in turn drew
many of its rules regarding marriage
from the Roman civil law, and wns also
Influenced to some extent by Teutonic
Ideals. It ia worthy of note that the
Greeks and Romuns, in their history,
show little or no trace of polygamy.

TIME TO SAVE ONE'S MONEY
Mistake la Too Much a General On
In Neglecting the Praaant for
the Future.
I'reMiinahly every young man
knows, as a physical fact, that he can
do nothing next yvar which be cannot
In mime riegrm, do today. Ilu will not
grow wing or overcome the law 'l
gravitation or subsist without food,
But ho I always prefiguring a future
in which hi mliwl will operate differ
ently. Tho time will certainly come
when ho realize that thera U no f
tur, but only an Indefinite extension
of today. The Important question 1
whether that time will come early
enough lu life to do him any partlcu
lar good. '
A Insy mnn cannot possibly make
himself Industrious lu the future; or
a tippling man, sober; or an extrava
gant mail, economical. If It Is done
at all ho must do It at an Immediate
present moment at some "right now !"
No man ever saved a penny In the fu
ture, or ever will. He ha got to save
the penny In his hand at the moment
or he will be broke to the day of his
death, the Saturday Evening 1'ost In
sists. That Is clear enough to any
body who will think about It. To save
the penny In hand he must resist the
temptation to . spend It. Imagining
himself next year as resisting the
temptation to spetjd a handful of pen
nies will do htm the same good that
the drunkard gets out of Imagining
himself reformed next year. Every
year that he does not resist weakens
his ability to resist.
This spending business Is as much
a mutter of habit as tippling, it Is
within the knowledge of everybody
who has the ordinary circle of per
sonal acquaintances that, after a cer
tain time, the hian who lives up to
the limit of his Income which, about
nine times out of ten. means a little
beyond accepts that as a normal conf
dlUon and Just automatically spends
whntever he gets.
At twenty a man lives largely In an
Imaginary future. At thirty he seems
still to have fairly Incalculable tow
ers and opportunities to .draw upon.
At forty ho begins to realize what he
fully knows, probably, at forty-five
namely, that he has already spent his
future. In the sense thut ho has large
ly shaped and fixed It ; so that It will
contain nothing essentially different
from what he himself has already put
Into it.
If he can realize by thirty that he
Is siR-ndlng his future every day it will
be a good thing for him.
Cooking by Instinct
In the kitchen of an, old monastery
n Frnnce a group of British women,
ail of good education, are cooking and
scrubbing and washing up all day lung,
and they have been doing it for many
months. The way they cook potatoes
is a thing to write poetry about, and
the French soldiers who have eaten
them will tell you that they want to
go buck to that monastery, which Is
now a hospital, because the food Is so
good. Not only do those women cooks
of the educated classes cook well, but
they are economical.
Another English woman, who before
the war knew nothing about cooking,
is a past mistress in the art of making
apple dumplings, us many an English
soldier, as well as a few English sail
ors, will bear witness. Wheu asked
how she learned, she said that a
French friend of hers had lent her her
cook for 24 hours, and during that
time she hud made rapid progress in
many things. Then there was the
iiandy man about the ennteen, an Eng
lishman, who had lived in France for
many years. He taught ner a great
deal. But as to the tarts and the ap
ple dumplings, she must have learned
to mnke those by Instinct, for no one
has taught her how to make the paste
or keep the apples dry.
