members of “the four hundred” of the
criminal world find representation in
this register, and an entire page is
devoted to each ijopdividual mentioned
Officially the volume 1s known as the

Bureau of Criminal Identification, an
institution having headquarters at
Washington, Data for the album,
which is literally a blue book, are sup-
plied by the police departments of
over a hundred cities throughout the
country, and it is to these departments
that the volumes are distributed.
Each branch of criminal endeavor
has a separate chapter in the book,
one telling of pickpockets, another of
forgers, and so on. At the top of each
page are reproduced two photographs
of a distinguished criminal—a profile
and full face, Below come name,

appearance and marks and scars. Ber.

Filed in the bureau are about 735,000

make money. The operation 1s no dir.

But one should exercise Just as much
care In one transaction as In the other.
Have nothing to do with those who
offer glittering opportunities to get
rich quickly, This will gave your
money. It may sound very nice to
say that one owns a thousand shares
of a gold, sliver or copper mine with
a par value of $10,000 and that cost
the holder only 850 or $100. But what
