The theft was discovered by Mrs. Lewis Thursday, when she went to her home to show a friend through it While Major Lewis was away the house was closed and Mrs. Lewis was living at the Lincoln Apartments, Thirteenth and Locust streets. MJor Lewis has Just returned from the service in the army . So far no arrests hae been made. The theft was reported to the police late Thursday. Mrs. Lewis waited several hours after discovering it, In an effort to get in touch with her husband before she called in the police. The thlees left the house In a state of great confusion. They evidently took their time about the robbery: going Into every room, and Benrclflng every possible hiding place for valuables. Mrs. Lewis found the contents of bureau drawers scattered over" the floors of the 'bedrooms; trunks forced open and clothing strewn eeryuherc; even a phonograph smashed in the searcli for aluables. Among the articles taken were a number of pieces of Sheffield Bllver, Mrs. Lewis's whole collection. Other large and small pieces of silverware were stolen. Two overcoats, three suits of clothes and half a dozen pairs of shoes were carried off by the thlees. From the linen closet they took fine tablo linen, tablecloths und napkins. Tho wine closet was broken open and u quantity of fine liquors taken. There was nothing, to Indicate v. hen the theft took place. Apparently the thiees had forced their way into the house by prying open a shutter In the back kitchen.

NORMS Vaccination Not Absolute Im munity as Army Men Be lieved, Colonel Here Says Surprise was expressed oer charges concerning typhoid fever In the Ameri can Expeditionary Forces today by Col onel George W. Norrls, noted medical authority. He was consultant on General Persh ing's staff during tho war. The charges are contained In a bulletin Issued by the public henlth service In Washington. Colonel Norrls spent eighteen months In France, remaining there until after the armistice was. signed. Ho went oer, with the runic of major, as medi cal officer of the Pennsylvania Hospi tal Base Unit No. 10. Later he was called to army headquarters nnd nttach ed to the staff as a consultant. My experience did not lead me to believe that there was a large amount since Mr. Kendrlck Is proud of his gifts of tj phold In the army," said Colonel and frequently displays them nt the re N"'s' I quest of friends.

I was 0f diamonds and presented by "Buffalo not there, but I, talked to arlous men um wno wye. ah are agreed mat tne luin nnd flies were terrible. These condi tions could not be avoided and perhaps In part explain thn spread of typhoid. I cannot say from my own observa tion that thero was carelessness on tho part of tho medical men. Of course, thero may hne been individual Instances of carelessness, and I have no doubt thero were. "I Baw more cases of tj phold In the British than in the American army. This Is explainable because, vaccination was merely optional with the British, while It was compulsory with us. "The army's experience on the Mexi can border led medical men to believe that vaccination gave a largo degree of Immunity from the disease, so largo a degree of immunity that It would re quire a very virulent Infection, such as from a badiv polluted well, to give a man the dlsenso. ;Every one lecognlzes, however, that tne immunity given by typhoid vaccine is not absolute In the sense that smallpox vaccination Im munity Is absolute." The report Issued by the public health service ascribed to; the surgeon general of the expeditionary force the charge that there had been many epidemics of Uphold and paratj phold among the troops, especially In the last months of the war, and that medical otlicers had been grossly careless' In preventing the development and spread of the disease.

The same order contained the infor mation that the extension of the j car round tourist rales to Ocean City. Sea Isle City and Stone Harbor Is still under consideration.

Frecland Kendrlck, for the reason that Mr. Kendrlck keeps his col lection In his safe at City Hall. A desire to obtain tho diamonds mak ing up pins and emblems that hae been presented to Mr. Kendrlck during his occupancy of various Masonic posi tions Is believed to hae actuated the thieves In breaking Into his home ,at 1120 Duncannon aenue, Logan. The Kendrlck home Is next door to the dwelling of Superintendent of Police Robinson, who lives at 1127 Duncannon avenue. The Kendrlck collection Is well known, Some of the emblems aro so heavily laden with precious jewels as to pre clude their being worn with any degree of comfort. Should the register array himself In them all at one time they Institutionalize The very latest thing is "institutional advertising." It is even gaining in favor over "merchandising" as a word with which to conjure. Institutions are not created offhand, even with the copious use of printers' ink. You remember Noovo Reech Porkbar who patron izingly asked the English gardner how he got such excellent turf "Oh we rolls it and we brushes it for, say two hundred years, and there you are, sir!" was the reply. The reasons that underlie a great business success usually furnish the best material-for its advertising. Colgate is great because of the recognition by the public of quality and service, and not because the house was founded in 1806. The house of great accomplishment is usually so intent on greater conquests that it avoids the seduc tion of "Board of Directors' copy." With1 quality service and time any advertised product will make of its maker, an institution. Advtrtuinz space in the Butterick publications is for sale by accredited advertising agencies.
