TAUPE COLORED VELOURS HAT.
The motor maid will find the hat pic
tured, a reversible plece of headgear,
one of the most useful additions to her
winter wardrobe. The hat is of taupe
colored velours, and so flexible is the
brim that the waterproof side of the
creation may be turned inside out in
stormy weather.

No Scientists In Burglary,
“Scientific burglary absolutely does
not exist,” says M. Xavier Guichard,’
one of the foremost detective authori:
ties of Paris. And away at one sweep
of official truth vanishes the walking
wonder of housebreaking and safe
cracking against whose miraculous |
equipment it were vain to set up or-
dinary bolts and bars. Along with the
| sclentific burglar, too, we may place
{| in the gallery of the nonexistent the
{ social highwayman, the gentleman bur.
glar, the Arsene Lupins and all their
| class of gallant, indomitable offenders.
“What

people do not realize,” M.
continues, “is that burglars

Linguistic Whimsicalities.
The following are a few linguistic
whimsicalities: The Germans call a
thimble a “finger hat,” which it cer-
tainly is, and a grasshopper a “hay
horse.” A glove with them Is a “hand
shoe,” showing evidently that they
wore shoes before gloves, Poultry is
“feather cattle,” whilst the names of
the well known substances oxygen and
bydrogen are in their language “sour
stuff” and “water stuff.” The French,
strange to say, have no verb “to stand,”
nor can a Frenchman speak of “kick
ing" any one. The nearest approach a
Frenchman makes to It in his polite
