The to a military prisoner in overalls facing a term in the federal penitentiary was too much for Adrian M. Mayer, twenty years old. He was arrested on a charge of impersonating an army officer and ca.h-ing had cheeks aggregating $2,000 in the last two weeks. Girls did it, he sobbed as federal officers relieved him of his uniform and handed him a suit of overalls. 1 saw all these other fellows beand all the girls looking saluted ing at them and I couldnt see why I couldnt be the same way. And I was harfng a great time before they caught me. Dont let my father know about me. I'm willing to go to Jail and do time, just so you dont say anything about it. My dad is a big man in Chicago and it would hurt his reputation. I sure made a hit while I was an officer. All the girls were crazy about me. It was this that made me keep it up. It was learned Mayers father is a wealthy clothing merchant of Chicago. Mayer was placed in the county jail in default of a $5,000 bond. Just before Mayer left headquarters, an attractive young woman, Miss Tuckers, wearing a handsome set of furs, entered. Oh, isnt the arrest of Lieutenant Mayer just too bad I she gurgled. The young woman said Mayer entertained her often. He gave her $r with which to buy Christmas gifts,' she said. They cost $85. He Why, he gave me this set of furs, she exclaimed. we bond used a them with for and the $100 $15 change for a Liberty paid ' little supper. Mayer told the police he had given the Southwest National Rank of Commerce a worthless check for $1,000 In payment for ten $100 Liberty Loan bonds. When the young woman left police headquarters she was without her furs. But that was not the worst When the awful nice boy was led from the holdover to the county jail he did not even look in Miss Tuckers direction. 1 What Would You Do With a Like This? Cherub Four enormous police officials sat back In their armchairs in station and discussed a little boy who stood before them. He had black eyes and rosy cheeks and a cherubs tapering chin, and with his chubby little grimy paw he spun a top on the table, which was almost above his reach. You know, Frankie, youre the youngest burglar in the United States and with a record just about as long as you are, Capt. James Corcoran told the little fellow. And there it was on the police books Frank Bambich, seven years CHICAGO. old, theft The booty was a $200 set of furs which the child had taken from the residence of Mrs. Caroline Reiehman. He pushed his little fists up into the air when they asked him how he did it. Opened the window like this, he said, with a serious interest in explaining his methods. That kids clever just like an old crook at his job, said one of his guards. Frankie was absorbed in spinning the top. "What did you do with the furs? he was asked. Sold em to a man for 20 cents. Who? Frankie hates to answer questions, and after several other inquiries which he replied to in a childish murmur he suddenly said, Aw, it was a man , who had a horse that was green. And that sort of answer is about all they can get from him. Someone told it that he recently took a geranium plant from a florists wagon standing before a house, climbed the steps of the house and pretended to be delivering the plant to its destination. While the housewife wondered who had sent the plant to her the boy squirmed in through the open door, stole $5 and two watches lying on a dressing table and skipped away. Frankie was proud of this achievement, too, as it was told. No one knows what to do with the little boy. Hes too little to keep in jail, sighed one of the policemen. He Is too young by three years to place in a corrective institution under the Illinois statutes. He will not stay in school. They tell of him that he prowls alone in alleys at midnight, before daylight, at noonday at any time, in any place, committiiig these crimes. Blase New Yorkers Stopped to Gaze at Venus Central Park West, was filled with noisy traffic and at the street entrance to the park a policeman was perspiring as he disentangled taxicabs, trucks, surface cars and park equipages in midafternoon when a young lady wearin not a stitch of clothes and apparently happy sauntered majestically down the steps of the main doorway of the Majestic hotel. Iler pink skin aglow and unfettered by raiment, the girl hesitated a moment on the second step from the bottom, survey! the busy street, and then boldly started across toward the park, near the entrance to which is a lake in which she would have made an excellent September Morn or AuTraffic immediately became more entangled. Chauffeurs gust Afternoon. and drivers stopped instantly to gaze. The policeman forgot about traffic and the perspiration and pursued the young woman. He reached her just as a maid ran from the hotel, and both seized her at the same moment. She was led back into the hotel while rude men laughed and shocked women hurried away, and there it was explained that she was Miss Gertrude YORK. Seventy-secou- d Holland.' She had been in the basemen- and a maid had prepared a bath for her, leaving her for a moment after removing her clothes. In that moment Miss Gertrude, who Is four, started for the park. Theatergoers Objected to Mr. Kirtes Reading The trouble with Alexander Kirtes, as that gentleman police station, lies in the system used in shooting the three Its into his head at the little red sehoolhouse near his boyhood home in Kansas. The reading R, he said, was by the audible method, which means thnt after one has read a newspaper in a subway or the captions in a motion picture theater ones mouth is exhausted, ones jawbone limp and ones neighbors absolutely glaring. That was what brought Mr. Kirtes, most unwillingly, to the police station along with a policeman and admirers. The ndmirers thought he had done something much holder than audilde reading, and their admiration melted away with them when they heard the policeman book the prisoner. l The screeeher at a prominent downtown theater where Mr. Kirtes spent his quarter had only screeched Itself half way through, when it became apparent that either Mr. Kirtes or those around him were going to get hurt. Every caption flashed upon the screen was read aloud in a highly satisfied sort of voice, as if the visitor were gloating over the ability to read. At the fourth reel there were mufterings, and at the beginning of the fifth someone tapped Mr. Kirtes on the head. He tapped back and the familiarity which followed brought the police.

The increase in the number of hogs for various states, as recommended by Misthe department, is ns follows: souri, 50 per cent. ; Alabama, SO ; Iowa, 25; Kansas, 23; Indiana, 20; Illinois, 20; Mississippi, 20; Arkansus, 20; South Carolina, 15; Ohio, 15; Kentucky, 15; Tennessee, 15; Maryland, 10; North Curoliua, 10; Michigan, 10; Nebraska, 10; West Virginia, 5, and Georgia,' 5. The increase needed for the entire country is 15 per cent, and is covered by the above schedule. Other states than those named should breed no fewer sows than last year. The result of those increases will be to provide sufficient animals to make the meat that is absolutely essential to the feeding of our armies. Pork Easy to Transport. Pork can be transported more readily and economically to troops in the field than can any other meat. Great supplies of bacon must go to the boys in khaki at the front. Unless now a larger number of sows are bred, the amount of meat we will require next year will not be available. The estimated number of hogs Is 00 less than it was a year ago in tills country; and in the face of this we need more hogs than ever before. How can we get them? By breeding sous at once. The exportation of pork products has increased since the war began and will continue to increase during the length of the war. The foreign countries are devoting their farming energies to food and feed rather than live stock production, but they must have meat and they must get a large part of this supply from us. Price Is Doubled. During the last three months the price of hogs in the United States has been, on the average, more than twice as much as the average price for the five years from 1911 to 1916. In view of the large crops of feedstuffs In sight, however, it believed that farmers will see the wisdom of taking every reasonable step to increase the supply of hogs and hog products. r Little Problems learn, employ In listening to some lit He toddler who wants tr talk.
