"There." said detective, whoss name la
household property throughout the country,
Is on of the finest detectives allvs today."
His companion followed the nod of the
speaker's head, and found that It led to a
man meJilng-entriee on the hotel register.
What," spoke up the second man. In
credulously, "that hotel clerk a fine
detective?"
"That's exactly what I mean," was the
reply, "All hotel clerks are more or less
proficient detectives, because It Is an un
changeable principle of every reputable
hotel In America that every man who writes
his name down In Its register la a suspect
until he prove himself O. K. But this man
Is the cream of them all."
And then there came out some of the
clever pieces of detective work that the
clerk had done, the like of which occurs
In any big hotel with something like the
precision of clock work, despite all the
guards that a hostelry employs to keep
away all but reputable and respectable
guestg. .
Piece at Wlra Coavlcted Thief.
The first story had to do with a benev
olent old man with the pious look of a life
long preacher and a long, flowing white
beard of the patriarchal type.
This man had been a guest at the hotel
half dozen times before he came In on
this particular occasion and registered, and
long since the eye of suspicion had been
withdrawn from htm. Bo- when he asked
for a room he wag assigned to one that
communicated with a regular boarder, and
no more was thought of tne matter.
That I, the clerk dismissed the benevolent
looking guest from his mind until early
the next morning when the boarder V'ame
rushing up to the desk.
!'T3 been robbed during the night of
$200 In cash," he exclaimed excitedly. "It
was in a pocketbook In my trousers, which
were on a chair when I went to Bleep.
When I felt for the pocketbook this morn
ing when I put on my trousers, which were
folded as I left them. It was gone."
The clerk hastened to the room with the
boarder. He looked at the front door; It
had not been tampered with, and no one
could have got In through the windows,
for neither ledge nor fire-escape ran by
them. Then the clerk rnt to the com
munication door and tried it. It opened
and the key, to the certain knowledge of
the clerk, had not been oat of the office
for weeks.
Instantly there flashed Into the clerk's
mind the benevolent old gentleman. "But
It couldn't have been that old preaoher,"
he told himself. ,
Nevertheless ha got down on his hands
and knees and began looking carefully
about the floor. For fifteen minutes he
carefully looked and ran his hands over
the carpet; then suddenly he straightened

"It was the fellow who slept in this room
last night," he said, as be held tip a piece
of wire bent something like a Z, with on

The nan whoa, money had bean stolen

"WhyT" h asked.
"That," was the reply, and the clerk

quickly as he could the clerk wont
down stairs to look for his man, but, as he
suspected, he had flown In ths night. All
he could do wax to lock the little piece of
wire In the office safe, tell the boarder he
was sorry that he had sustained a loss.
notify the police authorities and wait.
A few days later the chief detective of a
railroad running Into tha city walked up
to the hotel clerk.
"I've traced a benevolent old chap with
a long whit beard to this hotel," he said.
He's one of the country's famous sneak
thieve and we're after him for lifting our
patrons' baggage in the waiting room."
The clerk told his experience with the
wily patriarch and the upshot of the ex
change of confidence was that the hotel
and the railroad each offered Jo pay half
af the expense Incurred la running down
the man.,
The chase occupied a year; then one
day the clerk received word that the thief
had been caught In Philadelphia and was
now In the local Jail. Thither the clerk
went and Identified th man, and to the
court house he went two week later, and
on the witness stand told what he had
found in the room that the prisoner had
occapied on the night of the robbery, and
his testimony was corroborated by a ifltle
piece of twisted wire and the evldenoe of
the robbed man.
The little piece of wire, that only a per
son who waa a born detective would have
discovered and recognised a being of great
value, did the business. The Jury said
"guilty" without leaving th box and- the
Judge sentenced the' benevolent looking
man to seven year In prison, where he Is
now.
Tabbed a Rail.
This sams clerk not long ago made a life
long friend of a rich lumberman from Mich
igan by securing to him the return of a
pocketbook that contained 220,000 In ne
gotiable paper.
The westerner, who was In the habit of
carrying large sums of money on hi per
son and thinking nothing aboat It, wai
writing In th hotel' writing room when
he found himself short of paper. Leaving
his things on the table, he walked over to
the desk, got another supply of stationery.
and went back to his chair, only to find that
his big red pocketbook, which he had
thoughtlessly used as a paper weight, was
mlsalng.
Th clerk was notified.
"My Ood," gasped the westerner, 'If
don't get that pocketbook back I'm
goner."
When the victim had calmed down some
what the clerk got him to make out a Hat
of th paper, and all th bank were noti
fied to stop payment on them. ,
Then the clerk began looking for the rob
ber. By a little quiet Inquiry among the
hotel attache he learned that a man who
was an habitual "chair warmer" of th
hotel had been loafing In the writing room
shortly before th robbery had been re
ported. But now he was nowhere In fight.
The clerk went to police headquarters.
told his story and his suspicions, and got a
roan astgned to loaf about the hotel until
the "chair warmer" should turn up again.
Then he wa to wait his cus from the clerk,
For three days tbey watched In vain for
the suspect, but on the fourth day h
turned up, aa ths clerk thought he would,
lu order to keep suspicion from falling on
him. and took his accustomed seat In th
writing room. Pretty soon the loafer, hav
Ing been courteously treated as usual by ths
passing hotel employes, got up and started
easily for the door. Then it was that
man who had been seated wlt'hia virion of
the clerk, approached the loafer and tapped
him on the shoulder.
"I want you to come with me." he said.
"Tea," added th clerk, as he Joined them.
wa want you to com up to police beid
quarter and tell us whst you've don with
that $-0,ono worth of negotiable paper you
took from the writing table In this hotel
last Thursday."
The man stoutly protested his Innocence,
and even when he wsa taken before the
chief of the detectives he still tenaciously
held that he was guiltless.
At last the chief turned to the clerk; "I
believe you got th wrong man this time,"
he said.
Th Blair Worked.
But th clerk waa undeceived.
"Chief," he said quietly, "I've helped
you out several time when you've come
to the hotel In search of clues, and now I
want one more chance." He turned to
the suspect. "Look here," he .said,
"you've got a queer pocket Just Insld your
coat; and Its mouth Is big enough to let
you slip things that lay on table Into it
quickly; and it' deep enough to hold big
objects like long pocketbooks."
For the first time the man blanched Just
a trifle.
"Search him." said the chief to two as
sistant. They did, and Just inside the coat they
found Just such a pocketbook aa th clerk
had described. Also, In a pocket on the In
side of the man's waistcoat they found the
pocketbook with not a single paper missing.
"Well," said the chief, turning to the
proprietor of the hotel and the Westerner
ho had entered the room on being noti
fied of the discovery, "what shall w do
with him?"
The Westerner waa overjoyed at receiv
ing back his papers. '
"Do with him?" he repeated. "Lord, I've
already spent four more days In this town
than I meant to. Don't keep me here to
testify against him, fof heaven' sake."
"Well?" aald th chief, turning to the
proprietor. "
I don't care to make any complaint,"
the hotel man answered, for It Is a part of
th buelnes not to let th publlo get hold
of auch things, even though they are un
avoidable In the best of houses.
The chief turned to the culprit.
"The next train leaves for the east at
" be said, "and it' 4 now. You go home.
to meet me at the station In time to catch
the train. I want you to go east and to
tay there. If you don't meet me" and
the chief finished with a Significant click of
his Jaws.
That night he pleasantly shook hand
with a companion who got aboard an east
bound train. .Then the chief called on his
friend, th Clerk.
"How in thunder did you know he had a
queer pocket in his coat?" be aaksd.
The clerk was modest.
I didn't," he replied. "I Just thought he
ought to have one, to be able to slip a big
pocketbook off a table in broad daylight
without anybody noticing him."
A Case af Remarkable Memory.
This clerk I known to many a detective
for his 'remarkable memory of faces as
well as for bis ability to recognise a man
the first time he ha seen him by means
of a description, or even a fleeting glimpse
of a photograph.
A detective in another city once wrote
to the clerk:
I enclose a pretty poor photograph of
'Slim Pete,' the safe blower, who Is coming
your way. He wouldn't keep still when
we took It. He trie to appear the gentle
man when traveling and he may therefore
try to put up with you. If he does, do me
the favor of nabbing him."
The clerk got a local detective assigned
to sit on a sofa placed on the opposite side
of
the offloe so that It faced the desk.
Here the avm of th law lolled until th
afternoon of. th second day, when a
stranger, every Inch the well groomed man
of the world, walked up to th desk with
an easy air and began registering. He was
Just reaching out to get the key from the
clerk when the latter raised a hand as If to
reach for the letter box back of him. It

If you are skeptical aa to th significance
of facial signs throw your prejudices aside
Just for diversion' sak and study the
fsce about you. Study your own as well.
You will learn that whereas no one fea
ture should be taken aa significant of an
individual's character the weakness of an
undeveloped feature may be balanced by
the strength of th remaining feature of a
face. '
Beginning with the chin, which Is an im
portant feature, you will soon agree that a
weak chin Is a poor enough Inheritance. I
hav yet to Bee a weak-chlnned man or
woman who .has ever done really great
work.
If with a weak chin there Is also a re
treating forehead It is useless to look for
a very great mental capacity.
I have seen retreating chins that belonged
to men of powerful intellect, but they were
big chins, and the subject had always a
big no and a fine head.
, The Prettiest Chla.
The prettiest chin In the world, not the
strongest, is the "cleft" chin. It Is found
often in sweet-tempered, mirth-loving,
easy-going women, fond of approbation
and endowed with artistic, tastes. The girl
with a cleft chin will not have an atom
of malice in her disposition. She loves to
be loved and Is here apparently to be a
pet. Men love her and so do women, and
her entire existence is bounded by her af
fections.') She isn't always constant, by
the way, but she is neves vicious.
The girl with the talkative chin has been
a magpie from babyhood. She is good
natured but rather Inconstant, changes her
mind often about people and things.
She loves a Joke, Is usually a mlmlo and
often haa a very musical speaking as well
aa a singing voice. She is romantic, and
does not save much money, and she does
love to hear the sound of -her own words.
The strong ehln of self-control is rather
broad and square and announces great
constitutional strength and unlimited will
power. The woman with this chin, unless
her other features are singularly weak and
Inefficient, will accomplish anything she
make up her mind to do. She know no
such word as failure. She la a loyal friend
and a bitter enemy.
Never a Baakrapt.
The man who marries her win a treasure,
but he will lose her If he deceives her.
Th thrifty chin is long and rather nar
row, and projects more or less. Its pos
sessor always has aomethlng In reserve.
She I never financially bankrupt and
mentally aha never exhaust her ator for
the benefit of her audience.
Let a man whe courts a girl with the
money-making chin never fear for the fu
ture. The tendency of the money-making
chin la toward avarice, rnerefor a cloe
listed man should avoid them, for the union
of two of theae china would be apt to result
In a pair of misers, to aay nothing of th
effect upon succeeding generations.
Th long, narrow chin I known "as "ob
stinate." Olrls with this type of chin are
physically rather fragile, mentally, self
willed. They are very loyal about love af
fairs and cannot be bought..
Money the narrow-chinned girl under
stands Is essential to comfort, but no
amount of money could win her hand from
the man to whom she haa really given her
heart.
Thla chin denotes obstinacy In afoVlr of
friendship and affection as well aa In other
matters.
If, according to a well-known writer, th
chin is small, weak or retreating, we do
not look for much love, devotion or force
of attachment, broad or generous social and
domestic instincts, or vital power. Love ex
presses Itself In many ways. In eye and
mouth, but pure, true, warm vigorous love
la radically Impossible with a defective
chin.
Th Heart Riga.
A good, well-formed chin la essential to
creative genius, energy and enterprise. "The
heart sign," and, of course, of a good cir
culation. Is Indicated by a large, full and
projecting chin.
"Want of heart" la proclaimed by, among
other thlnga, a weak, narrow and contract
ed chin. Feeble china denote a efeble clrcu
tlon. Small-chlnned people are, aa a rule,
physically feeble.
They are weak In mind, having no great
executlvenesa or "go." Such persona have
little reaction under difficulties, and "give
way" under trifles, lose their' mental bal
ance, succumb readily to disease and any
courage they possess la of th hysterical
order.
Healthy kidneys are Indicated by the
chin. Blmroe, the physiognomist, places
the sign of the kidneys In the chin. Imme
diately in front of the angle of the In
ferior maxillary bone. Dr. Redfleld lo
cates at the same point his physiognomic
sign of ardent love. They are both light.
Long life, love and good kidneys are sim
ply impossible with weak and defective
china Manly men and affectionate women
have good and well-formed china Dudes,
simpletons and Idiots have none to apeak
ef.

Intelligence, grace or goodness should the
mind. King David must have had a chin
of the broad, full order.
Th Soelal Faealty.
The broad, full chin with th face In har
mony, with full, red lips, will respond to a
good development of the social faculties
and the enjoyment of health. As women
possess, as a rule, more of the vital tem
perament than men, this sign Is generally
large. Social people have broad chins.
Narrow and selfish people will have nar
row china Weakly people will have re
troatlng china Courageous, bold and en
ergetlo people will have protruding china
of the pugnacious order. They will lead
and advance. Retreating china fall back,
shuffle out of the -fight of the duties and
tolls of life and their possessors will whine
when they have a chance about their Ill
luck. Firmness, resolution or strength of
will Is shown by a good square Jaw. Wel
lington, Napoleon and Washington are
good examples.
Pugnacity sends the chin out. It pro
trudes and darea Thoughtfulnesa sends It
down and out. Imbecility and cowardice
cause It to retreat. Intelligent men or
women with retreating chins are generally
maneuverera. I do not know a better word
to cxpreaae their small diplomacy. They
lack straightforwardness.
When there la flabblness In man or
woman there Is subserviency. The sub
serviency will be greater or less aa the
loose skin la greater or less round the
windpipe and under the Jaws. The full
ness Is akin to the double chin, which la
both acquisitive and subservient.
Animals have no chin to speak of.
A well-defined chin Is a characteristic
purely and solely human. In animals the
Jaws are prolonged,- csrrled forward and
beyond the "face," Including the brain.
In man the Jaws are foreshortened and
crushed backward, a chin Is formed, or
ought to be, overshadowed by a prominent
and well-deflned brain. "Survival of the
Attest" is a conflict between Jaw and brain.
In man brain wins; the animal and animal
natures retain the Jaw. Chicago Record

The crowd almost blocked Fountain square.
Ramsauer climbed the pole without any

As a Anale he sent a thrill of horror
through the multitude which watched him

On the way home from town, so the story

note book, went over every item, checked
It off, and saw that he had made all the
purchases he had Intended. As he drove
on he could not put .aside the feeling that
that there was something missing. He
took. out hi note book and checked off
every item again, but still found no mis
