"Every liny a 'sucker' is born, and tho mnjority of them are raised In tho United States, '.' declares Scotland Yard. Their opinion is based on the fact that every day and almost all day they are dolpged with complaints by Amor leans of swindling by rogues, tricksters and confidence men, with all their old time-honored hoary formulae. Hero la one of the latetst instances. 'j wo Americans entered Into conversa tion with nnothor tourist nt St. Paul's Cathedral, and somehow the same tourist ,,mct them coming out or their hotel next morning and suggested that they should go with him to get tickets to view" tho Mint. One of them wont to tho prltish Museum, and tho other went with the tourist. The result of that mornlng'H work was that the latter was relieved of over a thousand dollars. It was the old trick. A "stranger' hi front of them dropped a bulky on volopo.,7 The American picked It. up, And tho grateful "stranger" onteral Into conversation. He explained that ho had $500,000. to give away i In char ity, and the mnn who had Jiwt saved the bulky envolope, containing vain nbles, was obvl6usly the man to be en trusted with giving away $l0,000 to American charities, for which he would receive $500 for his trouble. Thereupon the American drew $HG5 from an American bank to show that he wai a man of substance. They then went to a hotel and had some drinks. i And then each In turn showed Ills trust by giving his valuables to the original distributor, who went out for ton minutes. In the American's case tho orlglnnl trickster found an excuse to go out also. And neither came back. With this ordinary tricksters would have Veen content. But' not so these chevaliers. They went nt onco to the Ilrltlsir Museum, collected the other American and by the same trick took $400 away from him. Last' week another American visitor was swindled by the same nnclont story of $1500 and a diamond ring. The. biggest coup of this season was when the confidence men relieved nn American of $5000 In less than nn hour. As it happened the police could have secured the thieves if only tho victim had remnlned to give evidence against them. Hut he was in a hurry to return homo and refused to wait. 1 0 SCCi "3 I A conression tlmt tho Ku Klux Klan had begun a campaign of administering summary Justice in northern Illi nois was mude by these three members of the Klan, recently taken into custody in Chicago. They are left to right: Herbert Pascolini, William A., Newman and A. 11. IJmhach. . A club, two loaded revolvers and a cat-o-nlne-talls wero found in their automobile, in which thoy wore proceeding to execute a "sentence" against a doctor who Is alleged to have "mistreated a young girl." How Volcanoes Benefit Mankind WASHINGTON, D. C Mankind's debt to tho volcano has been more fully recognized by results of recent researches. Contrary to the popular bolicf that the volcano Is an enemy it Is one of mankind's best' friends. With out volcanoes It now is believed there would bo no ocean; and to them we are indebted for carbon, dioxide, wlthi out which human life would not be possible. One of tho most tremendous vol canic explosions In history, Unit of Mt. Katmal, In Alaska, was described and its effects shown in motion pic tures before the Conference of Geogra phy of the National Education associa tion, held in lloston July 3. Dr. Robert P. Griggs, leader of the National Geographic society's expedi bigger than Delaware, was covered with a foot or more of ash, which wns enough to destroy all but the hardiest horliaceous plants. Before the explo sion a suffocating blanket of incandes cent sand burst through orifices in the floor of tho valley. When the' explo sion occurred two cubic miles of mater ial was blown off the top of the vol canic mountain and its present where abouts, as tho police bulletins would say, still Ib a mystery to scientists. Tho aftermath of this eruption pro mises to bo one of our most precious national heritages. Beyond Katmal lies a great valley from whose floor constantly ascends millions of columns of steam. These great rolling clouds of vapor which go billowing down the valley, sometimes trailing out before tions to studv Katmal nn ncoverer l" w," or more- exert an un- of Its neighbor natural wonder, tholcanny fdnntlon. Man Regains Health . V Living in Bathing Suit, Eating Mussels By LOS ANGELES, Cal., July (I. N. B.) -Frank Hanson has a now way of cheating death. fold by physicians thn ho was rapidly approaching death, Hansen has regained his health by returning to tho primitive life. Hansen Is said to - have lived like a wild man on Santa Crux Island, off Santa Barbara channel, for orghtcon months, sub sisting alonn on mussels, ithnloncs and fish. His only garment, it was said, was n bathing suit, which suf fered , considerably through hard usage. , It Is claimed by two ship raptalns that Hansen attracted considerable attention because bo . madu friends with wild foxes and boars found on the Intsnri: i Vulley of Ten Thousand Smokes, will tell of the findings of tho expeditions Though unaware of the mighty up heaval, every Inhabitant of the Unit ed States felt its effects; one of which was the cold, damp summor of 1912 caused by tho lntorcoptlon of so much sunlight by the dust, from the eruption which quickly wns carried around the world. Evon ill cloudless Sahara the sky was overcust; and It Is bollevcd that a succession of such eruptions could plunge tho earth Into nnothor Ico ago. Katmal's terrific oxploslon was un noticed becauso It wns so remote. Had tho upheaval occurred In New York City the sulphurous fumes would have polluted tho air everywhere east of tho Rocky Mountains; tho nolso would have -reverberate like an artillery duel across tho contral states; and tho low er Hudson itsolf would liavo been a giant tomb with fow ruins oven to tell tho story. Fortunatoly Katmal's eruption pro vided geographers one of their great est opportunities for studying volcanic phenomena without any frightful toll of human nilsory. Katmal Village, twenty miles from tho crnter, wns do serlcd bocauso all the natives had gone fishing, according to tholr summer cus tom. Kodlak, nearest settlement of conse. quonco, and tho most important town in nn area lnrgor than Ohio, Is a sleepy village of 100 people, where u niosquo llko Russian church Is a relic of the ono-tlmo Russian Amorlca. An area around Katmal, half ngain 1 he fumarolos, or vents, through which tho stoam escapes, disclose en crustations of greatest beauty, variety and color. There are masses of bright yellow sulphur, chunks of ash turned red and blue, and pure white masses of sIlIcioiiB material. You can cook your dinner over these jots of hissing steam, though you have to hold the frying pan down against the uprushlng stream. There Is a natural bathing pool, ono end cold and nnothor hot. Not far away Is a lake with trout of thirty inches or mora that blto at- almost anything; and there also is Brooks Falls with Its leaping salmon which may bo speared when a trout diet palls. President Wilson turned aside from tho stress of war tlino to muke this region a national monument. Some day It will bo a national park second in area only to Yellowstone. Many lesser phenomena mark the vicinity. There- Is railing mountain, for example, which noods not a motion-picturo enm oru, but a phonograph or a radio to record lis tlumdorous subsidence. Magnificent forests will provide n game preserve. Novarupta, a nearby volcnno, now veils her crater In rolling clouds of steam. So remote are theso phenomena that members of tho National Georgraphic society's expeditions aro 'the only white men who have yet explored them; but thoy aro not Inaccessible. A broad, deep harbor renders a landing easy, ami fifty mllos of roadway will place this natural wonderland within the compass of n day's automobile tri from tho harbor, named Geographic Harbor, in honor of tho Rational Geo graphic society which discovered and explored the region. A LIGHT FLY ROD SPOKANE, Wash., -July C. "Landing" a big skunk on a light fly rod was tho feat performed at. New man lake, neur hero, by Dr. J. It. Workery, a Spokane physician, re cently. Dr. Corkcry was fishing near th shore for cut-throat trout. Ho bad landed ono and had another strike. When he wns preparing to cast again ho snw tho skunk on the shore not far away. Ho whipped the line at it, but only angered the animal. On his second attempt ho hooked the skunk through tho tail. In tho fight which followed, the physician bent his fly, rod almost double before tho skunk lost Its hold on imshcH near tho shore and was drugged Into tho water. Doctor Corkcry then trailed tho animal into deep water and drowned him.

Optimism, steadfastness, loyalty, a sense of humor, health, character. thought fulness those - are the. at tributes of tho perfect husband, if you care- to accept the verdicts ren ueveu by tho cu-ed . graduutesr of byracuso University. .Miss Frances Slocum, valedictorian of theyclass, rules that the requisites or the perfect husband ure ambition, brains, ideals and a sonne of humor. A man who eats broad pudding wun me grace or a 1 connoissoui-lu French pastry and to whom tgoioiv row means something besides "an other day, another dollar" is : 'the ideal mnn for Miss Nerine Mason. A purpose in life, with an appre ciation of the fundamentns of life, rather than tho artificial, is tho de mand made by Miss Emily Clere, who adds: 'The Ideal husband must abhor divorce and be of tho one-woman kind. Ho must not have too stub born a disposition, so ho can be led into believing ho Is having ills own wny when ho really isn't. He must bo somewhat like tho caveman in taking the initiative, and now and then ho must dictate what his wife should do." An optimist Is wanted by Miss Beatrict Strait, retiring women's managing editor for tho Syracuse Daily Orange, tho undergraduate dally. Miss Strait declares that edu cational training should have more weight in selecting n husbnd than money or position, but one's husband. of course, should bo able to support his wife comfortably. The hypothesis of the whole thing Is that he must be true in love." "Good henlth, strong character. sense of honor, a good companion, with nn Intellect nt least equal to that of his wife" Is the right combination for a husband, avers Miss Elsie Bey- grau, retiring women's editor of tho Orange. A mnn who will remember that his wife likes a good time as well after marriage ns before" would fill the bill, admits Miss Dorothy Man wnrren. who a (14m that he should be thoughtful and appreciative in notic ing things at home. Miss Isabel Collins declares for a mnn who hns. plenty of pep, .is free from jealousy, trustworthy in every respect and admiring only to a cer tain degree. "A man who will be Interested in ho homo and his wife, but not to the extent of never wishing to go out" wins the' ballot of Miss Elizabeth Rlnnehaid, women's editor of the Onnmlagan. ' ' TTERE is a fabric tire in a class by itself. Literally it has no real competitor. It is a super fabric tire built for long, hard service on small cars. Regardless of road conditions or of any ordinary overload, on an established average it outwears from two to three tires of other makes. This tire is made with an extra layer of fabric and a heavy, special tough red tread which is responsible for its extraordinary service and for its fame. You cannot -find a user who "knocks" the Fisk Red Top you can find thousands to praise it beyond all other tires. There's a Fisk Tire of extra value in eivry size," or car, truck or speed wagon.
