Builds the Only SOLD BY WESTON EQUIP WITH An exâ€"convict who has spent fifteen terms in. prison, recently visited the office of the London Daily Chronicle, and left a letter purporting to reveal a secret method of invisible writing by means of which prisoners were able to communicate with friends outside. In the letter he claims that this was the method employed by Kennedy and Browne, when, as stated at the time, they were able to send a request to friends to forward them . poisoned sandwiches under the system which enables prisoners on remand to reâ€" ceive food from outside. The letter continues: "In <this letter is the method under which they sent out their messages. Can you find it?" The explanation and a test of the trick were finally volunteered. In the blank spaces of the letter the exâ€"conâ€" vict had penned‘ an invisible message by dipping the pen nib in his mouth and writing with saliva. Lightly done this cannot be seen by the naked eye. To reveal the writing all that had to be done is to rub ordinary ink over the blank space, blot it quickly and the invisible words stand out like orâ€" dinary penmanship.

Instead of being a stalwart, burnâ€" ingâ€"eyed lover who has his way with the girls, he is found to be selfish, cruel, and very smelly, keeping his wives under his iron rule, uncivilized, still wearing the clothes of centuries ago. At any rate, documentary evidâ€" ence as to this illusionâ€"shattering truth is found in reports prepared by the assistant curator of the Field Musâ€" eum, who led the Capt. Marshall Field expedition into north Arabia in 1927 and 1928. His findings show that the Arabian sheik is anything but an ideal lover; that his wives are as slaves, about as ignorant of life and culture as they were centuries ago; that whatâ€" ever romance enters into an Arabian courtship is about as heartâ€"warming SHIEKS NOT ROMATIC Weston Ladies‘ Shoppe Every summery shade imaginable from meadow pink to mosaic blue.

True, the Arab youth will woo a girl with such charming phrases as "Thou art the slumber of mine eyes, thou art my food and drink."
