persons,” says the handbook, “are
commercial travellers who have been
Accustomed to travel for some firm,
and who carry on an actual and con
tinuous business. Just now also
waiters, barbers, metal-workers for j
shipyards and ammunition factories,
and nurses are much sought after in
England. Women are especially re
commended as good agents for ob
vious reasons.”
( •The greatest danger is said to be
in the sending of information. “But
this,” says the writer of the hand
book,” is reduced to a minimum by
chemical agents in Germany who
have taken special interest in this,
and have prepared means, which ow
iftg to the inferiority of the enemy’s
chemical knowledge he is unable to
detect. The materials are given to
agents in a form which attracts no
attention.”
One of these methods illustrated in
the course of the trial was by means
of handkerchiefs, on which the infor
mation was conveyed by means of in
visible ink.

Cheap clothes are a mighty poor invest- |

and are never well-fitted or satisfactory
in any way. One of our well-made, cor
rect-fitting suits invariably give satisfac- *

in fact, it is quite low, considering the
high price of all materials that go into the
making. We bought advantageously.
