Most Daring Publication.

A young Parisian woman edits and manages what is no doubt the most daring publication in the world. It is circulated among members of the light-fingered fraternity, the editress being a kleptomaniac of no mean order, and also an Inventor of several devices calculated to assist her subscribers in following their craft. Items of interest are solicited, and if useful to “the trade” are liberally paid for. The paper has no title and is undated and unnumbered. The illustrations of touch gloves, false beards and other novelties are reproductions of black and white drawings made by the editor and contributors. The magazine offers great assistance to shoplifters who have had experience in their profession. Every subscriber must have at least a year’s apprenticeship in crime. As the utmost care is taken in its circulation, this unique magazine has flourished for several years and is Issued monthly at 53 a copy.—London Publicity.
