A. Anderson, of Bremerton, had ‘ost his set of false teeth and of the search he was making for them, finally enlisting The Star in his campaign? Well, Mrs. B. Jeffries, of the Barker hotel, walked into The Star office Tuesday with a set of false teeth which she said she found four weeks ago Sunday on Pine st. But here’s the rub— The reporter is no expert on dentistry, but this set looks very much to him like WOMEN’S TEETH. So now, instead of having only one set of man’s teeth to look for, he also has to search for a woman who owns the teeth he has on hand. If Mr. Anderson, or some one else, can straighten yut the mystery, a puzzled reporter will appreciate it. i \ junior youth and beauty of Queen Anne hill in the art of Price & Carter h ‘ SESE | CEUERNERRERIEE tread yt MAN IN HIDING ey Politician’ Is Theatened by Evidence in Tel- egraph Files _ BY PAUL R.
