A statistician has made a study of the records of shoplifting in England. Women of the middle and upper classes are, he •states, the chief offenders, although it is difficult to credit such a statement. Kleptomania is not always the reason for these '-thefts, because the shoplifters often hunt in couples, one engaging the. attention of the attendant while the other does the thieving. For every man caught at the work there are 300 women.
