A Devoted ROYAL CoupIe.

The devotion of the venerable king
and queen of Denmark is described
as positively touching. During the
time of the Queens illness, which last
ed something like three months, no one
about the court was allowed to see her
save her husband, a lady in waiting
and the physician in ordinary. The
King was ceaseless in his devotion.
He rarely went out, save when duty
compelled him, abandoned his custom
airy exercise, and passed hours every
day reading to his wife or playing
cards and chess with her, and telling
her what was going on in the world
outside. The long abstention from his
walks and rides, his constant attend
ance upon the invalid-who, happily,
recovered in springfield rather heav-
lily on the King, and in turn affected
his health.
The Queen seldom appears in public.
Ceremonies to her, as to the Princess
of Wales, have always been ceremonies
from which she preferred to escape
unless duty absolutely called her. OF
a bright and most youthful disposition.
she likes to have gay and happy folk
about her.
II can't bear to see long faces near
me-" she will declare.
OF their numerous grandchildren
both King and Queen are immensely
fond, and are seen walking about with
them hand in hand at Copenhagen.

two finger prints being identical is less
than one in siXty-four billion, and when
we consider the relatively small num-
bers of the criminal population, and
that other personal evidence would be
available in any doubtful case. mis-
taken identity ought now to be a thing
of the past. The method of obtaining
the prints is to press the thumb or fin
ger upon a plate of copper which has
previously been coated with very thin
film of printers ink. The linked fingers
are then pressed or rolled upon the card
which is kept as a record. Although
finger prints have been used as a sign
manual from the earliest times, vet it
is only recently that they have been
studied from a scientific point of view,
and the evidence accumulated is as vet
insufficient to enable us to realize their
value to the anthropOlogist. Now that
a good system of classification has been
worked out, it is to be hoped that OBJ
servers will multiply rapidly, and that
the bulk of the material at our disposal
will soon be considerable.

CURES MULTIPLY.
Testifying to the Wonderful Sue
cess of DR.. Darrin
Sufferers Coming From All Points of
the Compass for Treatment. /, Il

DR.. Darrin is certainly a fortunate
professional man. To be a successful
practitioner is in itself a creditable
achievement, but to become possessed
of skill that enables one to be the
means of curing countless thousands
is an honor that falls to the lot of
few men in the ordinary walks of life
DR.. Darrin has certainly won that
distinction. All that is necessary for
doubters to be convinced is to visit
the doctors office in the Auditorium
building at any time of the day and
interrogate those present who have
been under his treatment. Not a day
passes now but that DIR. Darrin is
called upon by one or more ex-patients
to express gratitude for complete res
toration to health and absolute free
dom from disease.
Voluntary testimonials Of this kind
constitute a proof that would make
the most skeptical man weaken could
he only hear them and observe the sin
certify of manner in which such exper-
fences are related.
DR.. Darrin can be consulted free at
his office, Auditorium building, Spo-
kane, Wash, from 10 a. M to D. M
daily; charges low and reasonable, ac-
cording to circumstances and ability
TO pay. He gives free and confidential
examinations to all at the office or by
letter. Out of town patients treated
with unfailing success through CORE
spondence; one visit desirable, but not
altogether necessary.
