FINGER MARKS or CRIMINALS
LIFE LONG AIDS 10 THEIR
DETECTION.

Individual Finger Marks Permanent
through Eife-Adoption Of System
for Identification Of y. s. Soldiers
and Sailors.
A few weeks ago Inspector
Mclaughlin of the New York City De-
tective Bureau received remarkable
evidence of the value of thumb-print
Identification. : A letter was brought
to him through the mails from London
containing the picture and record of
a noted criminal whose thumb-print,
with his name and description. was
sent to London to test the efficiency
of this new method of recording dis
tinguishing marks of criminals By
means of the thumb-print alone the
English police identified the criminal
captured by the New York police,
whose record in England includes eight
imprisonments on charges of larceny.
The prisoner was caught by Inspector
Mclaughlin in the corridor of the
Waldorf Astoria Hotel in April. There
were no charges against him in this
country at the time, but the Inspector
decided that his captive was an En-
glish "crook" 1t was found that two
patrons of the hotel had been robbed
and the prisoner was. detained for
thorough investigation of his case
Meanwhile the Inspector sent the
thumb-print to London and the reply
brought a photograph of the crook"
and duplicate photograph of his
thumb-print and his record
THE BERTILLoN SYSTEM.
For some time the criminal bureaus
of prominent cities have been using
the Bertillon measurement system
which also includes making two pho
tographs of the suspicious character
but the French system and photo
graphy have fallen short in many
cases, as a scheming criminal can
adopt various subterfuges to cheat the
law. but there Is no way of changing
the character Of his tbumb-print, for
there are no two people whose thumbs
are exactly alike, and each person has
his own individual thumb-print whose
character remains the same from the
day of birth to the end.
OLD AS THE HILLS
There is nothing really new in this
mode of Identification. as from time
immemorial the Chinese have known

NOT A PATENT MEDICINE
HyOmeI Scientific Treatment for
 Catarrh by Breathing MedIcated
 Air.

Ever since Hyomei has been known, it's formula has been given to physi- clans, druggists, and, in fact, to all in- tellieent people who could appreciate the true merit of the combination of healing gums, oils and balsams, of which 1t Is composed.
 Many leading physicians endorse Hyomei and prescribe it for catarrhal troubles In fact. quite few of them use 1t themselves to break up cold and prevent pneumonia. They regard it as a natural, yet scientific way of curing catarrh.
 Breathed through the pocket in- haler that comes with every outfit, Hyomei destroys all catarrhal germs in the ir-passages of the throat and nose, soothes and heals the irritated mucous membranes and effectually drives from the system all traces Of catarrhal poison
 No one should confound Hyomei with the patent medicines that are advertised as catarrh cures. It is as superior to them all as the diamond is more valuable than cheap glass.
 The complete Hyomei outfit, consist ing of a neat pocket inhaler, a medi- cine dropper and a bottle of Hyomei costs but $1. and extra bottles can be obtained for 90 cents, making 1t the most economical method of curing ca tarrh, as well as the most reliable,
 E. c. Fowler has sold a great many Hyomei outfits and has seen such re- markable results from it's use. that he sells it under an absolute guarantee that it costs nothing unless it cures.

riGcing part of the concentrates in the daily ration of the COW with some roufhness rich in protein such as alfalfa or cowpea hay.
 2. A ton of alfalfa or pAa hay caE he produced at cost of B to g.. per ton, whereas, wheatbran costs $29 tc' S25 As a yield of from to tGns of pea hay and from 8 to 5 tons of aifalfa can be obtained from an acre of land l. is easy to see the great advan'age the utilization of these rouRhnesses, ir the place of wheat bran, give the dairyman.
 3. In substituting alfalfa hay for wheat bran, it will be best m Prite tice tO allow 1 1-2 pounds Ur alfalfa t. each pound of wheat bran, and if the alfalfa is fed in finely choppet .on- dition, the results will prove more satisfactory.
 4. When alfalfa was fed under the most favorable conditions, d gallor of milk was obtained for 5.7 cent and q pound of butter for 10 4 cents. When pea hay was fed. the loweJ' cost of a Iound of butter was 9.4 cents. In Facilities where pea hay g-owS well, 1t can be utilized to rep.ace whsa blan, and in sections .whe; alfalfa can be grown 1t can be substituted for pea hay with satisfaction.
 5. These results covering two years tests with different sets of cows, furnish proof that certain forr,s of roughness rich in digestiple protein can be substituted with satisfaction for the more expensive concer IF lteI and should lend encouragement to dairy farmers.
 6. These tests indicate that with all falfa hay at S10 ton and wheat barn at $20, the saving effecte bY sub stItuting alfalfa for wheat would be $2.S0 for every 100 pounds of b.'tttr r and 19.s cents for every 900 pounds of milk. The farmer could thus aTord to sell his milk for 19.S cef ts a hund- red less than he now receives ani hls butter for about 22 as compared with 25 cents a pound
