Among their interesting finds were IS
feet Of 25-foot shark and large

being parts of ten or more different
animals, whereas they all came from
but one specie. All of Prof. Stern.

a WOMAN TO BE PRETTY
Must Have Luxuriant and Gloss,
Hair, No Matter What Color.

The finest contour of a female face,
the sweetest smile of a female mouth
loses something if the head is crowned
with scant hair. Scant and falling
hair, it is now known, is caused by a
parasite that burrows into the scalp to
the root of the hair, where it saps the
vitality. The little white scales the
germ throws up in burrowing are
called dandruff. To cure dandruff per-
manently, then, and to stop falling
hair, that germ must be killed. New
bros Herpicide, an entirely new re-
suit of the chemical laboratory, de-
stroys the dandruff germ, and of
course, stops the falling hair. and pre-
vents badness. Sold by leading

to where he is going and the time
of his expected return. With few ex-
ceptions the residents are accepting
this practical martial law with but
little complaint.
"The murder was one of the most
brutal, horrible and inexplicable with
which | have ever come in contact, p"
said Expert Evans. There is only
one way to tell who the murderer is,
and that is throuh the finger print
on the lamp chimney"
Are finger prints a positive identi-
fication?" Evans was asked.
They are more complete, more
certain than Bertillion measurements, =
he replied. I'm England, Scotland
yard has impressions taken from the
hands Of 100000 persons, and there
arc cases where bouted bodies OF sea-
men have been identified when no
other means are possible. A murder
cannot occur in Il residence without
the criminal leaving some mark of his
finger upon dusty chair q glass or
even the person who was killed. These
can easily be photographed and then
we have mark of identification more
positive and certain than if the MUIR
derer wrote a name upon the wall"
Il compared the print on the Chin
ney with that of the murdered woman,
and as they are Of two different
classes it is practically certain that it
is that of the murderer"
IF they would only get one test
case before jury it would only be a
short time before the finger print sys-
tenn would be adopted in the United
States as it has been in England,
France and other European coun-
tries, said Hrs. Holland. "While /
know little about the ease as yet,
| believe this murder will result in
giving us an opportunity to demon
strate that the finger print system is
an absolute necessity in all police
work. In many murders If they would
call IN experts sooner much crime
could be checked. European police
officials think it is a disgrace the way
American criminals escape"
The case is more of puzzle than
ever said Mayor Cross last night.
we believe Mrs Grppen was killed
by some resident of the town, but
who the murderer can be we have not
the slightest suspicion. We are at
tempting to trace the history of the
woman from her birth in order to
