New Uses Of tho pietoaraph.

The detective photograph has been
used for many odd purposes besides
catching criminals
When Torrey and Alexander, the re-
vivalists, were holding their meetings
in Philadelphia in 1903, there was a de-
mand for seats far beyond the 5000 ca
pacity OF the armory In which they
preached. BY request, MI. Turner in
stalled a photograph transmitter, sus-
pending 1t from the ceiling about three
feet above the speakers head and six
feet in front of him. The wires from
his transinitter were connected, by a
specially constructed apparatus. with
$500 telephones whose subscribers
heard the service in their homes. AT
the same time wires were run to Beth
any church, where q large horn in the
pulpit gave out the sound Of $500 more
auditors, so that, altogether, 10000
people heard the music n preaching
at once.
The photograph has been used also to
study the minor activity of Mt. Vesuv-
ius between e%ruptions; to enable a man
to hear the sounds made by wild beasts
when undisturbed by men; in the
Metropolitan opera house and In the
Hudson theater. New York, to permit
the managers ~ hear the rehearsals
on the stage from their private offices;
to enable representatives in congress,
while sitting in their room in the Office
building, to hear the debates on the
floor or the House.

1T IS CRIMINAL TO NEGLECT
THE SKIN AND HAIR

Think Of the suffering entailed by
neglected skin troubles--mental be-
aus of designation, physical be-
nus of pain. Think OF the pleasure
Of a clear skin, soft, white hands, and
good hair. These blessings, so essen
tial to happiness and eve Gee In
life, are often only a matter or a little
thoughtful care in the selection Of
effective remedial agents. Cuticura
Soap and Ointment do SO much for
poor compilations, red, rough hands,

so little, that 1t Is almost criminal not
to use them. Although Cuticura Soap

postal to "Cutieura," Dept. L. Bos-
ton, will secure a liberal sample Of

Banks To Use Finger Prints.

II a system which is rapidly growing

in New York city is eventually adopted
"a thing that now seems highly prob

banks in the future with the purpose
OF withdrawing part of their accounts

specimens of their signatures but will
nave also to furnish copies Of their

Six months ago an Englishman with
O theory OF Identification by means Of
finger prints came to New York and
began to urge his system on local
bankers. He was received coldly at
first but early in April he gained AS
sent from > the Williamsburg Savings
bank OF Brooklyn for an experimental
use of the system. Since that time diff
ferent institutions nave realized the
value OF finger print naturalization and
today II was announced that 20 savings
banks in this city and through the
state have adopted the plan.
As demonstrated at one of the banks,
the method is remarkably simple, re-
sembling the thumb print method that
inkpad is provided upon which are
placed three fingers of the right hand,
also a card upon which is recorded the
impression of the first joints Of these
fingers. The finger print cards are
placed on file in the paying teller's cage
and anyone who wishes to draw his
funds must provide three fingers Of his
right hand for impression on the ink
pad to prove his identity.
With the finger print paraphernalia
the banks have provided a little bottle
of spirits of turpentine to take away
the ink from the depositor's tell tale
fingers. First you rub the fluid on the
fingers. then you rub them with a piece
of cotton cloth. Finally you rub them
on a towel. and pocket your cash.
