Finger Prints.

Examine the tips Of your thumbs and
fingers and note the peculiar lines that
form a series of ridges on the skin.
These lines are formed by the innumer-
able mouths of tiny canals, which con-
vey perspiration from the deep-seated
sweat glands TO the surface. Inasmuch
as the mouths OF these sweat glands
never change their positions. the lines
on the skin are always the same. Even
though some Of the skin is destroyed. as
when you burn your finger, the lines
appearing on the new skin will be ex-
actly as they were before they were
destroyed
Place a little ink-~not too much-~on
the skin of your thumb and then place
the thumb gently on a piece Of paper.
You viii then have an impression of the
thumb lines Now have some Of your
friends do likewise and compare the
various finger prints You will note that
no two of them are alike. In fact. no
two people have as yet been found
whose finger prints are alike
Because Of this the police Of the world
keep finger prints Of all criminals for
purposes Of identification When a
crime has been committed police try
TO obtain finger prints left by the crimi-
nal at the scene of the crime. They
then compare these with the finger
prints IN their possession. BY this
means they can very often identify and
capture their man. This Is the reason
why experienced laW-breakers always
wear gloves. They try TO avoid leaving
their finger prints.
