The hat was then an integral oer lot both male and female costume, 'Pepys catches "a strange cold in ree lhead by flinging off my hat at dinner."

They "seriously diminish the chances | p of cure, lead to a great amount of unnecessary pain and suffering and premature death," and have caused the spread of small-pox ana -- in- fectious diseases by ignorant diagno- sis and mistaken treatment. The North is also the chosen ground of the bonesetter ,and in parts of Wales belief in these men is said to be implicit.

'These are classed under four primary types--arches, loops, whorls, and com- posites, and it' has been proved that these patterns persist In all their de- tails throughout' the whole period of human life. As a consequence, the police offilicals whenever summoned to investigate a case of crime, search first for finger- prints, and these can usually be found. 1 an arrest 1s made, [inger-prints 'are taken from the prisoner's hand, and if they tally with those taken on 'the scene of the crime one of the | strongest pieces of evidence it - Daal sible to obtain is there against h The finger-print ane an on Bau Jand Yard is now a huge one, and 4 search amongst these recouda will fre- : eee enable them to discover who culprit of a misdeed happens to oe a that finger-prints are not only form or ager Dae a vaiuetle help in tracing crim Naturally, these ugar: print impres- s.cns are jealously guarded.
