Not only is it virtually impossible
that any man's ten finger-prints, one

mathematician, as one hundred and

is equally impossible that any two
finger-prints should be Identical in
every detail.

priut system for identification of the
sailors and soldiers In service, as this
might become useful not only in
cases of desertion, but also to more
readily Identify the bo .,es of those
who have fallen on the field of battle.
