Thousands Cannot
Take Aspirin.
The discovery a few years a-
go of a pain relief which ex-
haustive tests by thousands of
physicians, dentists and nurses
proved it to be truly wonderful,
was indeed a great blessing to
sufferers of headaches, neural-
gia, rheumatism, neuritis, per-
iod pains. During the great
flu epidemic it'was conclusive-
ly found thousands could not
take aspirin, acetanilid or com-
pounds containing these.
The remarkable new discov-
ery called A-Vol does not con-
tain aspirin, acetanilid or any
heart depressants. It is abso-
lutely harmless to young or old.
It stops pain in five minutes
and instead of leaving you feel-
ing loggy, it actually peps you
up.
- If you have severe headache,
pains of any kind, you owe it
to yourself to try this remark-
able new scientific discovery. A
tube of twelve tablets at your
druggists costs but’ a few cents.
Just ask for A-Vol—you will be
delighted.—Adv.

SCIENCE SHOWS SLEUTHS OF FUTURE
MAY OUTDO EVEN SHERLOCK HOLMES
Particles on Clothing May Show Man’s Occupation and
Home Town—French Investigator Paves Way With
Microscopic Examination to Convict Slayer.
The Modern Sleuth Examines Suspect’s Clothing With Microscope. Insert
Shows Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, Creator of Sherlock Holmes.
WHEN Sherlock Holmes looked
at a man’s shoes and saw red
on them, the great detective
of fiction could tell instantly the lo-
cality from which the man came.
Detectives of the future will be able
to go Holmes one better, if one may
judge from some of the scientific stud-
ies now being made upon dust par-
ticles.
Physicians have long known that
dust flying in the air may cause cer-
tain ailments and city officials have
seen to it that children’s health on city
playgrounds is protected against dust
by certain dust-laying chemicals, such
as calcium chloride.
Researches show that a man’s occu-
pation may be determined from the
dust particles found on his clothing
and, further, in many cases, police
may learn the name of the city in
which he has his home.
The matter seems simple enough,
too. A steel worker will have fine
particles of steel clinging to his cloth-
ing, no matter how often he may brush
them. Such particles might be re-
moved by brooms, vacuum cleaners or
even magnets, but a sufficient number
remains for determination by a micro-
scope.
So likewise might other occupations
be determined: a school teachei from
chalk dust; a jeweler from gold and
silver particles; a druggist from chem-
ical specks; a lumberman from mi-
nute fragments of wood, and so
through most of the scale.
In the same way a man’s city may
be determined by analysis of dust
found in his clothing. If it contains
much carbon or coal, he probably
comes from Scranton; if copper, from
Butte, Montana; if bits of minute
coral, from St. Augustine, Florida,
whose streets are paved with coral,
and similarly down the list.
No one pretends that the list at this
time is accurate. But some patient in
vestigators in the future may compile
a list of occupations, as well as of
cities, with all the precision that the
advance of science may bring to it
and then the job of the detectives
promises to be easier.
A few- years ago a French scientist
was able to help the police to con-
vict a man suspected of certain mur-
der in a quarry. The suspect said he
had been sleeping in the fields. Micro-
scopic examination of the man’s cloth-
ing revealed the presence of quarrj
stone traces. The man then confessed
