Tierney grinned his appreciation. "Now then, Tierney," went on Morgan, "you relieve Murphy in the morning, and watch things until I can get on the job. After I relieve you, you get in touch with Headquarters and have some fingerprint photos taken." "Did you find finger prints?" exclaimed Tierney, sitting up with a start.
No two people born into the world probably have ever had identical lines upon all their digits. It is very doubtful if any single fingerprint will ever be exactly duplicated by any finger other than the one which originally made it."

The tricky part is being able to apply the silicone only to the edges of the glass and not letting your sticky fingers touch any other portions of the glass. Otherwise, the glass will look dirty, for the silicone marks will stay like a fingerprint on the glass forever.
"Not a finger-print anywhere," responded the other, "men like Barney are born wise to the fingerprint business, sir." He dipped a finger and thumb into his waistcoat pocket. "Clues?

You'll pass anything but X-rays.

At the present time traveling salesmen, who spend much money and who wish to carry as little as possible of cash with them, have an organized system by which their bankable paper may be cashed at hotels and business houses over the country.
