"When it does I guess we'll get the real thing." The national detective agency, with its thousands of employees who have, most of them, grown up and received their training in its service, is a powerful organization, highly centralized, and having an immense sinking fund of special knowledge and past experience.

This is the product of decades of patient labor and minute record.

The agency which offers you the services of a Sherlock Holmes is a fraud, but you can accept as genuine a proposition to run down any man whose picture you may be able to identify in the gallery.

The day of the impersonator is over.

The detective of this generation is a hard-headed business man with a stout pair of legs.
This accumulated fund of information is the heritage of an honest and long established industry.
