Il tell yuu this because 50 much has been SAID
recently about the cheap tricks and workings
81 witch doctors, \ good many u these people
who practise witch cures are women q fortune
telisrs. They, however, are never called In. IN
severe cases. These petty spell sellers petdle
their magic charms with strange lettering
and devices To ignorant people. who have
slight pains or imagine they are being haunted
Some may have lost the love of a dec-ltfui man
Some may be Jealous II another woman. Hun

is mcsmer1sm or hypnotism. That Is a great

perfectly. passive and willing to be controlled

any innocent girl Therefor there is no such
thing as witchcraft No one can make another
