ROAD; AUTO|STS
WERE BEHEADED

ROME, Nov. 3:-Banker Ber-
toni, many times a millionaire, was
arrested today for killing his wife
and her rich admirer named Zerbati,
because he believed the woman was
fonder of Zerbati than she should
have been. He heard the couple plan
an auto trip and strung a tightly
stretched wire across the highway be-
tween two trees. The auto dashed
against the wire and the couple were
almost beheaded. Bertoni admits the
killing and is proud of the skill in
which he arranged it.

ease in the city. During the month
of November of last year there were
thirty-eight cases of scarlet fever,
eleven of diphtheria and one of mea-
sles. This shows a good record of
the health authorities for this year
Although conjagion often results in
epidemics, DR.. e. w Fithian states
that the present clean and sanitary
condition of the city's streets and
back yards is responsible for the ab-
sence of contagion and other disease.
Speaking of the large number OF
cases of scarlet fever in the month OF
November last year, DR.. Fithian said
Yesterday, that nearly every child in
the city has had the disease and there
seems no fear of such an epidemic for
some time to come.

HOW DO Y0U WALK7


Quick steps are indicative of energy
and agitation.
Tip-toe walking symbolizes surprise,
curiosity, discreation of mystery.
Turnedin toes are often found with
preoccupied, abSent-minded persons
Wavering and changeable steps be-
tray uncertainty, hesitation and indie
clsion.
The miser's walk Is represented as
tooplng, noiseless, with short, nervous,
anxious steps.
Where revengeful purpose Is hid
len under felgned smile the step will
be Sinking and noiseless.
Slow steps, whether long or short,
suggest a gentle or reflective state of
mind, as the case may be.
The proud step Is slow and meas,
ured the toes are lsplcuously turned
out; the legs Strengthened.
Obstinate people, who in an argument
rely more on muscularity than on intel
ltctual power, rest the feet fatty and
d!mly on the ground, walk heavily and
slowly, and stand with the legs firmly
planted far apart.
