French capital have found the latest

Paris husband who had been hay-

one OF these experts as last chance
before seeing lawyer. The doctor

of which was red, hung on the wall
AT the home he found red wall pa

IN the house and throw away every
red piece of furniture you have"

orders and since then there has been
no trouble In that family.
