The above factory and the bi

WITH THE AID OF SORCERY
Women of Sardinia Thought They
Had a Chance to Recover a
Buried Treasure.

An old Sandman woman named
Anna Romano has been arrested at
Sassari charged with obtaining money
under false pretensions.
The Italian penal code has no pro-
vision dealing with magic and conse-
quently when Anna Romano was sur
prised at midnight by the police sur
rounded by several women holding
torches over a hole she had excavat ed
in the courtyard of . house, despite
the fact that the women was openly
engaged in magical practices, she was
accused Of swindling money from the
credulous torch bearers.
The women admitted that they had
given the sorceress money and all OPP
posed her arrest, as they were con
yinceG she was on the point Of disCov-
ering great treasure. The police do
not believe in treasures, however, and
very likely Anna Romano Will be sen
fenced to a long term Of imprisonment
Strange as it may seem, the exist
ence of the treasure is cOrrob0rated by
fact Anna Romano is in possession
of document written in the sixteenth
century in which it is related that a
wealthy woman of Sassari fearing a
French invasion, hid all Ire money,
jewels and plate she owned III a Sc
cluded place
This woman was subsequently muir
dered and her body was buried in the
courtyard OF her house A faithful
servant knew that her mistress wore
around her neck a loehet containing
the document. with the description OF
the place where the treasure had been
hidden.
When Anna Romano was arrested
she had just discovered the corpse Of
the murdered woman atld the locket
with the secret document The police
found the locket but not the document.

not always a season of rare enjoy

of the ladies in his audience, and
asked her how she had liked the lee

Not at all" was the unexpected
reply. But | thought the color of

Morris was delighted, for he had
taken great pains to find the right

Law Of Sanitation.

Sanitation is natural law. Nature
will not tolerate disease and decay
in her own domains. She buries the
dead in her forests with leaves and
vines. She cleanses impurities and
overcomes pollution in her fields and
streams, and she demands the same
effort of men. When men fail to obey
these natural laws they pay the pen
atty, declares the Healthologist. They
suffer or die. When they do obey no
effort brings surer returns. For clean
illness means health. and health means
ability. peace OF mind, content and suc-
cess.
