Want to Rent Old Castle?

If anybody wants TO buy a ruined
castle. described as "of great histor-
ical and romantic history now is their
chance. according to advertisements in
serted In the British papers.
1t is not exactly modern, dating, as
It does. from 1866 and the advertiser
states that considerable outlay Will
be required to reconstruct it," The
purchaser is assured, however. that 1t
reconstructed, "a unique and charming
home would result"
Nothing is said about ghosts, but II
stands to reason that a castle OF TINS
age must have a large and lively flock
Of such insects. So here's a chance for
some of Americas millionalres TO ac-
uuire at small cost a castle-and all
that goes with it.
An added inducement is that there is
good trout fishing near by, so that
when tired of gazing at his unique and
charming home the purchaser can rest
his mind by going fishing.
