| REAL poison ring of the Borrias,

A REAL poison ring of tho norsias

lapse OF five hundred years. has actually
been discovered in Turin, Italy. Its dis.

that it has verified n story long held in
doubt by scientists and historians.
This ring, with "A serpent's head, which
is now known to have belonged to the

Zurich, his hand and arm swelled, and he
became terribly i'll,

scratched by tiny needle in the serpent'z
head, and that he was poisoned. Beneath
the needle was a small hole, in which the
poison had been sccreted. Il was sim
powerful, but time had partially weak
ened its strength and his life was saved.
Other Investigations traced the RING
back to the period of the Borgias, and
finally left little doubt that it had been
owned by the notorious Alexander vi. or
some member Of his immediate family.
The Borgias were the outstanding fr-
ures of their time, As Pope Of Rome, in
a licentious age when even the Vatican
was not left uncontaminated, Alexander
VI. was known as the most powerful and
dissolute temporal ruler Of his time.

to proving that a successful ruler cannot
be hampered by the moral code of ordl-
nary mortals.
1t is historically known that the Bor-
gias stopped at no crimes to advance their
interests and pOwer-not even al the
murder of members Of their own family.
The story, however that they used poi
son rings to make away with their enc

this murder, but he was so headstrong and
powerful that none dared accuse him.

which was in itself splendid purpose.
AT any rate, the Borgias were supreme
IN Rome and pursued their aims of wealth
and power even over the dead bodies of
their own relatives.
All the secrets of the art of noisonlnc
seemed to be at their command, and ,nany
prince and cardinal expired In agony
after having been invited TO one Of their
dinners. They were not so crude as to
poison the wines with any ingredient
which would cause death quickly, and
thus arouse immediate suspicion. but ad-
inlnistered on such occasions poisons which
worked only after several days and which
produced symptoms which might have
been caused by natural illness.
BY the irony of fate, Alexander him

enemies.

The discovery of the Borgia poison

most illustrious and the most infamous Of

Alexander VI and his son Caesar were

The worst murder which stains the
name of the Borgia family was the
assassination by Cardinal Caesar Bor-

According to Alexander Dumas,
Caesar sent one night for Michelotto,
chief of his hired ruffians. When
Michelotto arrived he was surprised

The discovery Of an actual Borgia poi

OF extraordinary historical Importance.
1t is of scientific importance, too, for
chemists have always wondered what poi

ages which could kill from a tiny pin prick
and leave no trace afterward by which
they could be analyzed. Further investi-
