some one will point a finger at it and

ancient landmark of the British
Isles has been sold to an Ameri-
can. Richard Pennoyer of the
American diplomatic service, has

surrounding a castle which dates
from the thirteenth century, and is
beautifully situated with terrace
gardens reaching almost down to
the sea. In the main building there
is an old banquet hall, several long
galleries, an armory and numerous
spacious reception rooms, all of
which have been brought thor
oughly up-to-date.
Mrs. Pennoyer is an elder sister
of Marquis Anglesey, and the
Countess of Pembroke. She mar
ried Mr.. Pennoyer in 1917 while
he was second secretary in the

Villafranca, who "practiced
physic" in Rome, was the first
to make public the fact that by
the aid of salt, water could be
quickly frozen. He immersed
a bottle of water in a pail OF

refined salt. turning the bottle
constantly until the water was
