NEW LAW A MONEY MAKER.

Though the new blue sky law was
intended by the legislature solely as
. protection to investors and. the
revenue feature Of the act was not
expected to more than pay the ex-
penses Of administering the act, II
4 succeeded In doing that much, 1t Il
ukely that Secretary Of State J. Grant
Hinkle will be able to show that the
law has been a revenue producer.
Coupled with the new corporation fee
act, It will make a big contribution to
the state general fund. Enforcement
of the blue sky law is bringing many
companies heretofore careless about
Incorporation methods into strict COM
pliance with the laws. A general
roundup Of common law trusts is
compelling all such organizations to
incorporate, pay the annual corpora
ton fees and obey the securities act.

THE GREASE SPOTS
IN YOUR CARPET

Grease spots on carpets and rugs
vanish into the lungs Of the electric
vacuum cleaner, according to a report
of new usefulness for this house
hold aid, and leave no trace behind.
The spot or oil or grease should be
rubbed with talcum powder or French
chalk, either of which absorb grease,
and the vacuum cleaner then removes
the powder, and with it the spot.
If the grease has become hard, 1t
should first be rubbed with the pow
der or chalk, and then pressed with a
hot iron. The iron will soften the
grease, the chalk will absorb it, and
the vacuum cleaner will remove both,
without damage to the floor covering.

MUSSOLINI TO
USE CASTLE
FOR SUMMER
Premier Adopts Famous Fort
ress and Castle as His
Summer Residence
cENTU RIEs OLD

Rome, Sept. 1s.-The Castillo OF
Sangallo, once the famous fortress
and the property of the great Colon
ma family, has become the summer
residence of the Fascist Premier,
who comes to his office every morn
ing by motor.
The medieval castle was owned by
the Coonna family when their estate
were confiscated by Alexander vi
in 1901. The CASTILLO of Sangallo
eventually came into possession OF
Lucrezia Borgia's daughter and her
second husband, Alfonso of Aragon.
Alexander vi added to the castle but
all of the property was later return
ed to the Colonna family.
Once again the Colonna family lost
the CASTILLO Of Sangallo but recov-
cred it when the people of the dis
trict revolted in their favor. The
castle was later sold to Clement
VIII for 100000 ducats and it re-
NAMED in the possession of the
church until 1881 when it was sold
for the same price to the Borghese
family. 1t became state property
in 1870 and since then has passed
into various hands and now is in
sore need of repair,
Instead of the picturesque old Col
onna servitors or Papal Guards, the
castle is guarded by the Fascist
militia, dressed in black shirts, who
extend the Roman salute to Musso-
lini as he enters and leaves the
gates.
