Strange But True

By P‘. H. l“lCAl'“‘ll.Il

Did _voti know that the Incas ate a wonder food. with all the food elements necessaiy for perfect health long before the days of Pizzaro?

The food and agricultural ad- niinistration of the United Na- tions has rediscovered this perfect food called "qulnua“ 12,000 feet above sea level.

The bean-shaped pods of this plant. are now being turned out experimentally in the shape of corn flakes.

The woiidcr food has one draw- back. It tastes like soap, which is rt pity for you see Quinua docsn‘t mind Jack Frost, doesn't. require rain, and lives and produces in the poorest soils.

A resideiit of Prince C0lllll,_\'. aged

80. sent. me. the following ghost story which he claimed actually happened.

Many years ago. Charles Gallant, ‘.20. was head over heels in love with a beautiful blonde named Madclyii. The only thing that separated the pair from becoming ninn and wife was the almighty dollar. but fin- ally Gsllant had the shekels.

A feiv days before the date set

for their wedding Charles and Madelyn attcnclcd la country dance. There the girl met. a city sticker and eloped with him that same night. Heartbroken over this sudden and ziltogether unexpected turn of events Gallant penned I! brief note. left it on the kitchen table of his home and thcn blew out his brains ivith .1 shot gun. The note read:

days of your lives.—Charles."

Shortly sftervvard the city guy and his bride were driving along a country road. not far from the place where Gallant had ended his life. suddenly the dashboard of the wagon snapped off and flung itself into the gutter. The horse shied and almost threw the occu- pants ot‘ the carriage into the gut.- ter. The startled couple distinctly saw the form of Gallant walking on I dark cloud above their heads, and they recalled the words of the note: "This is not the end of me. I will haunt you fool lovers all the days of your lives——Charles."

“For years the hauntings went on", said my informant. “Then the couple left. the Province to live in Maine. They were not bothered any more.
