Its the case of Amy Castaldi of Chicago. When fate began piling grief on Amy's shoulders, she piled it up high. It was a Friday morning, the second day of July, 1933, when things son, out playing with some began to go wrong. Amys other kids, burned the pupil of his right eye. He was in constant pain, and for two days and nights after that Amy never left his bedside until a far worse calamity forced her to. And right onthe heels of that accident came the news that an uncle had died in Louisville, Ky. Amy couldnt go to the funeral. Not with her boy in constant agony. So, on Saturday night her husband went without her, leaving her to take care of her son, and her two young daughters. Fierce Gale Struck Her House. Night had come on. Amy had put her two little girls to bed and they had gone to sleep. She was back at her sons bedside, weary and worn, for another long nights vigil. The hours rolled on. The wind had begun to rise. At 2 oclock in the morning it was blowing a young gale. The Castaldis' house was completely exposed to that wind on three sides. On the other it was protected by a factory, but the gale wasnt blowing from that direction. The wind rose steadily. It whistled and howled in the telephone wires outside. The whistle rose to a shriek, and still it. kept on rising. Then, suddenly, the lights went out In the street. A burst of hailstones rattled against the house. And at almost, the same time a window crashed In the front of the dwelling. The house was shaking shaking violently. It was about all Amy's frazzled nerves could stand. She let out a scream.

Hanging should be hung about at the level of the eye, but since they also are to be hung in relation to the furniture groups, it is sometimes better to hang one below eye level over a low table or desk, or above eye level over a high chest.

Strangest Portrait In the West Highland museum, FL William, Scotland, is one of the strangest portraits ever painted. It looks like nothing but a mess of colored paint, but when a metal cylinder of the right size and shape is placed at a certain spot on the canvas, the reflection mirrored on the cylinder becomes a portrait of Bonnie Prince Charlie, pretender to the British throne in the Eighteenth century.

One by dows crashed, there was a louder crash a shriek of rending wood and a huge piece of sheet metal came TEARING RIGHT THROUGH THE SIDE OF THE HOUSE! The wind had stopped howling now. Instead, it tore by with a loud, .steady, hissing roar. The house was deluged with water that came through the broken windows. Now rocks and pieces of lumber came hurtling in and Amy could hear more flying debris battering against the side of the house with a force that was all but tearing it to pieces. I was about to faint with fright, Amy says. "I grabbed my children and ran for the back door. I took hold of the knob and tried to open it. It wouldnt budge. The movement of the house under the force of the storm, had wrapped it tightly shut. My children were screaming, and their eries gave me strength. I tagged at the door with renewed vigor and finally opened it. But when the door opened, Amy paused and looked out on a scene that looked almost as uninviting as did the inside of her home. Before her was nothing but the blackest of darkness and the terrible hissing roar of the wind. Thunder boomed and a streak of lightning rent the sky. As the flash illuminated the heavens she could see that the air was full of flying debris. More rocks and pieces of sheet metal boards, bricks and everything imaginable.
