Young Girl Buried Alive

Wang, a farmer, is the head of -old and 'respected family in Nankehchuang, and Liang, another farmer, is a personage of similar dignity and conservatism in a neighbouring village. Wang's son and Liang's daughter having re- cently come to marriageable age, the two were betrothed. "

Apparently it was not an old- fashioned betrothal of two young people who did not know each other, Young Wangknew Miss Llang and was quite in love with ber: He welcomed the betrothal wholeheartedly.

Miss Liang, however, appears to have been imbued with new ideas. She enjoyed bedecking herself in clothes of the latest cut and fa- shion, and even`went so far as to bob her hair. Moreover; she did not believe in hiding her beauty, but frequently stroked through the village and even conversed freely with the young men. Soon she had all the young farmers of the surrounding villages paying court. and what was worse, the old wp- men began to talk about her.

Not deterred by strict parental warnings, Miss Liang continued to Gout the old customs. The situa- tion became so unbearable "to old- fashioned Mr. Wang and Mr. Liang that they finally met to discuss the matter between them. The re- spectability of both familes was. being" menaced by the girl's be- haviour. Only one course appear ed open to them, and they took it. Miss Liang was taken to a quiet spot outside the village by the out-

raged parent and future father- in-law and there buried alive,

bright new clothes and all.

Hearing about it next morning. young Wang was frantic. His love for Miss Liang and his grief at her murder were so strong that be pro- ceeded at once to the District Gov- ernment where he lodged a formal accusation against his father and Mr. Liang,

Although according to the old laws, and according to custom. parents are entitled to do away with daughters who bring dishon- our to the family name, the new laws are different. It is recalled that some months ago a man" and his wife in Tientsin were sentenced to life imprisonment for a similar offence. It is not known, however, what action will be taken in the present case.—~~

Simply because there is a shortage of vital minerals in the

body.

That is the reply, supported by the best medical opinion. Calcium is the vital food of every body cell, and any shortage hunders the correct performance of all bodily functions, particularly those of women.

The use of Kalzana, the mineral food, for a few weeks provides the whole system with the indispensable minerals needed to establish that care-free, vigorous health that Nature intended you to enjoy.

But it must be Kalzana, as only in this scientific form (a combination of sodium. lactate and calcium-lactate) will the mineral salts be taken up and retained by your body. Lose
