Need spiritual help in stealing a woman's garter? Try a prayerful summons to the angel Baltazard, who, according to the Jewish cabala, has a special gift for such pranks. In case he fails, other spirits might help-perhaps Vassago, an angel with unique ability to ferret out a lady's secrets...

On the basis of the microscope's evidence, three Russian and three Hungarian doctors gave the fatal verdict: Ewa is not a woman because she has "one chromo some too many...

He needed only two years to get the company out of receivership; a year later, as president, he was able to announce a $1 common-stock dividend-first for the hapless Erie in 69 years...
