TOOK TO FORTUNE-TELLING.
AFTER FINANCIAL LOSSES. LIGHT FINE IMPOSKI). i By Telegraph.—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. Having suffered financial losses and being under the necessity of bringing some money into the home, Elizabeth Green twelve months ago took to fortune telling, and to-day was charged in Court on two counts. She did not appear, but her counsel said that in two hotel deals the woman lost £1700 and £1200 respectively. She had undergone a serious operation recently. Owing to her health and years she had found difficulty in obtaining a suitable position. Since his retuS*n from the war she had found herself compelled to keep one of her sons. In view of the woman's circumstances, Mr. Page, S.M.. imposed a light fine of £2, but remarked that the woman must discontinue fortune telling.
