PTH , SE Breast feeding is a natural proceed- ing, and any depar- ture from it should be regarded as an abnormality. The failure of so-many mothers nowadays to nurse their babies often arises through lack of knowledge and wrong advice. . Why Baby Should Be Breast Fed 1. The breast milk is created for the baby, therefore it is the baby's perfect food and his birth bright. & N Cre or 2. It is a food quite free from germs. Cow's milk has to go through many stages before it- rcaches the baby. 3. Breast milk is more easily di- gested than any other baby food. Also it may be called the digestive of cow's milk. Baby will digest cow's milk better if given even a small quantity of breast milk pre- viously. 4. A baby has better nutrition if he has been correctly fed. 5. Baby tends to have better teeth as he gets natural exercise. . for his mouth and jaws, 6. There is a low mortality rate in breast-fed babies, compared with those who are bottle-fed. 7. The mother has better health, and then too tliere is economy in time and money. 8. We set that the natural food produces a well nourished and de- veloped child; who should be a joy and comfort in the home not a fretful, weak, sickly baby, who is a constant worry to his parents, -- Dy permission of the Zealand Mothercraft Society.

For about 86 years, since it was last recast in fact, this great bell, weighing about 134 tons, has been irretrievably cracked, and con- sequently it is adjudged by the over-sensitive and musieal ear to be harsh and unmusical, But would anyone wish to ex- change for the polished tones of the professional singer or elocu- tionist the cracked tones of one whose speech or reading has long been heard as the voice of a friend bringing with it comfort and en- couragement to all and sundry? «ex Nevertheless, an obviously well- intentioned and serious-minded citizen has written suggesting that a fund be raised to recast Big Ben after the war, as a fitting form of war memorial, He suggests that the millions of listeners to the BBC all over the world would "vastly appreciate a change to the originally intended note and musical tone." © Does he really believe that lis- teners would enjoy having the be- loved and familiar, if unmusical and raucous, note taken from them in exchange for a note whose only merit would be that it was "musi- _ cal"? Should he succeed in starting his fund. for the recasting and re- habilitating of Big Ben, it is al- most certain that someone else would start a fund fo. the cxpress purpose of keeping. the bell as it is, and what would happen to the two funds in the resulting collision can best be left to the imagination. . «x Tt is comforting to learn that the ends of the several cracks have been expertly bored so they. are not likely to extend. As the bell has continued to chime the hours, with only very occasional inter- mission, since 1858, authorities are content to leave Big Ben as he is, and not to alter his familiar tone, Anyhow, most listeners would challenge the statement that Big Ben's voice is unmusical. To them the familiar voice speaks to greater things than nlere - sensuous impressions ot sound, but even these, too, they have come to love. --J. S.B. (In Christian Science Monitor.)

BY ELINORE COWAN STONE Last Week: As questioning pro- ceeds, it is revealed that Mrs. Tal- bert was Yardley's silent partner. Christine's ' identity is also made known. Then the inspector hands her a letter written by: her cousin. She has been cut out of Cousin Emma's will. CHAPTER IX Since Christine had first caught sight of that pitiful body on the concrete bench, she had known horror and remorse. Now she knew terror, "I see for you a very real dan- ger," a voice echoed in her mem- ory. "But," she faltered, "Cousin Emma knew that I am not extrav=- agant--she never suggested that she thought so. . , . And she has never mentioned her will to me. ... I can't imagine that she wrote this letter. But--who did?" = "Miss Thorenson," the inspector asked softly, "could you identify your cousin's writing?" "I--I don't know. This certainly looks like hers." "Isn't there anything you can tell me," the inspector went on al- most gently, "that might throw some light on this business?" * * * Christine thought, IT ought to tell him everything--about Jas- par, for instance--about that tele- phone girl, and about the swami's wearing that dagger. But all that--with his inevitable questions--would take time. And if the clairvoyant had had any part in this, why should he have tried to warn her? Now she wanted only to get to her room and satisfy her- self that there was, among her belongings, . nothing sinister--like this letter-- to complicate the in- credible positiow in which she found herself. "Nothing," she said, "that I can think of." Pee * : The inspector's face and he swung upon the disrepu- table figure in wading boots who, with. Bill had just returned from the next room and had resumed his seat in the corner by the- door. "Thank you," the inspector bark- ed, "suppose you tell me just when and where you have known this young lady." x % * Some one--Christine thought it was Bill--cried out, "Watch him!" Then all the lights went out, and a chair fell with a crash. . . After that there was in the room nothing but the sound of scuffling feet and heavy breathing until the door opened--and "slammed shut. . . . Later, sounds of shouts and running came from the darkened corridor outside. When the lights flashed on again, there were left in the room only the inspector, who stood with his hand on the light switch, Mr. Wilmet, cowering behind a chair, + and Christine. . . Almost at once Bill Yardley opened the door and came in. ' "Well, Inspector," said Bill, "Puss-in-Boots pulled a fast one, didn't he? TI think your men have fost him in the dark. I've been wondering just how long it would take you to notice, that the switch was right beside his chair." "And I'm wondering" --the in- spector's eyes were far from friendly--"just how much you helped him, Yardley." * * * The telephone rang. Inspector Parsons picked up the instrument hardened; and listened, Then, as if the call had been a signal he was waiting for, he suggested almost pleasant- ly, "You might as well all go and get some sleep." : Hardly daring to beleve that they were free, Christine found herself, with Bill and Mr. Wilmet, going downstairs and into the street. As she and Bill were turn- ing away toward Christine's lodg- ing, Mr, Wilmet coughed apolo- getically, "Miss Thorenson," he said, "of course you wouldn't care to go on sketching in that booth now--but suppose I find a quieter place? Could you meet me tomorrow morning--say at that drugstore in the Crestview -- and talk things over? . . . Working with you has heen such a--a pleasure." Zz "Why" -- Christine hesitated-- "frankly I shall have to earn some money somehow, Mr, Wilmet." "" "Until 10.30 tomorrow then?" the little man beamed. "Good night." * * . "Listen, Christine," Bill said as Mr. Wilmet pattered off into the darkness, "I wish you wouldn't, Didn't you see those flashlights going off-all around you down on' tonight the Boardwalk? After you're a marked woman." Christine stopped short, "Was that what those men were doing?" she demanded. "It hadn't occurred to me that they were sniping at me." "Well, it had to &e. Tomorrow your pictures will be all over the front page. . . stead of a complete outsider? Any- how, I don't trust. your funny little boss." "Not trust him? , . . That help- less old babe-in-the-wood?"" "Old? He's probably not got much on me. Lots of men are bald at 30. And he may be helpless, but he doesn't handle the truth any too carefully." d "What do you mean?" : * * * "He didn't go to any moving picture tonight--or if he did it. was nearer 10 thay nine as he said." "How do you know?" "I saw him down on the beach after 9.30, You see, after Labor Day, I'm permitted to take my horses to the beach, The hitching posts are right behind that studio. Tonight I went down to see what condition they were in--and there was your little babe-in-the-wood, poking around behind that booth." "Poking around?" "He seemed to be examining the foundations of his booth. Just before I came along, he went off up to the Boardwalk. IT don't think he even saw me." They were strolling along the promenade toward Christine's street. "Bill!" Christine said suddenly. "You don't suppose any one could --hear us, do you?" x * '. "Not unless the inspector man- aged to wire us for sound while the lights were out," Bill said with a short laugh. "But it's a sure bet. they're giving us pretty short rope. We'll stick to the wide open spaces in the middle of the walk to dis- courage ecavesdroppers, anyhow." "Bill," Christine hurried -on, "I've got to know--why were you beating up Jas--that man down on the beach tonight?" Bill was silent for a long mo- ANNUAL MEETING OF THE FIRST CHURCH OF CHRIST, SCIENTIST, BOSTON, MASS., JUNE 5, 1944 Headquarters of The Christian Seience Publishing Sosiety While holding military might essential to the victory of allied nations over the anti-Christ claims of injustice and intolerance, The Christian Science Board of Directors told the annual meeting ol The 'Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Massachusetts, that freedom is essentially a spiritual gift "to be realized only through spiritual understanding and attainment." J Directors cited the universal determination to win the peace as advance evidence of a world-wide realization that "righteous victory under arms will not suffice to guarantee freedom to mankind." Freedom from want and ear, freedom in worship, and speech, the Directors stated, constitute much more than a political slogan or governmental ideology, "fo our. great Way-shower, Christ Jesus, proclaimed centuries ago that freedom accords' with God's will an law; furthermore he gave simple, clear direction for the attainment of full freedom for the individual, and through the individual for all humanity. 1 If you're really = "hard up, why not let me help _in- Chosen by thousands "OF BUSY CANADIAN HOUSEWIVES d Save lime, v' LA {I TS CIR CAREY, a Kellogg's cereals have an important place in Canada's kitchens-- now, more than ever.

"He was--what?" "He was skulking in a shadow," Bill said, "when you came out of that clairvoyant's joint; and he slunk along the Boardwalk behind you, evidently waiting for a chance to stop you when there was no one else near." * * ° Christine's spine crawled at the picture his words conjured. "Of course," Bill went on, "the "reason I know is that I was trailing you, too. While I was down on the "beach, I saw you standing under a light on the Boardwalk, reading something, I was trying to catch up with you when you went into that Temple of Truth place, and--well, IT waited in a parked car just off the Boardwalk. . . . And now I've got somcthing to ask you, Christine. Just now you started to call Puss-in-Boots by name, didn't you?" ; "Bill," Christine said, hardly be- fieving it yet herself, "he's Jaspar-- Cousin Emma's butler. . .. At least he was her butler the last I knew. . .. It's incredible, but suppose he did kill her?" "TI am supposing it," Bill said shortly, "But what's a lot more vital to me is that he wasn't fol- lowing you for any good." "But, Bill even if he stabbed Cousin Emma--why should he want to harm me?"

They argued, and finally the dis- -senter was asked why he would not take the general's job, "Well, you see, there's no chance for promo- tion," was the reply. General Eisenhower told the troops this story on himself when he visited thie Canadians shortly before "D-Day." Hatching Eggs Stand Test Of Long Flight People in occupied countries will want poultry during recon- struction, and if hatching eggs can be flown to them instead of birds, there will be many economies, To determine whether eggs will hatch after the variations' of temperature and barometric pressure incident to flight, the University of Mary- land and American Airlines re- cently flew 15 dozen eggs from Washington to Los Angeles and back, and thca put them into in- cubation, with an equal number that had not been flown, as check. Results -- 157 chicks from the 180 eggs that flew, and 162 from those used as a check. Conclusion: Hatching eggs can be flown to Europe.
