Those who saw him before he started never forgot the look of hap- piness upon the dead face, â€" bo much nappicr than any they had ever seen upon any living one, "I know why that is," said Fcnella to herself, when the tale of that death- bed reached her in her far-off Canad- ian home, where love and courage had CREAM WANTED Sweet or Chumlnj ('/ream.

' Julia looked up with a.stonishment from the sandwiches she was pack- inff for his jouniey. "Dear me, Bertie, of course you know that I am! Whatever makes you aak?" "You esteem him. I suppose?" "Of cou«.se I do. Why shouldn't I? A man in his position is surely worthy of esteem." "And if I could Bhow you that he isn't worthy of it?" She stared at him, round-eyed, and very nearly opc-n-niouth. '•But, Ktrtie, what's the matter? I thought you were so pleased with my marriage?" "So I was -until quite lately. But the fact is I've changed my mind about Berrell. I've had a cahnce of] seeing the real man, and you haven't; and before you bind yourself for life' I think I ouKht to tell you that he isn't the man we took him for. Don't' a.sk mo for particularsâ€" I couldn't} tfive them; but this much T will tellt you; his respect for human life is noti â€"well, not what one takes for grant- ed that it is in every respectable iier-l Non; certainly not whiit one wants it' to be in those nearest one." Under the stress of the astonish- 1 nient Julia hud sat down. She even' grew a little pale. I "Good gracious, Bertie, you don't mean that he's kilUd anybody?" j "No, oh, no! He hasn't hurt a fly,' to my knowledge â€" not a man, any- way; I don't believe he'd have the pluck to do it; but he's capable of egg-| ing on another, under safe cover for himself. I know he '\%, and since I knew it the thought of seeing you his wife troubles me." I For a brief space after her brother! paused Julia sat there, a prey to visibly perplexed reflection. Very Hoon, however, the surface agitation â€" it was no more than thatâ€" died away as infallibly as die away the circles upon the water into which u stone has been thrown. Within a minute her broad, Koud-himiored face had again become as placi<l as any unvisited pond. Then she latiglied, her usual, comfortable laugh. "Really, Bertie, you (jiiito frights ened me! 1 thought you had spotted Oeorge as some unpunished criminal! It's very good of you to waim me ami all thai, of course. l)ul tho!<e ,sur- miscs of yoursâ€" and I'd rathoi' take them only as surmisesâ€" aren't enough to scare me off." "He isn't a good man, Julia â€" I know lie Isn't." i "Did I ever say he was? I'm not marrying him forlils virtues, but for his position and his income â€"parti- cularly his income; to you I don't mind saying this. Not the man we took him for! But what did we take him for but a quai-ry manager who understand* his work, and with eight hundred n year? Ho remains that, tifiJ'sn't he, even suppo.sing his .senti- ments aie not quite so elevated as you took them to be â€" mercy knows why ? I'll never have such another chance, evf-n if I have another chance at all. What can 1 hope for, now that Feiiella ha.s made mince-meat of tlie family prospects? And after George has Consented to overlook the objection of the relationship! N'o, no I'd be a fool to break now. He'll feed me and house me in the way 1 like to be fed and houed, ansd he won't ill-treat me I'll answer for that â€"for he's the sort who like.s n warm chimney-cor- ner, and I could easily make il too warm foi- him, if 1 chose. Nevei' fear for me, Bertie. I'll hold my own! He'll respect my life, whatever be may do about other people's!" And she laughed robustly »aiid heartily. When iife.s.t morning dawned, a new .Aidloch stood revealed- an Ard- loch of a beauty so immaculate as scarcely to api>car ouite earthly. As though hewn in while marble, the circle i.f hills, illusively vast and illusjvtdy high, lowciej over the loch. FERTILIZER ONTARIO FtRTILIZERS, LIMITED WEST TORONTO CANADA Slate roofs and straw thatch had alike disappeared under beautifully fitting snow-caps; while to the very edge of the water the universal white lay, with no more than irregular bulges to be- tray the whereabouts of the buried sea-weed wreaths. As perfect as this it could not last for a day; but while it lasted it made a picture not to be forgotten by the eyes which looked upon it. Upon that deaxl white afternoon, the minister, walking a little beyond the villagfe, became aware of a canine clamour on the shore below. He looked impatiently in that direction, for the sharp yaps disturbed his train of thought. Ilaving looked, he stood still, and having stood still for a mo- ment, he turned decisively from the rondj and, along a path freshly trod- den HI the snow, approached the spot where Father Grey was struggling with Boxer for a bit of driftwood } which the latter was supposed to be , retrieving, but from which, at the given moment, he found it too great ' a sacrifice to part. Just as Johnl reached the dark line of the shore â€" I for here the li<lc had already been, busy â€" t'he priest Wa.s triumphantly] holding the recovered .slick aloft,! while the dripping beast leaped fran-| tically ai-ound him, with briuht eyes, almost starting: rl'orn its head, and \ deafening hark;; filling the air, and all the other Kyniptoms of canine I lunacy, commonly produced on a| fox-terrier by the combination of a | piece of stick and a Murfute of water.! Father Grey nodded apologetically in John's direction, but it was not un- til the stick had been thrown, and, Boxer, with u spla.sh worthy of a I Newfoundland bent upon salvage! Work, had plunged in after it, that! .speech became possible. I "You find me in difficulties again," | laughed the little priest, wiping: his sandy fingers upon the hem of his! "Cominpr to the rescue, was nut coming to the I wanted to tell you some- 1 soutane, eh?" "No; I rescue . thing." "Ah?" said Father Grey, KlancingI up with a touch of curiosity, for there! was a curious smile upon the minis-] ter's lips, and his voice, too. had about it a ling which the other did not know! how to classi/y . ' "Yes. I havfl come to tell you thati there is now noboby more remaining to cry when I go out to battle," j "When you )fo out to battle?" re-! peateil Father Grey, not comprehend- 1 ing, and tliereforc a little foolishly, j "Yes. Don't you remember telling me a story about the boy who wanted to be a soldier, but who didn't want to found a family, because ofâ€"" ; A flush of understanding passed through the priest's eyes. "Ah- 1 know. And you meanâ€"?" j "Just what I say. There is nobody] remaining to cry over me now. I buried the last of them yesterday." ] For a moment F'athor Grey looked out silently across the water towards the white hills. He was beginning' to understand; and he had clas.tified the tone as one of secret triumph. | "But your duiigliters? Your son?"] "My son has gone out into the world. He does not need mc. He, never has nciMled me, except once. for| one hour. My daughters have noth chosen husbands. One of them is going out of my life for ever, to the] ends of the world." For just one second his voice faltered, and then recovered. "I am glad of it: it is better so. Tlie other will not oe far distant, in body, perhaps; but she has never been near mc at all. She also does not need nu>. On the day they leave my hoii.'ie 1 shall be as alone as though I bad never had a child. That is why I say that there is noboby re- maining to cry over nie. Do you understand at lust?" ".\t last I understand," said Father Grey. Immediately after, and with a rath- er knowing little smile upon his lips, be glanced up into the face of the man so barefaceijly jflorying in his isola- tion . "If that's whore ynu wanted to get to, you haven't taken <|iiitc the short- est cut to it, have you?" Whatever John's answer was it be- came drowned in a fresh volley of barks- for Boxer, wetter and more frantic than ever, was upon them S0U1'.S IVIIN Soups made with milk furnish a wholesome nutrient food rich in food value since they contain all the nutri- tive value of the milk in addition to the vegetables and other ingredients used. The food is In easily digested form and when served with bread and butter furnishes all the necessary food elements for a balanced meal. There is no better way to utilize the left overs of the dinner, the tough parts of vegetables, the water in which vegetables are cooked, and they provide a food of such high value at so low a cost. Soups made from split peas, green peas, beans", lentils or fi.sh are richer than those made from celery, carrots, turnips, potatoes ar asparague, and a chowder makes a good substantial meal. Either canned or salt fish may be used in fish chowder when fresh iish is not available, Tho housewife whose shelves are supplied with cold-pack vegetables has first-class material for nourishing, delicious and inexpensive suups. The proportions for cream soups or soups made without meat are: About one-half as much vegetable pulp as milk or white sauce with the addition of seasoning. If the vegetables used contain a large amount of starch, milk may be used without thickening and where there is water in which the vegetables were cooked an equal amount of vegetable water and pulp is used with the same amount of white sauce. The general directions for making cream soups are: Cook the vegetables in water until they are soft, then press through a coarse strainer and add the water in which they are cooked to the pulp that comes through the strainer. Make the white sauce just before serving time and combine the vege- table pulp with the white sauce after the sauce has cooked up. Do not let tlA; soup stand long before .serv- ing as it is likely to thicken too much. Serve very hot with crackers or bread cut in half-inch cubes and toasted a delicate brown. To make a richer soup an egg, slightly beaten, or a few teaspoonfuls of whipped cream may be added to the soup just before serv- ing. To make the white sauce use two tablospoonfuls jf fat, one tablespoon- ful of flour to each cup of milk and season to taste.- Mix the flour with an equal quantity of cold water or milk and stir until smooth, then add enough more milk to make it pour easily. Heat the rest of the milk in a double boiler (never boil tho milk) and when liot all through add the flour mixture gradually and stir con- stantly as the mixture thickens. Add the butter and seasoning: and let cook ten or fifteen minutes. Cream of I'ca Soup. â€" I pint can peas, 1 pint cold water, 1 teaspoonful sugar, 1 quart thin white sauce. Method same as .stated above. Cream of Corn Soup.â€" 1 pint can of corn, 1 pint cold water, 1 small slice onion, 1 quart thin white sauce. Me- thod same as stated above. Cream of celery, turnip, potato, bean soups all macle same as above. Coin Chowder.- â€" 1 can corn, 2 IncV. cube fat salt pork, 1 slice onion, 4 potatoes, 1 quart milk, 8 crackers, salt to taste pepper. Try out the fat or use drippings in placy of the salt- pork fat. \Ai, the onion to the melt- ed fat and cook until brown. Strain the fat into a large saucepan, add the potatoes cut into half-inch cubes and the boiling water. Cook until the potatoes are soft, then add the milk and corn. Heat to the boiling point, season, moisten the crackers with cold milk and serve them on the top of the chowder. . Fish ( liowder.â€" 2 cupfuls flaked codfish or soaked salt codfish, 8 pota- toes, 1 pint boiling «ratei', 1 slice onion, L'-inch scjuarc- im. salt pork, 1 US MEATS. tablespoonful salt, 1 quart milk, dash pepper, 8 crackers. Try out the f«t or use drippings in its place, add the onion and brown. Turn the fat into the saucepan, add potatoes, boiling water and cook ten minutes. Add the fish and simmer ten minutes, then add the milk, seasoning and heat to the boiling point. Serve with the crackers moistened in cold milk on the top of the chowder. Vegetable Soup (without Meat). â€" ',4 small onion, 1-3 cupful turnips, 1-3 cupful carrots, '/i cupful celery, salt, 1 quart water, 4 tablespoonfuls drippings, IV2 cupful potato, H table- spoonful minced parsley, dash pepper. Wash, scrape or pare and cut the vegetables into slices and prepare them before measuring. Mix the vegetables together omitting the po- tatoes. Melt the drippings in a stew pan, add the vegetables and cook about ten minutes stirring constant- ly so that all brown evenly. Add the potatoes and cook five minutes more, then add the water and simmer slowly two hours, covered. Season with salt and pepper, add the minced parsley and serve very hot. The vegetables may be mashed finer with a fork or chopped very f^ne. « • Canker Worms. Canker worms begin to ascend trees as soon as frost is out of the ground attacking orchard and shade trees, particularly apple, elm, pear, chestnut, hickory, oak, maple, box elder, cherry and plum. The canker worms are the most common of the measuring worm? that loop up in the middle. Spray with arsenate of lead, three pounds to a barrel of water, applied as soon as the foliage is fairly ex- panded and before the trees bloom, with a second spraying as soon as the flowers drop. The first spraying, if well done, will usually be sufficient. Encircling the trees with bands of sticky paper which the female cannot cross will prevent them from ascend- ing the trees and depositing their eggs. Get the bands on the trees this month. Place a band of cotton around the tree and cover this with a strip of building paper six inches wide, over which the sticky band should be plac- ed. A sticky preparation sold by seeds- men, called tanglefoot, may be applied directly to the tree. It is quickly applied and thoroughly effective. • ♦ Clrrant jelly will flavor and color icing delightfully. In the great army camp in Ml«»l«- sippi, the officer In charge of th« school for cooks and bakers inaugurat- ed the "Cut It Thin" campaign. He had the bread knives sharpened, had the bread aliced carefully and cut down the bread consumption in that camp for two weeks, during which careful check was kept, by 61,'266 pounds, making an average daily sav- ing of 4,085 pounds of bread. It not only saved the Government $3,500 in those two weeks but it meant a sav- ings of 240 pounds of flour for the Allies . Needless to say, the bread knives have been kept in ^he best of condition ever since down there. The latest cable received by the Canada Food Board from the British Ministry of Food relative to the situa- tion overseas states that compulsory rationing of meat, butter and fats came Into force on February 25 throughout London i^nd the home counties. It adds: "Fourteen mil- Hon people are now restricted to about 1 ^A lbs. of^ meat, 4 oz. of butter or margarine and H lb. of sugar per iw^eek. By March 25 compulsory ra- tioning of these food stuffs will be univerBal in the United Kingdom.
