I'll tell you -- if you carry it off well, if you get invited to that precious dinner afterwards, I'll give you half -- five hundred dollars." Mark shook his head. "That's conditional. Your friend here has given me to understand that I'll fail anyway; be frozen out by the lady. In that case. I'd get nothing -- according to your conditions. I won't go a step unless I get the five hundred down and my clohtes. I've none for the occasion, gentle- men," he added with a twisted smile that the older one caught with some uneasiness. Teddy laughed boisterously. "You're right, old thing; that's fair, I'll put up the stakes and I'll get you rigged out; now, what about it?" Mark looked rom one to other thoughtfully. "One more who's the lady?" "I don't think you've any right to ask yet!" broke in Archie, "I don't go unless I know," Mark retorted tersely. "Oh, come on -- he's got to know!" Teddy said. "It's Mrs. Lynn, she was a Vandevere. Now, do you know?" Mark shook his head. "I'm not the thing up -- in Burke's Peerage." Teddy laughed hoisterously, "She's Burleson's sister-in-law; she receives for him -- Burleson's the millionaire." - Burleson? Mark Grant stared at them. How small the world was! This man had been one of his "dead -uncle's close friends, he had even testified at the trial Archie looked at him curiously. "You know that name?" -Mark nodded; the idea caught "him; to come face to face with his own old world again! But he an- swered laconically. "I've heard it." Teddy was getting anxious.

"That's all, absolutely all, on my honor, unless you hit the bull's- eye and get a bully dinner," said Ted, "and it's five 'hundred dol- lars and your clothes." "Done!" said Mark recklessly. "AIright Mr.--?" Archie looked hard at Mark. "Suppose you tell me your names first," he said coolly. .

Mark hesitated for the twentieth part of a second, but his case was ancient history, these two young fellows would not go back fifteen years; still there might be others --yet he scorned a falsehood. "Mark Grant," he said. As he had supposed, it conveyed nothing. "We'll change it for tonight," Banks said, frowning and trying to thik of a name. "She doesn't care how tough a fellow is if he's got some old name, Dutch, Huge- not, Colonial--some old things' Teddy Banks jumped to his feet and cried; "Come on, we'll go and get the clothes!" The preliminaries of getting clothed, coached by Teddy Banks, and hurried from pillar to post, took up the brief interval before the entertainment, It was late in the afternoon, in fact, when Mark found himself in charge of Archie Landon, on his way to carn the money in his pocket. He had no time to even consider the miracu- lous change from twenty cents to five hundred dollars, but he was aware that--clad like a man of the muster with Teddy Banks, When that young man saw him in the proscribed raiment he had given vent to hilarious delight. "By George, you'll do it--Mrs, Lynn will think you're a prince in disguise!" Then he sobered for. a moment. "I say, who arc you, any- way? You belong to--what's*the saying? -- the clothes-wearing race!" . "It's quite a while since my an- cestors left off feathers and a blan- ket," Mark had replied dryly. "Of course I can take you in-- that's easy," Archie said "tersely, "but Mrs. Lynn won't like it. She likes to be asked ahead and to know who thie man is; it's one of her rules. But that's not the test. After the reception she asks a few, a select few to stay to dinner, Ted's wager is that she'll ask any man in a clean shirt; he swears she - will; T know she won't. She'll prob- ably frecze you at the start. Ted will lose, but you're paid. The because I'm bringng you in un- invited; that's in the wager, too." "Hard on you," said Mark, "as far as I can sce it's up to me to make such a good impression she'll ask us both to dinner.

"Suppose we call it off; I'll give back the cash." Landon shook his head gloom- ily. "Can't! It's made with Banks. I'm in for it, but--" he turned a" hard, cold look on his companion - --"if you trespass on this, I'll" he stopped, something in Mark's look stayed him. "I say," he added hurriedly, "you may be "all right; you look like a gentleman, I admit it, but T hate the whole darned business." "Being a gentleman, I know you do," Mark retorted grimly. "I'd as lief give it up as not, myself." "Too late, we're at the door!" Landon waved his walking:stick toward the long striped caterpillar awning stretched across the pave- ment from a fine house on the corner, "That's Burleson's; Mrs, Lynn: receives for him; he's her brother-in-law, a widower, no children, he's the guardian of his wife's niece, that's all" . Mark said ~nothing, but he 'was aware that Landon 'gave him an- other uneasy look, then they en- tered the awning and fell into line with the guests who were already acsending the carpeted steps; a few were coming out; many were going in. Archie was greeted lere and there as they went up to the wide ope door, He scemed to have many friends; some stopped for a "word, but Mark noticed that he was not presented and smiled a ~ little to himself. But his thoughts were busy; he knew Burleson, had known him well as a boy. Would the great man remember 'the sey-. enteen-year-old lad he had helped send to prison?

So, next time, think before choosing between dessert and po- tatocs, The importance of potatoes in the diet was recognized in Europe in the 17th century when it was discovered that scurvy followed in the wake of potato famines. Many years later it was discovered that scurvy resulted from lack of vita- min C, the anti-scorbutic vitamin, which potatoes supplied. Vitamin C also helps to promote growth, helps in the formation of teeth and in building up resistances to disease. Potatoes are also a good source or iron, the mineral which is necessary for red bood and good health. Without a serving every day it is quite possible that there Avoiding C in Canadian diets, even with a daily ser®ing of citrus fruit or tomatoes. The preparation of potatoes is important in order to retain food value. They should never be soaked in cold water before cooking and should be cooked in a covered pot with a minimum of water. For further retention of nutrients, boiling or baking in their jackets is advisable. Baking is the best method of all, SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON December 31, THE BASIS OF COURAGE FOR THE FUTURE Matthew 18: 13-20; 2 Peter 14-18; I John 38: 1-3, GOLDEN TEXT. Where- fore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not vain in the Lord. I Co- rinthians 15: 58. Peter's Confession of Belief Nearing the end of his ministry on carth, the Lord Jesus Christ ap- proached his disciples with the question "Whom do men say that I am". Many were the opinions as to whom Jesus was. Some thought he was John the Baptist, risen from the dead, while others figured he was one of the great prophets old such as Elias or Jeremias. Then Jesus asked them to express their own opinion "But whom do ye say that I am". Without hesita- tion Peter, acting as spokesnian for the disciples, replied- "Thou art the Christ, the son of the living God." 3: lief had not been true, we know that as on other occasions Jesus would have repudiated it. Instead he said "Blessed art thou -- for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto -thee, but my Father which If Peter's confession of his be- is in heaven".

The Rock upon which the Church is built is. not Peter, whose name means Stone, or part oi a rock, but upon his confession "Christ, the Son of the living God." Divine Origin of Church The Lord Jesus knew he would be rejected by his own people Is- rael, and that the Kingdom of Heayen would thereafter consist in a mystery form. It was to be com- wifted into the hands of men, The Kingdom of Heaven in its mystery form comprises the entire sphere of Christian profession, To Peter were to be given the keys to thé sphere of professing Christendom; namely, knowledge (teaching and preaching) and baptism, ~ ~ The Jews had sufficient testimo- ny in the life of Christ to know who he was, and Jesus charged the disciples not to tell anyone that he 'was the Christ. In Peter's epistle he exhorts the people to prepare for the Day of the Lord. In view of the future event, Peter pleads 'with them to be more diligent in spicitual things, that when the Lord comes they may be found blameless. Peter clo- ses his epistle with the warning to be steadfast, lest we he led away with the error of the wicked. i Children of God i Turning to John's epistle we find a message on the wonderful love of God, the Father.

Dreadful or not, that's what I did. You see Daughter and her friend were here for the week-end and Daughter thought it might be a good idea to stay over and take the 7-40 in the morning instead of going back Sunday night. Her idea met with a very cold reception from-me. I knew who would do the worrying about getting away in the morning; I knew who wouldn't be able to find her gloves at the last minute, and Partner knew who would be required to hitch the team to the car if, by some unlucky chance, the weather should turn stormy and the lane fill in over- night, So Daughter and friend' duti- fully gave up their plans for stay- ing over and took the train. And this morning we awoke to find a wild snowstorm blowing from the east! = * * * Really there are times when members of my own family can even make me mad. There is Daughter, born and raised on a farm, and in her schoo! days quite accustomed to sallying forth one and a half miles to school, often knee-deep in snow, but of course, well protected with galoshes and oversocks -- and now, because she has been away for a few years, has no more sense than to come home with little bits of shoes and no rub- bers. It makes me feel like a mo- ther duck who has raised a brood of - chicks and can't understand why _ they are so different. * * * Daughter was quite well pleased with our migration to the south and after seeing the changes w made she was able to think up/more ways for us to spend money ever dreamed of. And dreamiyg is gard to most of her schemes. Being evening -as far as we shall ever get in"res_ yr ' young, Daughter is naturally an« xious to put the acent on A certain amount of "style," but Partner and I being -- avell, not so young, are more inclined to say "Never mind the style -- give us comfort and warmth and we'll be quite satise fied." Of course comfort and style are not incompatible but it so often happens one has to choose between the two. * * * Well, our other' infant is overs seas -- that is to say, he is in Enge land.
