lffetfWf u S c ' EVENING PUBLIC LEDGER PHILADELPHIA", MONDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1910 13 fc?VrV The Testing of Julia Grant By HAZEL DEVO BATCHELOIt CopiricM, J1, 1)1 the Tublle Ltdocr Co. Julia Tells the Man Slio Ixncs the Truth HEAD THIS FIRST A bird In the hand is worth two In the bush, ami after Dan Cnrson discovered that Nancy Cromwell did not want him he went back to .Tulln Grant and mked her to take him back, even though he had jilted her. Julia, who had tried to bury her trouble in hospital work, felt that Dan needed her, and for the second time she promised to marry him. This time, however, die insisted upon flnishinft her hospital course, and all of Dan's persuasion could not shake her oat of it. Then an unexpected complica tion, in the shape of Dr. John Nor vllle, head surgeon, enme into Julia's life. She discovered that sho loved him, and that she had clvcn her promise to another man and could not Break it. NOW 00 ON WITH THE STOUY JULIA sat on the bed and considered after Grace Merritt had left her. There was one thine certain, she could not ko down to Doctor Norville's office. It was impossible to face him again, to face the posslbilltv of the things he might say, perilously dear thingi, that might undermine what strength she hod. If only she could .get away from the hospital, away from him; if she could be alone where she could think. Flight seemed to bo the only thing possible. She wanted to get away that night, and yet the brave thing to do would be to go down to Doctor Nor vllle'"' office and face matters ns they stood. To tell him quite frankly that she could not love him. Julia thoueht she had suffered when Dan Carson had told her he loved some one else, but that suffering was noth ing to what she whs suffering now. She had loved Dan Carson with the dreams of her girlhood, she loved John Nor ville with the trust of her womanhood and there was a difference. She sat and fought her battle there alone, and when it was nil over she had decided what she must do. She would go down and tell Doctor Nor vllle that she did not love him, then she would go to Miss Tully and make arrangements to leave the hospital. It was more than she 'could bear to face the days that stretched ahead of her in the hospital. Once rid of it, perhaps she could face life with a new courage. She would make Dan Carson happy if it killed her, and when she had thrown off her new Independence he would be content at last. It was that independence of hers that had made him so restless and discontented. Once having made up her mind, Julia went directly to the office from which she had fled precipitously only a short timo ngo. She knocked and he opened the door quickly, almost as if he had been waiting for her to come. She did not take the chair he held for her, and she did not look at him. Her fingers were tightly laced together nnd he snoke nulcklv. "You wanted to see me?" He threw back his head and laughed oftlv. "Wanted to see you, yes, I think I did Julia" "Oh. please, you musn't" She turn ed a little away from him. "I came down to tell you something." "Yes?" His voice was emotionless, almost kindly. "I, I, " She began miserably, and stopped. Hq went over to her and took her hands in his. There was not a trace Jf the overmastering passion that had almost swept her off her feet before, in his manner. He was trying to he,lp her. "Listen to me, why, you're nil un strung' she was trembling violently. His ! jidness, his nbsolute unselfishness was more than she expected. She felt a weak desire to cry nnd she was fight- l,j ' 'w j i vJBb f HHHlriHBI -i S"w tfevfrwvt A BABY WINS PRIZE CUP Francis M.

Finally she lifted her eyes to his nndi forced .out her words. "I am going to lenvc the hospital," "Are you? Why?" "Because I am going to be married." There was n tense silence, then he spoke. "When did you decide to leave, to night?" "Yes." "Because of me?" "Oh.'ses, yes!" "Because jou love me?" Once more that exultant note wns in his voice, nnd his tone had deepened unconsciously. "No." she sprang to her feet," I don't love you; please let me go, please!" Again ho wns the physician and he was mixing something in a glass which he' held up to the light and then handed to her. "Drink this," he commanded, mid she obejed him tipping her head into the glass like a little child. "Now, I want you to go right up stairs to bed, and don't think about anything tonight but sleep." His nbsolute control of himself, his ability to master his feelings complete ly was bewildering. It wns almost as though he refused to talk personalities and had dismissed them for the present. "Good-night," he snid brusquely, and held open the door for her. Onlv he himself knew that it had taken nil of his self-control Xo lefher go ns ho had. Once outside, however, Julia lost the feollnir of confidence thnt his attitude had inspired in her. Now was the time to go, she reasoned. If she went to Miss Tully now, she might get nwoy that night, she need not see Doctor Norville again in that case. If she left, everything between them would end definitely.

WILSON'S AIM Food Expert Says Long-Distance Buying and Tin-Can Eating Boost Prices Gives Some Recipes for Delightful Delicacies ''Get the market' habit, reduce the cost of Hying and restore an ancient and honored custom ! The long-distance buying and tin can eating' are bound to raise prices higher and higher, according to Mrs. Mary A. Wilson, food expert for the Evenino Public Ledger, who is giving dally talks to Philadelphia house wives at the food fair in the Tirst Regi ment Armory. "I have bought eggplants for six cents each and heard the grocer tell a housewife over the phone that they were gelling for from tTyenty-five to thirty five cents," says Mrs. Wilson, who recommends the marketing not only as a thrift measure, but also as an inter esting social institution. The indiffer ence of housekeepers in attending to (heir buying results in an accumulating carelessness on the part of the retailer aa to what he shall give, she says. "Why pay ten cents for a lemon that Is polished when one just ns good can bet bought at the rate of three for ten cents a.t another store where no polish ers are employed?" Stresses Thrift Necessity Mrs. Wilson particularly stressed the necessity for more energy being spent on the thrift problem, not only in the matter of personal buying but also in the use of every scrap bought "A great deal can bo learned from the foreigner. Three pounds of meat per month per person was enough for the European before the war, and Americans would do well to eat less of the high-priced meats. Instead of prid ing ourselves on not using the suet on beef, it is time we started to make use of every scrap of meat and fat and i bone.. "It is because the housewife doesn't use suet that lard has risen from twelve -and fourteen cents to thirty and thlrty.- flvej If you eat out of n tin can, the cost of living is bound to go higher and higher." It is not necessary to go without meals in order to 'save money, accord ing to Mrs. Wilson, but considerable more time must be spent by the house keeper in seeing that she gets the full yalue of her money and In making "use of all the food for Which she has paid.
