Grauel Educating the Grocer Mayor Mitchell of New York City has a food supply committee working under his direction in an attempt to discover ways of securing food for less money or, in other words, to reduce the high cost of living. One of the first messages this com mittee sent out was that food purchased in bulks was from a third to one-half lower in cost than carton goods. They expected that women would boycott package goods in favor of bulk articles and that food prices would come down at once. But their message was not news to housekeepers who know well enough that they must pay for fancy packages and the extra of pack ing them and all. For twenty-five years .Public Opinion has been schooled to avoid contam inated foods and for longer than that the public has tried to educate grocers and manufacturers; all persons who handle foods in fact, to be cleanly. But education is a matter of slow growth. So the housekeeper, in self-defence, unwillingly pays a high price for foods that are protected in air-tight pack ages. That all package goods are sanitary is hot true but they are convenient to handle and to store in the home larder and they appeal to the eye as the best to be had. The New York Food Supply Committee say plainly in their report that factories must be inspected .'is well as groceries and markets, and that sometimes manufacturers are as uncon scious as retailers. They urge women to remember that they hold the remedy for high prices in their own hands, market reports are published for everyone to study and if a store displays food in unsanitary ways it is a woman's pre- MO J A Spend an evening at home with MOJA all Havana quality and dis cover how a few can thoroughly sat isfy that craving for a rich, full bodied quality that the same money's worth of nickel cigars could not satiate.

Shortage in weight is another im portant item to consider; the scales are not always to blame, cartons are fre quently too heavy, very often sacks and holders that are unnecessarily thick are used. A pair of scales in the home will tell plainly when a purchase is light weight. New York's mayor is not trying to discriminate against package goods in this investigation, as some persons claim, he is only telling positive facts regarding prices of foods to families who have not had the matter explained. The manner in which this knowledge is being disseminated is interesting; it is being sent, in the form of recom mendations, to the public school pupils of the great city, the children carry the message of economical buying into their homes. "And a little child shall lead them." QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS "I cleaned some light Hangings'with gasoline and the dirt came out but there is a ring where the spots were that looks worse than in the beginning. What can I do?" Reply.—Wet the rings again with gasoline and lay dry salt on the places and rub it gently; let the gasoline evap orate through the salt and the -ringed marks will disappear. These rings show there was water in the gasoline. . « * "Can you tell me how to brighten the varnished parts and the top and leather seats of my twins' cab.—Mother."" Reply.—Mix one pint of boiled lin seed nil with a pint of cider vinegar and let stand over night; shake well and apply with a sponge. It will not be necessary to rub hard and you will be pleased with the result.

In my heart there was the memory of a dozen kisses I had bestowed i in repentant horror upon the half i asleep Rosemary, who. God bless her | little soul, cried bitterly on being tor away from my embrace. "Well," said Billy Smith, taking me j by the arm a few minutes later, "let's have a bite to eat and a cold bottle before we go to bed. old chap. I hope to heaven sbe gets through all right. I am strong for her, aren't you?" "I am," said I. with conviction, com ing out of a daze. He led me off to a cafe, where he seemed to be more or less at home, and where it was bright and gay for him, but gloomier than the grave to me. .••e • • • e I drove the car home the next day. When be got down at the garage. Brit ton shivered and drew a prodigious breath. It was as If he had not breath- , ed for hours. We had gone the dis tance In little more than half the time taken on the trip down. "My word, sir." was all he said, but there was a significant tremor in bis voice, it smacked of pride. Mrs. Titus placidly inquired bow we j bad got along and appeared quite re-1 lleved when I told her we hslf uaugbt the train at K. Jasper Juulo? reveal ed a genuine Interest in the enterprise, but spoiled It all by saying that Alice, now prematurely safe, was most likely to leap out of the frying pan Into the fire by marrying some blithering for- ! eigner and having tbe whole beastly business to do over again. "How soon do they go?" asked Poop endyke late that afternoon, after lis tening to Mrs. Titus' amiable prophe cies concerning Aline's future activl-, ties and getting my harassed ear In a moment of least resistance. "I don't know," said I hopelessly. I' had beard about all I could endure con cerning his lordship's magnificent es tates In England, and the sort of a lord be was besides. 'There's nothing to do but wait. Fred." "She Is a remarkably fine woman, but"— He completed the estimate by shaking his bead, trusting to my intel ligence, 1 suppose. We waited two days for word from tbe fugitives. Late In the afternoon of the second day Britton returned from town with a telegram for me. It said: Cargo safely aboard Pendennla, Captain Pardee commanding' Clear at 2 today. Everything satisfactory. C. G. RAFT. No sooner was tills reassuring news received than Mrs. Titus complacently set about having her trunks packed. The entire household was In a stew of activity, for she bad suddenly decided to catch the 8 o'clock train for Paris. I telephoned to reserve accommodation on the Orient express from Vienna and also to have It stopped at the town across the river, a concession secured at a no inconsiderable coat She was to travel once more as my mother. "You will not fall to look as up wtM*n you come to New York, will you. Mr. Smart? Mr. Titus will not be happy uutll he has expressed to you in person his endless gratitude. You have been splendid. We shall never forget your kindness, your thougbtfulness, your— your forbearance. I—I" Upon my word, there were real tears In the dear lady's eyes! ' "I forgot and forgave much In recognition of this In stant of genuine feeling on her part It was not necessary for her to com plete the sentence so humbly begun. •Their depnrture wu made with some degree of caution, Mr*. Titus rather conslilerntely reminding herself that my Interests were at stake. I saw them aboard the train. She played her part admirably—l will gay that for her. She lifted her veil so that I could be stow a farewell filial kiss upon her cheek. Jasper Junior's eyes popped very wide open at this, and as be shook my baud warmly at parting be said: "You are a wonder. John—a sure enough wonder. Why. hang It all, she doesn't even let dad do that." ' But Jasper Junior was very young, and he couldn't understand. At last we were to ourselves, my ex tensive household and 1. l,ate that night 1 sat in my study considering tbe best means of reducing m.v staff of servants and In computing, with din, may. tbe cost of being a princely boat to people who had not the least notion what it meant to do sums In economic subtraction. It was soon apparent to me that retrenchment, s(ern and re lentless, would have to follow upon my wild though brief season ot profligacy. 1 decided to dismiss the scullery maid. I was Indescribably lonely. Poopen dyke was worried about my pallor, my lassitude. At the end of a week he took It upon himself to drop a line to the Hazzards. urging them to run out for a visit in tbe hope that company might take me out of myself. All at tempts to renew my work on the 111 fated novel met with utter rallure. The power of mental concentration was gone. I spent most of my time in the garden. The Hazzards came and with them the Joyously beautiful Betty Billy. Poopendyke must have prepared them for the task in band, for they proceed ed at once to transform the bleak, dreary old castle into a sort ot hilar ious merry go round, with me In the very vortex of It all. They succeeded In taking me "out of myself." I will say that for them. My spirits took an upward bound and, wonderful to re late. retained their altitude In spite of all I could do to lower them. I did not want to be happy. 1 figured that I owed it to my recently aroused tem perament to be permanently unhappy. But the wind blew another way, and 1 drifted amiably with It, as a derelict drifts with tbe currents of the ocean, but preferably with the warm gulf strea m. We bad word from Mrs. Titus In London that negotiations had been re opened with the count and that a com promise might be expected. The ob durate nobleman had agreed. It seem ed. to me"t Jasper Titus' lawyers In Paris nt no distant date. My chlo# concern, however, was for the countess herself. That she had successfully reached the high seas was apparent: If not. the newspapers, which I read with eagerness would have been flllec wltb account* <jf her seizure We eagerly awaited promised cable gram front New Yoi't announcing her safe arrival there. Smith Joined us at the end of tbe week. 1 nerved mysel* ?o question him about the Englishman. "Splendid fellow," said he, wltb dis couraging fervor; "one ot tbe Hnest chaps 1 know. eh. George?" "For an Englishman." admitted Haa wtrd. "He's a gentleman, .nnd that's more than yon can say for the tagtng of no bility that paid court to Aline Tar ttowsy. He was in love with her. tat I he was a gentleman about it. A thor oughbred, I say." "Good looking?" I Inquired. "Well, rather—the sort of chap worn- i en rave about. Ask Betty. She was ' mad about bim, but he couldn't see j anything in her. I think she bates him | now. He bud eyes for no one but tbe j fair countess. An awful grind on Bet ty. She's used to something different." ! Haz/.ard studied the clouds that drift- j ed over our beads. "I wonder if Aline j cared anytbing for him." "I've always believed that she liked him better than she cared to admit even to herself." "I fancy he'll not let any grass grow v under his feet now that she's free,'' said Dr. Hazzard. "Think she'll have him?" "Why not? He has a much better position in England than Ulrnowsy has here, and he's not after her money. I hate to say It but Aline is a seeker after titles. She wouldn't be averse to adding 'your ladyship' to her collec tion." "Ob, come!" I protested. "That 1s a nast.r thing to say, George." "She may have been regenerated," he said obligingly. "You know her bet ter than I do. old chap. What say?" "I didn't say anything," I muttered. "I thought you did." I hesitated a moment and then purg ed myself of the truth. "As a matter of fact. I have reason to believe she's In love with Amberdale and has been for a long time. I'm not saying It In disparagement, believe me. God knows she's entitled to something decent and fine In the shape of love. I hope he's good enough for her." THRILLS AND WONDER Every page makes one gasp, pause and wonder. Why ? Because of the intrigues, the enormity of the whole gigantic mistake, the hosts of men killed and homes impoverished, the hardships endured. Men fight from the sky, on every ocean, under the sea and over the area of seven of the greatest nations in the world.
