Few Foods Return Such High
Caloric Value for the

Sugar Ib an inexpensive food.
Compared with butter, bacon,
macaroni, bread, meati, milk,
green vexetablea and fresh fruits,
sugar supplier the system with far
more calories for each cent spent
than the same amount expended on
any of the rest of the products
named.
This fact is significant because
the average system requires an-
Proximately 8000 calories dally. Of
his amount, sixty per cent should
be derived from the carbohydrate
roup of foods to which sugar
belongs.
To get the full value of sugar the
housewife should consider it in re
lation to all the foods she chooses
for her table. The most inexpensive
balanced meal ran be made satisfy

sert. Canned vegetables, as well as
fresh onea, can be much improved
in taste appeal if a dash of sugar
to a pinch of salt is added while
they are cooking. Breakfast ctreals
and stewed dried fruits have added
goodness when sugar ia added.
Doctors and dietitians approve
the use of sugar in making scien

DnVNMOn. strolling down Fleet
street or his way to lunch, saw
a white-fated ghost of Mary Lou
dasb distractedly out ot a newspa
per ofllce.
His surprise at her agitation ban
ished his resolution to have noth
ing more to tlo with her. Besides,
even with a pale face and fright
ened eyoa, she looked pretty.
"Hello, how are you, Mary Lou 7"
Mary Lou stared blankly at him
Then she blurted out:
"It's too dreadful. Isn't It? But
of course nothing can be done.
That's the awful part of It."
Brynmor'8 eyes opened In aston
ishment. What was she talking
about? She didn't even seem to
recognize him.
"What's dreadful?" be asked so
licitously. "What?" Bbe echoed. "This news
about Tony, of course. Three days
ago Gay Oirl was sighted over Port
Darwin, and since then absolutely
nothing has been heard."
"I'm beastly sorry," he added. "Is
theiM anything I can do?"
She continued to stare at him.
"Why, It's Drynmorl"
"Yes, It's bnon me all the time."
"Forgive me, I'm to upset You
soe, 1 ran down here In the lunch
oon hour from the shop, feeling
sure that Jeiry would have some
news for me. ..." s
"And he hain't?"
She 81109k her head.
"Ilnvo you lunched?"
"Lunched?" sho blinked at him.
Brynmor Icok her by the arm.
"Then you'ro lunching with me,"
be announced decisively.
Mary Lou nllowed horself to be
Icil nliing, but her mind still was

untiling cou III be wrong, but the
vision of possible mishaps con
tinued to worry her.
"Tea." sulci Mar Lou, whon they
woro Buutod In the restaurant, "I
don't think 1 could oat anjthlng."
"You must," Brynmor said. Then,
to tho waitress, "We'll both take
the lunch and China tea for one."
"Toll me about It," Brynmor

She didn't need tho oncourngo
menu "Until these last tow days every
thing has gone splendidly, ,ulto ac
cording to schedule. We've been In
touch with hi in by wireless nearly
all the time. In Calcutta Tony had
a grund reception, lie stayed there
two days on account of bad weather.
Then they called at liangoon. Sing
apore and Batnvla. Gay Olrl was
last sighted over Port Darwin, so
we know for a fact that they did
reach Australia. . . . But since then,
and that's three wholo days ago. we
haven't hoard a word. They can't

She paused bronthlessly.
"I any, that's henstly rotten,"
llrynmor said. "But 1 wouldn't
worry yet. In all probability thoy
had to make a forced landing In
tome out-of-the-way place.
"I Buy. Mary Lou, I hope you've
rorglven me tor what I said about
ritherlnglon last time we met. I
uevor would have snld anything had
I dreamed for a momont that Tlth
erlngtnn and you were serious. . .
ind 1 guess 1 was Jealous. I've
noon hoping to see you to apolo

Mary Lou roallied the effort It
nnd cost him to say what he had.
Ills humble attitude touched her.
"That's all right, Brynmor." Her
olce softbiied.
"Don't think any more about It.
Let's ho friends."
llrynmor swallowed;
"Decent of you, Mnry Lou. Evor
since I saw the announcoiuoiit of
your engngemont I've beon kicking
myself. B t I'm sorry your father
hns such a poor opinion of me. Too
bad he thinks me conceited."
Mnry Lou renllred that hor re
mark at Lorna O ley's party still
rankled.
"Dnd never sold you were con
ceited." she confessed, "1 Invented
that remark when I was so angry
becaus of what you said about
Tony."
Brynmor accepted her story with
a knowing smile, and dismissed the
subject.
"There's something I'd Ilka you
