and lost her.
! A wild surmise struck him. Per
haps he, too, had lost her. Embit
tered precedenta might misguide
her. She d bolted from Dak. Previ
ous to her first marriage her 111
jtreatment ot her aultora had been
notorious.
I Let It be granted that she had
bolted. Whither could ah bolt

"Family at home?"
His father-in-law replied.
"That you, Cllre? I'm at dinner.
Stack your coat and bat"
I He found Mr. Dawn at hla last
course, peeling an apple.
I "Presume you're dined. My wife's
way. I'm alone. Brought Banta
with you?"
Cllre laugbed with all the gusto
of a dying humorist.
"Santa's performed the disappear
ing act. I rushed orer hoping to
find her."
Mr. Daws continued placidly with
hla peeling.
"There used to be aong. I re
call only one Une: The cat came
back.' Fit out a saucer of milk and
there you'll find pretty pussy some
fine morning, purring on your door

Seated In deep chairs, toasting
helr toes before a biasing fire In
tth library, Mr. Dawn grew expan

.recruit, wbo'a conducting this
bomblng-rald?"
I "Santa. She's ruining me for my
own good, ao she tells me."
I Mr. Dawn puffed at hla cigar lux
uriously. "The argument aounds familiar. I
shall re-live my youth In listening
to you. Some woman waa bound to
ruin you so why not your wife?"
I As Cllre finished hla story with
the latest threat ot philanthropy, hla
father-in-law laughed uproariously.
I "What's so amusing, Ouardle?"
"You're the wife In a million."
"I'm aware of that Unfortunate

I "But all her mistakes hare been
prompted by her excesslre lore for

"Then la universal agreement
among food authorit.ee that tha nu

milk are Included In the diet." says
Ada R. Mayne of the Oregon Dairy
council.
"By an 'adequate amount' of milk
Is meant, the standard now long es
tablished after much research and
study, of a quart dally for children
through the period of growth a.id a
pint dally for adults. Milk Is con
ceded to be the most Important tin
gle article of food for tha mainte
nance of health of both child and
adult.
"A question frequently asked at
this time Is 'Does the fact that the
food fund la reduced, alter the rule
of one quart of milk dally for chil
dren and one pint for adults?' Pood
authorities are again agreed that when
the food fund la reduced to a mini
mum, milk still ahould be regarded
as a necessity and should continue
to be Included aa a staple article of
the diet. Dr. H. C. Bherman, noted
scientist, says that In cases where the

one must forego other foods and con
centrate efforts upon providing those
two, supplementing a little of some
inexpensive fruit or vegetable. In
making suggestions for the low cost
diet the U. 8. department of agricul

"Under tha most favorable circum

when every food dollar apent must
bring the greatest possible return In
nourishment and satisfaction, the taak
becomes more difficult. Actual ex

in recent months has shown that
families are greatly benefited when
adequate amounts of milk are used.
This la not only true of the low-cost
diet, for a diet Including adequate
quantities of milk Is desirable under
