an, almost as old now as the mother
they had lost so ninny years ago. He
forgot that he was a middle-aged man
with a grown daughter and a million
or two. He saw himself once more a
strong young man leaving Scotland,
while n red-haired girl clung to him
and cried : “ Oh, Rob, I cannot let
you go I What’ll I do wlthoot ye?"
He reached out Ills hand nnd said:
“ Aggy, I ’m glad to see you. Did I
not tell you that? Except for Roberta,
there’s nobody left but you and me.”
The little woman stooped over,
smoothed his hair and kissed him.
"Dear Rob," she murmured.
lie indlcnted a chair beside him and
she sat down.
"W hat brought you, Aggy,” he asked
her, reverting unconsciously to the
almost appalling directness of the
true Scot, "and who’s that?" He In­
dicated Sir George, who was standing
at the edge of the terrace and looking
oft toward the river.
“ That’s Sir Geordle,” snld his sister
quietly.
"W h a t!” roared Bob MacBeth.
“ Sir George Sandlson,” explained
Aggy, with a self-conscious smile that
Just escaped being a smirk.
"I might have known It,” said Rob
MacBeth slowly. “ I might have re­
membered those good looks. He’s the
same handsome devil that his father
was before him. By the way, what’s
become o f Sir Steenle? Drunk himself
to death?”
"Yes,” said Aggy solemnly, "Just
that.”
"W ell,” nnd her brother gnve her a
puzzled look, "what’s Sir George doing
here?”
” 1 Invited him,” answered Aggy, de­
murely. “ Have you room or shall I
semi him back to the town for the
night?”
Her brother gave her a quick look.
"W hat’s It mean?"
"Nothing," said Aggy stubbornly.
"It’s but natural."
“ Good G— d !" exclaimed her brother,
“ Is anything wrong with him? Are
you still his nurse?"
Aggy looked at him scornfully and
yet a little proudly. “ I am not, and
have not been for many a year. I’m
his stepmother.”
“ W h at!’’ roared the owner o f the
Island, who had been thinking how
best he could In a modest way Intro­
duce to his poor, but proud, sister the
great story o f his success, his millions.
“ Yes," said his sister, with a mat­
ter-of-fact calmness that deceived hei
brother, and then proceeded to spike
all his guns by her declaration: “ I ’m
Rady Sandlson, of Sandlsbrae.”
She kept her eyes away from hei
brother, until she thought he had di­
gested this and then added:
“ I ’m
traveling, with my stepson. Sir Geor-
die.
We thought we’d Jist drop I d
and see you on our way.”
The master of the Island stared bach
at his sister. There wns a consider
able
pause during which Robert
thought hard before he asked: "How
did you manage It, Aggy?"
Lady Sandlson looked at him with
quiet dignity.
“ It’s a long story, bnt It’ll be told
In time, Rob. Are we Invited to bide
the night, or am I to tell the taxi-man
to watt?”
“ Here, Joe,” called MacBeth, “ put
the bags In the hall. Open the door
yourself. There are no servants In
the house. Get the trunks up from tha
station tonight.”
“ Sure-a, alia right,” Joe responded
blithely, and carried the bags toward
the door.
Lady Sandlson waved her hand, and
summoned her stepson Imperatively.
He started toward them.
“ Is he no beautiful?" asked Aggy
proudly.
MacBeth groaned. “ Handsome Is as
handsome does," he countered.
“ Aye,” agreed Lady Sandlson, “ In
the same way that beauty Is only skin
deep, and Guld kens that’s deep
enough.
Sir Geordle, this Is my
brother, Rob.”
"H ow are yon, Mr. MacBeth?” Sir
George asked quickly. "Can I do any­
thing?” he continued as Rob MacBeth
shifted uneasily In his chair and
groaned with pain at even that slight
movement.
"S ir George, you’ re welcome to my
house and everything In It.” MacBeth
paused, thinking with a little awe of
the changes time brings. The last
time he had seen this man was as a
tiny boy, In Aggy’s arms. With a start
he continued cordially:
“ I ’m unable to do the honors. My
daughter Is out and there nre no
servants, temporarily. W ill you go In
and make yourself at home? You will
find plenty to smoke and drink In tha
library. Sly sister has something to
sn.v to me before I ask you to help
me In.”
“ Thanks," Sir George said, hesitat­
ing a little. “ Frightfully good o f you,
I ’m sure. I ’ll leave you to talk over
things, bnt remember I ’m within call
If you need a strong arm." He nodded
to Aggy nnd went toward the door­
way, Inwardly amnsed and puzzled
at this country that could make a
millionaire of Roh MacReth and yet
leave that millionaire alone and serv-
nntless on his Island. But he knew
he wns going to like MacReth. He
was as fine and simple In his way as
good old Aggy.
Rob MacReth gave a long sigh, as
Sir George disappeared. “ Out with i t
Aggy," he said quietly, turning on his
sister. " I remember yon o f old. You
never made a trip all the wny from
Sandisbrae to this Island, without
wanting something. What Is It?”
“ It’s this way, Rob," began his sister.

Every mother knows how hard It
Is to force children to eat the food
they should eat.
The
only way to accomplish
this Is to begin with the
baby. Food and feeding
time will be a happy
time if habits of correct
UfHSlMH eating are formed early.
I| U I The child who has had
1
his own way in all
things Is going to make a difficult
adult to live with or for other people
to enjoy being with.
It takes but
little patience to truln a baby, but
often It Is difficult when the child
has become willful.
All foods given children should be
simple, well cooked, easy to digest
and attractively served. Tasting the
food before being served Is an Impor­
tant duty for the mother or nurse, to
be sure It Is palatable, for often dis­
likes have been formed that are hard
to overcome by one dish of poor food
The following nre a few breakfast
suggestions:
Orange
Honey
Crispy.— I ’eel an
orange and separate Into sections, re­
moving the membrane. Allow six to
eight sections for each serving. Dip
each section into honey and turn over
In rice or corn flakes, puffed wheat
or any of the light cereals which have
been warmed until crisp In the oven.
Arrange on an attractive plate and
serve. Maple sirup may be used In
place of honey for variety.
Breakfast Cocktail.—One beaten egg
yolk, a pinch of salt, a teaspoonful of
honey and the juice o f two oranges.
Beat well and serve cold. This sup­
plies Iron from the egg yolk nnd vita­
mins from the orange Juice. This Is
a good drink to give as a mid-meal.
All the above recipes are equally
good for the nursing mother who
needs to take as much liquid ns pos­
sible.
For n child of six yenrs the addi­
tion of the juice of half a lemon to a
glass of orange Juice Is recommended
to give Increased vitamin C nnd to
prevent nnd cure tooth troubles.
Frosted Orange Juice.— Into a large
glass pour a cupful of orange Juice.
Add a spoonful o f vanilla lee cream
and stir a moment, then serve.

the
lurgest
church bell In the world.
Some authorities declare that this
bell, known as the Czar bell, when
cast In the days of Boris Godunoff,
weighed 135 tons. Others claim It
weighed 198 tons. Its size cun be
Imagined if one considers the state­
ment by H. M. Grove In n book on
Moscow that the bell Itself has done
service as a chapel.
Grove recounts that the bell was
recust In the middle of the Seven­
teenth century and raised into Its
belfry. It had only been there two
years when fire destroyed the belfry
and the bell crashed to the ground
and was broken. There It lay until
1735 when Empress Anna ordered It
to be recast on the spot.
Two years later the scaffold for
reraising the bell caught fire, the
bell became almost red hot, and the
tremendous amount of water used to
extinguish the fire cracked the bell
and a large piece fell out. It was
then left on the ground until 1830
when Emperor Nicholas I had It
raised and placed on a granite ped­
estal where, for a long time, It was
used as a chapel, the broken side
serving as the door.
According to reference books the
world’s largest bell ever actually In
use is also In Russia. It la said to
weigh 128 tons—nearly two and a
half times the weight of the next
largest bell. In Peiping.

I stayed at the best hotel. On en­
tering the dining room for breakfast
I was met by a prim little lady who
asked me where I wanted to sit—at
the 25-cent table or at the 50-cent
table. Tills aroused my curiosity and
I asked what the difference was, and
received the answer that, at the 50-

never wise to neglect those weaken­

and mothers by thousands know
this is easily, safely relieved by

Faithful to Duty
The devotion of Lester Bunch, res­
taurant chef at Modesto, Calif., to
his cookery nearly cost him Ills life
when his kitchen caught fire. His
stove "backfired,” and Bunch called
the fire department. And then, de­
spite flame and smoke, he dashed
back Into his kitchen to rescue a
pork roast that was the enuse o f the
trouble. Firemen found him uncon­
scious beside his stove. When re­
vived his first words were: "Was
the roast burned?”
