Upon the processes and the skill used by the
miller depends the quality of the flour which
he turns out.
Because wheat today must be milled according-
to rules fixed by the Food Administra-
tion it does not mean that all flour is alike. To
be fully convinced that there is a big differ-
ence after using other brands order
Full Cream Flour
And note how much better your bread will
be. Good milling is the answer.

"What right hus this niiiu to upset
my home and Induce my wife into 0
public life when her duty is with her
husband and baby?" thundered Mr.
Merrill ns he threw his paper aside
and jumped up from the Morris chuir.
'Hut Alec" his wife pleaded "I'm
Just tired of this (Unity little place und
baby is whining all' the time. Mr.
Curd! has tnnde arrangements for my
first appearance on next Tuesday eve-
nl fig. Mother is coining over In the
.morning to take baby and I shall "man-
age to get Into the city before dinner
and rehearse with Mr. Curdi In the
afternoon."
"My dear girl yon nre making a
blind' mistake In heeding this man's
advice. You will be sol "
"It Is useless" Interrupted Marie
"for you to (ry to alter my nlm.w. for
when my mind is set I mean to curry
It out."
Alec crossed the room and stood In
front of the French window. The moon
lit up his face as he glanced out upon
his acres of golden wheat and corn.
"So Mr. Card! has succeeded at
hint" he was thinking. "Yes his own
Illtle Innocent Marie had been per-
suaded by this mlsernble wretch." All
his happiness was to be ruined his
little cottage all bis newly found joys
and comforts of farm life and baby
what was to become of him? He would
grow up without a mother's love and
ca re.
At length he turned toward where
his wife had been standing but she
was not there. Shutting off the light
he went upstairs. As he passed her
door he stopped l'erhaps at this very
moment she was packing. Would lie
knock? No he mustn't. lie would let
her carry out her plans as she said
and perhaps some day she would real-
ize her fault and come back to him.
The next evening found Marie In a
handsome chamber In one of the most
fashionable hotels of the city. She was
thinking over the events of the day.
She had met and rehearsed with Pro-
fessor' Cardf ns had been arranged
and he hn.l told her of the remarkable
talent she possessed. Never before
had she realized it. As she sat gazing
nt ill the luxuries about her she lie-
had been in partaking or such tilings
that were all so unnatural to her; but
her heart swelling with pride re-
I belled against these thoughts.
Every morning for nearly n week to Kpoll(j XU! 1ftl
she spent with a dressmaker tier
afternoons were given for rehenrsnls
nnd in the evenings she Joined Mr.
Cnrdl in theater parties nnd dances.
The night beforfe her performance she
retired early. These new excitements
were all too much for her and she lay
awake thinking of baby and Alec and
how she longed to be with them now.
The next morning she arose earlier
than usual having spent a restless
night. As she stood before the long
mirror and the dressmaker's skilled
fingers worked busily with her cos-
tume she longed for her bungalow
apron and heaved n sigh of relief when
the garment was finished nnd enre-
fully tucked in her wardrobe. Tha
afternoon she spent rehearsing nnd at
5 dined with Mr. Card!. Seven o'clock
found her very much excited nnd nerv-
ous. Later in the evening Mr. Cnrdl
called to accompany her to the the-
ater. She came upon the stnge her eyes
beaming with success but with nri
aching pnln tugging nt her heart. "If
Alec could only see now how proud
he would be of her" she consoled herself.
The orchestra sounded the chord nnd
Mnrle forgetting her troubles began
her selection:. Her loud voice rang out
clearly and sweetly nnd won tile hearts
of her audience. The applause with
which her first selection was greeted
delighted Marie nnd in the height of
her success she reached for n tele-
gram which n messenger boy slipped
into her hand nnd in nn audible whis-
per she read "baby died this morn-
ing. Alec." The audience looked fronv
one to another in amazement and Ma-
rie fell back In a dead faint.
'
Grandma Merill hearing (he loud
noise on the pinzza. dropped the sauce-
pan of potatoes that she was paring
nnd rushed out to the front door only
to find Marie rubbing her eyes) with
one hand and shielding the bump on
her forehead wIUi the other.
. . and it was only a drenm after
all" Marie was saying ns Alec np-
penred on the scene a few minutes
later. Just then baby began to cry
and Marie was spared the humiliation
of explaining the drenm while all at-
tention was turned to Alec Jr.

IHt VUltt
By HELENA M. KENNEY. j
lllllltlllllllilllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllft
The train rolled ulowly out of tlio
station leaving a girl standing on the
platform. Nellie Windsor was fifteen
years old. Her mother nnd father wt-re
dead rind she hnd no one but Uncle Jo
and Aunt Betty. Uncle Jo had written
her to come and live with him and
here she was. It was fully ten minutes
before Undo Jo came and when he
did he gave her a heurty kiss and lift-'
ed her into the buggy and off they
went. Arriving nt the farm she found
Aunt Betty waiting on the porch for
her and such u dear o'd lady she wiib.
It was then 3:30 o'clock and. the re';t
of the afternoon was spent in unpack-
ing her clothes nnd learning the rounds
of the house. After supper she went
directly to bed because she was tired
from her long Journey.
The next afternoon she wandered
around picking flowers chasing but-
terflies and gathering an apron full
of apples she went down to the little
brook. It was nice and cool cud she
was cn. i.vlng herself when "Hollo."
said a voice. She looked up. but saw no
one.
"I say hullo." a:r:iin came the voice;
this lime it seemed to come from the
tree that was across the brook.
"Hullo yourself" replied Nellie.
"Where are you ':"
"L'p here in the tree" s:ild the voice
"Come down." she said.
"Nope" answered the voice. N
amount of teasing would make th
voice come down. 1; was getting late
so Nellie said: "If 1 cume here tomor
row will you let me see who you ::reV
"Maybe" replied the voice. So Kei.e
scampered u;i the hill and home. 1'
she was not to wee the owner of I
voice tomorrow for when she got i.
the next morning. It was raining.
Uncle Jo came in at dinner Ilea
with an imitation for Nellie to speno
the itfternoon with the llrowns. who
lived across the field. Slowly she went
upstairs to dress sorry Localise sin
could not ;;o down to the brook l;U!
maybe it would be 'here some olhei
time; ao with this happy thought In
mind she was soon ready and Uncle
Jo took her over to the Browns. She
was rath'.T shy. being among strangers
but Mrs. Brown soon put her at ease.
Molly Brown was Nellie's ng". and
they took to each other rigli nw.'.y.
While they were sitting talkifig about
nothing in particular the doorbell
rang and Molly's mother went and ad
mitted five young people who had come
n. Soon a boy
about a year older than herself came
in und was introduced as Billy Brown.
What a good time she had und what
nice girls nnd boys they were! But
Billy where hud she heard that voice?
The afternoon passed all too quickly
nnd when the guests rose to go Mrs.
Brown shook bauds with them all and
so did Molly and Billy When Nellie
arrived home she could not help think
ing what a nice boy Billy was and
she blushed when she thought how he
had given her hand n tiny unneces'
sary squeeze.
The days that followed were the
happiest ones she had ever had. Long
rambles with Molly and the Tucker
twins picnics and often she would
go for long walks with Billy. Sim
liked Billy very much and Billy liked
Nellie. But she did not forget the
voice. Kvery day she would go down
to the brook and talk and talk witli it.
She would tell it of the nice times sim
was having and went so far as to tell
It of Billy. Thus two weeks passe!
on und Nellie thought she was nevor
going to see the voice when one day
the voice told her that she would see
It tomorrow sure. To be sure Nellie
was there at the appointed time and
the voice suid: "If I come down will
you promise to (live mo otic thing?"
Wondering what it could be but cu-
rious to see the voice as she hail call-
ed it she readily said "Yes." It slid
down the tree and there stood Billy!
"You you ?" she gasped. Billy
smiled and said "Your promise." She
was so surprised she did not know
what to say. At length she said "What
do you want?" '
"A kiss" ho replied.
"Oh h !" and she turned to flee up
the hill but Billy like a Hash caught
her. It was useless for her to try to
get away even if she wanted to. .
