HEALTH
IS the
Most Important

In buying food-articles, you must con-
slider several things: Economy, Results,
Easy Handling, Reliability; but the most
important is Health.
Health means everything. In clothes,
furniture, etc., if the buyer gets poor or
imitation article, the only harm is loss Of
money. In buying food articles, if ini-
tations are supplied, there is d loss Of
money, and probably an injury to health

AS the fOotman turned to come down
had held Miss Mallory leaned back in
the victoria with sigh Of relief. 1t
had been long, tiresome afternoon,
but she had used her last card now.
and, these people being fortunately
out she would 60 home and forget
her thoughts, for somehow Roland HUI
mason had been much in her mind late
ly. Strange that after three years Of
absence the recollection Of his cfear
dark eyes and clean cut features should
finger thus vividly. And again Miss
Mallory sighed.
Why had he gone so suddenly and
sent no word? Looking up to give the
order for home, the girl suddenly be-
came aware Of woman standing but
a few feet away with gaze hungrily
fixed upon herself. AS their eyes met
thu woman came slowly forward.
will you lend me $5?" she asked alb
ruptly. The voice was sweet and we'll
modulated, as Miss Mallory noted
through her surprise. Nor did the wo-
mans appearance suggest that Of
beggar. The girl hesitated. She had
always been cautioned not to give In
the street. "1ndiscr1minate giving is
the ruin of many" was her fathers
dictum. Yet in this case there was
curious, half wild look in the woman's
eyes, as though she were enduring
some strain almost beyond her strength,
and Miss Mallory felt her sympathies
quicken. Roland Humason would give
his money. He never refused to help
a woman even while he laughed at
himself for a credulous simpleton.
Swayed by an uncomprehended i'm
pulse, the girl pulled out a crisp five
dollar bill.
"Take It," she said gently. Into the
tired face opposite leaped light Of
wonder, almost fear; then the tense
lines relaxed
THANK you" was the simple re-
sponse, but Miss Mallory could feel all
that was compressed into the words.
II will send it back. You shall see.
But you must give me your name"
More to humor her than from any ex-
pectat1on Of receiving the money Miss
Mallory glanced into her cardcase. It
was as she thought Her own cards were
all gone. Hastily pulling out one Of her
fathers cards, she scribbled her name
and address on the back and held it to-
ward the woman.

nod to the expectant footman, who
