Among the Number of coffees on the
market to-day there is one which is
growing in popularity with the house
keepers who have once tried it. This
is the Martha Washington brand, the
secret of it's flavor lying in its per-
feet blend, rather than the kind OF

a big firm, whose mills are located in
Seventh street southwest. near Mary

many of the best grocery stores about
town. Great care is taken in the
roasting. gas instead of steam being
used. and, to insure full value,
every pound is weighed before be

That gentleman bowed stiffiy, and the
scars faded somewhat when he observed
that her hand was extended in welcome.
This unconventionality rather confused
him, and as he took the hand he almost
kissed it She understood the innocence
Of the gesture. and saved him from en-

Then he would return to New York He
had no more right than Breitmann to fall
in love with the daughter of a millionaire.
Loving her was rot impossible, but leav-

lessening the probability. He was not
afraid of Rleitnlann; he was foreigner
enough to accept at once his place, and
to appreciate that he and this girl stood
at the two ends of the world.
And Breitmann's mind, which had up
to this time been deep and unruft1ed, be-
came strangely disturbed.
The time moved on to luncheon. Brett

produced upon him the impression that
she was the sort of woman whose imac-

standing in the chimney itself, he saw a
single brick projecting beyond its mates.
He reached up and shook il. 1t was

back into the light.
