Whole-Milk Flavor

Milk dishes made with Van Camps Milk are
exceedingly rich and savory. Dishes made of
rnilknen's milk cannot compare with them.
Some women think that this favor is due to
something artificial, but it isn't Il IS simply the
favor of whole, rich milk.
Milkmen's milk separates. The butter fat rises
and the solids fall. When that milk gets to the
cooking it is rarely more than q halfuilk-

little water So it brings to your milk dishes the
whoie-nilk favor. When you learn what that
means you viii never cook without it.

Milk Bills Cut in Two

When Van Camps is reduced to the usual
milk's richness the cost will figure about six cents
per quart.
The saving lies in the cost of daily delivery
the main cost Of uilkman's milk. We save that
huge expense.
Then Van Camps saves waste. You have
milk left over. You never run short. You open
a can when you need it, and it keeps till you use
it up.
This saving in cost and the saving in waste
mean a saving of half on your milk bills.

false colors. He didn't say it wouldn't
be you, and he supposed that his friends
would simply hang back for few days,
making no sign, thus giving you to think
that you weren't as important In America
as you'd fancied. He imagined, too, that
the heiress business wouldn't come OF
quite as easily as you expected. and that
altogether you might be a little sobered
down. AS for your trouble with the bank,
we know now that this is what happened
It turns out that Henry van Cotter has
lately become a partner in the bank
which corresponds with yours In London,
and having got Jim's wire about the valet
(probably at the same time when instruc-
tions arrived from the London and South
ern), materially he told his people to be
prepared and not to pay. How could Jim
think of such a thing happening-or that
Mr.. van Cotter and the others would run
about gossiping of what he told them as
a mere supposition? 1t must have been
too dreadful for you at the hotel!-and as
for that Mr.. Milton, I'm sure he is a
horror.
Then, 1t was another contretemps that
neither Jim nor l saw the newspapers at
first. We'd gone off on a motor trip, as
the weather was lovely, and were darting
all about Cornwall and Wales. starting
SO early every morning and not arriving
at hotels till so late at night. that We
didn't bother with the papers for nearly
a week. OF course. the minute Jim knew
what had been going on he wired every
where and wrote long letters of eXplana-
ton. too "a little earlier than he'd origi-
