carbohydrates are more completely

more digestible than that Of vegetable
foods, while fats are probably less
digestible than most forms Of protein
and carbohydrates.
The structure of most food ma
terials Is SO changed by cooking that
they are more easily chewed and more
readily and thoroughly digested.
Cooking also makes the food more
appetizing by improving the flavor and
appearance. Food which Is attractive
to the taste quickens the flow Of
saliva and other digestive fluids. thus
aiding digestion. Another use Of
cooking is to kill by heat any disease
germs. parasites or other dangerous
organisms the food may contain.

And yet. somehow, It was June that
he visited that day. before he started
upon his other momentous journey.
And June looked very serious. And
presently she led right mp to the
topic.

vaguely.

Then June raised her head and looked

"Are you going to ask Lucille to

''You know, john" she continued.

were always intimates! And 1t was
only because you were going away!
Poor Lucille!"
John looked at her In bewilderment.
"That was the real outpouring Of .
woman's heart, John, !" continued June,
"and l don't think We women change
much. Lucille always felt things
deeply. And when she was with you
she felt that she had to mask Ter

"June!" cried John, catching her by
the arm, do you mean that that was

Ten years before John Hayward had
been poor lad in Staples. Now he
was returning. comparatively rich. to
settle down in the village Of his birth.
And when man does this. II he be
a bachelor, It 10 safe to assume that
the thought of some old boyhood
sweetheart has crossed his brain.
There were two Of them sisters.
June and Lucille Purvis were twins,
and John had been madly In love with
each alternately. Like most men. he
had two natures. One was the nature
of the average man. He liked jollity,
frivolity and good time. With
pretty, flaxen-haired Lucille, he had
enjoyed himself to his hearts content.
But for strain of caution In his
blood, inherited from maternal
grandfather, who was Sc0tchman,
he would have proposed to her at any
of innumerable odd moments.
But John had another side, though
he hid it successfully from the world.
This was a dreamy, sentimental side,
such as the stately June alone could
satisfy. And perhaps this was his, sim
cerest and truest side. But June was
married.
And SO, with lingering thoughts Of
June, he proposed to ask Lucille to be
his wife. Lucille was as jolly as ever,
unattached, and apparently as young
as ten years earlier. Perhaps she was

And LEcille had all but told him she
would.

SOME GOOD HOUSE PLANTS
Attractiveness Of the Home Greatly
Increased by the Use Of Pretty
Flowers and Plants.

Asparagus plumosus Is of the most
beautiful pot plants. The dark green
leaves are lace-like and fine for cut
ting.
Asparagus sprengeri Is for vases,
hanging baskets and brackets. The
branches droop gracefully in long, dell
cate lace-like sprays and are occa'
sionally covered with delicate sweet
scented white blossoms which are sue
ceeded by scarlet berries,
II you have not provided yourself
with hanging basket they can be
had already arranged from the florist.
There is nothing lovelier. Oxalis
bulbs make pretty plants and for best
effects should have been bedded some
time ago.
One OF the best palms and the
quickest growing is the Washington
filiiera. The seeds will terminate rs
readily as corn, and the plant will
stand dust, dry air, lack of sunshine
and general neglect. growing right
along in any situation and with any
treatment that will keep geranium
alive. 1t is q compact grower, well
adapted to the living room and always
ornamental everywhere.
Another choice palm is the Areca
lutescens. Another still as desirable
is the Kentia forsteriana. Palms are
like one OF the family when well cared
for. They are always beautiful, always
useful.
Aspidistra lurida variegata is one
OF the best house plants. Give 1t q
compost Of two parts fibrous loan. one
part old manure and one part fine
sand. It grows slowly, cannot be hur-
ried and will endure neglect and Ill
treatment with the greatest patience.
and will increase in beauty every
year. Pot early In the spring.
