When they were through, after
three solid hours Of toll, Harper sent
Conrad home ahead Of him while he
counted up the new record. As re-
vised, the book showed over q thou.
sand dollars still due him from Meade
enough to tide him over this desper-
ate pinch In which he found himself.
Musing In pallid.faced selfloathing
over this, his first departure from rec.
titude, he did a thing inexpIicable even
In one OF his careless habits. He de-
stroyed the old book, abstractedly
tearing It up page BY page and drop
ping II in the wastebasket
In the morning came Conrad, and
recognized those scraps at once. On
the table lay the new book where Har-
per had left II the night before. Me-
chanically obeying the memorable logic
Of the situation, Conrad picked some
Of the scraps from the basket and com
pared entries. Every legible word
was damning. Here, on the 18th, was
Turner, on the old book three hours,
In the new book nine. Wright was in
the new book for nine hours on that
date, and In the old one his name was
not written down ut all, for he had
been at work on another job.
Then Harper came In, strangely
shaken, though trying to preserve an
air of easy nonchalance.

Find Cotton Seed Meal
a Substitute for Meat
BY United Press.

College Station, Tex, April 2S.--
Wrecked, war-ridden little Belgium is
thankful to the United States for
many things, but above all for the
information that cottonseed meal Of
fers a good substitute for meat. Such
is tenor Of letter just received at the
Texas experiment station at the A. l.
NJ college. Chemists at this station
were responsible for boosting ,tton-
seed as food.
Texas sent its share of help to the
starving Belgians when, upon advice
of B. Youngblood, representing the
station, it contributed cottonseed meal
instead of flour.
Experts at the station declare the
meal is exceedingly rich in protein,
aud very cheap substitute for meat.
They gave the United States today
the following recipe Tor cottonseed
meal biscuit, which they declared, is
particularly dellcl0uS.
Cottonseed meal or flour, Y cup;
