The interview was naturally an en-
barrassing one, but Roger Lewis had
never had a moments doubt of the
result. He was a young lawyer, with
a good practice; his antecedents were
irreproachable. And old Andrew Ban
mister was gentleman.
Roger was therefore hardly able to
believe his ears when old Andrew curt
ly refused his permission for the en-
gagement.

time, sir" he thundered. And l

CARE WILL PREVENT

Scare Is the most important factor
In canning" says Miss Alice 8. Hick-

Ut "If directions are carefully fol.
lowed, and the jars, cans and rubbers
are properly sterilized no fruit or veg
etable should spoil in the containers.
Absolute cleanliness in all the uten-
sils used for canning and in all the
surroundings is essential for complete
sterilization
ITO sterilize Jars, wash thoroughly
and fill them with cold water. Place
them on a false bottom, made of straw
or wood in the boiler, to prevent the
jars from touching the bottom of the
boiler Pour cold water around the
Jars and heat gradually until the wa

Amy began to weep. She left the
room and thought her problem out.
And it seemed to her that her first
duty was to her father. Roger and
she were both young; she was an only
| child, and her father loved her in his
way. He had had a hard life until
late years. These had always been
unfulf1lled hopes which had tormented
him He had lived a narrow, straight
cut life. He had made bitter sacrifices
to duty. In the end Amy wrote to
Roger, telling him that their engage
ment must be postponed until she was
able to bring her father to reason and
discover where the trouble lay.
But she pined all that summer, and,
once or twice, meeting Roger in the
street, she was hardly able to resist
his entreaties that she consent to an
elopement. Her father, too, was grow
ing stranger than ever.
At last Roger called at the house
again. He went straight into Mr.. Ban
