Tinkie. Just you try those" he said.
 Mir, Grabby and Mir. 7fnkie were surprised when they tasted the ice cream sodas and they each drank seven glasses apiece.

And as they went, they hal a hard time to keep from laughing out loud and awakening the two silly men who had made pigs out of themselves by drinking foo many soda waters.

Breakfast - Strawberries, cereal, thin cream, spinach with poached egg on toast, milk, coffee.
 Luncheon -- Asparagus with but tered crumbs, Cress sandwiches, black cherry pudding, milk, tea.
 Dinner - Broiled lamb chops, creamed new potatoes, buttered spring beans, pear salad, toasted crackers, cammembert cheese, milk, cogee, white bread.
 This breakfast might be classed as a "moderate' breakfast. The man who goes to his office neither will want nor need both the cereal and the egg dish, but the child who is growing and going to school needs the hearty meal
 When 8 fruit salad is served as in the dinner menu, dessert Is not necessary. The cheese and crackers may be served with the salad or as separate course.
 Black Cherry Pudding
 Two cups rich milk or cup milk and 1 cup cream, 5 tablespoons but ter. scant cup sugar. 1 teaspoon grated lemon rind, 1-2 teaspoon nutmeg. IA teaspoon cloves, eggs. i cup sifted toast crumbs. 1 quart black cherries.
 Beat milk and add butter. Beat yolks of eggs well with sugar and spices and lemon rind. Slowly add hot milk. stirring 10 dissolve sugar. Add crumbs and the cherries with the pits removed. Mix lightly but thoroughly. Fold in the whites of the eggs beaten until stiff and dry. Turn into a buttercd baking dish. Put dish on several thicknesses of paper in pan of hot water, The water should reach halfway up the pudding dish. Bake in a moderately

Although tho footprints had been messed over a lot there was one that the police had covered for further examination. Laidlaw found that syd's shoes did not fit this print at all,
 He also had the photograph of the imprint of a woman's hand. which the police had found on the safe, and Ruth, what do you think? They took mine. It was an awful and wonderful feeding at the same time, tried to imagine what would say and do if had really stolen tho jewels, Looking at ths photograph of the imprint on the safe I made discovery.

She was wondering whether the boy Steve had suffered any accidents while he was with you - broken bones or anything like that which a physicians examination would det aet."
 That's just what makes me so sure he's Steve" Mother Graham said decidedly. This mans left handed and so was Steve because he had the bones of his right hand broken when he was a boy"
 Did you see this mans hand ?" asked hreathlessly, my heart sinking at this proof that the dis reputable blackmailing tramp was kin 10 my little son,

Don't think I'm hard-hearted for saying this to you, because I am quite sure that in a short time the whole thing will be cleared up and both Zoe and Syd will be back with us.
 Bill Laidlaw, at Jacks request, came up and went over all the clues very carefully. He carried my or enid nightgown off with him, Said he had man that could tell whether the blood was that of a woman or a man. Isn't that one thing thrilling? I never knew before they could do this.

"Ha!" Raggedy Andy laughed as he and Raggedy Ann brought their scooters to a stop beside a magical ice cream soda water spring in the deep, deep woods. q had begun to think that we should never escape from old Mir. Grabby and old Mir. Tinkie, the two selfish lazy men. Why" Raggedy Andy continued. If they had worked as hard doing their own work as they worked trying to capture us, they would have had all their work done"
 "0f course they would, Raggedy Andy" Raggedy Ann laughed. But then, that is the way with lazy peo- pie. They spend all their time of fering themselves excuses for get ting out of work, while if they could just do what they have to do, and do it cheerfully. they would find that they would not feel a bit lazy. but would enjoy doing their work"
 Raggedy Andy filled two glasses with the lovely ice cream soda wa ter strawberry flavor and the two rag dolls sat upon the soft moss and enjoyed themselves.
 T spect Mir. Grabby and Mir. Tin kie were surprised when they saw us escaping!" Rsggedy Ann said.
 Indeed! They wre!" Raggedy Andy giggled; q looked back just in time to see the long ladder fall 10 the ground with crash, and spect they both got bumped heads too for their trouble"
 You spect just right, Raggedy Andy" It was the voice of Mir. Grabby and he and Mir. Tinkie came walking out of the bushes. You thought that you could es- cape from us when we fell from the ladder and bumped our heads, but we followed the tracks your magic scooters made and now we have captured youi"
 And now that we have captured you, Mir. Grabby can puff the magi- cal forgetfulness powder upon you and make you do all our work" Mir. Tinkie said.
 Rsggedy Ann and Rsggedy Andy did not like this at all and they lried to think of some way to es- ape from the twomen.
 We will ride home upon the ,asgedys magical scooters and rarry the Raggedys home with us." Mir. Grsbby said. Then I shall puff Mrs. wunEle Witch's magic powder 4'n them,'
 I'm very hungry" Mir. Tinkie said. Let's make Raggedy Ann cook d lot of candy covered cookies and ,lourhnuts and everything the first ihing!"
 Indeed! That's just what wc shall dol" Mir. Grabby agreed.
 Raggedy Andy had been thinkin go hard. he ripped two stitches on of the top Of his head. and then h said, Why do you wish to eat cand covered cookies and doughnrt when you can have this lovely ic cream soda wster?"

uH HEAiTH JIGGS' PET DISH IS RULED OUT

Corncd beef and cabbage, a popu- lar dish, especially with the comic strip, is q very poor combination.

 Cabbage properly cooked is de- licious, and food 10 be set before q kind, But often 1t is the victim of bad cooking,
 Cabbage is best in the raw state. II is easier to digest, and also the oils and vitamins are not destroyed.
 So far as proteins, fats. and car

bohydrates are concerned, cabbage
 is worth very little. Its great value as a food lies in It's
 ability to supply bulk 10 inc intes-
 tines, for tho indigestible residue acts as stimulus 10 intestinar movement and helps in correcting constipation.
 Cabbage is rich in sulphur and hydrogen. When cabbage is cooked these are driven out. That is where the odor from cooking cabbage comes from. For this reason alone cabbage should not be cooked.
