She leaned against the railing, eyes
wide and starry. She was eager Tor
her first glimpse of the ship that was
to take them to South America. Ro.
nance stretched endlessly ahead of
her. She was actually going to visit
far distant lands, and she must get
what she could out of the trip. No
more foolishness. She would emulate
Myra, who always handled things so
well. She must grow up.
There must be no more Quarrels be-
| tween them, either. And II was really
silly to be constantly dragging up the
thought of Tom and Marjorie. Tom
had assured her that everything would
be all right. All she had to do was
to enjoy herself. Well, she would do
it. She would enjoy everything to the
utmost. Then when she returned to
him she would have much more to give
sensible to look at it through Myra' 8
eyes. Myra always knew best.
The little tender chugged its way
through the harbor. The lights OF
Cherbourg, sparkling like diamonds in
the dark waters, began TO dim. They
rounded a point of land, and there
was the ship!
Sally gasped. Even Myra was ex-
cited.
1t lay along the water like a great
floating palace, deck upon deck and
lights everywhere.
A lump rose in Sally's throat. 1t
was really too beautiful. She suddenly
| wanted to hold some ones hand and
squeeze it tight. Myra would laugh
at such a feeling; she wouldn't under.
stand.
II Tom were here-but she checked
that feeling abruptly. She mustn't
be silly.
Sweet. emotional Sally. with the
tears hot against her eyelids. Myra
mustn't see them. She might laugh.
She turned slightly away from Myra
and encountered the eyes of a man
standing beside her at the rail.
Ihey were dark eyes. very different
from Toms candid gray ones. But
the strange part of IL was that in their
depths she read sudden sympathy.
He understood! He really did!
He spoke, but his words were quite
casual.
Rather wonderful, isn't she?'
She nodded shyly, furious because
she felt the hot color rush up into her
face.
She stole an uneasy glance at Myra
but Myra's eyes were fixed on the
liner, and the noise of the engines was
deafening.
She smiled family and he said moth
ing more. But she was conscious of
him there beside her. Interest had
leaped up in her unbidden. He was
sailing on the ship, this wonderful
ship that was to take them to far.
distant lands. Doubtless she would
meet him. They might be friends.
She wondered where he was going
and why. Life was so romantic that
Almost anything seemed possible. She
had lost all sense of reality. It was
like visualizing herself as the heroine
OF a romance.

Nutrition NUGGETS

Remember that there are many diff.
ferent kinds of sugars and that those
found in fruits are best of all. All
fruits contain some sugar, but those
that are richest are prunes. raisins.
dates, figs, dried apricots. bananas,
apples and in smaller proportion,
oranges and grape fruit
We are learning important facts
about food every day. Our grand.
mothers, for instance, We're Mortified
when they found us eating raw car
rots. Today we ourselves are taking
pride in serving salads made of grated
raw carrots and other vegetables.
Don't be afraid to use molasses in
your daily and weekly dietaries. Not
only is this a wholesome and natural
form of sugar which means energy,
but II also contains important mineral
salts for the regulating of the body.
But be sure il is really molasses and
not very refined sugar. Old.fashioned
brown sugar is another good sweet.
A modification of the fruit toast
suggested in another part of this page
is the fruit sandwich. While the
fruit toast is best for breakfast, the
fruit sandwich makes a delicious
luncheon dessert. 1t is prepared by
having two nicely toasted slices of
bread ready for a filling of freshly
stewed or canned fruits. Almost any
small fruit lends itself to such a disn
and its food value Is high. Individual

CHAPTER XVII.
At Sea Again.

nF COURSE, Sally assented. Even
~ if she had demurred Myra would
have probably swept her into it. She
still dominated, because the younger
girl admired her so extravagantly.
And so at the last moment tickets were
changed, and Myra sent cable to

Not that it would make any diff
ference to him, she thought, but 1t
would to Tom, and Bill would, or
course, let him know.
Their stateroom on the big English
liner plying it's way between Ply
mouth and Buenos Aires was much
more luxurious than the one they had
shared on the boat crossing the At
lantic.
1t had little beds instead Of berths,
one on either side of the cabin. and
much more wardrobe space. There
were two portfolios as well, and two
electric fans that could be adjusted
to any angle.
Sally was awed by the magnificence
of the boat.
Their train from Paris had been two
hours late, so that by the time they
were actually on the tender it was
after 8 o'clock.

MARKET PRICES RISE

The price pendulum at Center Mar

bringing its cost down to 80 cents to
81 instead of rs cents to $1.25. Small
lunches are to be had at % and 35
cents.
Lima beans resorted again to the
acrobatic tactics of the Winter. Most
dealers are asking $1.75 a quart,
against 81 charged last week. The
limas, however, are excellent in quail
ity, and should provide a mighty fine
feature Of Sundays dinner.
Mushrooms rose 20 cents to retail
at 70 cents a pound this week. and
rhubarb eaSed UP a little bit to 20
cents for the hothouse variety and 10
cents for the megrown. stalks.
Ioneydew melons, which came on
the market little more than a month
ago at $3.50 and dropped last week to
80 cents, rose again this week to IL.
Another variety of grapes appeared
this week to compensate for the abb

and the black variety sells for IS
cents a pound, while the whites bring
81 pound. Malagas remain at IS
cents a pound.
Most other vegetables and fruits re-
main at their same levels. Potatoes,
which have not changed in months
remain at 25 cents box for the new
and six pounds for % cents for the
old. Sweets, too, are unchanged, sell
ing at four pounds for a quarter.
Although dairy products are quoted
at the same prices this week that
were charged last week, dealers say
that eggs are Tightening up." The
best hennery variety is still selling at
40 and as cents a dozen, however, with
cheaper eggs running as low as 80
