Evelyn was instructed to advise the

knew that the mere mention Of his
name would bring results that hers
would not.

Jerry felt we'll pleased with her
self. She was going to drive down
after all, and Alester had no rea.

through a hoop for him at the snap
Of his fingers.
They had q delicious luncheon
of squad en- casserole and q froz'
en- dessert. Jerry looked very smart
in her plain blue dress and tight
black hat. Alester had checked her
old sports cost and she'd pinned
the orchids on her shoulder. Not
a few people stole frequent glances
at her animated countenance
Jerry tried to forget Dan Harvey.

Then after bidding goodby to the

soon. She didn't want her to bear

Bananas-Melba Toast
Question:: Mrs. o. C. asks:
"What about bananas? l have
never seen them mentioned in your
column. And Melba toast--can it
be eaten with meat or eggs as

you tell me what causes a jerking of
my flesh all over my body? Worse
at times than others, twitching as

should surely have diagnosis made
SO that the cause may>b be ascertained.
